Stunning Photos, Great Customer Service

We can't say enough good things about our experience with Zackariah and Larissa. From the beginning conversations we had via email, Zackariah took interest in who we were and our story and listened to what we were looking for. He never put any pressure on us to make a decision to hire. He just told us to choose who we thought were the best fit, and we knew it was Folk and Lore. We chose to do an engagement portrait session with them prior to the wedding and loved how relaxed and comfortable we felt around them. No posing in uncomfortable positions...just us being us. Exactly what we were looking for!

Leading up to our wedding, Zackariah was always very responsive to our emails, giving us his thoughtful responses and suggestions without any pressure to do things a certain way. He was very flexible to our desire for some posed family portraits for the wedding and accommodated our timeline and request for extra photo coverage.

When the day of the wedding came, I had no qualms that we were in good hands. Minimal posing once again...just us being us and Folk and Lore capturing the moments. We barely noticed their presence throughout the ceremony and reception which was exactly what we were looking for.

Following the wedding, Zackariah touched base with us about the timeline for receiving our photos and updated us throughout the entire process. The end product was just AMAZING!! There were so many pictures that we had no idea had happened with our guests that Folk and Lore had flawlessly captured. The vivid colors, heartfelt moments, unique angles, and stunning techniques that Folk and Lore use are a reflection of their true artistry. They are truly worth the expense if you are looking for beautifully captured memories, excellent customer service, and a stress-free photography experience!

We used Zackariah from Folk & Lore for our wedding at the end of May. He was so easy to work with leading up to the big day. He helped ease my bridal jitters with quick replies to all my questions and did every thing we asked on the wedding day, from traveling to multiple locations to snapping all of the photos we asked for. The photos turned out better than we imagined they would. So many special moments were caught that we didn't even know were happening! We still get emotional looking at them!

I could not be happier with Folk & Lore and their stunning photography. Zack Cole of Folk & Lore went to great lengths to document our wedding. He sweated through an unusually warm late spring day in the South, battled pop-up thunderstorms, and even biked with us from the ceremony to the reception. I am so thankful that we have these mementos that will take us back any time we want to relive that day.

Folk & Lore did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! Zack was so easy to work before the wedding and made me feel at ease while taking photos. My wife and I wanted a photographer that could capture the fun and excitement of our wedding while also getting the must have shots, and we were amazed at the photography that Zack delivered. After looking through the Folk & Lore portfolio and having a conversation about what we wanted I was sure that we had found the perfect photographer. Our wedding photos turned out great and we couldn't be happier!

Folk and Lore was wonderful to work with. Our photos are gorgeous! We really couldn't have asked for better photos. They were professional and efficient, and also listened to what we were looking for. Great price also for the quality of service and work! Emma did our photography and she was wonderful to work with, and captured all the photos we could have wanted in much less time than most photographers ask for. Highly recommend!!

Folk & Lore was amazing to work with. Our photographer, Zack, was fantastic from the the very beginning. He was so fun to work with! He kept in touch before our wedding and was always prompt at answering any questions I had. He stopped by our venue spot the day before the wedding and scouted everything out so he knew where the good shots would be. The day of the wedding he was on time and very easy going. He rolled with our schedule and stayed until the very last dance. The photos he took are beautiful and exactly what I wanted. Folk & Lore was worth every penny. We will definitely be calling on them in the future for anniversary pictures.

Zack and Larissa started put as our engagement photographers. After we saw the photos we knew they were the ones to shoot our wedding. But would they travel to northern Alberta?.........oh yes they would! They captured our day to perfection. Not only do they show their style but they tailor to the bride/groom to make each wedding a little different. And don't even get me started on my stunning wedding album they designed! I can't say enough good about these two and MMP! I have them to thank for the wonderful memories in beautiful print.

Zack and Larissa are a fantastic photography team! They captured beautiful (and fun!) memories from our wedding which we love to look back on and show off to friends and family. We've had endless jealous comments how great our photos are and how they captured not only the wedding details, but also how happy we were together on such an amazing day. We both felt super comfortable with them taking photos, and they had great suggestions for photos that were truly unique and still make us laugh! Next time we need skilled photography for an important event, we will definitely be calling up Mighty Mighty Photo!

Mighty Might Photo was AMAZING! They have a unique touch to such a predictable event. WE LOVED THEM! I love having the photos of my wedding party in such a creative light and not just another picture of a wedding party at a golf course... exceptionally talented and worth every penny.

I was just looking through our wedding album (nearly a year later) and couldn't be happier - out of all of our friends that got married last summer we definitely have the best pictures!!

Zack and Larissa were great to work with - fun, responsive and up for anything! They flew out to Denver the day before the wedding and did an absolutely fantastic job - we might just have to invite them back someday to our family pics!

The album that comes with your wedding package is beautiful - it's officially our coffee table book and is amazing!

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Folk and Lore was excellent to work with. Their photographer was extremely flexible and managed to get through the shot list during a very tight schedule. They also have impeccable customer service. We can't wait to work with them again!
