Holly is the best!

We are so grateful to have had Holly as our wedding photographer! From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, making the planning process easy and stress-free. On our wedding day, she was not only professional and friendly but also genuinely kind, helping us feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera.

Holly was amazing at directing us in a natural and relaxed way, capturing every moment beautifully. Our photos turned out absolutely stunning, and we have received so many compliments from our guests, everyone keeps commenting on how gorgeous they are! She was also impressively efficient at getting our photos back, making the whole experience seamless.

Holly made our wedding photography fun, easy, and memorable. She helped make our wedding day the best day ever! I already love looking through the wedding photos she took, and I can't wait to look through them for years to come. We couldn’t recommend her more!

Wonderful Photographer to Work With

Holly was extremely helpful from the first time I spoke to her. Xpression was recommended to my by a friend and I will definitely suggest her to any other bride in the area. She was so easy to communicate with and addressed all my concerns and questions without any judgment! Holly did more for me than just take photos, she helped me build a timeline based her experience and supported me throughout the entire wedding planning process. The photos all turned out amazingly and we couldn't be happier with the quality of the product - the photos are gorgeous! Holly and Amber were a wonderful addition to our wedding day team and I'm so thankful for their hardwork and professionalism to help capture the most important day! Even in moments of adversity, they stayed calm and collected. You will not be disappointed with Xpression as your photography vendor!

Can’t recommend enough!

Holly was amazing to work with for our wedding. She is kind and patient and gave great advice leading up to the day. She made us feel comfortable and wrangled all of our guests and family into photos with ease, which is no small feat! Holly blends into the party perfectly while capturing memories beautifully. Her communication and responsiveness is top notch and we will cherish the photos and memories from our day!

The BEST Decision We Made!!

Xpression Photography was the best part of our day. From the beginning when we had reached out to Holly to do our photos for our wedding, she got back to us instantly and asked if we could talk over the phone. This was something we hadn’t experienced with other photographers when we were deciding. From that moment we knew she was going to be the one do capture our day! When we had our engagement session Holly was super nice and it felt natural with her. She offers great advice and we admired that. She even got our pictures back to us in less than 24 hours! When it came time for our wedding we sent her a timeline and Holly & her team followed it to a T! She made sure the day was about us and our photos show a lot of that! Everything about Xpression Photography made our day so much brighter and we were so grateful that they were able to be apart of our day. Aside from the photography aspect Holly & her team are so kind and a lot of fun to be around which made us so happy with our decision!!

Photos we will cherish for a lifetime

We used Xpression photography for our February wedding and I can’t say enough good things to really capture how amazing they are! Holly, and Amber her second shooter, were on time, organized, and helped keep me calm and relaxed! We got every shot I wanted and the photos are amazing!!! The best part is we got a sneak peek within a day which helped hold us over until the full gallery was ready, which was ready by the time we were back from our honeymoon! This is the type of photographer that you use for your wedding and then every life event thereafter, I 100% recommend!

Holly is the best!

From the start Holly was exceptional! She took our engagement photos and came to the location full of ideas and poses. We were in awe of the timeless look the engagement photos had. Then, she did our wedding day and surpassed my expectations! The photos of the ceremony, our bridal party, Jacob and I, and the reception were all amazing!! I cannot get over how timeless her photos are. Her photos are light and airy and she has a gift for catching the best moments on camera. Plus, not to mention she did a first look within 24 hours and sent me the thousands of photos in less than 2 weeks!! Unheard of! Her communication is amazing as well. 10000/10 highly recommend!!

Wish we could give more than 5 stars!

Holly and Amber are the dream team! They went above and beyond to capture every moment of our special day. Our wedding day felt like pure magic, and when we saw the photos, we were stunned that somehow Holly was able to capture the magic in photo form (I know that’s cheesy, but it’s so true!). We received so many comments on how great the photos are, but also how great the photographers were to work with. We couldn’t be happier! Our only problem is every photo is fantastic, and unfortunately we can’t frame them all. 10/10!!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Holly, our wedding photographer! She is incredibly kind, talented, and an absolute joy to work with. Our wedding and engagement photos are beyond stunning, each one is so beautiful and captures the moment perfectly. Holly has a special gift for making you feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which made the entire experience effortless and fun. Her clear instructions helped us look natural and relaxed, giving us photos that we’ll treasure forever. We wholeheartedly recommend Holly to anyone looking for an amazing photographer, she’s simply the best!

Two words: book xpression

We used Holly & Amber from Xpression Photography for our February 2025 wedding and it was the best decision ever! Holly was a dream to work with throughout the entire planning process and up through the big day. She was so communicative and had so many helpful tips and ideas for us to help make our day not only be beautiful but also run smoothly. Even when cold weather threatened our big day, Holly was so encouraging and positive. Our memories of our wedding day will fade, but thanks to Holly and Amber we have GORGEOUS photos that will last a lifetime. I could not recommend them more!!

Amazing photographer

Holly at Xpressions Photography is so much more than a typical wedding photographer. She is kind, knowledgeable, professional, and knows exactly how to treat a bride. Holly had great photo suggestions, location suggestions for both engagement and wedding photos, and she was incredibly speedy getting our wedding photos back to us. My husband and I aren’t the most comfortable in front of a camera and working with Holly was so natural and comfortable, and the photos really reflected this. We had so much fun working with Holly and we can’t pick favorite wedding photos because all of them are so good!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Being in the wedding business, I've had the opportunity to work with a lot of photographers, some good and some not so good. One of the things I advise my clients to do when choosing a photographer is to not only look at their previous work, talk to past clients, verify their experience/training, but to feel out their personality. You want to choose someone who you'd like to spend 12 hours with! Holly not only has a wealth of experience behind her, she is the sweetest person you will meet. She has the technical ability needed for a good photographer and the eye for getting that perfect shot! She is a joy to work with and it shows in her work.
