OUR REVIEWS

Don't take our word for it. The stars speak for themselves.

Wow! Bethany with Elevate photographed my wedding in November 2024 (assisted by Emily) and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with them. As a bride, I wanted the focus of the photos to be on the authentic, expression-filled, “this is really what was seen on the day of the wedding” shots and MAN DID THEY DELIVER! Our photos perfectly captured and reflected the love, fun and beauty that was our wedding. I am a very expressive person (literally my face reflects what I am feeling - IN EXCESS) And my favorite photos (SO MANY OF THEM) were of the sheer joy and happiness of the day not just of me, but of my now husband, family members, and guests enjoying themselves and sharing in the joy of the celebration. I look back at the pictures constantly and I couldn’t be happier with them all. The photos of the venue perfectly captured the vision I had, the ceremony and the special moments shared, family photos, bridesmaid/groomsman photos, etc. all amazing. Bethany was calm and collected (even when we were slightly behind on time) and never made me feel stressed, overwhelmed or anything other than beautiful and happy the entire day/evening. Most of the time I barely knew she was there as she was capturing moments as they happened rather than directing certain things to happen. Bethany and Emily just felt like having two good friends present along for the best ride and I couldn’t have chosen a better photographer for the best day of our lives.

Working with Elevate Business Photography is a breeze from start to finish - I call them for headshots whenever we have a new hire. They have a thoughtful blend of professionalism and creativity and understand how to capture our team in a way that reflects our brand. The turnaround time is fast, and the images are polished and consistent. Looking forward to continuing to work with the team at Elevate!

Kelsey Templeton with Elevate was SO wonderful. We had less than ideal wedding conditions on March 22, 2025 and she still killed it. So fun to work with, super professional and on time, and the pictures are just gorgeous. Cannot recommend enough!!!

We recently worked with Brittany and had a phenomenal experience. We were apprehensive about wedding photography in general, since we are shy and do not like posing for pictures, but Brittany made the whole process very painless and wonderful. The pictures she captured also truly captured our essence and we couldn't be happier with the results.A couple specifics on our experience:Brittany met with us a few times, months and weeks ahead of the wedding to answer our questions, align our expectations, and so she could get a feel on what specific photos with friends and family that we would like. Brittany was very easy to talk to and kept meticulous notes. We felt as though we were on the same page, even before the wedding week. She even conversed with our day-of planner ahead of time to have a well-established schedule of pictures ahead of time.Day-of Brittany was great, quickly learning the names of the bridal party and moms. Her experience was evident, as she knew what-to-do when and even filled in some of the gaps and helped out with details, such as affixing my boutonniere when my mom didn't know how :). She worked with us and capture the natural moments as well as the posed moments, making for a perfect experience.And finally, the pictures look amazing. It was chilly and windy out and Brittany worked quickly and efficiently so that the bridal party didn't freeze. She was friendly and funny, while getting everyone into an easy-going mood. Brittany is obviously good with children as well, and took fantastic photos of our 3-year-old niece/flower girl.I can't recommend Brittany and Elevate enough, it really was a wonderful experience. Thank you!

We worked with Emily from Elevate and we had an amazing experience! From the first moment we met Emily, we felt comfortable with her and knew she would do an amazing job. We loved that there were different packages offered and could add additional time or other extras. The instant sneak peak was a hit at our wedding!During the engagement session, Emily was able to help us pick a perfect location and give us advice on how to pose. She knew we weren't comfortable in front of the camera and she was patient and guided us kindly. She also included in our dogs, which was a plus in our book!To be honest, I was a little worried about working with a photographer who hadn't seen many Indian weddings but I should have known differently. Emily and her colleague Nate were present and captured all the important moments we wanted plus some! The family members all enjoyed working with Emily and Nate and my husband and I felt comfortable during the entire day. Emily constantly checked in with us and was just so wonderful to work with, I was extremely impressed and so glad that we chose her.The attention to detail and the light and airy artistic style that Emily uses was exactly what we wanted and she captured our big day perfectly :)
Emily and the Elevate team were great to work with! From the ease scheduling the meetings, engagement photos and ultimately the wedding day, our experience with Emily and Elevate overall was fantastic. Would highly recommend reaching out!
Bethany was the absolute BEST!! She was incredibly easy to work with, super fun and of course the pictures are amazing!

We are extremely happy with our experience and photos from Elevate Photography, we would highly recommend them! We love that they offer different level of packages and were excited to find someone who offered engagement photos as part of a wedding package. We worked with Bethany Naes and she was incredible! Her communication was so clear, she made taking photos fun, directed use very well on what to do/how to pose, and our photos turned out phenomenal. She listened to what we wanted and provided her expertise in a way that we understood and were involved in the process. She's incredibly detail oriented and helped our day run SO smoothly.
