Randy at Crane's Photography is so creative and visionary and takes beautiful photos. We are so pleased with our wedding photos. He really knows his lighting, etc. and picked great spots for our outdoor photos. The two of us had beautiful first look photos by a lake, photos by an archway at the church, and had sunset photos at the reception - all of the solo couple shots are just priceless! He also took pictures of us hitting golf balls in our wedding dress/tuxedo since our reception was at a golf course (country club). He also captured many family portraits for us and we love these as well as our wedding party photos. We also used Crane's Photography's photo booth services during the reception, which was a big hit and the photos were so fun. The service was high-tech yet straightforward and the background looked great. Thank you for everything, Crane's Photography!

Megan was fantastic to work with! I saw her work through some friends and really didn’t want to hire anyone but her for our wedding. She captured everything we hoped for and more. Her attention to detail and making sure each shot and setup was perfect really showed her passion. I highly recommend Megan for any photographic needs you may have!

Absolutely zero complaints. The process was so easy and simple. My photographer Jess was a dream to work with- extremely flexible, likable, and got all of the specific shots I wanted. I got the final photos back much faster than expected too. They are stunning.

We had the absolute best experience working with Kat for our wedding photos. From the moment she arrived, she brought such a calm, positive energy that made the whole day feel easier and more fun. She guided us through every shot without ever making anything feel posed or forced — it all felt natural, effortless, and genuinely “us.” Kat has an incredible eye for detail. She captured every moment we hoped for and so many beautiful ones we didn’t even realize were happening. When we got our photos back, we were blown away. The colors, the emotion, the storytelling — everything was perfect. Not only is Kat insanely talented, but she’s also just a wonderful person to have around on such an important day. Professional, warm, organized, and truly invested in making sure you love your photos. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who goes above and beyond, Kat is the one. We couldn’t recommend her more!

I had my bachelorette party do a pinup shoot at VaVoom after being there years before for my best friend's bachelorette. The pictures are the best souvenir of the party. Everyone had so much fun dressing up, trying new outfits, and exploring the sets.  Heather was fantastic with being a hype woman, giving first-timers guidance on poses, and creating a special atmosphere.  We got to look through everyone's pictures at the end, which was a great way to wrap the party. Afterward, everyone was raving about what a great experience it had been. I would highly recommend VaVoom for a unique and memorable bachelorette.

Best photographer ever for documentary style! Christina captured our small, intimate wedding so, so beautifully - she was professional throughout and understood our vibe perfectly. We have so many amazing photos and memories of working with Christina on our wedding day and have amazing photos we will treasure for the rest of our lives! Cannot recommend her enough!

byDesign Films was a fantastic choice for our engagement and wedding pictures! From initial booking to receiving our final pictures we had an awesome customer support team who would quickly answer our questions. There was also a photo timeline tool to help us build out what photos were important to us, and the timing of photography throughout our wedding day. This photo timeline ultimately ended up being our wedding day timeline, so that was awesome! Would definitely recommend!

In addition to beautifully capturing our wedding — both candidly and in formally posed shots — the best part of working with Ivy is her calm presence. She put everyone in the wedding party at ease while confidently directing the shoot. She is so professional and fun at the same time. Also easy to communicate with and works to understand the vibe/setting/atmosphere to capture your vision for your shoot!

all 3 guys i had for the day were soo nice patient and i really appreciate them

I cannot express my gratitude enough for our amazing wedding photographer, Madi! From start to finish, she made our special day feel so graceful and effortless. Leading up to the wedding, I was a bundle of nerves, but Madi’s calming presence instantly put me, my wedding party, and our families at ease. She felt more like a friend tagging along than just a photographer, seamlessly blending into the celebration. Her warmth, friendliness, professionalism, and incredible organization truly shone through. The humor she brought added to the incredible vibe of the day, making everything feel relaxed and joyful. Now, let’s talk about the photos—wow! Each image is breathtaking and perfectly captures the essence of our day. Madi has an incredible talent for finding the most beautiful moments, from candid laughter to the most heartfelt glances. Every shot tells a story, preserving the joy and love we felt throughout the day. The colors are vibrant, the emotions are palpable, and the details are captured beautifully. I genuinely can’t thank Madi enough for the stunning memories she created for us. I wish for everyone to have a Madi by their side on their wedding day! If you’re looking for a photographer who not only delivers stunning images but also enhances the overall experience, look no further. Madi is simply the best, and we are so grateful to have had her as part of our celebration!
