Cassie Schane, Family

"Cole did a family session for our family of five (our kids range from two to eleven), so as you can imagine, we aren't the easiest to work with. Cole was incredibly patient with us as we wandered around a huge park. He knew all of the best places and was open to our suggestions. We couldn't be happier with his work!"

Caleb Ridenhour, Groom

"Cole Elder Photography was so fun and easy to work with both leading up to, and on our wedding day! Cole and his staff made sure to capture every moment while also making us and our guests feel like five-star celebrities! We highly recommend Cole E Photography to anyone looking for an amazing, personable photographer!'

Marie Hanson, Bride

"Cole E Photography was a true blessing to myself and my family on our wedding day. Unfortunately, the day didn't go as planned, however, through it all, Cole and his team were there, capturing each moment, and offering their help in any way. I am forever grateful for their dedication to their clients and their Christian business mentality."
