I would highly recommend booking The Gold Collective right this second. Ivy was such a delight to work with from the start! We chatted for about an hour, getting to know each other and figuring out what was important to my husband and I as far ...as wedding photos goes. She was very transparent about her services and I really felt like I could trust her. It's very easy to be comfortable with her because of how friendly she is. This was extremely important to me and she didn't disappoint! Once the big day came I was pretty nervous but Ivy and the person she brought with her to assist were both kind and upbeat which helped shake the nerves off so I could relax a bit.
I can't even begin to describe how beautiful the photos turned out. I let her know that I was less interested in super posed portraits, which she respected, and though I'm sure she would have done a great job with super posey stuff, it's just not our vibe. Even so, she was able to get perfect photos with our families and wedding party that will be super memorable. She was creative with the detailed shots so I will never forget every little thing we planned. Best of all, however, were the reception shots. Sometimes, with wedding photos, there really aren't that many photos of the guests. I couldn't believe how many incredible photos there were of everyone having so much fun...it really captured the spirit of the whole evening!
To sum it up, if you're looking for a photographer who will really feel like you've somehow known forever, and if you want INCREDIBLE photos, you can't go wrong here.
