Kyle P. Sent on 07/07/2020The Best Day Ever
We cannot thank Jacob and Ariel enough for capturing our wedding day in Gatlinburg Tennessee at Almost Heaven Resorts and Weddings. We had absolutely minimal fears going into our big day with Ariel and Jacob, if we had any fears it was not associated with how these two would carry out their jobs. It was truly nice to not have to worry about the photos and videos because I knew we were in good hands.
Ariel did our photographs and Jacob did our videography work. It was unbelievable to have two extremely artistic and savvy people work off of each other and feed off of each other. Ariel and Jacob are an elite team, they made us feel comfortable, it was truthfully like spending time with friends.
The actual wedding day was a breeze Ariel and Jacob showed up early and got right to work. Again they made us feel comfortable and not once overwhelmed. Not once did they judge us or pressure us into doing anything uncomfortable. This day couldn’t have been better, we wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to capture our day!
The best decision we made was choosing a destination wedding in Tennessee, and secondly choosing Ariel and Jacob to capture our day!Photos by Ariel's reply:
Awwww! These sweet words bring such a big smile to our faces! It was seriously a joy to travel around the world with you to make your day as special as you two! -

I just had to share this photo with the dream team!!!
You never would have known that they didnt know anyone at the wedding. They fit right in and all my wedding party talked about was how they wanted to be friends with them in real life -

Phenomenal
Ariel was absolutely amazing! She shot family photos for my family, my surprise proposal, our engagement session, and our wedding. She knew us and our story and it made our experience one of a kind. Ultimately though, Ariel made us feel like family. She is sweet, genuine, and patient. She knows what she is doing and is very reliable. I honestly don't know what we would have done if my husband and I wouldn't have found Ariel. We feel truly blessed and I would 100% recommend her to ANYONE!Photos by Ariel's reply:
Thank you so much Abigail! Photographing you and Jason's wedding was such an honor! I feel so blessed to have followed you through your journey as couple, finance, and now husband and wife! :) -

She genuinely went above and beyond to get amazing photos for our engagement and day of pictures. We had to switch to an elopement (thanks, covid!), but she helped us keep a great attitude and we could not believe just how breathtaking they all came out... She perfectly captured everything and was an absolute gem. I cannot recommend her enough!Photos by Ariel's reply:
Thank you so much Stephanie! -

I couldn’t have imagined my wedding day without Ariel. Picking a photographer is such an important decision for your wedding and I was looking for someone who clicked with my personality, would capture my day beautifully, and someone who would make the day fun (even in extremely hot temperatures). I initially inquired information about a lot of photographers, but when Ariel sent me her information and I looked over her website and social media pages, I knew she was the one I wanted to hire. My experience working with Ariel was truly SO MUCH FUN!! On our engagement shoot, she drove to my family’s farm and took pictures of us while a huge thunderstorm (and later tornado) rolled in, and still to this day, we are obsessed with those pictures. Her concept was capturing the best experience even if we were soaking wet afterward. That shoot was truly the most fun I’ve ever had while taking pictures. Since our wedding was during COVID, we had a lot of things up in the air until the last month before the wedding and Ariel continued to check-in with me about our upcoming plans, which was so sweet! On the day of our wedding, during the 100+ degree temperatures, she helped keep up with the timeline (even when the boys were behind) and truly made me feel so relaxed during the process. She made the posed pictures so fun and her creative style really shows when you get the images back. Also on the day of our wedding, she graciously took the guy’s getting ready pictures at the golf course during a round of golf. When we received our gallery, I spent at least 4 hours that night looking through all of them and sending them to friends and family because I was obsessed. If you are looking for a wedding photographer who will make taking pictures fun, make you’re wedding day stress-free, and capture your day beautifully, hire Ariel. At the end of our wedding, I felt like Ariel was one of my friends. I could not have imagined having anyone else capture our special day! -

Alexandra Sent on 11/18/2019Fun, professional, experienced, AMAZING!
Ariel was so awesome to work with! My (now) husband is always very uncomfortable having his photo taken, but she helped us break his shell and get some amazing photos! She knows how to keep the flow moving. Our Engagement session was FREEZING, but she made us feel comfortable and used it to her advantage to capture beautiful photos! She's always upbeat! Her photos have a light, airy feeling about them, and that's exactly what we were looking for! 11/10 would recommend!Photos by Ariel's reply:
Awwww thank you so, so much Alex! -

Amazing pictures!
Ariel made our wedding day so perfect. She worked with us to help come up with a schedule. Ariel made all the planning easy and thought of things we needed to consider that we wouldn't have thought of. She was great to go with the flow and work around our day being changed completely due to the rain. Ariel was great about wrangling our large families and making sure all of the pictures we wanted were done. I will note that although we had two photographers we were under the impression that one would be with the groom getting ready and one with the bride. That was not the case come the day of so if that is your plan or need, make sure you specify. We loved our pictures and how unique they were to our special day. Jacob Tyler Media did an amazing job with our video and the two of them as a team worked so well together. We were so happy with our experience and thankful we chose Ariel to be a part of our experience front the planning, to the engagement pictures, to the day of the wedding. -

Fun D. Sent on 08/22/2019We Loved Working with Ariel!
We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Photos by Ariel!! As a wedding band, we work with several different photographers and vendors, few as professional and outstanding as Ariel. Ariel not only took incredible photos throughout the entire day, she was also approachable, organized, and truly a joy to work beside. Ariel made sure to coordinate and confirm all of the details for the ceremony and reception ahead of time with our team and was in communication with our team throughout the entire wedding. Beyond her incredible professionalism and quality work, Ariel’s demeanor was so pleasant. From the moment we met her through the end of the night, Ariel was smiling, interacting with the bridal party and guests, and was bringing a positive energy to the entire room. We could not recommend her more. -

Grace Sent on 05/09/2019Capture the moment to relive through photos
If you are looking for quality images that capture you and your loved ones Ariel is the girl for you. We all know how uncomfortable getting pictures done can be. - NOT with her! Her gentle guidance for posing and ability to adapt and overcome every situation makes it an enjoyable experience. If you have an idea, even if it's crazy, let her know. She will take it and run with it - or if it's to crazy come up with another option... and sometimes that's even better. 🙂❤️Photos by Ariel's reply:
Thank you so much for the kind review Grace! So thankful to have gotten to know you and Sterling and photograph one of the most important days of your lives! -

Check out Photos by Ariel!
Ariel with Photos by Ariel is the absolute best! We really enjoyed her attitude throughout the whole process of our engagement pictures to our wedding day! Our wedding day was October 20th 2018 and there was 40+ mph winds. But she made the best of it! She got beautiful shots of my dress blowing in the wind! So in love!! She kept us informed on when she would have our wedding pictures done and was giving us sneak peeks to hold us over! HIGHLY recommend Ariel for any type of pictures you need! She also does amazing family and baby pictures!!Photos by Ariel's reply:
Thank you so much for the kind words Kaycee! It was such an honor to be part of your big day!!! Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together! -

Amazing! Cant say enough good things about Ariel!
I wish I could give Ariel more than 5 stars! She was the best investment we made for our daughters wedding! She was AMAZING. My daughters wedding was outside and the wind that day was 50+ mph but you cant tell that in the pictures! Ariel was patient and attentive to everyone's feelings that day. As the mother of the bride, I was emotional and she captured those "special moments" that my daughter and I shared as well as with everyone else. I always have a hard time getting my son in law to smile naturally when we are taking snapshots and Ariel brought out the BEST in him and got him to smile :) Very professional and kept things moving along without coming off as bossy or rude to anyone.
Not only is Ariel a remarkable photographer, but the words she writes to go with the pictures, really sets her out amongst any other photographer I have ever used. Between her photos, her words, and her bubbly personality, she really is the BEST! We have 3 more daughters and you can bet we will be contacting her for them as well!Photos by Ariel's reply:
Thank you so much from your kind words Kathie! It was such an honor to be a part of your daughters special day and I cannot wait for the next 3! -
