  Absolutely Incredible!

  Ellen and her team are absolutely incredible. Ellen is fun, calm, and put us all at ease immediately. I am in awe of the photos that she took for our October 8 wedding. This was hands down the best choice we made for our wedding. Ellen captured moments that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Her style is stunning. She finds the potential in every moment. We are so delighted by all of the surprises in the pictures - candid photos, planned photos, all of it! I love that she uses a variety of cameras. We adore the shots she took on film. They are all so special. If you have the opportunity to book Ellen, even if it has to be years in advance, do it now! She is the best.

  The best of the best!

  I cannot say enough great things about Ellen. We booked The Light + Color for our engagement and wedding photos, and her talent is unmatched. Not only did she make us laugh the entire time and was a joy to be around, our photos are STUNNING and she was able to capture all of the emotion and beauty of our day in such a candid and artful way. She was very responsive and easy to work with throughout the planning process, and on our wedding day was the perfect mix of friendly, fun, and efficient. During our first conversation, she shared some wise advice that your photographer is the only vendor you have to spend your entire wedding day with, so make sure you like them. That said, BOOK ELLEN IMMEDIATELY, you will not regret it!

  Ellen is the ideal wedding photographer

  Hiring Ellen as our wedding photographer was not only one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day, it ranks wayyy up there in our all-time best decisions as well. Ellen is a incredible artist, a thoughtful and generous person, and a consummate professional. We had quite a large group of friends and family who don't particularly love having their photos taken, and she made everyone feel at ease while working so efficiently that even the time we set aside for various family portraits flew by. We are so grateful to Ellen for the beautiful photographs, and cannot recommend her more highly!

  Stunning Photographs!

  My wife and I could not be happier with The Light and Color's work. Ellen was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She was easy to communicate with and immediately put us at ease upon our first phone conversation. Before the wedding, she encouraged us to think about a shot list of photos - who and where - so that we were prepared on the day.
  
  We had to plan our wedding from afar, as we live in Los Angeles but got married in upstate New York. We were looking for a photographer who would not only capture the feelings and emotions of the wedding, but who also understood how to use the natural surroundings to accentuate the beauty of the event. When it comes to outdoorsy, naturally-set weddings, we found many other photographers whose photos felt either too washed-out or overly-saturated; they were obviously heavily edited. But having grown up in the area, Ellen was very familiar with the, ahem, light and color of the region, and it really showed through in her work.
  
  On the day, she was thoughtful and kind, with a great sense of humor that runs on the dry side -- perfect for us. Though we had planned to pass on a second photographer, Ellen ended up bringing an assistant, Haley, but did not charge us for it. Haley was awesome as well, with a very sweet and calming presence. They were both patient with us and all our knucklehead friends and family, and came in with a plan of attack based on previous conversations that we had had about shot lists. They made us feel comfortable and confident, with lots of great compliments. We also had a few photographer friends that may have been encroaching on Ellen's work, but she handled it in stride, never making a fuss. Never once did she get pushy, short, or demanding, and though she was happy to make suggestions, she always deferred to us in the end. Neither of them ever felt in the way or like a disturbance, blending in, but also getting along with any guests they interacted with.
  
  Ellen has a great eye, and picked a different location for our first looks than we had originally intended, but the photos were beautiful and we were very happy with her decision.
  
  We also made a point in our discussions beforehand that we wanted lots of photos of our guests. Yes, the moment is about us, but what often makes the best weddings so special are the people that attend, and we really wanted to be able to look back on the celebration with mementos of all our friends and family celebrating and having fun. Ellen did not disappoint on that front, as we have many beautiful and candid photos of our guests as well the insanely gorgeous ones of us.
  
  We loved Ellen so much that it was legitimately saddening to say goodbye. We had a great time with her, and could not be more stoked on how the photos turned out. We could not recommend The Light + Color more and would hire them again in a heartbeat!

  Ellen was incredible!! I think her photos speak for themselves, so I'll just add that she is an absolutely delightful person to be around. A friend gave me the advice when I was wedding planning to make sure you like your photographer, because they are with you A LOT on your wedding day. The last thing you want is someone adding to your stress or making you feel uncomfortable. Ellen was everything you could hope for-- she was cool, calm, and collected, incredibly efficient (while still getting great shots), and made us both feel at ease. I didn't want to have to spend the whole wedding taking photos, and Ellen was so helpful in moving things along and didn't push me to do more than I wanted. The photos we ended up with are so wonderful and capture the joy of the day so so well. On top of everything, Ellen traveled all the way to our wedding in Western Pennsylvania (apparently as a part of her goal to photograph a wedding in every state!). I can't recommend her enough!

  Ellen is fantastic! She's personable, very accommodating and has an eye for detail. Do yourself a favor and check out her website; the work she does is beautiful.

  Ellen is an incredible photographer with a unique talent for capturing the true essence of beautiful moments - not your run-of-the-mill photos. Every time I look at my wedding album I am reminded so vividly of the day and have yet to be able to pick a favorite shot. Not only was Ellen fun and supportive throughout the planning process, but she was always available to answer my questions and arrived early the day of just to put me at ease. I guarantee you will love your experience with Ellen and cherish the memories her photography celebrates.

  Absolutely amazing and a perfect fit for our wedding! We had a quirky theme and her artistic style captured all of the details so well. Ellen was a joy to have around all day, she was laid back and fun and made sure we got all of the shots we wanted. Thank you!!

  I need more stars! Ellen was quick to respond to our emails (and fun to communicate with!) and her pricing was so reasonable I still can't believe it included her travel to Vermont. I'm incredibly uncomfortable in front of the camera, and as such had been dreading intimate moments when I might be able to feel the camera's attention on me, like getting ready with my bridesmaids, putting on my dress, and photos with my husband after the ceremony. But by the time Ellen arrived on our wedding day I felt like she was already a great friend, and that sense of ease and comfort brought me - and my husband, our wedding party, our family, and our friends - great joy, which is absolutely visible in our photos. Ellen even helped tie the back of my dress, and helped my bridesmaids with the flowers - come on! I absolutely want to be her friend.
  My husband and I had already decided on a hands off approach when it came to Ellen's wedding day photos, and my only request was to let me know if I needed to reapply lipstick. This was the perfect decision, as the photos are stunning, and better than anything we (or Pinterest!) could have come up with. She captured everything - not just the people, the landscape, and the architecture, but also the feeling and the energy of each moment - and looking back on the photos is like reliving our special day. What a treasure.
  Our photos came back to us only a month after the wedding, and when we shared them with friends we were flooded for weeks by emails, texts, and Facebook notifications with messages such as, "I can't stop looking at your wedding photos!", "these are so magical", and, my favorite, "your wedding photos are (insert 6 banana emojis here)", from a friend who had, until then, stuck their nose up at all emoji use - ha!
  Ellen is amazing. If you work with her, count yourself lucky!

  What a great job! Ellen was so great not only with the pictures but helping to keep things calm and running smoothly. The pictures turned out beautifully and we couldn't be happier. Highly recommend The Light & Color!

  Can I give her more stars?? Ellen was like a ninja photographer, wedding coordinator and friend all in one. I seriously don't know how she does it, but she was SO helpful. She offered so many great ideas during set up, and even braided my flower girl's hair while we were getting ready! She was so fun to be around, my FI & I felt so at ease taking photos with her. I fell in love with her work when we were planning on eloping to CO, but after the guest list started growing and growing we ended up moving the wedding to Austin, TX. I was so bummed that we had to cancel, but Ellen gave us an unreal ( & probably totally unfair) rate including travel to TX! She travels, she's got an incredible talent behind the lens and is super willing to jump in and help out wherever help is needed. My MOH has already decided to use her for her Michigan wedding, and honestly, I'm super pumped to see her again because she's just that freaking cool. Best wedding decision ever!

  A great photographer was at the very top of our list when it came to wedding priorities, and Ellen was absolutely amazing in every way. We could not have asked for a better experience! She was always quick to respond to emails, full of great insight and so friendly. For our engagement photos, she not only got up with us to start shooting at 6 am, but it was also downpouring rain. We have never had so much fun and the photos were beautiful! Ellen was a trooper the entire time. When it came to the actual wedding, I wish I could give her even more stars! She was so professional, and truly went above and beyond. She even helped me get the buttons on the back of my dress done and pinned my bustle after the ceremony. The photos of our wedding are stunning. She captured such beautiful moments and the photos of the dancing were so unique and creative! Everyone has said to us that they were the best wedding photos they have ever seen. Ellen is such a wonderful person to work with, her photography is better than we could have imagined, and my husband and I are so lucky to have found her!

  Ellen was amazing to work with from the very start and we couldn't be more happy with our pictures. My sister used Ellen for her wedding a couple years ago and had such a good experience that there was no question that we were going to use her as well. From the beginning she was incredibly responsive and we met about 8 months before the wedding to do some engagement photos when Ellen was in San Francisco for a wedding she was doing. Then over the wedding weekend she was always right where she needed to be and had such a great feel for the moment and capturing the emotion and beauty of our wedding. We got some preview pictures very quickly and then got our finals pictures not too long after that. I was very pleased with how everything turned out and would recommend her to everyone.

  One word... amazing! Ellen was our wedding photographer in September and we were beyond happy with everything she did. She took both engagement and wedding photos, so we spent a good amount of time with her. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was so much fun to be around. Professional and personable without a doubt. Ellen's photography is beautiful and we are so happy with everything she captured. She knows what she is doing! We will definitely call on Ellen again to capture more memories!

  Ellen is great to work with! She has a very relaxed, fun style that worked perfectly for us. She met us at the groom's parents' house for our engagement photos and again for our elopement in the woods. She answered all of my emails quickly and was on time! She's a great person and made our day very memorable!

  If photography is important to you, don't think twice about spending a little extra to get someone like the Light + Color. Ellen's photography style is so natural. Never did I feel awkward, as she gave great direction. As for the candid shots, Ellen was able to capture the most beautiful moments. Seeing the photos was like re-living the best day of my live. That's the sign of a wonderful photographer! Logistically, The Light + Color was very flexible. There was no time limit for the day, she arrived while we were getting ready in the morning and left well into dancing at the reception. Ellen was also very open to my ideas about where the wedding party should take group shots after the ceremony, and she was very good with suggestions, as well. Both photographers took wonderful detail shots of our flowers and décor, and also took some wonderful photos of our guests.

  Ellen and the team's work is AMAZING! We got a few snippets of our wedding that Sunday morning and the pictures were amazing! She was so easy to work with and had such a good eye for when to take natural photos! We loved that she orchestrated a little picture session with all our close friends and family, I know that these will be great to look back on! I can't wait to get all of our photos in a few weeks but I am already blown away, did I mention that we have already been picked up and featured on Instagram! Seriously she is amazing!

  Working with Ellen was absolutely delightful! She was laid back, flexible, communicative, and fun. The engagement and wedding photos were all gorgeous, and the value was incredible. We will cherish our photo memories forever!

  Ellen was great to work with and captured our day so beautifully! She is such a nice, calm presence to have around you the day of your wedding. She helped make sure we got the photos we wanted and kept everything moving...she even bustled my dress! Her work is gorgeous, you can't go wrong!

  Ellen was very kind and a joy to be around on the wedding day. She is very experienced and has a laid back attitude that helped me as the bride maintain my cool throughout the planning process and the wedding day. She was very supportive of the ideas that we had for pictures and did a great job applying her artistic skills to our amateur ideas. She was very quick with getting our photos back to us after our wedding and continued to check in and answer any questions we had. Her website also is easy to navigate and looks professional and well done.

  Ellen and her second-shooter were so easy to work with. We met with Ellen a few months before our wedding to take our engagement photos. My (then) fiancé and I were only in the Vermont area for a weekend and Ellen was great at accommodating our schedule to fit in the engagement shoot. Despite pouring rain, a mix up regarding meeting location, and two very awkward subjects to work with -- Ellen's photos from our shoot were amazing (and I'm somebody that usually hates every photo taken of me). On the wedding day Ellen was calm and cool, constantly around to catch the candid shots without ever feeling like a presence. When it came time for first-look and formal portraits she was incredibly quick and efficient, getting awesome shots without having us all standing around for ages. Ellen is not only an extremely talented photographer, she's also got a great sense of humor that makes working with her a total blast!
