A Wedding Day with Me by Your Side

On Sarah and James’ wedding day, the morning was soft with mist. Sarah stepped out of the car, nervous about the rain and worried about getting good photos in the limited light. I had brought a couple of umbrellas, and she had her yellow rain boots. I encouraged her that her raincoat would complement her dress and that we wouldn’t be in the rain for long.

Throughout the day, I balanced gentle guidance with quiet observation, arranging them in beautiful light for portraits, then stepping back so they could share real, unguarded laughter. During the reception, I caught James leaning in to whisper something that made Sarah laugh so hard she wiped away a tear. That single frame now hangs in their home, a daily reminder of their joy.

This is what working with me feels like: a blend of direction and authentic moments, so you look beautiful, feel at ease, and have photographs that carry the emotion of your day for a lifetime.

We’re a perfect match if:

  • You value presence over performance.

  • You believe your wedding deserves to be remembered with artistry, not trends.

  • You want photographs that feel effortless, refined, and deeply personal.

  • You see photography not as an expense but as an heirloom, crafted to last for generations.

  • You trust in the beauty of truth over the pressure of perfection.

THE ADINA STILES PHOTOGRAPHY

Wedding Experience

I am genuinely invested in every love story I photograph.
From the moment I arrive on your wedding day to the final delivery of your images,
I pour my passion into capturing your story with care and creativity.
Your love is one of a kind, and I’m dedicated to documenting it in a way that feels just as special.

1. Meet & Dream

Our first meeting, whether by Zoom or at a local coffee shop, will be a chance to dream about your day, ask questions, and get to know each other. To secure your wedding date, I require a deposit and signed agreement.

2. Prepare & Plan

From timeline planning to location scouting, I go the extra mile to make sure I have the time and space to create beautiful images of you. I will work closely with your wedding planners and other vendors to ensure your day runs smoothly.

3. Engagement session

The engagement session is an adventure to somewhere fun like your favorite park, landmark, or water view. It gives you a chance to be in front of the camera and get some amazing photos.

4. TIMELINE Crafting

I love being able to guide you when creating your wedding day timeline. I want to ensure we have time needed to create magic!

5. YOUR WEDDING DAY

I come to your wedding day prepared and ready to create. I'll capture the candid moments and guide you to create epic shots that make you feel and look your best.

6. Your love story presented

After your wedding, I will send a sneak peek within 24-48 hours of your wedding of some of the highlights. Every image is a piece of your story, carefully edited and curated with love. Get ready for a gallery that's as special as you are.

Fun Facts About Me:

  • I started my career as a fashion photographer, which gave me an eye for elegance, detail, and timeless portraiture.

  • I can pin a boutonniere, bustle a gown, and calm pre-ceremony nerves, all while keeping your timeline flowing.

  • I adore natural light and often scout locations in advance to find hidden corners of beauty you might not even notice at your venue.

  • I’ve had a bride’s veil fly away, a ring bearer refuse to walk down the aisle, and even a champagne bottle explode. I captured it all with calm and grace.

  • I’m a big believer in including pets in portraits (and I’ve photographed everything from dogs to horses decked out in ribbons and flowers!).

  • I’ve photographed over 100 weddings, each one unique but all anchored in authentic emotion.

  • One of my favorite compliments was when a couple said, “We didn’t just hire a photographer, we gained a friend.”

My Posing Approach

“We don’t know how to pose!” It’s something I hear all the time, and trust me—it’s completely normal! Posing can feel intimidating if you’re not used to being in front of a camera. That’s where I come in. My goal is to make the process easy, comfortable, and most importantly, fun.

What you can expect:

  • Gentle prompts + movement

  • No rigid or awkward poses

  • Authentic emotions and moments that matter

  • Capturing the essence of your relationship

I guarantee you’ll feel at ease, confident, and completely yourselves in front of the camera.

The cost of your wedding photography depends on various factors, reflecting the distinct details of your celebration.

My Approach

I’m committed to capturing your wedding day with authenticity and raw emotion. My approach is to be present in the moment, anticipating the quiet exchanges and meaningful interactions between you, your partner, and your loved ones. While many weddings follow a familiar, traditional path, I’ll be looking for the moments that set your story apart. Even within the traditions, your wedding will have a personal touch that only you two can create, and that's what I’m here to capture.

For me, your wedding is more than just another event; it’s a chance to step into your world, understand who you are, where you’ve been, and the journey of you're beginning together. This day is about honoring that unique bond, and I’ll be there to document it all with my camera.
