Jeremy is everything you want in a wedding photographer and more. He is highly skilled and truly a delight to work with! From our very first conversation, it was obvious he enjoys capturing weddings and working with couples, which reassured me that our treasured moments would be in very capable hands! Jeremy’s lighthearted, happy demeanor put us at ease and made it enjoyable and easy to work with him. During our engagement session (which I highly recommend!) he gave us great direction and helped us to feel relaxed and more ourselves even when we otherwise might have felt self-conscious. On our wedding day, Jeremy was an unassuming, reassuring presence—it felt like being with an old friend! The resulting images were better than we could have imagined. The photos are very high quality and true-to-life and looking at them now transports us back in time! We will always be so glad we chose Jeremy!

Ivey Photo

Chattanooga, TN
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Charlotte, NC for additional fees

In September 2018, I gave up my career as an attorney to pursue my dream of being a creative entrepreneur. My husband's encouragement to pick up a camera again was the birth of this business. I believe wedding photography is meant to be classic. When you look back on your wedding gallery, I want you to be transported back to the most special moments of your day. I offer complimentary timeline assistance to all of my wedding clients. I believe in creating moments for you to savor rather than just snapping a shot. I want you to get lost in a moment... It's the connection between lovers that I long to capture.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have had the honor of working with Paige on a few occasions. I am a minister and perform wedding ceremonies. When I first saw Paige's photos, I was blown away by the beauty of each and every picture she captured, even the ones with me in them. The quality of her photography is impressive. I also love how discreet Paige is while she is taking pictures during the ceremony. I did not know where she was or the pictures she was taking until I saw them. Paige has a loving, caring personality, totally professional, and is a complete joy to be around. So much so, I asked her to take pictures of my grown daughter who has autism. My daughter can be a challenge, but Paige has the patients of a saint and took the time needed to work with my daughter to capture images that are utterly amazing. If you are looking for a photographer who will capture your day to its fullest, where you will have many beautiful, treasured keepsakes, you have found her. I adore Paige with Ivey Photo and would recommend her to all!

The rest is pretty much history. A few of my favorite things: Darth Vader, the Space Jam soundtrack, traveling, DC comics, Mac & Cheese, chicken marsala, more cheese, serial killer and mythology podcasts, and allll the doggos!

From the start Ryan was a professional artist who really thought through all the details and components of our unique venue. He allowed himself extra time on the wedding day to confirm final layout for a ceremony in a wide open field taking sunset, backdrop and shadows all into consideration. And he bounced around during the reception to be sure he wasn't missing any special moments. He was such a pleasure to work with and I give him high praises and the biggest recommendation.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I are both a bit awkward, and both hate having our photo taken. We were not super stoked about the idea of engagement or wedding photos, but figured we’d grit our teeth through it for the memories, ya know? WELL. Ish and Maya made the whole photo-taking experience the most chill, enjoyable, and fun experience! We were so glad to do an engagement shoot before the wedding, as it helped us relax a little bit and realize how comfortable it would be on our big day! They are SUPER fun, professional, encouraging, and gifted. Our engagement and wedding photos came out even more beautiful than we could have imagined, with a quick turn around time. Maya is a beast at wedding coordinating. The whole rehearsal and wedding day I felt as though I could just sit back because Maya had it covered. She’s professional, direct, and put’s the groom and bride’s needs first. We love Ismael and Maya, and could not have had a better experience with them!

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Charlotte, NC for additional fees

I’m originally from New York, and shortly after moving down south I found myself falling in love with a country boy and made the New River Valley, VA my home. I have had a passion for photography since I was a child, and when I finally decided to take the leap into my own photography journey I was very lucky to have the support of family, friends and other professionals. I’ve had the opportunity to have some amazing mentors along the way and have soaked up everything they took the time to teach me.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a vendor I wanted my own product presented clearly with detail and style. Alex did just that. She was extremely accommodating to my schedule, communicated with me often and clearly (for example, turn around time for editing her photos), and really knew what she was doing with lighting and attention to detail. Working with her was a pleasure, and my custom cakes and cupcakes have never looked more beautiful!

I love mexican food, cats (and dogs!), and iced coffee. Books are my best friends, and I also double as a yoga teacher when I'm not doing photography related things.

Now on to the typical things you want to know about my journey in photography...I got my first camera in 2009 and basically haven't put it down since! I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

I’m Erika and I am a self-taught photographer, hiker enthusiast, travel lover and proud dog mama! I started my photography journey at 18 years old.

Thanks to the trust that my clients put in me, I get to do what I do best — and that’s create.

Erika is wonderful! We are both shy and she made us feel comfortable the entire time, she has the craziest most creative ideas for her pictures and she doesn’t care if she has to go in the woods to get the perfect shot. We highly recommend Light Sky Photography and we will definitely hire Erika again ❤️ Like

  • Serves Charlotte, NC for additional fees

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Deb and her team did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding pictures in April 2021. The pictures are so beautiful and did a great job of capturing our day. She got the pictures back to us so quick too! Our friends and family have not stopped texting us raving about how nice the pictures came out! Would recommend Parker Photography to anyone.

We understand that this is a huge investment not only financially but emotionally - so we put in every bit of effort to make sure you get exactly what you wanted.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Amanda/Salt Ivy Photography enough. When choosing a photographer for our wedding and for our post-wedding mountaintop shoot (instead of an engagement photoshoot), we wanted a photographer who had a unique artistic vision who produced dynamic and emotional shots. We wanted photography that really stood out and was not the run of the mill wedding photography. Most of all, we wanted photography that captured the authentic emotional connection we have and the incredible energy of our big day. When I saw Amanda's work, I knew she was the one. Not only was her work absolutely STUNNING, but she was incredible to work with. We had to change our wedding date 3 total times due to Covid... and even moved it out of state halfway through... Amanda was always flexible, understanding, accommodating and encouraging. The day of the wedding she was calm, loving, fun, and her energy really made the day even more special. Our post-wedding hike/photoshoot the next day was one of the most enjoyable parts of our entire wedding experience. Amanda is not only a phenomenal photographer and artist, but an even better human. 10000000000000/10 recommend.

(And you have reviewed my work to see that vibe!) You’re looking for someone full of personality, that friends/family/previous clients would describe as witty, with admirable people skills. You want someone with passion, and an eye for detail. You want someone personable- with patience. As a mother, and seasoned nanny I’ve got plenty of patience to offer.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rach was great. The communication was smooth and she was so helpful in picking poses/styles. Our photos were amazing and we have them hung all over our house. Literally. She was early for our engagement shoot and wedding and even stayed a bit late to capture our favorite moments. Her prices are beyond reasonable and her professionalism is unmatched. I highly recommend. Her editing style is beautiful and modern while also feeling nostalgic and homey! 10/10

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is AMAZING. She did our engagement photos and I cannot speak highly enough. She was so cool to work with, had a great eye for location, and was so fantastic with coordinating our forever-awkward selves to get some incredible shots. We both get very anxious on camera but she made the whole experience so safe and welcoming that we ended up having a so much fun. Her communication throughout has been absolute top tier - we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way - and the end result is beyond our wildest dreams. 10/10, cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!

I’m a Sunshine State native, a Pisces, and a lover of the outdoors. Photography is my favorite way to connect with people. The ability to freeze a memory to look back on for years at a time is what kept me wanting more. I am forever in awe that taking photos allows me to create art, while also giving people stories to reflect on down the line.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Sufia through a recommendation from another Central Florida photographer, and we're so glad that we crossed paths with her! We booked her for our small wedding in March of 2021, and shortly after that booking we had engagement photos done. She had perfect recommendations for locations that would fit us, and was also so sweet and patient with our pup that we brought along for the morning too. Even in the super humid Florida weather, we had a great time doing our session and we loved the pictures- They're hanging in our house now! Once our wedding rolled around, Sufia and her partner for the day were lovely to work with- My husband and I are both pretty introverted, but they made the environment relaxing and fun. Sufia found ways to inject little pieces of our life into the final photos, which is so special to get to look back on- Even managing to get in some fun pictures with our very young nieces and nephews, which is no small feat with so many personalities in play. I loved our experiences so much, and actually booked her again just this month for some couple photos to commemorate a personal event. Of course the logistical things are important- she's prompt, professional, and the quality of her work is wonderful- but on top of that, she's simply a great individual with a warm, kind energy, and a genuine desire to gift others with memories of their most special days. If you have the opportunity to work with her, do it!

I've had a camera in my hand since I was a kid. My mom was a wedding photographer also. I spend my days taking photos because it inspires me and fills me with joy. To me, there is nothing better than capturing a beautiful moment. I have photographed weddings all over the US TX, NY and the Hudson Valley, the East Coast, as well as in Europe, the Caribbean, & Hawaii. A few more things about me… I love the ocean, traveling, exploring, hiking, dancing, the change of seasons, the outdoors, sunrises, sunsets, walking without a destination, that few minutes of magical golden light before the sun sets, life… and telling stories with photographs.

Kimberly has a unique talent for capturing special moments in her photography! An absolute pleasure to work with (even made me feel comfortable in front of a camera, which is NOT an easy thing to do!) Her energy and passion for her work exudes from her and is very evident in everything she produces. My family and friends loved working with her too, and she did great managing my crazy bridal party.

We worked through an initial cancellation, she rescheduled with me around the holidays, she knew where and how to take the best shots and she struck the perfect chord of incorporating our wishes during the surprise engagement shoot while standing true when she knew where a good shot would come (and she was right).

We connected instantly... and that is speaking on her bubbly, comforting, and caring personality. My husband and I have never been in front of a lens prior to engagement photos & our wedding, and after seeing our photos you would think we were SUPER MODELS (not kidding). Her work is absolutely breath taking, 99% of my wedding photos look like they came straight out of a magazine... the other 1% she caught some of the BEST, hysterical, memories that came from lots of alcohol, pizza, and the dance floor which we are very grateful for.

If you’re looking for someone to capture your memories in a seriously beautiful way, Christine Tustin is 100% your gal. My husband and I had our wedding last year, and after seeing Christine’s work we had no question we’d ask her to be our photographer. From discussing a contract to receiving our photos, she made the process simple, clear, and stress free, which means eeeverything when planning a wedding! Also, as a bride who had a wedding during COVID-19, I also had anxiety about making sure all our guests felt safe and comfortable. Christine was super flexible, organized, and made sure photos were timely but also thorough, minimizing any stress I had. Christine is not only an artist but she makes you feel like a BOSS. She has a unique way with people, bringing out the best in them through her sense of humor and badass-ness. She’s captured our personalities and relationship PERFECTLY and we feel super blessed to have these memories. Can’t wait to hang them on our photo wall. I could keep on writing/raving FOREVER about her, but will leave it at this. Look no further for an incredible photographer.

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

Jessica did an amazing job with our wedding photos! She made sure that we planned all of the portraits we would want ahead of time so that the day flowed nicely. We have only seen our preview photos so far but are blown away with how beautiful they look! Would recommend for any wedding!

She always has a bright smile on her face and she is so fun to work with. I have witnessed first hand how much her couples and their friends and family enjoy having Joy take their photos! You can see their enjoyment in her photos because Joy captures all of the love and emotion from their big day! I have also been lucky enough to be in front of Joy's camera for a family photo shoot and head shots. Joy made me feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera and I absolutely love those photos and I will always cherish them! I recently had the privilege of working together with Joy to plan and organize a styled photo shoot. She was flexible and open to ideas and she also brought such amazing ideas, along with creative vision and an impeccable sense of style to the table! I recommend Joy to as many of my clients as I can. I get so excited when I learn that we will be working on a wedding together! Not only because I enjoy working with her so much and my clients love working with her too, but also because she is very generous and shares her images of my floral designs with me. It is so important for a florist to have beautiful, professional photos for their portfolio and I know that the photos that receive from Joy will be gorgeous photos that are light filled, romantic and classic!

Being part of my clients story, is where I have found my calling. Capturing moments in your life, freezing those memories, and making them stay alive each time you look at your photos, is truly what makes my time rewarding. There are never too many questions or emails, because everything I provide for you should be exactly as you envision, but better.

Honestly, our big day would have not been as amazing if it wasn’t for Cori. She literally is so amazing! She captured every detail and every unplanned beautiful moment wonderfully. She’s professional, fun, makes everything less stressful, helps out where she can even outside the photos and video just to help ensure your day is as beautiful as possible. We had a lot of hiccups on our wedding and she helped far past what was needed and it made the biggest difference for me personally more than she even knows. She’s level headed and helps you get back focused on your special day. The day, the pictures, the video all AMAZING!

I want the photos of my wedding that I don’t have –; that capture the moments of affection between our family members; that remind us of the little details and big feelings of that day. I want the photos of my father-in-law walking my wife down the aisle, six months before he unexpectedly passed away. Those photos don’t exist. Instead, I have a handful of blurry, poorly edited images, the half-hearted efforts of an amateur photographer who didn’t yet know what he was doing with a camera. At that time I didn’t know the value of a professional wedding photographer, so I didn’t make the investment and it’s one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made.

Having worked with Adam for the past 7 years, it is safe to say he has made the top of my vendor list for photography. Aside from offering classic, iconic and true to life wedding photography, he is simply a delight to work with. As a planner, there are two hallmarks of a great photographer (in addition, of course, to quality work) -- people skills and timing. Adam has the market cornered on both. Aside from partnering with me on crafting a quality timeline so that every shot it covered, perhaps my favorite part of working with Adam is hearing every aunt and mother-of-the-bride try to adopt him. But it doesn't stop there. Be it groomsmen, bridesmaids, or that one tricky family member, everyone drops their guard and falls in love with him before the day is done. The result is authentic and honest wedding photos that freeze those special moments in time. I don't give vendor recommendations lightly, but Adam Kent is first on my list any day of the week.

Every person has their own beauty and truth. I see it, understand it, then reveal it through my portraits. I search for the play of light and shadow to carve the image and tell the story of the day... your day... Your story.

We can not speak well enough about Hash from SeaInk. Our wedding photos still get me teary eyed whenever we look at them because of how beautifully our day was documented! He was able to capture the subtle moments that we probably would have not remembered but now that we have the photos, they are forever engrained in our minds. He was so easy to work with -- had a clear communication style and gave us direction when we needed it. He has more of a laid back approach which suited us not only on the day of the wedding but for all correspondence. He was never pushy, always made us feel comfortable. I chose SeaInk because of the emotive imagery, the clean editing style (things actually look how they are supposed to in terms of the colors) and our comfort around Hash as a photographer. Would 1000% choose SeaInk over and over again as our photographer.

After our first phone conversation I knew I wanted her to be our photographer! We met in person for the first time for our engagement photos in January 2021 and it was like instant best friends. She knew how to make us laugh, it never got awkward, and the pictures turned out phenomenal! Next step was helping to outline the day of our wedding with pictures. She was really helpful in guiding our timeline of photos and making sure we were including all the photos we want. Helped with my stress levels. Then it was finally wedding day!

I am a 25 year-old newly wed who is passionate about seeking the beauty unveiled in authentic, candid moments. My inspiration comes from wanting to capture the memories you will never forget in a way that reminds you why you will never forget them.

Jordan was an absolute pleasure with work with. I was the day of coordinator for a wedding she was photographing. From start to finish she made sure the brides needs, and mine, were met. Right off the bat, she introduced herself and got to work. She flowed so effortlessly into the day, it was like she was made to be part of the wedding day team. It was such a relief, knowing she didn’t need any direction from me. We communicated throughout the night and no matter the schedule change, she was ready with her camera to capture every special moment. I will be recommending her to all my brides. Jordan is so well seasoned in the photographer field that she made sure that every moment she captured, she only had to capture once. This made sure pictures didn’t take to much time out of the day so everyone including the bride and groom enjoyed their day. She made sure to incorporate every aspect of the wedding within her work as well, no matter how small. I would recommend to her anyone needing photos, no matter the event, due to the fact of how effortless she made everything seem.

Cat of SilverFire Photography has mastered her craft. She truly has an eye for photography and an artistry for capturing beautiful moments. We can’t stress how EASY and fun it was to work with her. Even after we spoke with her via zoom on our initial scouting phase for a photographer - my now husband and I instantly knew we wanted her to shoot our wedding. She just has this genuine attitude towards things that is so infectious! We have lost count of the number of times people have said during and after our wedding how much they loved our photographer. We really appreciate how intuitive she is and her direction for poses was incredibly natural and endearing. She knows how to take the beautiful posed-photos as well as the candid b-rolls. We also booked the photo booth package and our guests loved it so much! It was such an honor to have her photograph our wedding. We also are thankful for her second shooter Jonathan who assisted in everything! The photos she gave were so beautiful. We were speechless and over the moon at these priceless forever moments she was able to capture. Seriously, you won’t regret having Cat/Silverfire be your official photographer. We’re beyond grateful, thank you for doing what you do. We wish you more success and you’ve made Alex and I forever happy with these photos, Cat!

Based in Charlottesville, Virginia and keen to travel. I am more than honored that this gets to be my job. That I get to photograph you and all the things you love. I love it because I love my people and I love this earth and I love connection and growing things and all I ever want to do is preserve it.

Cecilia was our wedding photographer’s second shooter and we are so happy to have met her! My husband Earl was quite apprehensive about taking photos (he has about 2 smiles in him and then he’s over it!) but Cecilia hung out with the groom’s party before the ceremony and made all of the guy’s very comfortable and took some great candid photos! During pre-ceremony photos, in addition to taking photos, Cecilia was so kind and helped me with my train/veil when we were walking around the venue finding picture perfect spots! Thank you for making our wedding day so enjoyable, Cecilia!

Hi I'm Christian! I am a wife, and mother of four who loves any adventure with a passport involved. I am a huge travel junky who loves exploring new places, food, and culture. I fell in love with photography while traveling the world as a child. Years later, I tell the unqiue love stories of stylish, wanderlust couples, who are madly in love. I absolutely love photographing weddings and the relationships I build with the couples I serve. On wedding days you can catch me with two cameras on each hip making sure that every detail is captured.

Christian was a pleasure to work with. She captured absolutely beautiful moments during my wedding and her attention to detail was top notch. She and her staff were very professional. I would highly recommend Christian!

24/7 Digital Media was great, especially Jay! Leading up to the wedding, he listened to what we wanted and incorporated our requests into our wedding day. He helped us with the planning and had some creative ideas on how we could use his time to maximize the amount of photos that we wanted without taking time away from our guests. The picture turn around time was quick and I love looking at the pictures now! We have received so many compliments for our photos from friends and family.

I am a wedding and elopement photographer based out of northeast Ohio, but I am down to go wherever the love flows! I love capturing the moments during the wedding day that most couples wouldn't expect to find in their galleries, those moments that you don't even realize are happening around you. I want my couples to be instantly transported into the emotion of their wedding day everything they look through their galleries and albums.

After working with Megan, I would recommend her to all of my clients! She is an absolute joy to work with and helps you feel SUPER comfortable behind the camera.

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based in Colorado, but willing to travel anywhere with no travel fees in 2024! My style is very candid and photojournalistic. I aim to capture your day as it TRULY is. I'm there to document the big moments such as your first kiss and your vows, but also the little moments, like the way you two hold each other, or a glance from a family member that you don't get to see. I hope you look back on your photos and see things that you remember, but also get to see moments you might have missed.

I loved working with Hayley. As an Officiant, I know the importance of making a couple feel comfortable and heard. Hayley does just that for and with her couples. She is always willing to do whatever she can to get that perfect shot and be sure her couple is happy. It is an pleasure to work with her and I am always excited to see her wedding day photos.
