What People Are Saying

“Kellie, Lindsay, and the whole Live Happy team is who want! Kellie and Lindsay have been with us since day one, through two postponements, an engagement session, and now FINALLY our wedding day. They brought so many smiles and laughter to our faces, even before we has our morning coffee and it being 38 degrees outside. They were professional, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented, while also funny, light hearted, and silly. My husband and I can be very awkward in front of the camera, but they made us feel comfortable, like we are just hanging out with friends, but more dressed up. Having reached out to six photo/video company’s, I can say we did our due diligence and found a team that could work with our budget, get creative, but still execute flawless photos and video. Thank you to Kellie and Lindsay for your patience, open communication, and out of the box thinking to get some stunning photos (#level3dip)!”

- Miranda & Antonio

“Absolutely the best… Not just the photos, but hands down the most wonderful people to work with! Lindsay and Kellie are experts in the wedding game, who directly took the magic of my wedding day, and made it something for all of my friends & family to cherish and adore forever.

No way could we have pulled it off without them. They even coached me how to create that classic dip photo that you definitely also want on your wedding day.

I would recommend them a million times over, to everyone. I know you will love them, and their work as much as we did !”

- Tyler & Nanou

We LOVE Live Happier Photography! They were so much FUN to share our day with. Our wedding pictures and video were in our hands 6 days after our wedding.

We were very selective about our photographers and videographers. I am so glad we were patient and decided to hire Live Happier Photography.

I remembered meeting them 2 years prior with a friend at a wedding convention. I loved how wonderful of a team they were. I encourage you to meet with the team and consider their amazing work for your special day too!

What questions should I ask my elopement photographer?

  • This is a great question and the word is totally up for interpretation! It used to mean a couple running off with just the 2 of them to get married. Nowadays we see it as more of a smaller more intimate wedding with just close friends or family. Guest lists are usually 10-40 people.

  • We are here to help with anything you need! We are happy to help suggest locations or vendors for your big day, we can also set up a call to go over the timeline and make suggestions to get your day running smoothly.

  • The elopement package was designed for smaller weddings with less guests. Generally if you have more than 40 guests or your day is spread over more than 4 hours then we suggest getting one of our larger packages for your wedding.

  • So this depends on your wedding and how many “formalities” you have. Generally elopements have around 500-800 images. All images will be organized into neat little folders and uploaded to an online gallery, that way you can download them all right away, or share the link with friends and family.
