Our experience with George Street was excellent! Their service was professional, timely, and more affordable than some other vendors we were considering. We loved the safety net included with going with a company like George Street. One of my biggest nightmares was worrying about one of our photographers/videographer missing our wedding day. The coordinators provided us peace of mind stating that if an emergency should happen, they would have another staff member come and fill in. The coordinators respond quickly to emails, which was great being so busy working full time while wedding planning. We got our photos back about a month later which was much faster than I was expecting. Our video took another month or so and was so sweetly edited. We got contact information from our photo/video team the week before the wedding just in case we needed to contact them individually. They did a great job helping us capture memories that we will cherish forever

We just received our full wedding gallery, and the photos are absolutely stunning — over 1,300 beautiful images capturing every detail, emotion, and moment of our day.

They seamlessly blended into the day, always present but never intrusive — giving us gentle direction when needed while allowing us to fully live in each moment. Their friendly, calming energy put us, our wedding party, and our guests completely at ease. It truly felt like they were as personally invested in capturing our day as we were in living it. The crew’s creativity, attention to detail, and personalized approach made us feel like we were in the best possible hands. They listened to what was important to us and delivered exactly that — candid laughter, emotional glances, stunning scenery, and all the in-between moments we’ll cherish forever. We are beyond thrilled with the photos, and now we’re counting down the days to see our full feature video.

Ivory Grove was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography and videography. Their communication style was quick, easy, and they answered all of our questions throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was amazing - they turned around our photos and video in record time and were a breeze to work with. Ivory Grove made sure there was nothing for us to stress over on our wedding day, and they made us feel comfortable the entire time. We booked them a year before our wedding date and I was worried we wouldn't hear anything from them until right before the big day, but that was completely the opposite of what happened. They checked in on us multiple times throughout the year, sending us helpful tips and always asking if we needed anything. So many of our guests raved about the beautiful photos and video that Ivory Grove captured of our special day.

I considered myself pretty laid-back when it came to most aspects of wedding planning, but I was certain about wanting high-quality, true-to-color, beautiful photographs that would stand the test of time and capture the unique details of our day. After extensive research, I discovered Emma's work on Instagram. From our first meeting, my husband and I knew she was the perfect fit. Not only was her work stunning, but Emma was also easy to talk to and genuinely fun. I loved that we did an engagement session first and would recommend this to everyone if possible. It was a fantastic opportunity for us to get to know Emma better and feel comfortable being photographed. Emma also made it a point to meet with us again in person before the wedding to go over planning details. The effort she put into spending time with us before the wedding truly paid off because it felt like she really understood us. We received the photos quickly after the wedding, and they are beautiful and timeless. Some shots turned out so cool that I feel like we could be in a magazine. Emma kept us on schedule throughout the day and managed our family with grace. I am so grateful that being photographed on the day was an enjoyable experience—none of it felt stuffy or burdensome; it was like hanging out with a great friend. Emma, we are eternally grateful to you! Additionally, I think it's worth mentioning, given the current discussions about wedding photography on social media, that Emma provided several full galleries upfront with different types of lighting once I expressed interest in working with her. There was no ambiguity about her style, and I really appreciated her encouragement to do the engagement session as a way to get to know each other better. She is a true professional through and through!

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
