    The Complete Package

    Emily was both our photographer and florist for our Hallowedding. She was fantastic to work with, really making our ideas into reality. Super creative and helpful in every way. She even dressed in costume to be a part of our special night.

    Amazing, fun and friendly!

    Wow- where can I start? Emily at The Photo and Flower Girl is phenomenal. Our wedding morning was the first time we met her as we opted out of engagement photos and let me tell you, it immediately felt like she was an old friend. She was extremely organized, timely, knowledgeable and patient! I am not very comfortable in front of a camera but she was so encouraging, positive, and fun that it flew by. She gave us our sneak peek super early and our full wedding album was absolutely stunning. We could not be happier with our choice in Emily and are so happy she was part of our big day.

    Great photographer!

    She was so professional and fun! The photography really captured the important moments and the spontaneous photos are so perfect! She was unobtrusive and looked like she had fun during the wedding.

    Emily is the absolute best!

    It is rare to meet someone who is so magnetic, genuine, talented, and passionate about their work – but luckily, if you’re reading this review, you’ve found one of those professionals in Emily! Seriously. We booked Emily for both our engagement and wedding photos - it was one of the best decisions we made in our wedding planning process. Emily created a super enjoyable wedding/engagement photo experience and phenomenal, natural photos.

    We wanted a light, candid, classic look for our photos and I can’t imagine any of the other photographers we spoke to delivering the way Emily did. You’ll see – as soon as you chat with her on the phone, you’ll see how quickly she puts you at ease, makes you laugh, and brings such a positive energy. This was even more clear when we met Emily for engagement photos and on our big day! Everyone – our parents, guests, wedding party – LOVED having her take their photos and went out of their way to share their compliments about her demeanor – and the photos showed it across multiple candid shots of laughter, joy, and love throughout our wedding.

    On top of being fun, kind, professional, prompt, and the type of person who could put anyone at ease on their big day, she is incredibly talented – her photos speak for themselves. We will cherish them for the rest of our lives! If you’ve been running through wedding photography reviews trying to figure out who to hire (like we were), you can stop here. Emily is the real deal.

    Emily was amazing!!

    Emily was so great! I knew right away after talking to her that I wanted to book her, she was so helpful and friendly. I had a small courthouse wedding with a mini-reception with only about 12 people, and she was able to capture all of it with beautiful photographs. We also only planned it about a month before the actual event, and even with the short time line, she was so helpful and accommodating. It could have been weird having an extra person with so small a wedding, but she fit in great and was a pleasure to talk to (when she wasn't busy capturing everything). I didn't entirely know what I wanted in terms of pictures, but she had great ideas and all the pictures turned out so well. She also knew the area around the courthouse and suggested a great park to take pictures in, which was a beautiful backdrop. She also had a bunch of other suggestions for location after we asked her for some guidance. I would definitely recommend her, she was so friendly, professional, and, of course, took amazing photos.

    Fun, Awesome, Energetic Photographer!

    My fiancé and I loved working with Emily for our engagement photos! She kept us laughing the entire time, which led to some awesome pictures. Emily has a lot of energy and made us feel super comfortable from the first email to the end of our photoshoot. She listened to our input and let us try different poses, giving us direction the entire time. She had the final photos to us extremely quickly for use in our save the date cards. They are romantic, but also really captured the essence of our goofy relationship.

    Emily was fabulous!

    Emily was AMAZING! She made us feel so comfortable during our engagement & wedding shoots. Emily is very organized and she communicates in a timely and professional manner. We were able to plan our wedding pictures ahead of time, which helped to make our wedding day run smoothly! She is such a joy to work with-we couldn't stop laughing while working with her. Her photos were beautiful and we are so thankful for her quality work!
    In addition, I LOVED the flower arrangements she did for our wedding. They were so beautiful that I wish I could have kept them forever :)

    Emily is the best!

    Emily was absolutely amazing to work with! My now husband and I had to cancel our wedding due to COVID-19. We decided to elope just the two of us, and hired Emily to capture our "ceremony". She did an absolutely AWESOME job and I am in LOVE with how the pictures turned out. It was not the smoothest of events (the night before, we realized a giant protest was going to take over our original wedding venue), but Emily helped us work out all the kinks, find a new venue, and it all turned out beautiful in the end. She did my flowers too!! I can not sing her praises enough and could not recommend her more!

    Flowers were so beautiful!

    She captured exactly what my daughter, the bride, had envisioned for her special day!!! All the guests commented on how beautiful the bridal party bouquets were as well as the table arrangements and other accent pieces. The flowers arrived promptly as scheduled and were placed beautifully, I definitely would recommend!!

    Breathtaking Pictures and an Awesome Person

    Hiring Emily to be our photographer was the BEST decision we made during wedding planning. Not only were her photos (both from our engagement session and our wedding day!) absolutely breathtaking (how’d you make us look so good?!), but she also provided exceptional guidance and support during this COVID craziness. From the start Emily made us feel comfortable and we knew we were in good hands. In addition to the spectacular photos, Emily also helped us develop (and re-develop due to re-planning!) a timeline for our wedding day so that we were able to take all the photos and capture all the moments we wanted. Emily has the unique ability to make you feel at ease, silly, and gorgeous all at the same time, and I was blown away by how perfectly she captured each of our personalities. Hire The Photo and Flower Girl!!!

    Professional, flexible and talented

    Emily was simply amazing. We contacted her on short notice and not only was she able to create a perfect bouquet for us but she went above and beyond with the photos as well! She's very professional, flexible to our timeline and schedules and easy to get along with. We couldn't be happier with her photos :) highly recommend her to anyone looking for flowers or photos for their wedding or special event.

    Fun and Engaging

    Emily was incredible. We felt so comfortable doing our photos. We did a first look and we were never told to hold still or pose. We were always moving and interacting which made us open up. She made us laugh and feel as though we'd known her for years. Our wedding was really unique and she didn't miss a beat capturing it. Plus her flowers were spot on for the vision I had.

    Amazing experience and beautiful photos

    Emily was the photographer at my husband's and my wedding this time last year, and we absolutely LOVED her. She made us feel comfortable while taking photos, not awkward and posed, and the photos came out amazing. Our new puppy was in the photos too (unexpectedly) and Emily had no problem including her. 10/10 would recommend.

    Amazing experience!

    We loved having Emily as our photographer and florist!! Throughout our engagement session and wedding she helped us feel at ease and captured some great natural shots. We felt like we were spending time with an old friend! Our flowers were stunning and blended in perfectly with our venue. We couldn’t have asked for anything better :) Thanks so much Emily!

    Wonderful experience

    Emily exceeded our expectations. She was extremely professional, talented, and pleasant to work with. I was impressed she fit us into her busy schedule because our wedding was only three weeks away. She did an amazing job capturing our special day; the photos were gorgeous and the flower bouquet was perfect. What a great experience!

    Emily is seriously the best! We used her for our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos and we will continue to use her for all our future photography needs. She will make the most awkward non photogenic people ( myself & my husband!!) feel and look like the most beautiful people!

    Emily made us feel so relaxed and calm!

    Working with Emily was amazing! She made us feel so comfortable in the days leading up to the wedding and the day of. She worked with us before hand to find places we loved to get pictures taken! She also did my bouquet, all of my bridesmaids flowers and the boutonniere's for my husband and his groomsmen and they were BEAUTIFUL! We worked together to come up with a shot list to make the day go by smoothly. The day of was just perfect and she captured so many amazing moments that I love to look back on! I would HIGHLY recommend Emily for all your photography needs!

    Incredible photographer and floral arranger!

    Emily was an absolute pleasure to work with!! From meeting to discuss our needs/wants right at the start of our planning, to the day of the wedding she went above and beyond to make sure she captured every detail she could. She made everyone feel so at ease, and is a consummate professional. Her photography is dreamy, classy and beautiful. And her flower arranging skills are equally amazing. I would, have and will recommend her to anyone wanting to work with someone who loves what she does, and cares about her clients. Thank you Emily! For the work you did, and the treasured memories you helped to create

    We loved emily

    Emily was the first photographer I had a desire to reach out to, and after speaking with her my mind was made up! Our first meeting lasted 2.5 hours in Starbucks if that gives you any indication to how personable and passionate she is about her business and your big day! There were details that she remembered throughout our entire planning process that even I had forgotten about, and went every extra mile to make sure everything about our day was perfect and exactly what we wanted. We booked her dual photo and flower package and it was the best thing I could have done also. I know nothing about flowers, so we talked about our color scheme and that I like textured bouquets and she took care of the rest! And 6 weeks later people are still complimenting how beautiful our flowers were! Our wedding was also the first time she had done a wedding at our venue, and I was so happy that she was able and wanted to walk around it with me before the big day so we could scope it out and talk through everything. We're so happy we chose Emily, she noticeably went above and beyond her call of duty, and we are SO STINKING EXCITED to see the rest of our wedding photos!

    Effortless Wedding Day

    For some people, finding the right photographer is the first thing on their to-do list. That was definitely the case for me since I can be rather picky about my photos. Emily was accommodating, great at communicating, and super prepared for any situation! I instantly gravitated toward her style and aesthetic. She was also helpful in preparing family portraits after our ceremony, which I later printed and framed to give away as gifts. During our first dance, Emily captured so many amazing moments even with a low lighting situation. I also hired her for flowers and having one person do both was one less thing to worry about. I highly recommend Emily for your next event or wedding!

    Nothing but the BEST

    If you are looking for the perfect photographer, look no further! We had the pleasure of working with Emily for both our Engagement photos and our Wedding. I had never had professional photos done until my Engagement photos and Emily could not have made it any easier. She is very responsive with inquiries and very flexible with her time. She really listened to what we were looking for and what we were comfortable with. She got my Husband and I to open up and have fun with our photos and I couldn’t be more pleased with how they turned out! We also got our Wedding flowers through Emily, and boy were they amazing! She is very creative and they made for the perfect background when we said “I do”. I cannot recommend her enough!

    Emily was an amazing photographer for our December wedding and captured our day beautifully. I thoroughly loved working with her and highly recommend her. We chatted a couple of times before the big day to make sure we were all on the same page. By establishing a rapport early in the planning process, it didn’t feel like I was working with a complete stranger. Emily is warm, friendly, fun, professional, and talented. I felt very comfortable with her. She was great with the kids in our wedding party, and overall, she was a great photographer. Our pictures were completed super fast within about six to seven weeks at competitive, affordable prices. We continue to enjoy our beautiful memories!
