Hi, I am Jessica, Owner and lead photographer at ATP! This year marks 10 years of being in business and I still love what I do! Photography has been something I have loved since I was a 9 year old kid, I just got lucky enough to make it a career. Weddings and Elopements are import life events that we can't redo. That is just one reason I am passionate about creating classic images that can be cherished for years to come. I want clean, classic images that can stand the test of time and take you back to your big day. I want you to look at them and remember the laughter, love, and all the smiles you had to come back in a flood of joy.

Lana is by far the best photographer I've ever had the pleasure to work with. My husband and I had a good friend that did photography, but we was unavailable for our wedding date, but he highly recommended Lana and I can see why. She is so personable, and sweet. She had amazing ideas and is super accommodating. She always was quick to answer any questions I had and went above and beyond on our engagement and wedding photos.

Torches Together LLC

  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Gainesville, MO

At the age of 19 I left my small, strange hometown of Branson, Missouri to see the world. I began taking photos as a way to capture everything I was seeing. During this nomadic season, I continuously developed my style while creating as many new experiences as possible. While hitchhiking through New Zealand in 2014, I met the love of my life. Her name is Indy. After years of long distance and visa paperwork, we got married in 2019. We now are lucky enough to capture other folk's love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Henry and Indy enough. This couple captured our elopement better than I even could have imagined. My husband and I have their photos all over our walls now to commemorate the special day. Torches Together did Super 8 video, 35mm film, polaroids, and digital photos for us (I know, we really got the whole shebang). We could not be happier with any of it. Henry and Indy were so kind and easy to work with, had a calm and joyful presence throughout the ceremony, and really made us feel like we were hanging out with friends more than taking photos. It was a true joy. BOOK THEM!

He went above and beyond by helping us create a timeline for our wedding because didn’t know how weddings usually go. He worked so hard on the day of our wedding to get the best shots, and was very kind and helped us a lot with organizing order of events. He had great ideas for poses and was very mindful to get all the pictures we wanted with family members and bridal party. And even better than all of this, when we got the pictures, they came out amazing!! It’s very clear that he put a lot of hard work into making them look incredible.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace was just amazing. For a day that was overwhelming and very stressful, I cannot thank her enough for her calm and kindness. My now husband and I are usually not "photo people", as we tend to be more introverts than anything else, and she went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Her professionalism and guidance during the shoot can be described as more than stellar. I will definitely recommend her to all of my friends who will be getting married soon. During all the chaos, I was extremely thankful to have chosen her as our photographer.

Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!
