Meet Lilly, the person behind the lens

Lilly Wade Photo. Young woman in white dress holds camera while leaning on rustic wooden fence in golden hour light.
Based in southern utah, photographing weddings since 2024

I am a huge empathetic, so yes I might have  a couple tears in my eyes throughout your day


Emotions are HUGE for me, and are one of my favorite parts of weddings. My goal is to capture all those gorgeous shots you'll hang on the wall, but also capture everything else


The pictures of grandma crying during your first dance, your moms smile while you cut the cake, and that special hug with dad before he gives you away.

Fun facts about me:

  • Love hyping people up, but an introvert at heart
  • Married my best friend in an LDS temple in 2025
  • Dr. Pepper is my favorite soda
  • Hot take but Little Caesurs is the best pizza place
  • Grew up playing soccer & lacrosse 
  • Picked up my first camera in 2020 for sports photography but felt drawn to weddings
