Quianna Marie Photography

le in front of the camera. Sadly, due to Covid, our big wedding had to be postponed a couple times and then ultimately cancelled. Fortunately Quianna offered to shoot our backyard elopement and I am forever grateful to have those pictures from our ceremony. It wasn’t the day we envisioned but she still captured some amazing pictures. She was always accommodating of our request to change dates (May 2020 to August 2020 to May 2021) and was extremely understanding of our ultimate decision to cancel instead of postponing another year. Although her contract states no refunds, she generously offered us a partial refund due to the circumstances. I highly recommend Quianna if you are looking for a photographer who will take amazing pictures as well as be your personal cheerleader throughout the planning process!

anyone else!

, and another family friend’s wedding. I absolutely LOVED the engagement photos my bestie shared with me, they were so dreamy. I got engaged on Saturday and called Qui on a Monday. It was perfect. She instantly felt like a sister/best friend, someone I had known my whole life. Qui is real, she loves cheeze-its, shooting at the beach, country music and going for adventures. She also is one of the most positive and happiest people I know. The morning of my engagement shoot my now husband had to go to the ER. His face was swollen and he had insane tooth pain. We still do our shoot that afternoon and Qui was able to work around his puffy face and inability to smile normally. She made him look DAMN GOOD and we love our photos. On my wedding day my make-up took forever and we were running behind, she kept me calm and kept reassuring me that she had planned for this. There’s something about her that makes you feel at ease and comfortable. At times, I struggle with telling people exactly what I want because I am scared to offend them (Qui never made me feel that way). Qui asks questions about what you want so she can deliver. She puts you first, always. She stayed late at my wedding so she could shoot the dancing, she knows what you need on your wedding day because she is so experienced. She works with the vendors, helps coordinate, will go back to the getting ready room to grab things you forgot, etc…. Basically she’s like a mother of the bride/maid of honor/ninja photographer/wedding coordinator all in one. What I’m trying to say in a long-winded way is that this woman is amazing. She will make you feel right at home and bring positive energy to your life. Quianna is simply the best.

and before I had even seen a single photo she had taken, I went right up to her to see if she was available for our date just a few short months later. FIRST OF ALL, she knew off the top of her head when she was/wasn’t available and could confirm to me without even looking in her phone that she was indeed available! Although I had yet to see the quality of any of her photos yet, having watched the way she interacted with the bride, groom and their families truly blew me away. Everyone felt so comfortable getting their photo taken, even the men! She gave me her Instagram name and told me to give her some stalking to see if her style matched what I was looking for! SECONDLY, Quianna has a beautiful lightness and airiness to her photos and although I’m more of an edgy, dark color wearing boho girl- I saw just what she was able to capture with her camera and was sold! She captures moments of true love, moments you see in a country music video or romantic comedy- but authentic. I had no doubt that she would capture my husband + my style perfectly while implementing the beautiful airiness she’s known for! She did NOT disappoint! Once it was time for our engagement shoot, I couldn’t even tell you how long we were out there. I know it was longer than we were supposed to be but it felt like 15 minutes MAX! She made the process so easy, comfortable and even fun! All of my suspicions of just how good she was, was confirmed after that shoot. Which made me even more excited for our wedding, as if that was possible?! Our wedding day came and things were running behind, WAY behind but Quianna showed up to the venue to help us finish setting up + even brought my favorite Cheez-It’s to snack on while getting ready! Our wedding was very small and intimate, 20 people including the bride + groom! Truthfully, she couldn’t have fit in with our family better! She was sure to get every “Pinterest Photo” we wanted to recreate as well as ones we never thought of!! Our sneak peek was turned around SO QUICKLY with the rest of our photos to follow right after that and as expected, she blew everyone else we looked at out of the water! Qui, thank you for everything! The Vonderwerth Family

I started dating my now husband, but we've had the same circle of friends for many years. When I first met Quianna, she made me feel so unbelievably comfortable with not only the photography aspect of planning, but the entire process of wedding planning. She assured me that she would be there to help me whenever I needed. At the time I was a couple months pregnant, so wedding planning seemed like so much to take on, but she made sure to check in with me every so often to help if needed. Not only did she photograph our wedding, she also did our maternity photos & engagement/family photos, which both came out incredibly amazing. The day of my wedding, I could tell that she was in her element & seeing the love & passion she has for what she does made me feel so confident that we had chosen the right photographer. She was fun, loving, kind & patient with all of us & was able to work around our 6 month olds sleep schedule :) I can go on & on at how incredible I think that Quianna is & I will forever recommend her! She is such an incredible photographer & I am so proud/lucky to call her a friend! I love you Qui!!!

an absolute supermodel! She just has a way to breaking down those thick walls with her words of encouragement, comfort, her laugh and overall her light. She also told me that I was lucky to marry Blake Shelton - LOL! She said my now husband looks just like him. Second shoot with Quianna Marie was a bridal boudoir I did for my husbands wedding day gift. I was again nervous and also wanted to cancel... but I showed up and again- she made me feel like a supermodel! This was the FUNNEST photo shoot I have ever been in. And I have been in a few. Not only was she cheering me on as my photographer she was cheering me on like my very own Kris Jenner! When I get my album back the day after- I legit cried! I have never seen myself so beautiful. I could not believe it was me. I told Quianna that and her reply " Girl that's all you! You are gorgeous! Sean's a lucky man." Third shoot- the wedding day! Gosh the wedding day. She captured this day beautifully. I am starting to well up with tears thinking of all of those memories captured by her. Quianna Marie your craft is beautiful, amazing and full of light. P.S. Nelly gave her shout outs on his Instagram page of some photos she took of him when she was one of the photographers for an event. THIS IS HOW YOU KNOW SHE IS A MAGICAL UNICORN!

inking that I was willing to spend whatever it took to get the best pictures, because In the long run that is what lasts forever, not a cake, not extra fancy decor, but your photos. The day before my wedding me and my mom contacted Quianna because everything that could be going wrong was and the place we were printing our family portraits from was being difficult and she not only got back to us quickly but offered to talk to them to make sure they would let us pick them up. Quianna perfectly captured every moment of my wedding day and now I get to relive one of the best days ever just by looking at them. Without Quianna I defiantly would have been way more stressed, she made sure we not only ate something but helped us stay on time with the entire ceremony, even with the make up and hair stylist being late and us starting behind schedule, she didn’t miss a beat to help with anything we needed. I highly suggest if you want a photographer that literally works magic but also connects to you as a person Quianna is the right choice. Can not wait to have you continue to shoot our family and we will keep telling people you are the absolute best.

y ALL talk about how much fun they had, how comfortable and secure they felt and how incredible their photos turned out! I was a bit nervous at first but the second I walked in the door Quianna's smiling face and bubbly personality were there to greet me and make me feel right at home. We had a great time with lots of laughs and she made me feel so confident and secure. I would highly recommend a boudoir shoot for any future bride, new mom, weight loss goal-reacher, or really anyone who wants to feel good about themselves and take some really attractive photos! I am happy to talk to anyone considering shooting with Qui, I cannot recommend her enough!

o show the couples personalities/love for each other. Upon meeting her, we knew she was the one! Her bubbly personality combined with her ability to calm any nerves we had regarding the wedding day, were two of the many reasons we chose her! Our wedding day would not have ran as smoothly if it were not for her. She arrived early and got right on it! She was constantly asking if we needed anything or if there was something she could help out with. Nana and I are so grateful for Quianna. She goes above and beyond for her couples and it shows in her work. We can now say that she is not only the best photographer out there, but also an incredible friend. One more thing, always do a first look! That special time for just you and your partner are really special and the photos from the first look are everything! We love you Qui!

bridesmaids and got to know us in the short time we would be spending together! She wasted no time in getting detail shots as we were getting ready and throughout the day, kept us on time! Having been a bridesmaid before, I was anticipating having to stand for quite a while in heels (and in the San Jose summer!) but Quianna was super efficient and kept us laughing and moving the whole time! As a result, her pictures were absolutely beautiful! And as if she wasn't busy, a batch of sneak peaks were ready the following day! I also appreciated her attention to detail, even doing a 'hairtie check!' on the bridal party to ensure we hadn't forgot to remove our hairties from our wrists! Needless to say, I cannot recommend her highly enough!

nce and calm that every bride & groom would want on such important day. You're professional and such a talented lady as was the other photographer on your team. I will definitely recommend you and your team for all of our photo needs. Thank You, Patti Alosco (Mother of the Groom)

ily and friends. There were even parts of the day that she caught that we didn't even know happened! Hands down recommend her photography! She'll be the best investment of your day!

his year. She puts her couples first and you can see the joy in her face as she gets her shots. As the videographer it was so easy to work with her. We were able to bounce ideas off of each other and get some amazing footage, and I know she got great photos as well. It was an honor to work with such a talented photographer and I hope I get the chance to work with her many more times.

d (I had a sneak peek at wedding photos the very next day!) and the quality could not be better! I have received SO many compliments on my wedding photos (the most compliments on anything wedding related other than my dress!). She is up for anything you have in mind, but will take the reins as well if that’s what you prefer! She treats her couples like gold and will continue to do so way past your wedding!

s someone that was born to work with wedding couples, and to make their most important moments solid memories that they can look back on for years to come. We worked with Quianna on an engagement shoot, Wedding day shoot, as well as a private boudoir shoot as a gift for my husband. All 3 sets of pictures came out AMAZINGGGGGG. She is professional, but is also the kind of person you want to go grab a drink with once the shoot is over. Quianna is more than a photographer. She is someone that you will become friends with, and someone who will be there to help during the many stressful planning months. She's not there for just a paycheck, and to do what her job requires. This is what makes her such a valuable asset to your Wedding vendor team. I was blessed to find her, and I cannot wait to work with her again for any and all life events that come our way! Qui we love you!!

graphy hands down!

. She takes such natural and beautiful photos, and is very good with her camera settings! She would show us photos straight from her camera that were gorgeous. Her technique is so on point, that I doubt she really has to touch up photos after the fact. That all means that you get many IG worthy photos that look amazing right off the bat. We loved working with Quianna so much that we wanted to book her for another event, but she was booked. Understandably so because she is wonderful! Highly recommend her!

sed to. I recommend her to everyone I know! She took my sisters engagement and wedding photos as well and they blew me away! She is top notch!

g photography!! Not only a talented photographer, Quianna is a pleasure to be around. She captured our engagement photos and I booked her for a Boudior shoot prior to my wedding. Our engagement shoot was such a blast! She was patient, poised and tremendously helpful when it came to posing. She captured our love and personalities perfectly. She was extremely easy to talk to and took the time to follow my Pinterist inspiration board prior to the shoot. Therefore, she knew exactly the style we were looking for. Quianna was also very prompt in getting us our images. We were absolutely in love with them and everyone we show them to are blown away! Quianna created a beautiful photo book using images from the Boudoir shoot. I gave this my husband as a pre wedding gift. He was beyond ecstatic! Her bubbly personality helped make me feel so comfortable and natural. It was as if a lifelong friend was taking photos. This helped ease my nerves and boost my confidence. This shined through in the images she captured. Receiving the photo book put a huge smile on my husbands face the day of our wedding! I highly recommend Quaianna's photographic services. If you are getting engaged, married, or want to take some special photos for your honey STOP you have found your photographer. Quianna it is! You will definitely be doing yourself a favor if you work with her! Thank you Quianna!! We were truly lucky to get to work with you!! Alison & Nick Kite

kes you feel like you have been friends forever. She is super responsive to all emails and you can truly tell she cares so much about her work and the photos she will capture for you. So far we have just had her for our engagement shoot, but cannot wait for her to shoot our wedding. My fiance and I tend to be more camera shy, and I can tell you we did not feel nervous at all with her providing direction for us.

e for photographing weddings that shines through in every interaction you have with her. My fiancé and I are not the most comfortable in front of the camera but I guarantee if you were an outsider looking in on our engagement/wedding shoots you would think we had done this a million times before! Quianna does an amazing job of providing direction on how to pose and her positive feedback and exclamations like "magic is happening!" made us feel so comfortable. We couldn't believe we actually had FUN taking so much many pictures and its all thanks to her. I could go on and on about how much I love Quianna and 100% recommend her for any photography needs. You will love your photos and also love her spirit! Thank you again Quianna!

was settling to know that even when I was in the room at the resort getting ready and preparing to marry my other half, moments with the groom & groomsmen, moments with family & friends, & even beautiful still photos of the resort/beach were being captured. That is the definite reason why I can now, and forever forward, look at the photos from that perfect trip and be completely propelled back to those 'once in a lifetime' experiences. Not to mention, Quianna is one of the sweetest, most considerate...straight AWESOME people I've ever known!!

rson for the job! We’ve used her for our engagement, wedding, family, and newborn pictures. We wouldn’t trust anyone else to capture these special moments for us!

nd booking process was super painless! She communicates quickly and effectively, and she listens to your ideas and concerns as well. We have only done engagement photos with Quianna so far (wedding is next summer), but we were blown away by the photos. Honestly, we have never looked better! We are incredibly lucky to have Quianna as our photographer - we now say that she is our photographer for life!

nd see her smile and laugh... its contagious! Lol The pictures came out beyond amazing! They blew our minds away and cried when I saw them! Lol I will definitely be using Quianna again. Thank you so much for your expertise, professionalism and great and positive attitude! We love you! 💗

endly personality shined through. After a quick meeting with her at Starbucks I knew she was the one who was going to capture our big day!! Every moment from the planning, engagement photos, boudoir photos, and of course the big day, Quianna made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We had all the confidence in her ability to capture us a couple and love we share. Any bride who is stressed and overwhelmed with choosing vendors can agree that being able to take a sigh of relief and trust that your photographer will handle it, is one of the best feelings! I could rave about Quianna for pages, but her work speaks for itself! Highly recommended!

uianna has a wonderful energy and down to earth presence. She definitely has a passion for her work as a photographer. She listened to us and connected with us and made the day of taking pictures really easy. You spend a lot of your day with your photographer, so having someone you connect with and don't have to worry about is a huge deal. Quianna is just that person. She's great at guiding folks into great pictures and also is so open to your suggestions as well. She got all the details that I wanted and the important shots. I highly recommend her for any photo needs you might have. If you're skeptical, at least take the time to meet with her and see her work. You won't be sorry. We love our pictures and we're so glad we chose her as our wedding photographer!

eling overwhelmed with Timeline and was also so calm, cool, and collected and had a plan for everything. Quianna even came with my Fiance and I to do some destination engagement photos. When I told her I really wanted photos in the snow she was so quick and excited to jump into the task, research locations, and coordinate with me on what my vision was. Needless to say, my engagement photos are greater than anything I ever could have dreamed of and are something I LOVE to show everyone. Quianna is far more than just a wedding photographer -- she really invests herself in her couples. As grateful and I am for her, I know she is just as grateful for us and it's the best feeling to have walking into the biggest day of our lives and knowing that Quianna wants this day to be perfect for us. She has been flexible, patient, and so willing to answer any questions that I've had. In fact, she even went as far to answer questions about other vendors recommendations, etc. while she was on vacation and in the early hours of the morning. Quianna has made this entire process feel SO special. Once you get down to the last few months of wedding planning NOTHING seems special and EVERYTHING seems stressful. She is definitely a vendor that I feel like I absolutely have nothing to worry about. I would recommend Quianna to anyone and I absolutely, 110% trust her with the most important photos of my life.

experience and makes people feel so comfortable around her. I highly recomend Quianna for all your photo needs!

ous job she did and how incredibly kind and professional she was the whole day. We are SO lucky we picked her to capture our big day :)

at I wanted. She’s there for you every step of the way throughout your engagement, and truly does care about you and your big day! She’ll even get you a sneak peak of your wedding photos the next day! Thank you for capturing all the right moments on our special day.

uded when booking your wedding with her, and then she made our wedding day absolutely perfect. She and her teammate were running around all day capturing beautiful photos we are so happy with our investment in our wedding pictures that we cant wait to share with our children one day. Thank you so much Q! Love Jasmine and Joe

lad we did because the whole experience of working with her was seamless, professional and even fun! Our engagement photo session was both fun and excellent warm-up for our wedding day, so we were more relaxed about getting photographed on the big day. Quianna's enthusiasm and encouragement really put us at ease. She helped keep things on the timeline during our wedding day which was a huge help. Quianna delivered the photos in a timely manner and we were incredibly pleased with the finished product!
