Our top priorities in finding a wedding photographer were 1) a portfolio featuring queer couples and 2) a colorful and candid style that performs across different lighting conditions and indoor/outdoor settings. Wraven Designs absolutely delivered. Chatting with Adriane on the phone for our consult, we got the sense that she is an experienced wedding photographer who can remain relatively unruffled under all kinds of circumstances — and this turned out to be very true. Adriane and Lexi, her second shooter, put us at ease and made us laugh throughout the photo shoots of our day. They were great sports about getting wet in the rain to capture our big family group shots, and about being pulled off the dance floor to capture random sets of friends, college & travel buddies, etc.
Crucially, they brought along several different styles of umbrellas, which we didn’t even think about until the day before our wedding when rain was forecast. They really made the best of the overcast skies! When we had to switch the ceremony to the rain plan without a lot of advance planning and my wife & I were busy getting ready, Adriane was able to give advice to our DOC and officiant on the ceremony area layout for the best photo setup. Adriane was also very flexible about coverage — she let us purchase a custom package between two of her other offerings, and was down to shift the start/end times of photo coverage a few weeks before the wedding. She and Lexi were very independent throughout the day, roaming the grounds and capturing all kinds of great details without needing direction, and they made sure to let us know about last calls for photos before they departed for the night.
We are so thrilled with the memories that Adriane & Lexi captured for us on our wedding day with friends and family. We have romantic pre-ceremony portraits, gorgeous family photos, emotional shots of the ceremony, and fire shots from the dance floor — all delivered on an adorably packaged custom USB. Thank you SO much!
We've only had a sneak peak of our photos so far and I am dying for more. Wraven Design was professional, flexible and listened to what my husband and I were hoping to capture. We had so much fun running around downtown and stopping traffic to get the perfect shot. The detail photos blew me away - they captured the dramatic romance perfectly. 10/10 would recommend!

- Adriane HornungOwnerI'm a hopeless romantic, mother of 3, & lover of all things nerd. I've been an artist for my entire life, and it shows both in the quality of my work and the fact that I'm more than a little weird, but I choose to lean into it. We joke around during shoots to keep clients relaxed and comfortable, and have been told that it feels like hanging out while taking photos instead of a nerve-wracking chore. I hate heights but have ridden ski lifts, climbed elevator shafts, stood on cliffs, and more just to get that perfect shot. I'm a sucker for moss and mushies and love to showcase nature's beauty in my work. I go above and beyond to make magic & exceed couples' expectations. Let me capture your fairytale?
