VILD Photography

ankful that they documented our big day! You can't go wrong booking them to photograph your wedding.

We're still pouring through the full collection and can't believe how many great shots they got -- both organized photos, as well as awesome candid ones. Not only did the photos come out great, but Rob and M were just a joy and so fantastic to work with. They were highly responsive, super SUPER organized from the moment we hired them, were familiar with the venue and just made the wedding day go that much more smoothly. We appreciate all they did, are so happy with the photos and, again, would highly recommend!

e with wedding photographers!) M was also incredibly prompt with her email responses and offered a lot of helpful advice throughout the wedding planning process. Our photos turned out GORGEOUS and we could not recommend Rob and M any more!

horoughly enjoyed reading through it leading up to our big day. They were specifically helpful in providing vendor recommendations, navigating the marriage license application process, and creating a timeline. I was worried that our timeline was going to be really tight and it was going to have me stressed on the wedding day but Rob and M helped us put together a smooth timeline and kept us on track the whole time on our wedding day. They kept us so at ease throughout our wedding. They were communicative and responsive, subtle, professional, and personable. They got us a preview of our pictures so quickly and they did such a beautiful job. We can't wait to see the final product! Definitely recommend VILD for your wedding, you will be so happy!

xpectations! We met Rob and Erica in person on the day of the wedding, and it was like we had been friends planning this wedding together all along. (something I didn't realize was important at first when choosing a photographer, but having someone you're comfortable with and knows what you're doing when you have no idea is such a huge part of the job!) When we hired them, we ended up postponing our wedding a second time, and they were stil SOSOSO accomodating. And then the actual photos!!!! I've memorized them at this point with how many times I've looked at them. I've never felt more beautiful in a photo and they captured the dance party so well which was such a huge thing for me. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, I'm so grateful we had VILD on our wedding day, I wouldn't want anyone else. Rob, M and Erica sure know what they're doing!!! book them! now! before they're all booked up, you won't regret it!

ke the stress off of planning an elopement (in less than 6 months!) due to COVID postponing our big wedding (again). We also especially loved that they offered a second shooter for film photos (Erica is MAGIC), because film means a lot to us! Overall, just had the absolute best experience on what was such a lovely day. We will cherish these photos forever.

fficiating in addition to taking beautiful photos. The end result was perfect. Thank you guys for making our day amazing!

ow factor’ and detail. Communication was seamless and prompt. Pricing is fair (I’m a spreadsheet bride!) If you are looking for a wedding photographer, I highly recommend VILD.

eel comfortable in front of the camera, are so easy to talk to and clearly love what they do. Leading up to the wedding, we would get helpful check-in emails with suggestions and reminders - and did I mention this was all during Covid?? Rob and M would offer to help in any way that they could, e.g., new venue suggestions, and were incredibly flexible when we did eventually have to change our date and venue. On the wedding day, Rob and M were professional, prepared with a schedule, and knew all the amazing spots to take us for couple's portraits and sunset photos. We had so many guests tell us how awesome our photographers were, evidenced by when our bridesmaids formed a dance circle around Rob and he went with it and danced along too! Having Rob and M as our photographers felt like having good friends there with us that also happened to take amazing pictures. We got our sneak peak of 21 images by the time we woke up the morning after our wedding and were blown away with not only the delivery time, but the quality of the images. We received our full gallery 7 weeks after our wedding and are so thrilled with the results! We can't wait to share it with our family and friends! Like I said before, it's clear that Rob and M love what they do, and it shows in their product. They're the best choice for a wedding photographer, and we'd 100% make a trip to Tahoe just to go have another session!

M are the nicest couple and make you feel so comfortable. I could not be happier with how our elopement turned out. Stop looking for a photographer and book VILD. Best decision I ever made.

iety. We’ve only received the preview (and it came SO quickly) but it already has exceeded expectations and brought tears to my eyes. I think my husband said it best - whenever we thought in our head “oh this would be a good pic” Rob or M would be there snapping. I truly cannot recommend them enough.

el and suggested a perfect timeline for our day, which relieved so much of our stress. And they sent us preview photos the very next day! Highly recommend!

r for those action shots, and M being on top of EVERYTHING I didn’t even know we needed! Seriously the BEST duo you could ever ask for. Their photos are absolutely stunning, and they have a way of truly capturing the essence of moments in photos. I am so thankful we had the opportunity to work with them for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. They made our day so magical, and gave us memories to last a lifetime!

with!

00/10 we totally recommend!

I can honestly say that M was the one who kept our spirits lifted. She helped us entirely replan... even when we thought we couldn’t make it (with travel restrictions) Rob & M made the drive down to Mammoth to let us know the roads that were open so that we could make our elopement work. We split our shoot and did half family shoot, half elopement photos. Besides having the most encouraging, loving hearts - they are INCREDIBLE photographers! They know how to perfectly capture the landscape and all of the natural family moments without it feeling like a “photo shoot”. I couldn’t have imagined getting the photos that we did - especially the way they utilize the natural lighting. That is just pure talent. We only shot for a few hours, but the diversity in the photos is something that I can’t explain in words, they really have an eye for creativity and making that one session look like it was multiple days/shoots. We will be hiring them again when we get to have our “real” ceremony and I get to brake out my “real” dress - but they made grocery store flowers & an Amazon dress look like it was a pricey/dreamy shoot! Rob & M still managed to help us have our dream day, even when I thought it wasn’t possible! Don’t question this decision anymore - they are worth your hire!

on Valentine’s Day for just the two of us! This is where Rob & M come into play... I went on Instagram and typed in Lake Tahoe elopements and Vildphotography caught my eye! I emailed them and not even joking.. 5 mins later I received an email back from M! I told her we had no idea what we were doing or how to do it but we wanted to get married on Valentine’s Day..! Long story short, we got married yesterday, 02-14-2021 in Lake Tahoe, on a rock with some snow flurries and the most amazing view anyone could ask for! M officiated and Rob snapped away with the camera. We read our vows, we laughed, I cried, we kissed and hugged A LOT.. it was simply perfect!!!! Rob and M were definitely our best find and without their quick response, our spur of the moment idea would have never happened! Also, their work speaks for itself (@vildphotography via IG). It’s rare to meet someone who is a master at their trade and is not only passionate about their work but making sure the people they are photographing are really enjoying their day! We could not be happier with our wonderful photographers!!! Thank you both a million and we cannnnnot wait to see the rest of the pictures! Such an epic day ❤️!!

t anymore cause I did that, I booked and paid a photographer but I wasn't confident so I did message them last minute and good thing they are available ( because it is weekdays). All my photos are more than amazing. Thanks guys! You are deserving with all your high rates and great reviews.

reached out to them for our elopement! M was so responsive to our emails, and really helped us plan a special and romantic day for our wedding. They went above and beyond to scope out locations for our ceremony, and helped figure out backup plans in case the weather was bad. We really lucked out with our December wedding, because the weather was PERFECT. Rob and M made our day so incredibly special - they are so kind, easygoing, and friendly. It was like spending the day with really good friends. Just like our engagement photos, our wedding photos absolutely blew us away!! Our photos are GORGEOUS - Rob and M are absolute pros.

say, we went from stressed to overjoyed in no time! And what a dream team they were on our big day. Very professional, so so easy to work with, super fun, great pricing, and honestly stunning work! We got so many compliments from our guests and wedding party that they were the most easy going photographers they've ever been involved with. We've only got the sneak peaks back so far, and getting back the full album may just be the highlight of the year for us - besides the big day, of course :) THANK YOU TIMES A MILLION for being a part of our special day. We will forever cherish these snaps.

wildfires in Northern California and M kept us calm and focused throughout the entire process. During the wedding, Rob was EVERYWHERE! His camera was clicking constantly and I'm so excited to see the final result. They truly had a wonderful vision for our wedding backdrop. I've seen the previews - they're breathtaking and exactly what I was hoping for.

ative, and a professional photography team. They made the entire process very smooth, keeping us on schedule, and even recommending great local dinner spots and a pet boarding so our pup, Basil, could be part of the ceremony. ✨ Magical moments were captured — great lighting, framing, angles — an artistic eye we appreciate so very much. 💃 From getting ready, to cake cutting, to epic shots overlooking Lake Tahoe, you name it, every moment was captured. Rob even got awesome dance floor shots of everyone! 🕑 The wedding day goes by so fast. VILD was even there to capture the moments we weren’t able to be part of — guest entry, interactions, event space details, and getting ready group shots. ❤️ We love looking back at our special day — Rob and Marie, thank you, thank you, thank you! 💌 For those tying the knot, congratulations! Now do yourself a favor and message VILD Photography

s and timeline were invaluable as were planned a wedding from another state. We worked with their associate photographer Erica who was a DREAM. She showed up early on the wedding day, ready to shoot! We had a blast with her going to different locations throughout the day from the lake front to the meadows to the ceremony site. Most importantly she made us feel at ease in front of the camera and captured the day so beautifully. Do yourself a favor and stop looking...hire Vild for your wedding...they won't disappoint!

~2-3 weeks before we had wanted to elope with varying dates- she responded right away and was super accommodating and friendly right off the bat (our original date/destination was closed due to Covid-19). After some talks with my then fiance, we decided to go with them, and we are so glad we did! M answered all of my pre-elopement questions putting my nerves at ease (especially as it came to location, since we were new to the Tahoe area and needed helping scouting an in-nature, free venue). On the day of the elopement/intimate mini-wedding, they arrived a few minutes earlier than anticipated to scope out our hotel and meet us, and they were so patient and friendly once again- never pushing us to keep a strict timeline, but rather letting things unfold as they come naturally. They led us in a streamline processional of sorts to the location and even had walkie-talkies to seamlessly arrange our first look. All our 11 guests raved about their professionalism, talent and easy-going nature (calling them "a power couple")! M officiated and Robert was the photographer- he even got us our sneak peaks less than 18 hours after our ceremony ended. We got our wedding pictures earlier than expected too (I've heard normal expectancy is at least 6-8 weeks), they delivered in 4 weeks! All in all, it's to say that we absolutely love our photos- the lighting and editing style is gorgeous and I actually feel really beautiful looking at these pictures (which as a bride is one of the goals). They made us and our guests feel completely at ease and things were so effortless and smooth (which is not something you can normally say for a wedding I feel). I absolutely would recommend them a thousand times over!

ich REALLY translates through the photos they take). Our friends and family are still gushing that they've never seen better wedding photos EVER. And the best compliment is how happy we look in them, which is a testament to the unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience that M and Rob provided and then captured on camera. We had originally hired Vild Photography for a small family ceremony up in South Lake Tahoe, and M helped coordinate all the details (itinerary, location, etc.). When COVID-19 happened, we quickly pivoted to an elopement, and M couldn't have been more supportive and accommodating. In hearing what we wanted out of our day, M and Rob scouted an amazing mountaintop location. We spent our wedding night drinking champagne and watching the sun go down. The entire evening was an adventure and we are still floating on Cloud 9 that we got to celebrate our wedding the way we did, in such a memorable, intimate setting. We NEVER would've had this experience without M and Rob. We cannot sing their praises enough. We will treasure these photos for a lifetime. You will not hire anyone better.

to let me know they were available and was very easy to communicate with to figure out what would work best for our wedding. Immediately I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders when I found this duo. They arrived at the wedding site on time and found great places to take photos pre, during and post ceremony. M was reassuring from before I even booked and continued to be flexible and helpful throughout the weeks, day and hours leading up to the wedding. The preview shots they sent us the next day (!!!) are stunning. I could not have ever imagined having such amazing memoirs from our wedding. Rob and M were laid back yet professional and our families loved having them there. Rob and M know what they’re doing—- if you want somebody to elegantly take charge of documenting your wedding in the most beautiful way I would 100% recommend Vild!

pleasure to work with and our photos cane out amazing! I would recommend this team a million times over if I could!

to a blizzard and COVID-19 (just before official shut-downs started), and the VILD team not only maintained flexibility, but helped us troubleshoot as they were more familiar with the area. I think our wedding day would have been much more stressful had it not been for VILD, and I am truly appreciative of what they did for us and the beautiful moments they captured. I wholeheartedly recommend VILD.

the photos, and I can guarantee that they will be some of the most beautiful photos you’ve ever seen. Because of their extensive experience with outdoor shots, they were able to capture the best natural lighting. Couldn’t recommend them enough.

to photograph our wedding! Thanks again Rob and M - you guys are incredible and we will cherish the moments you captured forever.

ed with our schedule and timeline, with their help the day went just how we wanted. They got some amazing shots and we’re able to scout out some beautiful locations at our venue. Rob and M were also great people to have at the wedding and be around throughout the day. We are so happy with our choice of VILD photography for our wedding!

. It was all amazing and very professionally done! Thanks guys!

er seen such honest beauty in the detail of the moments that these two capture. THEY ARE TRUE ARTISTS. Not to mention how well they managed time as well as the versatility in all the different shots. They took the stress off of us by having a schedule of events of where and when requested shots would take place, so we never had to worry about missing out on a moment. Like I said I am truly their #1 fan because they were an absolute dream to work with and the quality of their photos really speak for themselves.

he camera and made our engagement shoot fun. It was like we were hanging out with our friends, but we got some great shots out of it! Our wedding day they showed us even more so what a great team they are. Rob caught most of the shots, while M smoothly brought everyone together. And that’s not to say M didn’t get some great shots. When we got our wedding photos back we were surprised at some of the shots because we didn’t even realize she was there! They weren’t only amazing to work with, but our images are WOW WOW WOW! It is so hard to describe just how much we love our images. Our images are true quality. Rob and M are the full package! They are kind, fun, quick to respond when contacted, and provide beautiful memories for years to come. I wouldn’t just recommend them to everyone I know, I would urge them to use this great photography dream team! They are wonderful!

k you so much! Lindsay and Levi

, and even gave me suggestions on the best times and areas to pop the question. I had to coordinate the surprise proposal from Colorado, but the communication and coordination was really easy with VILD. When the day came, I was incredibly nervous that I would tip my fiance off if she saw photographers on the beach. M and her husband did a phenomenal job of "hiding in plain sight", which was really important to me. They caught the big moment with some spectacular shots! The photos turned out amazing - both M and her husband found spots with incredible lighting, made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and were really creative with their shots that led to a wide variety of options for us to choose from. On top of that, they turned around a few of them for us within a few hours that we could share - really above and beyond stuff that makes all the difference. Could not be happier with my experience and would HIGHLY recommend VILD photography!

work with them this summer. We didn't want the photo-taking to be a focal point but of course still wanted some great pictures to remember the day. They did a fantastic job of capturing the day as it happened, authentically, and making us feel at ease the entire time. Many of our friends and family told us our wedding photos were some of the best they had ever seen. They couldn't have captured the people or the nature/venue better. Best decision ever choosing Rob and M!!

re on the same page the day of. They helped calm any nerves that come with your wedding day and being in front of the camera- they are so raw and relatable. We got married in the mountains above Lake Tahoe, and we loved how they captured the pure beauty of the location in the photos as well. Thank you M and Rob for helping make our wedding day unforgettable!

ll. From us, the music we played and even when clouds rolled in ( I guess photographers like clouds...lol ). Thank you for making the best day of our lives a great memory we can now look back. Leslie & Scott ❤️

lso did a fantastic job with our more formal portraits. Really, those things speak for themselves when you look at their work. What you can’t see is how relaxed and natural they are in their work, and how that translates to amazing photos for you. Because of them, I have so many images with my husband and family that I will be able to look back on, and I am so happy with the incredibly special and sweet moments they captured; they truly captured the essence of our incredible day. A side note should be that their pricing is incredibly competitive. I have to imagine that will be going up, as their work rivals those we spoke to who charge far more (and who work as individuals, rather than a duo). I have already spoken to my husband about flying back to work with them when we have children. I would recommend them, in the highest regard, to anyone. Thank you so much, Rob and M, for everything!

ly photos, wedding party, and first look - to their stress free guidance throughout the experience to capture the absolute best pictures possible on our special day. It only took 2 weeks for us to access our gallery of ~800 photographs, and the quality is out of this world. They are extremely professional and totally understood the aesthetic we were going for having a forest wedding. If you plan on taking pictures outdoors, and want folks that love nature - this is the best pair money can buy. For their product, they are extremely affordable. Can’t thank them enough. Amazing pictures, thank you.

ey scouted out our engagement shoot during a snow storm in Lake Tahoe. At first, I was so nervous being in front of the camera but they made me and my husband feel so comfortable and at ease. M had brought a blanket for me, which showed the thought they had put into the session long before it started. The end result was magazine worthy pictures, that nearly melted not only our hearts, but every person we shared them with as well. M kept in contact with us the days leading up to the wedding and nailed down every detail. Once her and Rob heard it would be raining during our ceremony, they even showed up a little early to make sure they captured some pictures of our venue before the rain came. They are always hunting for the perfect shot!! And our wedding pictures are absolutely STUNNING. You wont be able to find a better duo than Rob and M. What impresses me most is how much raw talent they have to capture the most meaningful moments. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and we are so glad we had them as our photographers!

nes, family wrangling, and everything in between. The day of, they were a calm and collected presence which was very helpful for the whole wedding party. And best of all, their photos are STUNNING. Not only do we look so happy in our portraits and candids, but our guests are pleased with the wonderful photos of them, as well. We have truly beautiful photos to remember this day of our lives. I highly recommend this great team.

ot an adventure race we were doing on Saturday and then our wedding the following day. The whole wedding day was quite a blur, but they put us at ease and made sure they got all the important shots. Only 2 weeks after our wedding we received over 600 flawless digital images from our wedding weekend! We couldn't stop smiling and crying over just how incredible the photographs were. They managed to perfectly capture so many moments of joy and love. They truly have an eye for both adventure & wedding photography. Despite the last second request, Rob & M went above and beyond to accommodate us in our time of need. They are a fantastic couple with hearts of gold and talent to match!

I saw the photos, they looked so natural and seamless! What amazed me the most was how many of the photos I got back that I loved! Instead of running into the issue of not liking any of the photos to frame, we have too many that we want to frame. Lets just say it's a good problem to have. The best part of the shoot was the location. M and Rob suggested the location, and took us on a little hike up to these gorgeous cliffs at the most perfect time of day, so the light was soft and the view was brilliant. This is exactly what we were looking for - to capture our love, surrounded by nature. It was perfect! I couldn't be happier with both the process and the product. Also, seeing these photos made me feel so confident and camera ready for when the big day comes (engagement photoshoots are great practice, we've learned!). Thank you, both of you. You are a great team and we truly appreciate everything you did for us!!

Who goes by "M") was warm, yet completely professional and top-notch. My husband and I were planning a very casual Lake Tahoe wedding. We had a lakeside ceremony, with a reception that took place in the backyard of a local brewery. Though I was excited for my big day, I was a bit nervous that such a low-key wedding may have a lack of "magic" in our photos. When reaching out to Rob and M, I let them know what our vision was for our wedding and our hopes for amazing pictures, and their response warmed my heart. Their excitement around the vision of our wedding left me feeling reassured, and their promise to give a sense of ease to the big day made is apparent the VILD Photography was the match for us. Our wedding theme was a Lakeside Shindig with "Beer, Brats, and Music" -- We wanted a fun, light-hearted atmosphere, and our hope was that this would read in our photos. Rob and M made magic happen! Our photos turned out to be everything that we wanted and more. Rob and M were comforting, flexible, yet knew when to rally us when needed. Our photos show the happiness, love and laughter from that day - each photo is completely authentic in it's own way. It's been a few months now and we STILL have friends and family reflecting on our photos! If you want a team of photographers with a sense of heart and understanding, look no further! VILD Photography is your best best! Thank you Rob and M! -Ashley & Joe

staged. They took awesome pictures of all over our guests and were able to capture each and every little moment so well!

artfelt moment and all of the fun of the reception. Not one person that attended is missing from the pictures. The portraits and wedding party/ family pics were beyond beautiful as well. They were able to direct my crazy bunch and captured some incredible shots. They were able to put a really fun twist on the pictures of everyone dancing that really shows just how much fun we had that night. I don’t have enough words to describe how great these guys are. Really. I am more than satisfied with their work. They created something so special for us and we are so grateful.

ngly mundane subjects look like they belongs on the front cover of a magazine! Not only will he capture the ceremony and the microexpressions on the guest's faces, but he captures the intangibly palpable feeling of love that lingers in the air. Seriously these two make the finest team I have ever met. M has such an incredible perspective for making portraits and group shots so easy and fun, for finding the cute kid playing with their shoelace, or the timing on when the light will reflect through the petals of a bouquet. It blows my mind every time I look at our photos to know that Rob was able to make them look so good. I tear up when I look at them because they are almost too perfect! They bring me right back there. Utter perfection. And the SERVICE! Take advantage of as much time as you can with these two. They will distill the unforgetable moments of your wedding day and provide a book of memories you will cherish forever. I can't recommend them enough. You COULD get your neighbor's kid to hold his iPhone vertically and get a half-decent picture of his thumb, or you could make the correct choice and hire the most professional, wonderful photographers you will ever meet. Trust me. If you are on the fence with these two, let the photos speak for themselves!

r creative vision was perfect for the photos we wanted. When the sun didn't quite come out during our freezing winter morning engagement shoot, Rob was immediately accommodating and flexible in taking some alternative shots which turned out beautiful. His level of service and passion for capturing what we envisioned was more than I had expected - and something that continued on the wedding day. Having Rob and M capture our wedding day was lovely. M was great at coordinating, and especially with our wedding day communications and timeline that were a bit fluid with a few changes in the groomsmen's location. They are such a dynamic team and so much fun. They were seamless/unobtrusive during the ceremony and reception and captured all the shots we wanted. I received numerous compliments from our family members at their professionalism and presence. After the wedding, we received our gallery SO FAST!! It was amazing and everyone has loved our photos. Our wedding day turned out perfectly. Their work speaks for itself - each shot highlighted how much fun everyone had. We loved working with Rob and M and I would highly recommend them!!

where to get great shots. We were concerned about the smoke from the wildfires, but the pictures turned out beatifully. They were so excited about the light! That made us feel at ease, and rightfully so. We will cherish our wedding photos forever and are so grateful we chose VILD photography.

autiful this moment is. Rob and M, did exactly this and more. Together, their team Vild Photography covered all the bases. They helped us feel and look our absolute best, they were professional, fun and loving. Full of great ideas and passion, they picked us up and drove us to a beautiful peak overlooking Lake Tahoe. We had our backpacks full of goodies for the shoot, they provided the expertise on how to act natural and just be ourselves. They had flowers and extras we hadn’t thought of that really made our photos look wonderful. With such a great eye for detail and so many different ideas and poses…. we laughed and loved and now we have photos to cherish forever. I am so grateful they shared their talent with us in a place so beautiful. This experience in the outdoors was so much more than I could’ve hoped for. The photos were incredible and the shoot was a blast! I recommend Vild Photography for a truly unique and inspiring photography experience. They could not have done a better job.

t shoot. Most importantly, the photos came out beautifully and exactly as we’d hoped, capturing the beauty and natural landscape of Lake Tahoe surrounding us on our special day.

time and came prepared and ready to go! They were professional the whole way through and blended right in. My bridesmaids were telling me that they never even noticed the photographers during the ceremony or reception, but the pictures prove they were there for EVERY amazing moment, they truly captured some phenomenal photos! I can not recommend them enough, they were incredible!!

ing so comfortable while taking the photos. They photos turned out beautiful and exactly what we were looking for! I would highly recommend Robert and M to anyone looking for beautiful photos!

hotos. Robert even strapped on skis and skied down with us and our friends and captured so many beautiful memories! He sent us a sneak peak of photos right after the wedding and then our final edits were complete shortly after! I don't think it took longer than 2 weeks to get our photos back and relive our amazing day. We cannot thank you enough, Robert!! We are so happy with your services and the final product! Thank you!! :D
