We worked with Hillary from Joy and Wander Photography for our wedding, and words can barely express how amazing she is. This was actually our second time with her, she photographe...
d our original elopement, so having her capture our full wedding day felt extra special. Choosing her again was the easiest decision we made.
Hillary is not only unbelievably talented, but she is one of the most genuine, warm, and personable people you will ever meet. She has this incredible ability to make you feel comfortable, seen, and celebrated in front of the camera. Her presence put us at ease the entire day, and she blended in so seamlessly that it felt like having a close friend with us capturing everything.
Her eye for detail is unreal. The way she captures emotion, movement, and the tiny in-between moments is something truly magical. She doesn’t just take photos — she tells your story in a way that feels honest, romantic, and timeless.
We are forever grateful for the memories she’s given us, not once but twice. If you want a photographer who cares deeply, creates stunning images, and brings a beautiful energy to your day, Hillary is the one. Joy and Wander Photography is truly something special.
Hillary was so amazing, in person and even before meeting her she was so professional. She followed up with me often in the months leading up to our elopement. We booked with her i...
n February and we're getting married in June. She got a good history of my husband and I and curated a timeline for our day for us. Which saved me so much time because all I had to do was coordinate the few guests we included into when to be there for our vows. She was so easy going it made our day absolutely stress free. On the day of our elopement Hillary came to our location exactly when she said she'd be there and spent the day taking the most amazing photos that we will cherish forever and she even came prepared with bug spray and bobby pins. Which was a life saver for us as in the moment I forgot both. She is so talented at what she does and I will recommend her 1000x if ever I needed to!
Hillary is absolutely amazing!!!! If I could give her a bajillion stars, I would! She has been just unbelievable fantastic from start to finish! She made this process so easy a...
nd was so friendly and understanding the entire time! I feel like we are friends now! Our engagement photo session was so much fun and she was so flexible with our time.
The wedding day could not have been more magical! She went above and beyond to get the best pictures I could ever imagine! She climbed on a railing at one point!! And she and Jules, her fabulous shooting partner, put together this amazing contraption to make it look like we were casting spells on each other! They really took our love for Harry Potter and ran with it in the most perfect way possible!
She truly captured every possible moment of our special day and I could not be more happy with these photos. We will cherish the photos and the magically fun experience that we had with her for the rest of our lives. THANK YOU, Hillary, for making our day so perfect!
Her photos of our wedding and engagement were amazing - we will cherish them forever. She really worked with us to capture the feel of our wedding! She was amazing at keeping me c...
alm the day of (I'm a bit of a camera shy person) and made sure the say went as smoothly as possible. She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and really helped us out with some of our day of coordination. We could not have asked for a better photographer :)
I had searched endlessly for a wedding photographer, and happened to meet Hillary by chance at a coffee shop. It was by far the best thing that could have happened! She did my boud...
oir, engagement, and wedding photos. I have never seen more breathtaking photos in my life. It was easily the best decision that we made for our wedding. She is the sweetest person and is so easy to work with, and I am thankful to call her a friend after all of this. If you are struggling to find the perfect photographer, I highly recommend Hillary!
I used Hillary Joy Photography for my wedding in 2014 and was beyond happy with the service and quality of photos that she provided. She captured the day beautifully and each pictu...
re brings me right back to the joy and emotional feelings that we all shared the day they were taken. The photo album that she created is a gorgeous keepsake that I will treasure forever!
I have worked with so many photographers over my years including my husband. We would have used my husband for our son's wedding however we wanted him to relax and be involved in ...
the whole day instead of working. With that said, the only person we trusted to do justice to our son and daughter-in-law's wedding was Hilary Joy Photography. She has such an incredible talent and really takes her time to learn about her customers wants and needs. She has an incredible eye for that perfect picture and really goes the extra mile to make sure everyone is happy. The finished product from our sons wedding was truly an incredible look at their magical day and Hilary seemed to capture every single moment! I cannot rave more about what an wonderful job and fantastic person Hilary was to work with!
Hillary was the photographer for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our decision! We didn't know Hillary at all before we contacted her about our wedding, and by the end ...
it felt like we hired a friend! She is extremely talented and takes beautiful photos that really capture the moment and the emotions perfectly! She edited and sent us our photos quickly after the event, and they looked just how we envisioned they would. We would highly recommend Hillary to anyone in need of a photographer. I would hire her again anytime!
Can't praise Hillary enough for the fantastic job she did for our daughter's wedding on an old fashion Riverboat. She got all the pictures we knew we wanted, and even more - she go...
t the ones we didn't know we wanted. She was prompt, efficient, had our pictures available, digital and printed, in a timely fashion. Thanks to Hillary we will always enjoy looking back at our photos of family and friends and relive those wonderful moments of an extremely special day for our family.
My mother in law used to work with Hillary so I have been following her work on Facebook for years. When we decided to get married with only 6 weeks to plan, we were in a rush for ...
vendors. Hillary was first on our list for photographers! Thankfully she had our date available (on a Friday night in October in MN!). We negotiated a fair price as we only needed her for ~2 hours. We aren't much for photos of ourselves and our bridal party was small, so we didn't need much. She was there at 4 pm and the ceremony was at 5:30 pm. We did some photos as a couple, some with our son, and then with family and our small wedding party. Hillary was so patient and gracious to our family and our guests. We are so incredibly amazed with the quality of the photos that she took. They are breathtaking and for a couple who doesn't really like photos taken, we are in awe of how beautiful we look in the pictures :) Unfortunately she has since moved to Georgia, otherwise we would be hiring her for our son's 2 year photos. I would HIGHLY recommend her to future brides and grooms, graduates, families, etc.
I had an indoor wedding with an indoor/outdoor reception on 08-10-13. I hired Hillary to be our photographer after hearing other high recommendations from friends and looking throu...
gh their wedding albums. Hillary was very professional to work with and arranged a meeting with my husband and I to sit down and discuss what we hoped for and expected out of her. She has a signed contract which makes every bride's mind more at ease also. :) Prior to the wedding she helped me surprise my husband with a Boudoir album. She was very comfortable to work with and created a tasteful album to present my husband with the morning of our wedding. The morning of the wedding was equally documented with both sides of the bridal party as were got ready in separate rooms. During the wedding ceremony itself I don't remember seeing Hillary but she captured very special candid pictures of the entire ceremony. The photos turned out amazing and there were pictures from every angle. After the ceremony we did outdoor pictures with our getaway car and by the woods. They were very original poses not just the traditional ones every does. Hillary stayed late into our reception and rounded off the day with pictures of all our friends and family. Our pictures were edited and returned to us quickly and were presented in a beautiful keepsake case with a personalized jump drive. If you are looking for a reliable, affordable, creative and talented photographer than Hillary is your gal. I couldn't be any happier with how our pictures turned out and the experience we had working with her!
