I wanted photos that would remind us how it felt — not just how it looked. George Street somehow bottled the magic of the day. They noticed the details, the quiet glances, the laughter, the nerves… and turned them into art. Watching my wife see the photos for the first time was one of the best moments — she lit up. That alone made it worth it. I’ll always be glad we hired them. When we’re old and gray, these photos will still tell our story.

From the moment we first reached out to Evoke Photography & Video, their communication was great. The photographer, Sarah, got everything done that needed to be done to capture our special day.

Duet was the first vendor we booked after our venue for our 8/2/25 wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process! After looking at their website and Instagram we instantly fell in love with their style. Duet’s aesthetic was 100% what we were looking for but couldn’t find with any other photographer we researched. Hanel was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process and was very easy to work with. We also took engagement photos with them in August 2024 which gave us a first opportunity to work with Mike, who was also the lead photographer on our wedding day. We are absolutely in love with our engagement shoot and all of our wedding photos and videos. The quality and quantity of everything we received absolutely blew us away - and we got all of them faster than we thought we would.

Dear Tanner and Lizzy, We wanted to take a moment to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the incredible work you did through Scarlet Oak Studio in capturing our wedding day. When we received our photos, we truly cried. Seeing them for the first time was overwhelming in the most beautiful way, and it reaffirmed how grateful we are that we chose Scarlet Oak Studio as our photographer. You didn’t just take pictures—you preserved emotions, moments, and memories we will cherish forever. For me personally, the photos were especially meaningful. Because I had to stay in the room assigned to get ready at the church, there were parts of the ceremony I didn’t get to fully witness. With all the nerves and emotions of the day, there are also moments I don’t clearly remember. Through your photos, I was able to relive every detail so vividly—it felt like I was experiencing it all over again. Each image brought back the emotions, the beauty, and the sacredness of that moment in a way I didn’t expect, and it truly meant the world to me. Your attention to detail, your eye for emotion, and the care and time you put into your work truly shine in every single photo. Scarlet Oak Studio didn’t just document our day—you told our story in a way that feels alive, emotional, and timeless. Thank you for giving us this priceless gift. Because of you and Scarlet Oak Studio, we now have something we will treasure for a lifetime—something we can return to again and again to remember one of the most important days of our lives. We are forever grateful. With immense gratitude, Julieta & Javier

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

Justin is absolutely AMAZING at what he does. My fiancé and I can’t recommend him enough! His communication and planning is 10/10. We let him know the locations we wanted to shoot at and met him day of the shoot - he jumped right into guiding us through the session (we had no idea what we were doing, but Justin made us feel so comfortable). We laughed through the entire shoot! Justin is very personable and friendly. Justin sent previews of some photos the SAME day we did the shoot. We were in love with the previews! Shortly after, we got our full portfolio - to say we are obsessed is an understatement. All of the photos are beautiful, and Justin perfectly captured us. If you’re looking for a photographer who makes you feel comfortable, is great at communicating, and delivers stunning photos - look no further than Justin.

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
