  Elisa is the absolute best to work with. She has very creative ideas and helps make you feel like you can just be yourself. She went above and beyond and I would definitely recommend her for your wedding!

  I am over the moon with my wedding photos! Elisa did a fantastic job with our engagement and wedding photos! Her prices are competitive, she is professional, and she is easy to work with. She asks how much control she needs to take with your group (I asked her to boss us around, which she did in he nicest way!), she was prepared with photos and poses I showed her I liked, she took my basic ideas for photographs and turned them in to works of art! Highly reccommend.

  Elisa did a phenomenal job with our wedding! She did our engagement photos, wedding, and our wedding album. She was very professional and made the process very comfortable for everyone. She is very organized which enabled us to maximize our time on our wedding day. The wedding album beautifully depicts our day with brilliant high resolution photographs! We would highly recommend Elisa.

  My wife and I were so thrilled to have Elisa as our photographer for both the engagement and the wedding photos. The experience she brought made the whole experience amazing. She knew how to capture my wife and I in the most organic way possible. She is easy to work with and very pleasant. She also knows how to deal with stressful and difficult situations, particularly when the weather becomes a challenge. Our wedding turned out to be incredibly windy, but she still managed to capture the beauty and the humor in the moments. She knows how to improvise and roll with the moments. Between ceremony and reception, she followed our wedding party to various locations. Our group decided to go to the zoo and the penguin house in St. Louis and she went along with it and the photos turned out great there. She worked with the environment around us and helped make wonderful memories for us. She was very respectful and she accommodated special requests, such as no flashes during the ceremony. Another concern of ours was that we did not want a photographer that had an obnoxious presence while shooting the wedding. Elisa has a knack for shooting pictures without you being aware of it. She allows the subjects to simply be in their natural setting and captures great shots while off in the distance. This made the photos very candid. She caught emotional moments well. We had some difficulty accessing our wedding photos initially when they were ready, but Elisa was attentive to the situation. She responded to our difficulty and helped us through the problem with ease. We are so thankful we found Elisa. Our memories of our beautiful day are well preserved thanks to her. If you go with Elisa, you will be getting one of the finest and experienced professionals in the business and you will be so happy with the quality of her work.

  The best decision I made while planning for my wedding was choosing Elisa as our photographer! Not only was she extremely helpful in wedding planning (offering great advice and always responsive to my emails), we are obsessed with our engagement and wedding photos! Her turn around is super fast, we had our wedding photos only 3 short weeks after our wedding! I would absolutely recommend Elisa to any bride looking for a laid back photographer that will make your wedding day go off without a hitch!

  Elisa did an amazing job on our wedding photos! We threw a few challenges at her - had our first look at a cemetery chapel (told her not to get the headstones in the photos); wanted candid photos at a local brewery (filled with patrons); and had a tight timeline (where we even ran late with makeup to start us off)! She definitely delivered! She was very easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable. My husband and I are so thrilled with them cannot wait to show them off to our family and friends. I would absolutely recommend Elisa to any bride!

  Elisa was an amazing choice for our wedding photographer! We had our engagement photos done by her as well, and we knew from that experience that the wedding photos would be unbelievable. She was super responsive throughout the whole process - I even emailed her my angst about finding wedding umbrellas 2 weeks before the wedding, and she helped me find an online vendor that sold the ones I wanted! Elisa is very friendly and sweet, and is amazing at capturing moments as they happen. Those are the best! Her photos are crisp and gorgeous and worth every penny. We wanted two photographers, so she brought a 2nd photographer that was trained in her style-her photos were amazing too - she trained her well! There aren't enough good things I could say. She's a great choice! Also very flexible if you have NO ideas and want her to take the lead, or if you DO have ideas and want her to use them. :)

  Elisa photographed an engagement session last fall and our wedding in April and she was truly amazing! She was so easy to work with and made our wedding day unforgettable. We felt like she truly listened to the moments we wanted to capture, and the results were better than we could have imagined! On our wedding day, we had several scheduling hiccups, and while we didn't realize it at the time, Elisa kept us calm and distracted from those issues throughout the day, taking advantage of a few quiet moments that would have otherwise been stressful to whisk us away for a photo op. She managed to get all the right shots and capture those special moments, yet seemed to stay behind-the-scenes all at once. We are so happy we chose to work with her!

  Elisa was an absolutely amazing, totally stress-free addition to our wedding day. I am a bit camera-shy, but Elisa did a great job putting me and my fiance at ease and being a positive presence on a very busy day. In addition, she delivered a beautiful set of photos that were just what we had requested from her. I couldn't be happier with our choice of photographer!

  Elisa is absolutely fantastic to work with. She helped us from the very beginning get a handle of what we wanted for our wedding - both specific to photography and in general for the timeline of the day. Her photos speak for themselves. They are beautiful, creative, and natural. She's fun to be around, very professional, and has great ideas for locations and poses that got us the best images. Her prices are extremely affordable for the quality of work. Hire her now!

  Elisa Petersen was a wonderful photographer and I would recommend her to anyone who needs a photographer for their wedding. She was affordable and accommodating with our "off season" winter wedding. She worked with us to find fun indoor locations and she adapted well to the random places we picked. Her style of photos is beautiful and my husband and I are so happy with the results. My husband is not thrilled being in front of a camera yet Elisa made us both feel so comfortable that we could help but have a fun time while being photographed. The final set of photos were done and on our doorstep within a month. She was so prepared all throughout the process. Having her as my photographer definitely took a load of worry off of my full plate of stress as a bride!

  After almost a year and a half, people are still coming up to me to rave about my wedding photos! Elisa captured us in such a natural and beautiful way--we are untrained "models" but there is nothing awkward about the photos we received from Elisa. Elisa also smartly relied upon the natural beauty of our wedding site to create some positively stunning shots. I feel like she truly anticipated what I wanted out of my wedding photos. I really couldn't be more pleased with them and I know they'll be treasured for a long time. Elisa also inspires confidence from the moment you meet her; she is sweet but still serious, and I was never worried about using her services, even though she had far fewer weddings in her portfolio than she does now! We were really lucky to find Elisa, and we cannot recommend her services enough.

  We had a very un-traditional wedding (just the bride, groom, officiant, and photographer) and an even less traditional reception (two months after the wedding and VERY casual). Not only did Elisa capture the feel of both the wedding and reception perfectly in her photography, she was willing to work with our unusual schedule. She even served as a witness for us! I cannot recommend Elisa highly enough for quality, professionalism, and vision.
