About Nathan Sottung Photography, LLC.

Nathan Sottung Photography, LLC.

Photographer & Storyteller

Hi, I’m Nathan. I don’t just photograph weddings—I quietly witness them. With a calm, steady presence and deep respect for the sacred, I create space for you to stay present while I preserve what matters most. I focus on the moments that often pass unnoticed: the breath before the aisle, light spilling through stained glass, a parent’s quiet tears as vows are exchanged. Couples choose me for my ability to bring peace into the room and create images that feel honest, reverent, and timeless—photographs meant to be cherished for generations.

I photograph weddings as a trusted witness. With a quiet, steady presence and deep respect for sacred ceremony, I work without intrusion so you can remain fully present while your day unfolds naturally. My approach is shaped by years of photographing once-in-a-lifetime moments, including work featured in The New York Times. I focus on unscripted, meaningful details—the breath before the aisle, light through stained glass, the stillness of vows—preserving them with honesty, grace, and lasting intention.

    Wonderful to work with!

    Nathan was our wedding photographer, and he's wonderful to work with. He's professional, talented, and has a real gift for capturing stories in every photo. He went above and beyond, even staying later than scheduled to capture a special moment later on in our reception. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for an exceptional photographer.

    Family Photographer

    Nathan has a way of making you feel comfortable and getting those genuine moments. From the first meeting his easy going personality sets the tone for you to plan your vision. He has such a great collaborative process that ensures the photos are a reflection of you. I have now worked with him several times and each time I am blown away by his kindness and warmth. From carrying your grandma’s bag to her chair to making your toddler feel comfortable enough to smile, Nathan goes out of his way to exceed your expectations. He has a natural talent for knowing when to push, getting you to try a new pose or finding a interesting locations or situations. He can expand your comfort zone while still making you feel calm and confident. He was the easiest vender that I worked with at my wedding, always attempting to make life a little easier and our wedding day as stress free as possible. Four years later I still love looking back at our wedding photos and how happy that day was. I was pleasantly surprised to see he capture some of the small moments throughout the day that have become my most cherished memories.

    In a word, stellar.

    Before the wedding, Nathan was attentive and details-oriented as he helped us plan and figure out what photos were the most important to us. He met with us over Zoom and in-person at the venue to walk through the day and provided countless suggestions and tips to make sure the photography and ceremony went smoothly. During the wedding, Nathan took both phenomenal posed photos and brilliant candids. He was a constant presence with a cameras holstered on each hip, like a cowboy with lenses instead of six-shooters. He worked quickly to get us a selection of social-media ready the same day, perfect to share with family across the world who couldn't make it. After the wedding, Nathan's editing and communication skills are top-notch. He even drove out (over an hour!) to take some photos of a sapphire ring of my new wife's - it's a family heirloom she wore during the wedding that she wanted additional photos of. When we tried to pay for these additional photos, he waved us off. Nathan truly went above and beyond the call of duty. In terms of quality, the photos he took are top-notch. We have fantastic posed photos, often with little touches he suggested in the moment to ensure we looked relaxed, smiling, and at our best. His candids are some of my favorite photos in the world and perfectly capture what was a perfect day. Nathan's humor, attention to detail, and devotion to getting every shot right make hiring him one of the best wedding decisions we made. I would heartily recommend hiring Nathan and plan on calling on him if we have photography needs in the future.
