Elizabeth is an extremely talented photographer. She is able to capture "in the moment" and charming pictures that brought our wedding day to life. We will 100% hire Elizabeth in the future for any events or family photos. Not only does she take wonderful pictures, she is friendly, responsive, and easy going. Her work is flawless. She is highly recommended.

We had a lovely engagement photoshoot with Elizabeth! She is very kind, creative, and did a wonderful job with our engagement photos, capturing our down-to-earth and calm style beautifully. We are so excited to have her be a part of our wedding day and capture those special moments. We definitely recommend her!

Elizabeth was a delight to work with. She was really flexible, which helped our wedding day stay stress-free even with many family members running late. She gave us tons of photos--it's so hard to choose our favorites! I love how the colors turned out and the overall "vibe." I'm pretty "meh" about overly-posed and dramatic wedding photography. Elizabeth's shots were genuine, beautiful, and we will certainly treasure them for life.

Elizabeth did an amazing job capturing our wedding day. The photos are gorgeous. She is professional and has a gentle, easy presence - perfect for planning and on the wedding day! I can't stop looking at the beautiful way she captured our friends and family. :

We were so lucky to work with Elizabeth for our wedding. From the beginning she was friendly and easy to work with. She was so calm and on point throughout the whole process. She offered her advice when issues arose before the wedding and the day off she was incredibly professional. She was able to capture every moment from start to finish. I don't know how she did it.

The formal shots were lovely, but the candid shots were why we hired her (and she didn't disappoint). We received the photos within only a couple of weeks of our wedding and absolutely love them! Hire her.

Working with Elizabeth was an absolute dream. She has a very unique and artistic eye for taking beautiful pictures. Our wedding photos exceeded our best expectations! I have gotten so many compliments, people are so impressed. I don't usually love photos of myself so I was pretty nervous. She was so easy to work with, I felt really comfortable with her. She really captured the joyfulness of the day and the beauty of the spot we chose. I highly recommend her! I couldn't be happier with the results!

Elizabeth Solaka is absolutely incredible, and I cannot recommend her enough! She is so sweet and quite funny, and we got along incredibly! (Which is important - you spend a lot of the day with your photographer!) Elizabeth is so incredible at catching the little moments that are full of such genuine emotion. We just got our photographs back from her, and looking through them is such an incredible joy!

In addition to being an awesome person to spend a day with, and an incredible photographer, she is also extremely professional and speedy! We were super worried that we would spend our whole day taking photographs, and Elizabeth made sure we were good to go on all the necessary family portraits in what felt like lightning speed! When all is said and done, your photographer is one of the most important wedding planning decisions you make, since in the end it's the photographs you have left to remember the day / night. Elizabeth was incredible to work with, and we are so pleased with the results. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer, and cannot recommend her enough!

I just got my pictures back from Elizabeth and they are amazing! She is so incredibly talented. From the moment we first connected she was always responsive and open to all different kinds of ideas for photos. The day of the wedding she completely blended in. There were pictures I saw that I didn't even know she was in the area to take. She has such a great personality and she blended right into the family while we were all getting ready and she made everyone feel so comfortable.

She was also so patient and flexible with other people at the wedding trying to sneak in and take photos while she was getting her shots and she easily worked around them. She just really brought a great spirit with her to the wedding and it shows in her beautiful photos. My husband and I are thinking of what we might want to do for our first anniversary and if photos are to be taken, we would definitely want to work with her again.

Elizabeth was my wedding photographer, and I highly recommend her! She is great to work with, dependable, and very responsive and quick, even after the wedding in helping with photo downloads and album work. Her pricing is fair. But most importantly, we were absolutely thrilled with all of the photos. The quantity was pretty amazing and I loved having so many options to choose from, and the quality was there as well; she captured every key moment and got such great shots of all of our family and friends.
