Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

“Isaac did a wonderful job photographing our backyard wedding. He did a brilliant job capturing my visions as well as brought ideas of his own. We are very grateful we were able to book Isaac for our wedding, he truly immortalized the day and we have so many beautiful photos to reflect on for the rest of our lives.”

Together Carly and Elliot of Nomadic Love are the ultimate power team for your wedding day. As a husband and wife team feeding off one another’s strengths, they can truly maximize on so many more elements than a single person.

“From the moment we reached out to A Nomadic Love, their communication was quick, detailed, and responsive. My husband and I no longer live in Dallas, TX and despite the time zone difference, Carly was always so easy to reach out to regarding any questions or concerns about our wedding day. Carly and Elliot were both extremely professional, but also so easy to work with throughout the entire process both before, during, and after our wedding day! Three months prior to our wedding, Carly and Elliot even came to our wedding venue ahead of time to test the lighting, which was a concern of mine since our venue was indoors and I was concerned about how everything would photograph, especially in regards to my bright red wedding dress. In addition, the two of them worked so effectively throughout our wedding in regard to the photos. My husband wanted to be surprised when I walked down the aisle, so the only opportunity to take couple’s portraits was after our ceremony prior to the reception along with getting photos with our family. Their attention to detail and ability to work within our time constraints ensured we got beautiful photos that perfectly captured the joy and love of our special day. We couldn't be happier with the service and quality of work from A Nomadic Love, and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.”

He was so lovely to work with, and he took the time to get to know more about us as a couple before we met up for our civil ceremony. He was very communicative, and he sent us our photos well before the deadline in our contract. I would say that my husband and I are not naturals in front of a camera, and Anderson was patient and guided us so professionally throughout our wedding. We felt comfortable and trusted his vision, and it really paid off! Our photos are timeless and truly capture the emotion of that day. We will cherish them forever! We would highly recommend reaching out to Anderson if you are looking for a classic, timeless wedding portfolio. In fact, we are going to be working with him again in August when we have our reception!”

We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures!

Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

“When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3”
