Nikayla & Co. 
Rating: 4.4 (7 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Hartford, SD

I grew up with a life saturated in creativity. To put it simply: I love my job. My style tends to be joyful, raw, romantic, & bold. I love a deep splash of color in a palette of neutrals and natural light. I love traveling, ethnic food, & ice cream! Getting married myself helped me to realize the importance of wedding photography more than I could’ve imagined. I am also all about printing photos. I’ve shot over 75 weddings, and continue to in Las Vegas, NV, MN, ND, and beyond. I would love to serve you as a part of my journey. All I want is to build a relationship with you, be your third wheel, & send you off with memories.

“Nikayla’s team captured our Catholic ceremony perfectly & were so easy to work with. They went above & beyond for our special day. Would highly recommend to everyone.”

Aanna Chase Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Hartford, SD

Hello! My name is Aanna and I can't wait to meet you. When I was seven years old, my parents gifted me with a tape recorder. It became my aim to document life in my home and beyond—an ongoing narration. Fast forward a few years and I brought my journalism to a new level when I spent my hard earned money on a camera. The rest is history—and a longer story for a future coffee date :) For as long as I can remember, I have been observing and responding to the stories and visuals around me; and it has only become more exciting with every person I meet and event I photograph!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Working with Aanna was an absolute dream for our wedding! She is truly a one woman show and spent 8 hours with us and never missed a shot. She was incredibly helpful in making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was able to capture us beautifully in both candid and curated shots. There was excellent communication that helped our day run smoothly and stress free. We have received some teaser photographs back and are absolutely stunned with her artistic ability! 10/10 would recommend her to any couple out there for their photographer, we could not be happier!!!!!”

Kylee Jade - Photographer 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Hartford, SD

California born, Minnesota raised, currently enjoying life in Sioux Falls, SD with my husband and a quirky turtle named Hermione. Lover of Jesus, good food, Star Wars, and books. You deserve a wedding without stress and "we have to's" - a celebration that feels comfortable, fun, & true to your personalities. I love helping couples simply feel like themselves on their wedding day; creating space for them to make memories instead of just photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We were beyond impressed with Kylee, and if we could go back and do it all over again, she'd be my top choice for our wedding photographer! We met Kylee at a bridal show and loved her focus on catching candid moments. She delivered -- our photos feel like us because she caught so many small moments and inside jokes. Looking back at our wedding photos, it's so easy to relive the day. She didn't just "take photos" but she really told our story beautifully. Another positive for us specifically: My husband and I are both kind of awkward photo subjects, and we were nervous about our engagement photos and wedding day photos. Kylee made the process so comfortable! She fit in with our bridal party, was easy to spend time with, and at the same time, managed to keep everyone on task. Honestly, I'm kind of bummed I don't have a reason to hang out with her now Bonus benefits of working with Kylee (IMO): 1. When she asked me "what does your family look like?" vs. something about parents specifically, I was sold. I lost my dad two years before our wedding, and it was such a relief to have a photographer who didn't make immediate assumptions about us. 2. She was SO FAST. We expected to wait much longer for our wedding photos, and she had first looks the next day. The rest of our photos were back quickly, too. 3. She took the time to know us. By the time the wedding day rolled around, I didn't worry at all about her getting the shots we wanted because we'd spent the time building a relationship with her. TL;DR: 10/10 recommend Kylee Jade Photography. We were so happy with the process and the results.”

Solis Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Hartford, SD

I grew up in Spain right by the Mediterranean Sea, but my passion for photography started in 2006 while studying in Sweden. I got my hands on a camera for the first time and since then, I haven’t been able to stop. In 2011, I invested in my first professional camera and started my business. Little did I know that would be the start of my wonderful journey through the American Dream. I photographed my first solo wedding in 2012. I loved the experience, the romance and the beauty of the moment. That year I booked three more weddings and by 2013, three weddings turned into eight; eight turned into fifteen in 2014, and so on.

“Patty is a true artist in how she photographs. Her ability to see what most don’t is impeccable, leaving you in awe when she shows you the shot afterwards. The simplicity yet beauty she captures in each photograph is like I said that of a true artist. If you want the most stunningly beautiful wedding photos and most personalized service then go with Solis Photography, Patty. Your future self will thank you!”

She sent over a bunch of previews within 24 hours. I’ve heard a fair number of horror stories from other brides when it comes to photography, and I’m so thankful Emily was exactly what we envisioned and wanted!”

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

“Edgar is the best! He was fun to be around and up for anything. He traveled hours to meet us and even went on a pretty buggy/muddy hike to capture the most incredible photos. We are both so awkward in front of a camera and he immediately made us comfortable - such an important skillset! We can't wait to see him again next June for our wedding, and have so much faith that he will hit it out of the park again!”

Hi! I’m Bri! Cameras have always been a passion, but it wasn’t until I left my corporate job that I fully embraced photography as my calling. I started by capturing Jiu Jitsu, focusing on its raw intensity, but soon realized I love the mushy gushy moments—tearful vows, quiet glances, and the joy of saying “yes” to forever. Now, I specialize in weddings, elopements, engagements, and proposals, blending storytelling with emotion and movement. With a keen eye for detail, I create images that feel natural, artistic, and deeply personal—telling your story exactly as it is.

Hey there!! My name is Alexis and I'm so glad you're here. I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in Hankinson, ND, with ties to Minneapolis as well, so I am in MN often and will gladly come wherever you are! I love the all things outdoors, especially forests and couldn't live without coffee.

“I had Alexis (and Sam) photograph my wedding at the Avalon Events Center on 6/13. She was awesome every step of the way, from having a huge bag of wedding kit items, helping pose and manage family for photos, and coming up with ideas for photos to make use of the large gap of time we had between the ceremony and the grand march. I don't think I saw her and Sam put down their cameras the entire 8 hours they were there on that day, so I'm excited to get the full gallery of photos! She was also able to rush us out for some awesome sunset photos when we only had a few minutes to get them. Cannot recommend her highly enough! Her price is extremely reasonable for the great quality of service and photos she provides.”

“If I could give Brayley more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!! From the very beginning, she was amazing. She was so communicative when I was first looking for a wedding photographer, and as the wedding got closer, she was always quick to answer my questions and put my mind at ease. She made the whole process feel so much less stressful. On our wedding day, she was everything we could have hoped for. She was friendly, organized, and so helpful, and she truly helped the day run smoothly. She made my husband, me, and our entire wedding party feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, which made such a difference. She was also just so much fun to be around. She brought the best energy all day and was the sweetest hype woman and cheerleader, which I absolutely loved. She made us feel so confident and made taking pictures feel easy. When she sent us our sneak peeks, we were honestly blown away. My stepmom and I might be a little biased, but we both agreed they’re some of the most beautiful wedding photos we’ve ever seen. We are absolutely obsessed with them!! Brayley is so talented at what she does, and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer, and we’re so grateful she was part of our wedding day.”

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

“We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.”
