She gives great suggestions to make sure your photos turn out beautiful but never gets in the way of the actual experience. We felt incredibly comfortable with her. Taking our photos with just the two of us post-cermony still remains my favorite part of the weekend - she was so kind and we felt so relaxed. We have already received the gallery of our photos and words can't express how happy we are. She captured our emotions perfectly. Her wedding photography is a perfect combination of details, candids, classic photos and action shots (our dance floor photos are hilarious). Her use of color is the best I've seen and her prices are increadibly reasonable! If you go with Emily for your wedding, you will not be disapointed. She has great taste an amazing eye for making beautiful shots, and a knack for capturing the whole feel of your day. We have had many friends who have gone with different (and often more expensive) photographers and felt mixed feelings about their photos. We could not be happier that we picked Emily Delamater for our wedding day!

Hiring Alice and Chris to capture our wedding and separate reception was one of the best decisions we made in our whole wedding planning process, hands down. From the moment we met them, my now-wife and I connected with their incredible friendliness and energy. From the moment we saw our pictures, we were blown away. Not only do we now consider Alice and Chris friends, but we have more beautiful images from our wedding than we could have ever imagined. Alice and Chris were professional and warm and thorough from the planning through the day of, and their obvious excitement and passion for what they do made it all the more fun for us as we were taking pictures. Every single person who has seen our wedding photos has commented on how stunning they are, and both of our families will be hiring Alice and Chris for every photography need in the future. We're certainly keeping them on notice when we're ready to start our own family :) Long story short: if you want stunningly gorgeous photos and photographers who become friends, look no further than Alice and Chris.

My wife and I were busy professionals planning our own wedding; we value organized partners who communicate clear and Kasey is just that. We had a few prep calls to discuss what we wanted and get to know one another and exchanged a bunch of emails beforehand. On our big day, Kasey was well prepared, tireless and super calm with all of the moving parts. He was relaxed and welcoming to our guests, but also direct and clear, to make the best use of everyone's time and attention span. We adore Kasey and could not more highly recommend him

When we first began planning our wedding, photography was one of our top priorities. We knew that…read morethough many cherished memories would be made on our wedding day, photographs were what would capture those memories and moments and hold them for many years to come. It was with that in mind that we began our search. I stumbled across Bethany and Dan pretty early on. From the second I skimmed through their website I was wowed and felt I didn't need to search any further. I reached out to them and we promptly set up a teleconference. Their work had already sold me, but getting to chat with them and get a feel for their personalities sealed the deal. From the initial planning stages through our wedding day Bethany and Dan stayed in contact, whether through email or by mail. It's very apparent that they value their clients and that thought goes into every little thing that they do. They were always available to answer any questions we had or address any issue that came up. By the time our wedding day arrived we couldn't wait to meet them! Bethany and Dan arrived on sight on our wedding day, and my husband and I both felt like it was meeting an old friend. They were both warm and inviting and had the type of personality that put even the most nervous of people (both of us that day!) at ease. They were an absolute joy to work with. You can tell they adore their clients, their craft, and one another. We had so much fun with them! Not only did we enjoy their presence, but our families did as well. I could hardly wait for the photos to arrive and was that bride that checked her email daily even though I knew it would weeks before anything came through. When they did, I was floored. These photographs that captured on our wedding day were beyond anything I could have ever imagined or hoped for. I cried with joy as I relived those special moments, looking through he gallery. THEY. ARE. STUNNING. I cannot begin to guess how many times I've looked through them. With our gallery, were able to go through and select favorites, but I couldn't. Each and every photo is my favorite for one reason or another. Not only are we extremely happy with the photographs we received, we've also received countless compliments on our wedding photos from friends and family. I simply cannot say enough about these two. They're absolutely fantastic!

After meeting with them over the phone, we knew they were a good fit for us. Though they had to travel for our wedding, they were incredibly punctual (in fact, a bit early). They jumped right in once they arrived and made us feel comfortable while also ensuring that we were going to get pictures of our wedding day that captured everything we wanted. Bethany and Dan worked incredibly well together, with each throwing out different ideas, splitting us up for individual pictures, and both making sure our time was used efficiently. Dan made us feel extra special in finding and scouting out ahead of time a new place where we were able to take photos just outside of Acadia National Park near Bar Harbor. We were very happy with our "sneak peek" photos and are so excited to see the rest of them!

I love the style and how well they blended the natural environment and elements of our venue into the shots. There's a great balance between the details and the documentary style shots, and candid portraits of the wedding party and guests. Leading up to the wedding, we had no problem getting our questions answered and paying through their online invoicing system. We were able to visit the office and meet our photographers ahead of time and the whole experience was wonderful. We were welcomed with warmth and cupcakes! They pay attention to the details of the whole experience. This is a top-notch company. I had two disappointments (which is the reason why I didn't give a 5-star review. It would be 4.5 if I could!). The first is that photog team did not set up any fill lights for the formal portraits. I should have asked about this ahead of time, but I thought it was standard for professional portraits. At least at every wedding I have been to, there were a few diffusers or flashes set up even if the shooters were photojournalism/documentary style wedding photographers. The faces and eye sockets are more shadowed than I would have hoped. Also, in retrospect, we weren't getting any fun alternate angles for the group portraits, like looking over our shoulders, holding out our bouquets, holding hands, or moving to have a different background such as the lake in addition to having trees as the background. Alas! The second disappointment is that despite two photogs being there for over an hour while there was live music at our reception, we didn't receive a single image of the amazing seven-piece band in action. I would definitely recommend emilie inc. - just make sure you communicate about exactly what your expectations are ahead of time. Once the wedding schedule gets rolling, it is hard to remember your photography wish list. There are more important things to focus on, like being present for your loved ones and celebration! :)

Finding the right photographer you can rely on to capture the essence and beauty of a wedding can be a stressful task for any bride. That is why I set out to select a photographer as one of my first tasks after getting engaged. I am very fortunate to know a lot of wonderful wedding photographers but felt the best connection to Emilie. I knew from the beginning that we were in good hands. Emilie even called to talk to me about my vision for the wedding on her family vacation to Disney! She works masterfully with angles and lighting to capture moments in the most creative and elegant ways possible. We loved the way she interacted with us and our guests to make us all feel comfortable and at ease throughout the ceremony and reception. Emilie captures emotion at its purest and most candid moments, so that when you look back, you can easily relive those precious memories. Emilie definitely helped make our day feel even more special, and we're so incredibly happy with our choice of selecting her as our photographer to capture one of the most important days of our lives. We supremely recommend her!

Carrie is a local to Tahoe who knows all of the best secret spots AND the best poses and angles that create pure art. My fiancé and I took our engagement photos with Carrie this winter and were a little nervous to see how it would go, as we had not ever taken professional photos together before. As soon as we got in touch with her, she was very nice and easy to communicate with. She always responded quickly to my messages and I could tell she was on the ball throughout the entire process. On the day we met at Donner Lake, Carrie made it feel so natural and effortless as soon as we started, and it really set such a great tone for the entire shoot. She was super easy-going, friendly, and rolled with the ideas we had for what we wanted some things to look like or include. The best part was that she was always very collaborative with all of her instruction on poses and always made sure we were comfortable. She even stopped to show us pictures along the way that really made us feel confident and amazing! We had also brought champagne... with no glasses. But lucky for us, Carrie had even thought to come prepared with some for us to use! At the end she asked if there were any other pictures we wanted to take that we hadn't yet, which we really appreciated because it showed she took her time to make sure we had gotten everything we wanted. It was such an awesome and fun experience already that when the pictures came just a week later, I was shocked at how beautiful they were. Everything came together so perfectly for us and the pictures were better than we had even envisioned. We can't thank Carrie enough for the time, dedication, and thoughtfulness she put into our shoot together. We absolutely love our engagement pictures and we know we will treasure them for years to come!

We hired Carrie to photograph our elopement and couldn't have been happier. Carrie went above and beyond her photography duties and basically (and ever so graciously) stepped into the role of wedding planner. She helped us decide on our ceremony location, gave me a list of hair and makeup artists for day of styling, hooked me up with a gorgeous bouquet of flowers (and even gifted me a lovely vase for the flowers after the ceremony!), and was just incredibly communicative with any questions or concerns we had and was always offering to help with any other details of our big day. Just an overall dream to work with! During the wedding shoot, Carrie was a master at directing us into various poses. I applaud her patience with us and our awkward/goofiness as we had to attempt, sometimes several times, at getting that perfect look. Carrie was quick to remind us to take water breaks and at one point played some music on her phone for us so we could have our "first" dance. As two people who have never been photographed professionally beyond Sears Portraits, she made us feel comfortable and we had a lot of fun! Carrie created a customized photography package for our elopement, and went way above and beyond what we had discussed. She not only shot and gave us many, many more photos than we expected they are STUNNING. Like, unbelievably good. She also took a few Instax photos and gave them to us after the wedding shoot. Having a few tangible pictures right then and there was really special. She also surprised us with a video/slide-show she created that brought me and some of my other family members to tears. We were blown away with how quickly Carrie worked to get us our photos. In less than 24 hours, she sent us a link to a gallery website with around 25 sneak peak photos so that we could share them in our marriage announcement to friends and family (we kept it a surprise!). And in less than two weeks she had sent us the entire gallery of photos! Her gallery website, via Pic-Time, is aesthetically just lovely and easy to navigate to view, download, and purchase photos all right through her website. Beyond producing absolutely incredible photographs for us to cherish for years to come, the thoughtful extras she provided for our ceremony and beyond truly made our big day perfect.
