We used Iconic Union for my daughter’s wedding. They did an exceptional job researching the venue and inspiration pictures so that the day of the wedding ran smoothly. We are extremely pleased and will work with them for all other events in the future.

We used Iconic Union for our wedding and we cannot recommend them enough. Carrie was on top of scheduling and timeline more than I was in the weeks leading up to the wedding. She remembered inspiration pictures I had sent her in July and executed them perfectly for our November wedding. On top of that, we felt happy and comfortable during the photos and she really captured our and our families personalities perfectly. I am so excited to use them for any events in the future! We ordered a lot of photos in the matte finish which were beautiful, but we happened to order a few in the glossy finish and they were STUNNING! The quality is unmatched. Thank you, Iconic Union! We are so grateful!

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Carrie and Joel from Iconic Union! We had a father/son fall photo session with them, and the results absolutely exceeded my expectations! From start to finish, they were incredibly professional, friendly, and made us feel so comfortable. My son and I had so much fun during the shoot and I loved how they used the beautiful fall colors to enhance the photos. The images they captured are stunning! Every shot is full of warmth, emotion, and has the perfect autumn vibes. I love how they captured the little moments between us, and their attention to detail is unmatched. Whether it was the way the sunlight filtered through the trees or the natural smiles, each photo truly tells a story. They even incorporated some spooky Halloween fun into the session, which my son thought was so much fun! If you're looking for a photographer who not only takes great pictures but also makes the whole experience enjoyable, I highly recommend Carrie and Joel with Iconic Union! We will definitely be coming back for future sessions.
