Eli & Heather Hurzeler of Zel Weddings LLC

We are Eli & Heather Hurzeler, husband & wife photography team of over 12 years!

We love each other & what we do: getting to celebrate with couples as they begin their own journey in life together. We have been married for over twenty years and are working towards our quarter of a century mark.

Look how cute we were on our wedding day!

We understand intimately the emotions surrounded in the day, details of planning and perspectives in the multi-faceted wedding day.

From documenting weddings, celebrating as part of the wedding party, to recently personally experiencing the wedding day as parents of the bride have all helped shape the way we view and capture weddings.

Through these unique experience's we are deeply compassionate about documenting your story in a way that lets you look back and feel the memories of the day and are empathetic to the many amazing people & family who make your day so special.

We love travel & adventure and have lived many places over the past years including:

The Big Island of Hawaii, Seattle Washington area and Arizona

where we started our life together.

Our adventures have now brought us to the beautiful Bluegrass of Lexington, Kentucky area.

Heather is an artist and not only loves creating art through the camera lens but also on a canvas, acrylic painting. When not working on the business or artwork you usually can find her in her the garden or with our little farm of animals.

Eli is a man of many talents; from woodworking and building furniture pieces, to his time as an exotic zookeeper at the Panaewa Zoo in Hawaii taking care of everything from primates to tigers there isn't much he can't do if he puts his mind to it.

Together we have a beautiful family of three grown children and are thankful for this life we get to live together.

Photos are priceless as we look back at the many adventures and moments we have experienced along the way together we are forever grateful for these frozen moments of time and memories.

We would love to get to know you

& serve you on your wedding day

as you begin your own life of adventure together!

We enjoy traveling and are open to any adventure or location to meet with our clients.
