I cannot say enough good things about Emily and Alan. We used Sweet Justice for engagement pictures and wedding pictures and could not be happier with the outcome of each. Not only do we love our pictures but we love Emily and Alan! They both have such a calming, yet fun and enthusiastic presence. My husband and I felt so comfortable and natural during our photos. Emily and Alan give you just enough guidance and posing, but allow for so many candids and time for you to just be yourselves. 10/10 recommend Sweet Justice for any life event you need captured!!
I had seen and admired Emily's work over the years through acquaintances and friends who'd had her photograph their own weddings, so when it came time for me to plan my wedding she was up at the top of the list. From the very beginning Emily was fun and intentional and we knew that we wanted to have her and her husband Alan be a part of our day. Living out of state and planning a wedding in Colorado meant we only had short windows of time to work with for scheduling our couples session and they worked with us to make sure we got something on the calendar even when it was close to the holidays. Having Emily & Alan photograph you is the easiest thing in the world because they make you feel like friends right away and the photos they take are truly amazing! When our wedding day came around they worked so well with our venue and all of our vendors, helping us stay in the moment and get to enjoy everything. We feel like investing in photos and video for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. All of our family and friends continue to be blown away by how they captured our day and still tell us how much they love looking back at the photos and video to remember the day and we couldn't agree more. I would absolutely recommend Emily and Sweet Justice Photography to anyone looking to capture the authentic and beautiful moments of their wedding day both big and small.
We hired Sweet Justice to capture our wedding day, and we couldn’t be happier without photos!! Emily and Alan are incredibly talented and professional. They made us feel so comfortable and captured our genuine emotion rather than awkward poses. They seamlessly transitioned through all the different aspects of our day and accommodated all our unique requests. You should absolutely book them! Highly recommend!
I first met Emily in 2022 and immediately gravitated toward her energy. As a fellow photographer myself, I know talent when I see it, and her work has blown me away since day 1. Emily and her husband Alan are a dream team and work together so well. They love to tell stories through their photography style, which is something I really wanted for our wedding day. Even through the unexpected rain, Emily & Alan remained prepared, calm, and professional. They hit it out of the park because my husband and I were floored once we got our sneak peeks the following week! I can only imagine what the rest are going to look like. If you want the best photos you've ever had in your life, hire them ASAP! We look forward to working with you guys again in the future!! Xoxox
Emily was initially recommended to my husband from a family friend photographer when he was looking for someone to take pictures of our proposal. We were so happy with that occasion, that it was a no-brainer to hire Emily for our wedding, with the lovely addition of her partner Alan. On our wedding day, they were professional, patient, and so supportive. Even though they hadn't been to our venue before, they crushed it and captured all of the little details, essence, and mood of the day. Emily and Alan were so flexible, allowing us to get all of our expected shots finished, as well as add extras when we asked. It's been just under a week since we had our wedding, but Emily has already sent us 100+ "sneak peak" photos and they are SO AMAZING I truly cannot imagine what the rest of them look like. I would absolutely recommend them for any photography needs, but for something as special as your wedding, their pictures are all we really have except our own memories and I will cherish their work forever.
Emily and Alan, besides being incredible and wonderful people, are easily some of the most talented ones I’ve ever met. We worked together on our 3-day Hindu+Jewish wedding and they were cheerful, supportive, friendly and professional every moment.
It was so important to me that we had a photographer/videographer that captured everything that was happening in a raw, natural way without having everyone pose or “look this way!”. Emily and Alan gave us all their time and energy to capture our wedding week exactly as we asked. Even the portraits we asked for were so natural. They captured every detail, the vibes, everything and more. Not to mention they made us look like supermodels!! :-p
We are so, so grateful for you both and have already recommended you to everyone we know. Can’t wait to work with you again!
Sweet Justice did a phenomenal job with our wedding! From the first call, Emily sounded thrilled to be working with us and kept that enthusiasm going the whole time. It made it so much more fun feeling like she was just as jazzed for our wedding as we were! We met with Emily and Alan a few weeks before the wedding to lay out key shots and they did a beautiful job capturing each one. Loved the special touches, too, like sending us a wedding box with a note and polaroids. Very happy with the level of service and would definitely recommend!
Emily and Alan are phenomenal!! Seriously talent just seeps out of their pores. We've had the pleasure now of working with them for family photos, engagement photos, and most recently our wedding photos. At our rehearsal dinner we had a slideshow of photos playing in the background and so many guests came up and complimented us on our engagement photos. In fact, we were told that we "won the award for worlds dopest engagement pics". Not only are Emily and Alan incredibly talented, but they are amazing people as well. You can't help but love them and want to be their friend. They have a presence that comforts everyone around them and keeps the vibe light and airy. I have also never met a more organized photographer. I'm basically the girl from 27 dresses at this point in my life, and I have never EVER seen bridal party or family formal portraits be done so quickly yet result in so many gorgeous photos. Leading up to our wedding we received a number of google docs to fill out to make the day run more smoothly while ensure they got the shots we wanted most, newsletters with just great wedding tips and advice, and a beautiful pre-wedding gift. We love Emily & Alan and will be using them for life!!
Emily and Alan are such a pleasure to work with. They captured all the best moments of our wedding. They ask you what you want, you tell them what you want, and you get what you asked! They are so very organized and make the day so so smooth. They also put together a great, homemade present and sneak peak after the wedding. PHENOMENAL. I would love to hire them again for another event. Love you em!
During the wedding planning process, we knew picking our photographer was going to be the most important, yet difficult decision. After viewing galleries of photographers online, it was obvious that Emily possessed something so unique and special. We met with Emily and her husband Alan, and we were set. These two captured our wedding day so perfectly. Emily and Alan captured moments from the day we didn't even realize took place. They were so quick to pick up on special things throughout our day, but also were hardly noticeable. Not only are they incredibly talented photographers, they are also the most calm, chill, and easiest people to work with. The moments they captured are priceless, and there are no words to describe how much it means to look back at these photos for the rest of our lives. Booking Emily and Alan was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. We cannot recommend them enough!!
Emily and her husband Ian are an incredible duo that captured our engagement session in Yellowstone National Park and Catholic Church Wedding in Denver, CO. Every picture they take is absolutely breathtaking and captures all the feelings behind the photo. Emily is truly so talented and worth every single penny. I will be hiring her for any type of life event going forward. She honestly was my best purchase of my entire wedding. Everyone who sees our photos are just shocked at the quality. Emily makes you feel like family right away and is the easiest vendor to work with. Hire immediately! :)
Emily was our photographer for our wedding on 9/18/21 and for our engagement photos in 2019. She is extraordinarily talented. Our photos have turned out beautifully and we have several on display throughout our home. Before our engagement session, I was so nervous to have photos taken - I don't consider myself to be photogenic and I have no instinct for posing, etc. Emily was so effective at setting us up and cueing us, so we didn't have to overthink anything. She captured both posed and candid moments perfectly. Leading up to our wedding day, I had no nerves in regards to the photos because I knew she would once again do a beautiful job.
Aside from her genuine talent as a photographer, Emily has been delightful to work with. She is so kind and fun to be around, so our photo sessions with her were truly enjoyable. I can't recommend her enough.
My husband and I LOVED working with Emily! She is a professional with a talent for capturing the essence of a moment. I love every picture she took as each of them bring me right back to the happiest day of my life. She’s excellent at ensuring all your “must have” pictures are captured and then goes beyond to learn about customs and traditions to be sure they are also captured! I can’t say enough great things about her talent, her products, & her mission regarding social justice. My wedding photos are the best lasting memory of the event!
There are not enough words to express how grateful I am for the Sweet Justice Photography Team. Emily and her husband, Alan, captured our day flawlessly. Emily was extremely accomodating and she was a joy to be around. If you are looking for someone to capture the little precious and intimate moments throughout your wedding day, Emily and Alan are the perfect pair to do so! I will forever cherish our wedding photos. Thank you so much!!
The photos speak for themselves of how truly talented Emily is at capturing beautiful moments and telling your story. But what the photos don't show is how incredible Emily is to work with during the wedding planning process...especially during a pandemic. She was not only accommodating and so supportive, but she listened to every little detail to make the day so true to us. Receiving our photos gave us the chance to relive a day so special...we were married in August and I still look through the photos every day to reminisce. She truly captured the feeling of the day and we are forever thankful for those memories.
Emily is more than just your photographer - she is one of the most important pieces of your entire wedding day. Emily was so incredibly flexible and patient with us as we went about planning a wedding in the age of COVID-19. When first meeting her, she took time to really get to know us, asked meaningful questions, and made me feel like she genuinely cared to capture our day in a way we would enjoy looking back on forever.
On the day of, Emily and her husband were quietly capturing moments that we now get to cherish and we didn't even know they were there. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera on the day of, and in every moment leading up to the big day. She walks the line of professionalism and fun perfectly, making you feel like your best friend is the one behind the camera. Emily produces high quality work that will last through the ages. We could not be more thrilled to have had her as a wedding photographer!
Loved working with Emily. She was flexible with ever changing plans and captured stunning photos. Highly recommend.
Emily is a dream to work with. I can't say enough good things about working with her. We met (before COVID) and she spent an hour getting to know me and my then fiance to make sure we were a good fit for each other. She wanted to know our story which she recorded and used to write an incredible blog post after our wedding. She was flexible with changes that happened along our wedding planning adventure due to the pandemic. Emily has a wonderful style of photography and everything feels very natural and not posed. We are obsessed!
Emily, the genius behind Sweet Justice Photography, is an Angel. As a frazzled bride, I had so much go wrong with my wedding plans changing more than 5 times due to COVID-19. Along the way, I had a sour experience with the photographer I had originally planned to use which turned out to be a blessing in disguise because it brought me to Sweet Justice Photography! I did not meet this sweet girl until the day of my wedding, which you can imagine is not ideal. But Emily is someone who you absolutely want at your wedding day. She is everything kind, positive, and go-with-the-flow. She was absolutely what I NEEDED. Emily took beautiful pictures and I can’t help but feel like they come from the beauty that she sees in everyday life moments. She made the most out of every opportunity, and my less-than-Pinterest backyard wedding. I am dazzled by both her person and her works of art. Having her capture my special day was meant to be. I look forward to using Emily for any and ALL future professional photos I will need. There are many photographers that can take a beautiful picture, but Emily captures a moment and it’s feelings. If you want a photographer who is interested in your life and genuinely telling your story, then Sweet Justice Photography is the way to go.
I absolutely love Emily! She captured our special day perfectly and we could not be more grateful! She captures the natural emotion and allows you to relive your day, over and over, every time you look at your photos. She was a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend her!
Where to begin... We would give Emily and her team 100 stars if we could. She’s was one of my favorite wedding vendors to work with. She’s on time, her contracts are professional/ digital, making payments was easy, she’s full of energy, and not to mention her photography is out of this world. We didn’t want to just have “posed” photography. we wanted a photographer that would tell the story of our wedding day through the photography. Her style is journalistic and the presentation of your wedding photos is beautifully bundled and sent to you home. So many people who both did/ did not attend the wedding commented on how her photography captured them and they could emotionally feel the day. If you want photography that literally moves you Emily is your gal!
Emily and her team were great to work with! The consultation was fun and personal. It was good to share about our story!
On the day of the team was on time and super on top of things! Oh my land we are so delighted by the photos- they captured what we wanted: a modern and hip style, just liked we asked. And we got so many gems and treasures of sweet moments together and with our people. I love so many of them. The candid moments are such treasures. They did a great job being a part of the day and also blending into the background.
Also the little behind the scenes video was so fun! I didn't think I would care about it as much as I do!
Some of the most amazing photography work you'll ever see! Emily Foss and her crew know how to perfectly capture all the moments you'll want to remember whether its goofing around before the wedding or the overflow of love during the ceremony and even the joy and laughter of the reception. Talk about picture PERFECT!
Completely blown away by working with Sweet Justice Photography! Emily and Audrey were SO fun, flexible (i.e. midday hail storm), and fit in seamlessly with our wedding day. Fabulous people and seriously beautiful pictures we will cherish forever! Emily also took the time to facetime us, meet us for drinks, and was very responsive to calls, emails, and texts before the wedding whenever I had a question. Loved loved loved working with them!
We choose Emily as our wedding photographer and I couldn’t have taken a better decision for our wedding! She and her team were the best! Me and husband wanted our photos to be non-posey and candid, and they captured those perfectly.
Our wedding photos are so unique and gorgeous. Everyone, like literally EVERYONE stocked her and her work on Instagram when they saw our photos, and asked about her.
Emily was so easy to work with and She really gave us what we wanted, or rather much more than we could ever imagine.
I am so glad we got to work with her. Plus the prints that she gave are just stunning! Thank you so much. We really have such lovely memories from our special day for a lifetime.

Emily is the most incredible human and her passion for people and capturing little moments is only part of what makes her so special. Emily is a story teller and told the story of our relationship through her blog and photos perfectly. They were the sweetest reflection of my husband and I. She captured all the little moments and emotion of us and our guests in such a beautiful way. We were afraid of looking awkward and posed and unnatural but Emily and Audrey have the most incredible way about them to make you feel comfortable and confident. I'm in love with the photos and catch myself just staring at some of them because of the quality and how much they accentuate us.. both our personality and physically. Emily is more than just a photographer, she is the epitome of joy and genuineness and artistry.
Emily and her team are the DREAM team. Emily totally captured our spirit and energy for our wedding. She took the time to hear our story and figure out what was important to us. She captured so many moments that I will treasure forever. She and her team made all of our guests feel completely comfortable and natural-leading to some incredibly candid and genuine pictures. The added wedding blog and website included in her wedding package was totalllly worth it also! She is a stellar artist with a wonderful personality-could not have asked for a better wedding photographer.
Emily and Audrey did an amazing job on our wedding photos! I'm very picky about photo quality, and they exceeded my expectations!
They are both super fun and great to work with, and I can't recommend them enough!
Emily took a day I have since wanted to live over and over and over again, and gave it right back to me to do just that. Thanks to Emily's eyes for beauty, heart for life and mad finger skills on that photograph-taking-machine-thing, I won't forget what it felt like to be so entirely in love with every single thing in the world. She captured everything that made the day so special, from the most subtle emotions to the most monumental moments, with a flair and style that didn't inhibit who we are, but amplified it. She wasn't just our photographer, she brought the party. Emily was the easiest, most "duh" choice we made for our wedding day.
We were married in October and Emily was our amazing photographer! She was incredibly professional from beginning to end and has this awesome ability to be fun and personable to everyone! Our pictures turned out incredible and I have had friends and family raving to me about how amazing they are! I loved that she had two photographers so no moment was ever missed and she always had an endless flow of poses and looks. I know it was the first time she had done a wedding at my venue and she nailed it! I really wanted a photographer who was going to be amazing at the close up details as my venue was all inside and Emily captured everything perfectly. I also loved that she sent me some of the photos right away the day after the wedding so that I could post on social media before any of my guests did. This was highly appreciated because you never know what photos your guests will post and they may not be the best! When we received our package with the final pictures it was seriously the prettiest presentation I have ever seen with prints and Polaroids and chocolate and more! I will definitely be using Emily again and would highly recommend her to any of my friends and family!
Sweet Justice Photography and the girl behind it all, Emily, are unbelievable. I watched her photography via social media for awhile in awe of her creative talent and eye for the details. When I saw she began shooting weddings and I was in need of photographer, of course she was first on my list. Emily has created a seamless form of relations and cares for your desires so deeply. It was a joy to watch her work and play a role in Sweet Justice Photography, which carries a vision for storytelling that holds a special place in my husband's and I's hearts. When you hire Emily, you are hiring so much more than a photographer; her personality and kind heart add the sweetest touch. Thank you Emily - you are a gift and we are abundantly thankful for you!
Where to start? Emily listened - she wanted to here our story. Emily was interested in what makes Luke and I unique as a couple. Emily is creative - she suggested beautiful and creative ideas during our photo shoot. She also captured natural moments of our family and friends that we will always be thankful to look back on. All around, Emily was a JOY to work with. Thank you for sharing your gifts and passions, Emily!
Emily Foss and her team at Sweet Justice Photography are absolutely AMAZING. Emily is such an artist and she captured EVERY SINGLE DETAIL of our day and our story so perfectly. Emily and Audrey are the sweetest girls and so easy to work with. So many personal touches are added to make every bride feel special.
Emily was a kind, calm, joyful presence on our wedding day! She is skilled photographer with exceptional communication skills and professionalism. We were so happy to have Emily with us on our wedding day and are very happy with how the photos turned out. We recommend her with high regards! :)
Look no further because Emily is not only the most talented photographer, but she is also so kind, creative and FUN! My husband and I will cherish our photo collection for years to come. They are the greatest gift we could have received. THANK YOU THANK YOU. I loved how we got to meet with her before and how she asked us about our love story. She was so easy to communicate throughout the whole process and I was constantly and pleasantly surprised by everything she did before and after our big day. Do yourself a favor and go look at her website and read the journals. You will be spooning for days.
I couldn’t recommend Sweet Justice Photography more. While researching a wedding photographer that we felt would be the best fit for us, we stumbled upon Emily’s website thanks to a friend. Emily was super responsive from the very beginning. I had multiple conversations with her and felt NO pressure whatsoever throughout the process. She truly wanted to get to know us as a couple and capture the heart of who we are in order to reflect that in her photos and story. Which she absolutely DID. She has unreal talent and puts these very special, personal touches into her process. We LOVED working with her and are blown away with how she captured our special day!!!
Emily was an absolutely amazing photographer! She was professional, personable, and very engaging. She met with us to discuss what kind of photos we really wanted and also hear our love story. Emily had a second photographer with her package and no time limit on the wedding day, which really affected our decision to meet with her further. What really sealed our decision was the fact that she was so passionate about genuine photography and that part of our payment to her went towards a non-profit cause as a donation, something that sits close to our hearts. She was flexible with us and did photos of our joint wedding shower instead of engagement photos since we had been engaged for a few years and wanted the shower captured more. She did an amazing job at the shower and our wedding of capturing relaxed and genuine moments with no stiffness or awkwardness. She also did small gestures in the months leading up to the wedding and also after the wedding that kept us excited for the day without feeling too overwhelmed in our overall planning process. The accessibility of the photos online so we could share them with friends and family was an amazing feature we also wanted and were able to have. Both Emily and her second photographer, Audrey, did an amazing job with our wedding and even kept people relaxed at the reception by joining in the dancing! Looking through our photos brings us back to the day and all the memories! We highly recommend Sweet Justice Photography!!! Her work and cost is unmatched!
Emily's photography is truly a work of art. She was able to really capture our style though the content and coloring of each photograph. She loves capturing the "essence" of the day and the wedding planning season, and her engagement photos, and photojournalism piece on her blog reflect just that. Because she was able to hear our story as a couple, we both felt fully comfortable in our pictures. Our photos don't look staged, but we look amazing- I don't know how she does it! She is well worth the money.
Emily is by far the best photographer you can choose for your special day. She has an incredible eye for capturing perfect moments and her joyful spirit makes it seem like you've been best friends for decades.
Emily from Sweet Justice Photography is an amazing photographer! She did our wedding photos and we couldn't be happier with them. She captured everything we asked for and more. Emily has a great personality and makes a possible stressful time into a fun and memorable moment that lasts forever.
