Reviews of The Paper Elephant

Amazing Photos and Expierence

Tegan and the experience with Paper Elephant has been amazing. We used her for our wedding, and couldn't be happier with the result. She was so professional and responsive, despite having a busy schedule for 2021. The quality of the phots and products that we received was amazing. She was able to catch great moments for us for our Engagement Photos, Wedding Photos, and my boudoir shoot. She helped us feel comfortable and feel like our true selves were reflected in all aspects of our wedding process. She helped with recommendations for timelines, and was able to get our "must have shots" as well as others. Highly recommend her and the company. Cannot say enough nice things about her!!

Choosing a photographer honestly wasn’t something about wedding planning that we anticipated being difficult… then we started looking at the abundance of talented photographers available in the Madison area, the varying levels of packages and the prices, and I must say, we were quickly overwhelmed. To us, photos were very important not only to capture the smiles & moments, but the true emotions. And now as we reminisce about the most amazing day of our lives through our photographer, we couldn't say more about The Paper Elephant.
Through our entire experience, Tegan & Jeremiah made us feel easy & comfortable right from the get go. Tegan exceeded our expectations time & time again even while working through extreme weather (both freezing cold during engagement photos, and steaming hot throughout our wedding). She jumped right into family photos knowing everyone’s names from our (large & blended) families. She kept us on schedule during the wedding day, and checked in to make sure we took a few moments just for us throughout it all. She answered every email with thought and attention. And most of all, she truly captured "us". Our unforgettable day flew by (as we were told time & time again, wedding days usually do), and inevitably so did the fleeting moments, but with our photos we have the ability to relive them. Those butterflies in our stomach, the joyful tears falling (our pouring) down our faces, laughing so hard that it almost hurts, and who could forget, the speechless special moments where all we could do was grin from ear to ear thinking "holy @%#*, how did we get so lucky!?", even the outtakes & bloopers. She captured it ALL. Tegan, thank you. For your friendship, your professionalism, and your commitment to providing us a gift we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We are eternally grateful.

Tegan is the best. Seriously. She was our photographer for our engagement photos, boudoir photos, and the wedding and she was fantastic at all of them. I thought I was going to be super awkward during the boudoir shoot and probably told her 90000 times how nervous I was, but she made me feel so comfortable after the first couple minutes that I felt silly for ever feeling a awkward. I think that speaks volumes of her personality. Super easy-going and easy to work with. Any time I had a question, she would respond to my email very quickly and help out with anything that I needed. She brought her husband Jeremiah to the engagement shoot and wedding and he was great to work with too. They make a great team and you should definitely hire The Paper Elephant for any and all of your photography needs!! The wedding day went so smoothly thanks to their help and our pictures came out absolutely amazing. I relive the wedding day every time I look at them and they were able to capture all of the important moments and small details. Highly recommend Tegan to anyone and everyone!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
