Authentic Collective is definitely the best wedding photographers you can find – so look no further!

Savannah and Greg were absolutely phenomenal! Authentic Collective is definitely the best wedding photographers you can find – so look no further! If you love their portfolio as we did, you can book them with confidence and never look back! They have perfected the art of true professionalism while making the experience so fun and warm feeling. They really make any photoshoot feel like you are hanging out with two long-time friends, which makes the experience so much fun and allows you to fully relax. Never once did we feel like we were doing a stuffy photoshoot with two cameras present. Like many 2020 wedding couples, we had to reschedule our wedding, and one of the main criteria for us was keeping them (we even switched our venue).

Their website is great for all forms and information needed during the process. They are quick to respond with any answers/updates/changes you might need. The shot list ahead of time is great to have done, as it covered everything we were looking for, and they are awesome at catching any moments that pop up organically during the day.

They are so patient when it comes to posing, as we were new to the process. They are kind, patient, direct and clear in their instructions. It takes away the anxiety of doing posed photos, and the finished product is truly amazing. All of our photos look so natural and candid!

One of the major things that drew us to A.C. was their editing, as it didn’t look like every stock wedding photographer. The finished product did not disappoint! We absolutely love our photos, and you’ll find your biggest issue is choosing what photos to get printed afterwards. Too many awesome choices!

During the wedding and reception, they do a great job of blending in, but never miss a moment or great shot. It honestly felt like we had 2 good friends at our wedding who happened to be capturing our memories with cameras.

Run don't walk

Savannah and Greg are phenomenal photographers. They put so much work into making sure the lighting is right, finding locations that have amazing backgrounds, and they are professionals at helping pose couples in a way that creates beautiful photos and still feels authentic. They captured our wedding day perfectly, we can feel the magic of the day when we look through our album, as if we are still there. Their style is so specific and real, they capture the emotion and the scene perfectly. They also help with planning for the elopement, its great the amount of knowledge they have! We eloped in Yosemite and they were experts there, they knew exactly what time to have the ceremony so that we could avoid traffic and get great lighting, they knew how to make the timeline work so we could get all the amazing shots as well as spend ample amount of time with our guests. There were several moments that they went above and beyond for us, Greg would literally carry me over piles of snow on mountains and helped put on my veil before the ceremony. Savannah would call Yosemite to secure my permit when I wasn't getting a response and she helped us pick our location of where to elope by doing research with us. On top of that, they are great & fun people. Both times we shot with them we felt as if we were talking to friends the entire time. If you want to have a micro-wedding/elopement, Savannah and Greg are the best at it!

We love Savannah and Greg!

Savannah and Greg are the best in the game!! They put so much time into the entire process. Scheduling phone calls, working with the wedding planner, through questionnaires, down to a detailed photo timeline to make sure you get every shot you want. We were nervous to have professional Photos taken, but Savannah and Greg made the whole process fun and comfortable. We were a wedding of two brides with our own bridal parties. They booked assistants and captured each of us equally. And the video was amazing! Their ability to capture the special moments and somehow compile the most important parts of our day into a 5 minute video was truly perfect. We recommend them to anyone!! They are the absolute best.

Hiring AC was the best decision for our wedding

I can't say enough about how thankful we were to have Savannah and Greg a part of our wedding, and more specifically responsible for one of the most personally important aspects of the day! We immediately noticed the quality and novelty of their work prior to hiring them in early pandemic days, and they were so patient and understanding when we were forced to postpone. Our engagement session not only gave us photos and videos for which we'll be thankful for a lifetime, but their approach and personalities made us feel so comfortable and confident, laughing, joking, and enjoying, that the session felt like a moment that renewed the excitement that we had lost in postponing! When it came to the big day, Savannah, Greg, and their assistant brought such warmth, intention, and laughter to every moment - they truly added comfort to the whole day. Our family and friends commented on how genuine they were and how they could tell they were capturing every sentimental moment - and our pictures and video showed the same. They were candid, gorgeous, comprehensive and captured our hearts in ways we didn’t know was possible. Hiring Authentic Collective may have been one of the single best decisions we made for our wedding. They listen, they respond, they care, and they are so talented at what they do. Now, I just wish we had another reason to hire them!

October Wedding

Savannah and Greg did an amazing job photographing our wedding and we can't recommend them enough. It's hard to say what the highlight was of working with Savannah and Greg as the experience was all around fantastic. From start to finish Savannah and Greg were extremely responsive, professional and easy to work with. They made the experience as smooth as possible and the results were incredible, our wedding photos were more than we could have asked for. Book Authentic Collective for your wedding/engagement photos, you won't regret it!! Thanks Savannah and Greg!!

Book Them NOW

We absolutely loved having Savannah and Greg photograph our wedding. They were so easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera! We had them booked for two years prior to our wedding and they checked in with us regularly to see if we had any questions about the wedding planning process in general. They were extremely organized and made our many formal pictures a breeze, but also took their time in the moment to make sure they got the perfect shots for our first look and newlywed photos. All of my family and friends say that our wedding pictures are the most beautiful wedding pictures they have ever seen, and it's all because of Savannah and Greg. Thank you for pictures we will cherish forever, we can't wait to get them on the walls!

Masters of their craft and simply the best!

Savannah and Greg are absolute masters of their craft, and words cannot express how happy and satisfied we were with our experience. Their professionalism, technical skills, aesthetic, and contagious good vibes are unmatched in the industry! Their work speaks for itself. Just look at their portfolio!

Like many couples, our wedding details kept changing due to COVID. However, Savannah and Greg were so gracious and patient in the planning process and were willing to work with us to find the best fit for our vision. By the time we booked our package, I felt so relieved and knew we were in good hands. They take their time to do research in terms of scouting locations and really getting to know each couple in order to offer a tailored list that is unique to them. On the day of our event, everything was seamless and they made each person (and pet) feel comfortable. Our package included an Adventure Session, and that was our favorite part because it was so intimate with just the four of us. We had a blast hiking, shooting, and just getting to know one another. We felt like we were friends by the end of the session.

You seriously need to book Savannah and Greg for your next event. You can be sure we will be asking them to capture every important milestone for us moving forward!

Absolutely Amazing

Greg and Savannah were nothing short of amazing for our destination elopement!! They were supportive and open for communication from the beginning and helped us through the wedding planning process the whole time! They both made sure we were comfortable and prepared on our wedding day and we ended the day feeling less like clients and more like close friends ☺️ We would recommend Savannah and Greg to anyone and everyone!! Our photos came out AMAZING - each one like a piece of art. Their quick turn around time was the cherry on top of the perfect wedding experience. Thank you Greg and Savannah!!!

Perfection!

Savannah and Greg are AMAZING. If you are looking for a wedding/elopement photographer, look no further! The moment my fiancé and I spoke to them on the phone, we knew we wanted to hire them. They are so genuine and you can immediately tell they have a passion for what they do and care to make a true connection with their clients. They are so organized too! We’ve received so much helpful information from the two of them in regards to our engagement photos and wedding plans it has completely been above and beyond any expectations I had. And how about how talented they are!! I mean you scroll on their website and see their amazing talent, but when you receive the photo gallery of yourself it’s immediate CHILLS. My fiancé and I have never gotten our photos taken before. We were nervous to look and feel awkward but Savannah and Greg made sure to make us feel comfortable and natural the entire time. Our engagement photos are something I will cherish forever! They were able to capture both our personalities, our love for each other, and the beautiful scenery behind us all in one. I scroll through our pictures daily just amazed at what a good job they did. Thank you Savannah and Greg, I can never express how happy you’ve made us!!!!
