Knots in the Pines

ig day! They coached us through every step of the process from start to finish. They communicated so well, tracked the weather and had a plan for the big day! They packed snacks and gave up their day to start with us in the morning and then end with us at sunset! The photos are unbelievable! They capture not only the moments but the views! They were relaxed, easy going and a ton of fun! They are professional the entire time you work with them, easy to get ahold of and very VERY fairly priced!! They go above and beyond on their end to make sure your day is extra special. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a fun couple to take your special day over the top!!

versation. She was professional, took great notes, and even joined us at the venue for our rehearsal dinner so that she could scope out the location. She was a dream to work with - jumping right in to ensure we got the shots we requested. Less than a week after our wedding she sent us about 10-15 of our sunset photos so that we could enjoy them as we waited for the rest of the photos. We were so happy to receive them and can't wait to get the rest of our photos. SHE IS WORTH EVERY PENNY. BOOK HER!!!

Victoria directed us into different positions for the best photos without looking staged as the candid shots are a fav and WOW they didn't disappoint!! We also love how Joe personalizes his videography with custom music that he creates🤩 We are truly blessed to have found them and I recommend them to my friend's stationed on the main island and people visiting lol. My hubby and I are military members stationed out of Boston but decided to do a smaller wedding in Hawaii with our families. They made cross country communication simple and easy with quick response times and open communication. We'll 10/10 hire them again when we go back to Hawaii (even if we go to a different island!) Side note, they also make amazing recommendations and suggestions for things to-do, see and eat in the local area! It's not often you get such a great work ethic and personable people, dedicated to getting the best photos for each of their couples. Thanks again Joe and Victoria, we're so grateful to have met y'all!

so knowledgeable of the landscape and wildlife. You can tell the genuinely love what they do and love the environment as well. I would absolutely recommend them and they are worth every penny.

communication, planning, and quality photos. Not only that, but they were so much fun to spend time with!! We felt so comfortable with them almost as if we were old friends hanging out. Victoria spent time meeting with us ahead of time via videochat to ensure that our special day was everything we dreamed of. She didn’t have to spend so much time throughout the planning process communicating with us, but it was clear that it was important to them that we had the kind of day we envisioned. It meant a lot to us. Her and Joe are true experts. They handled our marriage paperwork, their timing of everything was impeccable (photos at various locations, timing the sunset with our ceremony, etc..), the ceremony they wrote for us was beautiful, Joe’s song for our first dance was stunning, and they knew all of the secret spots for fabulous photos. Everything was just perfect, that we couldn’t imagine how it could all be captured in pictures but these two certainly managed to do so. Our photos blew us away - these two are talented in every aspect of the elopement process. I cannot recommend Knots in the Pines enough!

n good hands. The time they spent getting to know us and the questions they asked about our lives made us feel respected and like we had known them for a lifetime already. They had everything in place for our ceremony when we arrived in Utah, so our marriage license and permits were all set. They are very communicative before the wedding day to make sure everything is perfect and planned for. Joe did a lovely job officiating our ceremony and even slid in a very heartfelt line about our elderly dog. Victoria is truly a photography wizard and made us look and feel so relaxed and natural. There are over 860 photos of our day and we still can't decide which are our favorites to print and frame. The dinner they provided for us was amazing and honestly shocking that they were able to produce that quality out in the wilderness. My wife's bouquet was flawless and added so much warmth to our photos. Ending the day with Joe playing Harvest Moon on his guitar while we danced in the moonlight was unforgettable. Choosing Knots in the Pines as our elopement planner was one of the best decisions we have ever made. Cannot recommend them enough for anyone looking to capture a special day or wedding day.

but they are just such a fun couple and joy to be around! They helped us have an unforgettable day where we could truly be in the moment, enjoy our gorgeous surroundings, and take this important step in our relationship. (AND they put up with our wild and crazy dog too). Thank you Victoria and Joe!

nd deep understanding of and passion for wedding photography. She photographed our day with a great attitude and adaptability, which of course every wedding photog should have. And of course, the images are STUNNING and truly pieces of art that we will hang on our walls and cherish for all the years to come. Our wedding was simple: all we wanted was to get married with our family there, and have good photos to keep the memories alive. Victoria far exceeded our expectations with her beautiful work. Highly recommend!

ge locations 18 hours before the wedding due to a torrential storm and washed out roads. They still made our dreams of an island elopement come true- while accommodating all of our closest friends and family. They worked tirelessly- following us to multiple locations to get the perfect shots and and their visuals are amazing. We will forever be grateful for stumbling upon them. The smartest thing you can do for your wedding is work with Knots in the Pines.

spond to us and jumped on a zoom call to really get to know us and what we wanted. I can’t express how much that meant to us. Especially since a lot of others we had talked to would only reply email or call. Victoria was ;attentive from the beginning and really gave that personal touch that took our experience above and beyond. We kept in touchmonths of planning and she reassured me every part of the way that she was scoping for the perfect places and took into consideration our dreams and wishes for that day. I will tell you she did not disappoint. When we arrived in Hawaii she had every detail planned from the Volcano to the most beautiful waterfall picked out and the final location for waterfront photos. Joe was such a calm and peaceful ordainer. He took our love story and made it into a customized ceremony just for us and his singing and playing of guitar for our first song was absolutely perfect! The small touches though is what made this day more than we could of imagined. The packing of snacks and water for me and my husband, the helping us with our hiking gear and the ceremony book along with Victoria helping us with our custom flower crown, my husbands Lei and she made a wonderful bouquet for me! It truly made us feel just blessed and like our good friends were helping us get married and make a special day just that much more special. The photos capture the beauty of that day and the video my gosh is so professionally done. We cried looking over all the photos and videos and for good reason, they capture our love for each other but also the art of how natural and gifted Victoria and Joe are in their work. We are forever grateful and if you are looking for an adventure wedding, elopement or photos in general trust me when I say Victoria and Joe are the best there is. With all the love from Austin Jon and Elena.

. Our wedding pictures turned out amazing and we would highly recommend them to anyone :)

comments from guests and the bridal party about how professional and funny she was. She also was great at the small details, helping me choose a last minute shawl that just turned out amazing. She even helped my husband figure out his boutennierre. She paid attention to all the small details and went above and beyond.

lt out of the loop. The pictures they took really captured the fun we had, highlighted all the best parts of our elopement, and could not have been more breathtaking. My husband and I had never had pictures professionally done, so we were a bit worried about it being awkward - but Victoria and Joe made everything so easy, and SO fun. Joe wrote a beautiful ceremony for us, and I could not have asked for better vows. They worked with us on what locations to take pictures at and their expertise was so greatly appreciated. My husband and I are from Alabama, and while we had been to Zion once before, Victoria really helped us narrow down where to go, the best locations, and it made the day SO much easier! The day went so smoothly, without a hitch, and it's all thanks to their diligent planning and kindness throughout the whole process. They are professional and perfect at what they do, but they're also incredible people who are easy to talk to, enjoyable to be around, and the PERFECT choice for any of your photography needs.

ur photos are gorgeous!!!!

questions, to saving the day by hand delivering a steamer to our hotel the night before our wedding, and so much more Victoria and Joe were there for us from the beginning to the end of the biggest moment of our life. They are experts, the quality of their work and the care and effort they put into their service is unmatched. I am forever grateful I found them. Our wedding day was more than we could have ever dreamed of and we have hundreds and hundreds of breathtaking pictures to remember the most special day of our lives thanks to these two incredible humans.

thing that we will never forget.

much!! We can’t imagine anyone else showing us Bryce Canyon & capturing our perfect day. It was so nice to meet you guys. We love you!!!!!!

very step of the way. I am beyond thankful to have met Victoria and Joe, they made our wedding dream become a reality.

ould highly recommend her to anyone who wants to capture not only the important moments, but also the scenery in a way that you will remember forever!

ey knew exactly how to make our fairytale engagement photos come true! Highly recommend them if you’re looking for engagement/elopment/wedding photographers!

h fun. My now husband and I traveled cross country to work with them and it was truly worth it as we could not picture our wedding day an other way.

and produced beautiful results! 2. Talented: Stunning pictures despite less than ideal conditions and shy/awkward subjects. Her use of lighting and body angles is exquisite. I can't believe how many awesome photos she delivered! 3. Charistmatic: Fun and friendly, hanging with her during a photo shoot is a good time! She pulled my fiancée and I out of our shells to get some really fun, exuberant, candid photos that turned out to be my absolute faves. She has a real talent for capturing the beauty within. Hire Victoria. You won't regret it!

ctoria did all of the hard work of finding the perfect spot by the lake the day before and scouting the hiking trails for snow. The spot she picked couldn't have been more perfect! Joe was a wonderful officiant / musician / photographer / hiking guide! It felt as if we had been friends with them for a long time. They helped to make our wedding day the most wonderful day of our lives. They were worth every penny and more, and I can't recommend them enough! If you're thinking about hiring them, do it! You won't want anyone else to go on this special adventure with!

determine the right package and what photos we'd want on our day, and she made the transition to a small ceremony and big party next year seamless. The composure and lighting of the photos is beautiful. She makes couples feel at ease, even if it's your first time meeting her. She's committed to getting every shot you want (or don't realize you want!), and is meticulous about finding the right locations for your photos. We were so impressed with her professionalism and energy. We found a real gem in Victoria and can't wait to work with her again.

al. I’ve already gotten so many compliments on it. The day was perfect and now we have beautiful pictures to share with friends and family!

me photos. And let’s be honest how many people like being in front of the camera? She was able to make both the bride and groom comfortable as she was taking their photos. She was awesome to work with in the guest just loved her. I would highly recommend Victoria for your wedding if you want a great experience with a photographer. Look forward to working with her again soon.

so a super cool person and hope we become friends. 10 out of 10 stars!! Highly recommend!

we spoke with them. They took care of all of the tedious details and put us at ease. They scouted different areas in the Uinta Mountains and planned our ceremony to perfection. Both Victoria and Joe were accommodating and confidently worked with a group of people, which is not always an easy task! We very much enjoyed their easy going, fun, and adventurous presence. From taking pictures lying down in the grass to even climbing trees! Yes, trees! They did everything they could to capture the most perfect pictures and memories. We are so thankful we found them, Victoria and Joe were the last piece of the puzzle to make our special day one that we will remember forever!

mony and it was absolutely perfect. The photography was stunning and we will cherish these photos forever. The value of this experience with Victoria and Joe is a bargain for the experience they deliver! These two seriously know what they are doing. I could not recommend more. 10/10!!!

band, Joe, are the darn cutest couple and their energy and excitement for their job is contagious! My husband and I feel so blessed to have found Victoria and Joe for our ceremony. They truly did it all - took beautiful photographs, officiated a beautiful ceremony, played guitar for our dance, picked up our flowers (side note - Apiana Blooms makes gorgeous bouquets!) and on top of all that, provided absolutely amazing company to celebrate with! Sometimes while planning your wedding you can feel as though you are just a customer to some vendors, but not with these two! They CARE!! They are in the business of making lovely memories and boy do they do it well! My husband and I had our ceremony in Bryce Canyon, and it was just pure magic. The only bad part of the experience was when we realized we had a plane ticket home from Utah and couldn't adventure regularly with this lovely couple! To say that I could not recommend this dream team enough is an understatement. My new life goal will be convincing all my friends in the Midwest to get married in the West just so they can experience Victoria and Joe's magic - and so we have an excuse to visit again!

mmediately put my fears to rest. Her enthusiasm over the phone was contagious, and she offered all kinds of advice and encouragement. Our wedding was on New Year’s Eve, and were hoping to get some photos under the Park City fireworks, but since we hadn’t ever been to the venue on New Year’s Eve, we had no idea where we’d need to be positioned. Victoria scouted the place out ahead of time, found the perfect spot at the top of snow bank, and got us several absolutely amazing photos under the fireworks! I can’t say enough to recommend Victoria. She’ll do an incredible job for you and make the whole experience painless and stress-free.

ments that made it special. Victoria delivered our dream photos on every level and truly captured the magic of the day exactly how we'd imagined! She clearly specializes in outdoor weddings, and Victoria was also professional, very reliable and responsive, prepared, and made us feel like our day was as important to her as it was to us. She's an overall great person and made us feel like we were working with a friend right out of the gate. Her pricing was also very affordable which allowed us to have great memories without breaking the bank. We would recommend Victoria 100%!

. She spent the time answering all of my questions before our session, drove quite a long way to our location, and coached us through our photo shoot (in 1 degree weather!) with extreme patience. She had incredibly unique ideas for poses and backdrops, and was so much fun to work with! Our pictures came out so beautifully and she gave us tons of expertly edited options. I feel so lucky that we got to work with her, and absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a phenomenal photographer!

photos she took were fantastic! She was great at responding during the set up, giving direction, and even letting things happen organically when my love and I had moments. I would definitely recommend Victoria - the photos turned out great, and there's a fantastic variety of traditional, serious, organic, and casual shots in the final prints.

our photos and would highly recommend her. Thank you!

o make it out there, hike a couple miles, and she took the most amazing photos! She was always quick to respond to questions, provided advice on attire, etc. She does not seem to shy away from an adventure and really did take some amazing shots that I and my fiancée will always be grateful for. I have a separate photographer for my wedding at home in Minnesota, but now I feel like I may need to take some adventure bridals with her in the future!

ains and a hailstorm, which resulted in large quantities of mud...everywhere. Without complaint Victoria was stomping, sitting, crawling and kneeling through it to take some of the most amazing photos I've ever seen. Her vivacious personality was a pleasure to be around, if she lived on the east coast we'd have her photo every holiday, birthday and get together we have. I can't thank her enough for capturing every minute of my daughter's wedding in pictures for us to cherish forever. On a scale of 1-10, Victoria easily gets a 30 from me.

ith a skillset that is hard to find. Victoria is an amazing photographer and truly understands the techniques to get the perfect photo. Not only was she able to capture the beautiful scenery but she also captured all the emotions throughout the day. The photos are endless and all showcase her talent. I'm confident no one could have captured the day the way she did and her dedication and commitment are behind that. My best friend now has the most stunning photos of her wedding day that we will look through forever. If you are considering Victoria, stop here & just book her! You won't regret it!

ur first session so she could get to know my style and research locations that fit what I was going for. She’s fun, energetic, and works so hard to make sure the photos are gorgeous. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. I need more wall space in my home now because I have so many beautiful photos to fill them!

with them and they made us feel incredibly comfortable the entire time. Great whiskey too!

ig day. Her photos are so beautiful I can't stop looking at them and she was able to capture all of the special little moments that I didn't want to forget. She also took the time to drive up into the mountains to do a sunrise couples shoot with us and the photos are gorgeous. She is too notch as a person and a professional.

ful photos but she got right in with us and our guests. On our big day we had hail, never ending downpours and mud- so much mud! Regardless of weather Victoria was on her hands and knees, standing on chairs and crawling on our muddy dance floor just to capture us and our guests in all of our glory. She even took a trip to a near by reservoir for intimate photos of me and my husband! I’m so grateful to have had her as our photographer on our big day. You’ll love her so much you’ll want to be life long friends with her, and have a full gallery to showcase your wedding pictures. If we didn’t live across the country we would no doubt hire her to photograph all of our big - and small- life events for the rest of time.
