    Wedding Photos

    Nova was great to work with for our wedding! They are reasonably priced and easy to communicate with. Our photographer Carey was excellent. He was enthusiastic, friendly, and skilled, and we love how our photos turned out.

    OMG go with NOVA!

    NOVA is hands down the best. From when we reached out for information to the wedding day, NOVA was our favorite vendor. They were great to work with and they made our entire wedding day a breeze and so much fun! Carey was great with me and my groomsmen before the wedding and Gemma was fantastic with the bride & bridesmaids and at our ceremony. We had so much fun during our private shoot that our guests were wondering what happened to us. We would 100% look to NOVA for an event in the future!

    Highly Recommend

    I was nervous about posing for our wedding photos, but Maks and Florin from Nova Photos put us at ease right away with their clear instructions. From our first conversation, they kept us informed every step of the way and responded quickly to our questions. Their pricing was reasonable, which made choosing them an easy decision for our budget. On the day of our wedding, they directed us through each shot with confidence, and we felt comfortable in front of the camera because of their guidance. We'd absolutely recommend Nova Photos to any couple, or event host, looking for talented photographers who won't break the bank.

    We couldn't be happier!

    We couldn't be happier with our experience or the photos! Our photographer, Michelle, was so easygoing and fit right in with our wedding party. Van was equally professional and thoughtful throughout the entire process. Their communication was prompt and organized, which made planning feel effortless. Michelle's photos were stunning, tasteful, and thoughtfully balanced.

    AMAZING!!

    Mark and Phalen did an amazing job. They went above and beyond to capture the perfect shots. They also captured all my must have shots. The entire nova team was very helpful in answering my questions in a timely manner.


Typically, couples book us about 12 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.
Definitely. All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful. I also offer retouching services like blemish removal and teeth whitening for an additional charge.
Yes, absolutely! Our video services range in price depending on the amount of coverage you need.
Photos take at most 4 weeks to be edited and made available for viewing whereas video takes no more than 4 months to be completed!
We do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.
