The Shalom Imaginative is a Los Angeles-based wedding photography collective documenting weddings in photo and video using a candid, documentary style on digital, analog film, and super 8. The collective shoots on 35mm film, digital, and video, offering full film coverage or combination packages, and works across wedding types from elopements to large celebrations without posing or staged emotion. Led by Nate and Amanda, the collective has documented weddings for over ten years, with featured work in Stone Fox Bride, Cherry Bombe, Destination Wedding Magazine, Over the Moon, 100 Layer Cake, and Green Wedding Shoes. Based in Los Angeles with a focus on Southern California and California statewide; travels worldwide and takes a limited number of destination weddings each year. Couples consistently note Nate's calm, laidback presence on the wedding day, his ability to adapt to last-minute changes, and the genuinely candid quality of both photos and video; several reviewers also highlight fast turnaround on previews and comfort working with the team regardless of prior camera shyness.
