" We were able to actually enjoy the day, time with each other, and loved ones without feeling like it was just a full day long photo shoot. After it’s all said and done photography is the one thing you actually get to take away from your wedding day and in my opinion that makes it priceless. It was an honor to have Elizabeth Lanier behind the lens captured the moments that we’ll cherish for a lifetime."

- Whitney, a former Montana Wedding Bride

DELIVERING SO MUCH MORE THAN BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS

THE ELIZABETH LANIER DIFFERENCE

I. PROFESSIONALISM AND POSITIVITY

Together our team has photographed hundreds of weddings and their skills, efficiency, and natural collaboration has earned them nothing but five star reviews from clients, clients’ parents, and fellow top industry professionals. Sarah Elizabeth’s artistic eye and technical expertise combined with William Lanier’s calm and kind personality creates an environment where everyone can relax and interact naturally. The Elizabeth Lanier team cultivates a setting that consistently results in beautiful photos that reflect exactly how the weekend FELT. 

II. AN EFFORTLESS, EFFICIENT TEAM

Recognizing that each celebration is unique, Elizabeth Lanier creates custom service offerings based on the hours of weekend coverage needed and the desired ways to showcase the images at home post-wedding. Our team will then work closely with our couples and their planners to create a photography timeline that best suits each client's specific weekend goals. 

III. CUSTOM OFFERINGS

Nearly all of the celebrations Elizabeth Lanier photographs are multi-day destination events and no matter where in the world they take place, the logistics are well thought out in advance. We value the opportunity to photograph new locations with a completely fresh perspective and plenty of creativity. In addition to the setting, we revel in getting to know our couples with a pre-wedding session in the days before the wedding. This provide the opportunity for couples to be comfortable and ease in photos which makes for the ultimate wedding weekend gallery.
