Hello! I’m Taylor, the owner, and lead photographer. Welcome to T. Rayne Photography! Creating and capturing raw moments while connecting and building lifelong relationships is what we are all about. We strive to bring comfort into each session that allows you to be your beautiful self by focusing on getting to know you with fun prompts that create organic moments. You may even forget the camera is there! The pursuit of my passion derives from my love for the Lord's creations and my faith in his plan for each of our lives. Our journey tells its own story and we are simply here to freeze part of that story to be read over and over again for

Awarded Best of Zola
This incredibly talented woman is absolutely wonderful! I've been blessed enough to have Taylor capture so many important events in my life including my first pregnancy, newborn photos, mommy & me photos, engagement photos, and most recently our wedding! You will definitely regret not booking her for your special event. Taylor is a natural at creating a fun, relaxing, and worthwhile session no matter the circumstances. I've witnessed this girl battle a colicky baby, unforgiving weather, and most commonly my awkwardness! I personally don't enjoy having my picture taken but with Taylor I actually find myself truly loving my pictures. It's all due to her expertise with coaching her clients and excellent (natural) editing skills. My husband and I are thrilled with our photos from our engagement session but, man oh man, did she blow us all away with our wedding photographs! Covid-19, as it did for many, put a damper on our original wedding day plans, but looking through our gallery you can’t tell we were in the middle of a pandemic. Taylor captured so much happiness and raw emotion throughout our day, that our loved ones who could not attend were able to experience those feelings from beginning to end! She is proof of why it is so important to invest in and trust your wedding day photographer. We found ourselves struggling to pick which photos to print and display in our house because we had so many great ones to select from! Aside from capturing people, she takes the most beautiful shots of all the little details! There are so many perishable items during a wedding: flowers, food, cake, the attention span of the ring bearer and flower girl, and Taylor gets it all. She is a true storyteller and goes above and beyond to make sure you can relive every aspect of your day over and over again. Taylor is professional, passionate, and without a doubt one of the hardest working photographers and entrepreneurs in the New Mexico wedding industry. With T. Rayne photography you get more than a photographer, you gain a crisis coordinator, a professional dress fluffer, a cheerleader, but most of all a trusted confidant! Thank You Taylor!

JT Photography

  • Serves Ponderosa, NM

Hi, we're Jonathan & Abbie, a couple deeply rooted in New Mexico, where we both grew up and fell in love. Married for 12 wonderful years, we've been blessed with three incredible children who fill our lives with joy and adventure. Despite being raised in New Mexico, our hearts belong at the ocean, and we seize every opportunity to escape to the coast and immerse ourselves in the beauty and tranquility of the sea.

It took my husband and I a few weeks to write this review as we wanted to make sure we found the right words to describe our experience with JT Photography. When we were looking for our photographer we met with a few and they were all nice and I’m sure would have done a great job, but as soon as we met Jonathan and Abbie we knew they were perfect for us. We hung up the phone call and looked at each other and said “that’s our photographer”. Communicating with them was easy the entire time and really just felt like we were talking to some friends. The photos we received are absolutely stunning. Jonathan captured every second of the day and did such a beautiful job. He was so fun and easy to work with. He made sure the day ran smoothly and that taking all our pictures was fun and easy. If you’re looking for a photographer that will blend in with your guests and take the dreamiest photos you could ever imagine, look no further. I’m so grateful we could trust Jonathan to capture our memories and we couldn’t be happier with the results!

Miller Media specializes in storytelling through photo and video. We have had the honor of taking part in life’s greatest moments and have had the pleasure of serving really incredible couples along the way. Our goal is to capture your one of a kind love as you begin the next chapter of your story.

She goes by Cheyenne Films now. Cheyenne was hands down one of the most organized and professional vendors we worked with. From our very first consultation through the contract process, it was obvious that she pays attention to every detail and truly cares about her couples. Communication was excellent throughout. On the wedding day, she went above and beyond by splitting up the coverage so we could both have getting-ready footage, even though we were in different locations. That level of flexibility meant so much to us. The sneak peek video absolutely brought me to tears—it allowed me to relive the emotions of the day all over again. Then watching the full highlight video made me cry over and over again! She has such a unique artistic eye and captured moments that felt incredibly genuine and meaningful. I can't wait to continue watching these memories for years to come. I wholeheartedly recommend her.

This review is long overdue! Mostly because my wife and I have been 'honeymooning' these past few months but we wanted to also share our experience with Lightfall Imagery for our wedding back in November 2024. Victoria was super professional and showed up on time and was ready to take photos from start time to a little after finish. Unfortunately our other photographer from a different company cancelled on us so she had to work a little harder for us to help fill the role for 2 photographers and she did not dissapoint. My wife and I usually are not photogenic but Victoria helped us to feel relaxed and ourselves throughout our special day. We would absolutely love to work with her again. If you are ever considering a photographer for any occasion, Lightfall Imagery is definitely a choice you can not go wrong with.

Portraits by Sean was truly a blessing from the Lord for our wedding! Sean was professional, proactive, and communicative from the start, and approached our day with such care, kindness, and intentionality—it was clear he sees his work as a calling, not just a job. He’s not just a photographer—he’s a storytelling artist. He beautifully captured the love, joy, and sacredness of what God was doing in our covenant, and how special it was to share that day with our loved ones. His photos bring those moments back so vividly. He was flexible, kind, and truly a joy to work with. The quality of his work is unmatched—truly high-caliber.

I photograph weddings in Albuquerque and Santa Fe with a calm, documentary approach focused on real interactions, honest emotion, and the natural flow of the day. Timeless, joyful photographs are the foundation of my work, but just as important is how the experience feels. By taking time to understand what matters to you, I work in a way that feels comfortable and unforced—so you can stay present and walk away with photographs that feel true now and meaningful years from now.

Albuquerque Wedding Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. Guillermo and his team had a relaxed yet thorough and clear communication style that put us at ease throughout the entire process. Their work is truly magazine-worthy - modern and not at all posed. Guillermo was incredibly congenial with all of our 200 guests, and everyone commented on his professionalism and ability to manage our large, somewhat chaotic wedding party with ease. To top it off, he delivered our fully edited photos in just 4 days - an unbelievable turnaround time. We couldn't be happier with the memories Albuquerque Wedding Photography captured of our special day.

Hey, hey my name is Ali. NY-based, but working nation-wide, I'm a wedding photographer who captures experiences, genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizes precious memories. I focus on visualizing how it felt to live your wedding day, while also crafting editorializations simply for the sake of intentional, living art. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.

She was so flexible working around our hectic schedules the day of and made sure to have every picture we wanted planned and ready to go.

She also came up with a detailed schedule for the whole time spent with her, and options to choose from base off the location we picked! Due to weather, I had a freak out a couple days before the elopement. When I emailed her about my concerns, she responded within 15 minutes reassuring me she was making a back up plan and emailed a new detailed schedule with options within a few hours!

The moment we received the notification that our photos and videos were ready, our excitement was palpable. Viewing them filled us with tears of joy and overwhelming love, as each beautifully captured memory transported us right back to the wedding day. I wholeheartedly recommend JayDee and Pluvia Studios to anyone seeking top-quality photography and videography to capture their most cherished moments.

Hi, I'm Amanda! I'm a wedding and destination wedding photographer based in Dallas Fort Worth, Texas. I believe your wedding day is about more than beautiful photos, it's about being fully present and celebrating with the people you love. My goal is to create a relaxed, enjoyable experience while documenting your story authentically. From helping with timelines to fixing dress straps and capturing the moments you didn't even realize were happening, I'm with you every step of the way. LGBTQ+ friendly. Love is love, y'all.

Awarded Best of Zola
Amanda provided the perfect balance of professionalism, insight, and a personal connection to not only our wedding day but also our engagement session. She was available to bounce ideas off of, to answer about quirky questions, and to make you forget there is a camera in your face while sharing very intimate moments with your person. The packages offered were priced at a great value and included several options to make sure your special moment is captured. I felt at ease that I did not have to worry if special moments from our wedding, the love we have for each other, and the celebration with our friends and family were captured by Amanda and her team. I am excited to use her for years to come as we grow as a couple and family. I cannot thank her enough for giving us such a great gift of frozen moments in time. Thanks for everything, The New. Mr. & Mrs. Flores
