About Developing Diamonds Photography LLC

Developing Diamonds Photography LLC

Photographer/Owner

My name is Elliot Stokes and I am a photographer located in the Madison, WI area, but I work all across Wisconsin and Illinois. I have been drawn to the camera since I was young, but becoming a father has really shown me the magic behind capturing the most candid and beautiful moments of our lives. I started my journey into professional photography officially in the summer of 2019 and received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with honors in Digital Photography in the spring of 2022. I absolutely love what I do and look forward to every new experience and opportunity this journey takes me on!

I am a full time event photographer and capturing these monumental moments for all the great couples I've worked with has been such an honor of mine. I truly love being able to tell stories with my craft and freeze these beautiful moments for people. I take pride in my work and I take my craft very seriously. Wedding and event photography is everything to me and all i do, so I am always available for my couples and I take a lot of pride in my communication. I also provide same-day sneak peeks as well as a drone video so my couples can relive their day instantly!

  • Amazing Wedding Photographer

    Elliot was amazing to work with for our engagement photos and wedding photos. He showed up on time and was ready to go. He was very easy to work with and came prepared with everything. He gave us a 30 minute warning before his time was up and asked if we wanted any other specific photos. He gave direction and guided us through our wedding photos. He was flexible when our wedding timeline needed to be adjusted. He did a great job with delivering our sneak peak photos within 2 days of our engagement photos and wedding photos. I am so in love with our wedding sneak peaks. I can't wait to see the rest of them. I cannot recommend him enough. I will definitely work with him again in the future!

    Elliot is amazing to work with! He is SO quick to respond to messages and is also super fast with taking/editing photos. Both our engagement shoot and wedding photos were stunning and we got tons of compliments from family and friends during the wedding about his professionalism. He rolls with the punches and has an eye for spotting unique photo locations/poses. We can’t stop gushing over these amazing photos we will cherish forever. We can’t thank you enough Elliot!

  • 5 stars for Elliot!

    We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Elliot! From start to finish, he was attentive, professional, and such a pleasure to work with. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful—capturing not only the big moments but also the candid, heartfelt ones we’ll treasure forever. We were thrilled to receive some wonderful surprises, such as a stunning drone video that gave such a unique perspective of our day. Elliot truly went above and beyond, and the value we received for the price was incredible. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented photographer who genuinely cares about his clients and their memories!
