We used Justin for our engagement pictures and our wedding and the pictures are perfect! He is nice, professional, creative, flexible, and has an amazing personality that is really easy to connect with. He caught the most amazing moments and had wonderfully creative ideas to make the process fun and charming. At the ceremony you hardly knew he was there but yet he didn’t miss a beat when it came to capturing the wedding party, guest, and of course the fun on the dance floor. You can’t make a better choice for your photographer.

Stephanie Small Photography

5.0

Asheboro, NC
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Durham, NC

I am from a small town in North Carolina. I grew up being in front of a camera doing pageants and modeling. I know what it is like to have no direction at a photoshoot and leave disappointed. I strive to never make anyone feel this way when they leave a session and certainly not on your wedding day. I coach you and help pose you so that you do not feel or look awkward. Photos are not only about how you look, but also the memories that go along with them. When I am not taking pictures, you can find me hanging out with my husband and two kids.

As a Wedding Planner I've worked with Special Capture several times for weddings and each time the clients have been satisfied with their finished videos. Marlon and his team (he always brings 2 if not more videographers to the wedding) help coach the wedding party for fun poses and shots and keep everyone laughing. Special Capture is not the "fly on the wall" type of videographer, they will be in the action capturing every detail even on the dance floor which makes for some awesome videos.

Nicki Seefried Photography

Durham, NC
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,200

Growing weary in the search for the right photographer? Maybe interactions are feeling kinda transactional, you just can't picture yourself in the galleries you're seeing, or you're tired of hearing we all love pizza, margs, and wine nights? Now I don't want to start of this relationship with a lie...I honestly love those things too. BUT, as you search for the right person to capture your loved ones, your growing kiddos, or your big day, who can blame you for wanting to connect a little deeper?

I would highly recommend Nicki as a wedding photographer. We hired her for our small intimate wedding we had in Pinehurst NC. She was extremely professional and immediately made us feel comfortable. She gave great direction and was quick and efficient with her vision. The photos came out amazing with incredible editing. She had the photos back to us very quickly. I along with everyone else who attended the wedding was very impressed. We are so grateful Nicki was able to help us out.

Fancy This Photography

Durham, NC
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500

At Fancy This Photography, my goal is to capture the essence of who you are on the most important day of your life. When I got married, my first concern with hiring a photographer is that they understood the fun and unique side of who I was, and could capture that. I want the same thing for you. My passion is working with couples who want something a bit out of the ordinary for their wedding. The couple that’s real, the one who’s willing to be exactly who they are. The one who puts their relationships as top priority, and who want the people who are most special to them in the world to witness the joy of their wedding.

As a vendor, I have used and recommended Nikki for both corporate and event photography, and every shoot with her is fantastic! She is professional, makes clients feel at ease, delivers photos in a timely and easy to access manner and is a true pleasure to work with. She gives gentle instruction to those who need it and somehow always manages to deliver an abundance of photos in a wide variety! Will continue to recommend and use personally, over and over again!

Amy Ellis Photography

5.0

Durham, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500

This storyteller believes that your wedding day shouldn't feel like a photo shoot, but should be full of genuine moments that are unique to your love story. As a fly on the wall with a photojournalist style, I am less concerned about "blog worthy" shots and more about the candids that show who you are and who you love. I find importance in preserving fleeting moments and the importance of printing photos, not just letting them live in an online gallery.

Holy cow! When we were looking for a photographer and we saw Amy’s photography we reached out right away hoping she would have availability. We decided against doing engagement photos and instead had Amy come a day early for the rehearsal dinner which we were so happy. Amy made sure to keep in touch leading up to the wedding and guided us regarding some of the decision making for day of. She was so easy to be around and was totally flexible with impending weather. It ended up raining day of and Amy was still able to get the most amazing shots. We wanted to make sure that she was able to capture the special moments during our weekend and she did just that. We had an amazing time looking through all of the photos and will treasure them FOREVER! Also, she got everything back to us so quickly which was so nice. We would 100% recommend hiring Amy for your photos. She is a rockstar with an amazing eye.

Durham, NC
  • Classic style

I’m Tammy Jean Lamoureux, artist, partner, mother, photographer. In the twenty years that I’ve been taking pictures, photography has been my tool for seeing beauty in the everyday. My hope is to document the biggest moments of people’s lives while also illuminating those small moments of magic that hide in plain sight. The poetry of life is everywhere, and I try to create honest, heartfelt photographs that help us carry a little of that beauty along with us. I believe in the joy of improvisation, the tenderness in awkward moments, and photographs as time machines. Your moments are so precious. I’d be honored to document them.

I cannot say enough good things about working with Tammy! In addition to being so kind, professional, and easy to work with, the quality of her work speaks for itself. Tammy is truly an artist. The photos we received from our engagement shoot and wedding are more than we could have hoped for. Her work captures the beauty in the small moments throughout the day in addition to the big ones. These small moments helped to tell such an intimate story of our wedding day and are some of the photos that I treasure the most! Tammy made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She provided a perfect balance of subtle guidance while also allowing us to interact in a way that felt natural to us, resulting in photos that really captured our personalities and relationship. When planning our wedding, we knew that the decision of booking a photographer was one of the most important that we would make, and I am so grateful that we made the decision to go with Tammy. I would 100% work with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in NC! P.s. wanted to give a special shout out to her black and white photos! She is truly a magician at editing.

My name is Arsalan — "RC" for short. Over many years, I have honed an appreciation for the textures of every day life: shadows shifting with time, the subtle glimpse of emotion in someone's face, or a dapple of light on concrete. Trained as an architect, I approach photography through the same lens with which I view the built world – with a thoughtful eye for light, composition, and poetry. Photography, to me, is about eternalizing this beauty, so that we can keep a little of its magic with us.

We were so fortunate to have Rebecca as our wedding photographer. From start to finish, Rebecca was highly communicative, accessible, friendly, and professional. She was always more than happy to answer any questions that we had either via email or through one of our video calls. Additionally, her email responses were timely and helpful.

There are no amount of words to be able to explain how much I enjoyed working with Morgan for our wedding! Long story short, 6 weeks out we were suddenly in need of a new photographer & videographer. I frantically posted in a wedding facebook group & Morgan was recommended. Having to find a new photographer & finding Morgan was a huge blessing in disguise. From our first call, she made me feel at ease with her not only capturing our love story but also as an asset to help things run smoothly on our big day! Though we met Morgan for the first time on our wedding day, she immediately made us feel comfortable. She is so fun and kind but also knows how to take charge when needed! She is extremely organized & did a great job capturing the photos I wanted based on inspiration photos. Our bridal party had so much fun taking photos which says a lot if you've ever been a part of one. My hubby even enjoyed taking photos which he hates to do! Her second shooter, Hannah, was super sweet, a great help, and added amazing ideas & photos. Morgan gave us so many beautiful photos that we will cherish forever!

We met for coffee and discussed how we wanted our wedding to be, and we just knew she was who we wanted as our photographer. She helped with planning so when our wedding day arrived, it was simply perfect! We woke up the day after our wedding to beautiful sneak peeks and our whole wedding album was complete a few weeks later. The whole process was simply amazing!

Hi, I'm Candy! I love capturing all of the raw, beautiful moments as they naturally unfold on your wedding day. Candids are some of my favorite photos! Don't worry; I will most definitely get those posed family photos as well, but for most of the day, I'm there to document it all as it naturally happens. I would love to chat with you more about your wedding plans and how I can be a part of documenting it!

My husband Kevin and I were looking for an elopement photographer in Cary, NC. It was a challenge to find the right person as we needed someone who's bilingual (Spanish and English). Candy is a wonderful person and photographer. She made us feel so comfortable, specially my husband who is ex-military and is a little bit of an introvert. I am so thankful for her talent as she was able to capture the perfect moments. The quality and artistic style of her photos are out of this world.

Giuliana shot some incredible pictures throughout the day, without making special moments be forced. We were able to check in and adjust a few things as needed, and her flexibility and professionalism were so appreciated. I'm looking forward to working with this team again soon!

Hello my name is Mirabela, I am a wife, a mom and a woman on the go. Standing still is not in my nature! Many might wonder how did you come up with that name? Well my first born, was my inspiration, my drive. Sofia for the longest time couldn't pronounce the letter S and she would call herself Fofia. She has thought me to be a better person and made me a new me. The Sailboat on my logo represents my son Hunter known as Captain Hunter. There is many ways to look at things, and what of a better way other than capturing those angles with my camera. I don't just capture pictures, I capture a story, Your Story!

I loved working with Fofia Studio Creations and Mirabela! Not only are her photos gorgeous but she is so easy to work with. She really pays attention to the details and strives to make everything as easy as possible for her couples and other vendors. I definitely recommend working with her!

As a wedding photographer, I have the honor of capturing the most special moments of a couple's life and turning them into cherished memories that last forever. Beyond weddings, I love photographing families and people from all walks of life, freezing moments in time that tell unique stories.

I had been going back and forth with my now husband for months on if we should hire a photographer or use a family friend but one meeting with Nicole showed me that she was the perfect person for this job. She made me and Josh feel comfortable, safe and respected. I have never felt more beautiful than I did captured in these photos by Nicole. She felt like a part of my extended family that day and made the entire day perfect. If you're thinking of hiring Nicole, I would absolutely recommend it and you will not regret it.

I’m Tugba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have a BA and an MFA from Boston University in visual arts. Photography has been more than a hobby for me. Throughout my life and education, I have often used photography as a medium to explore my artistic endeavors. *pronounced “Too-baa”

We loved working with Tugba so much! From the moment I (the bride) met her I knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did; she was very professional (responsive to communications, patient with the number of questions we had) and accommodating throughout the entire three years that we worked with her as we had to reschedule our wedding TWICE! Tugba has such a wonderful eye and is very experienced; she captured all the key moments that we indicated we wanted captured, and took other photos we didn't even know that we wanted but are so glad that we have. Also, neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Tugba directed us into the best lighting and poses to make sure we looked our best. She and her second photographer were as unobtrusive as possible throughout the event, while still managing to capture some really amazing candid shots that we are going to cherish as much as the posed ones. We do not have the words to express how much we love our wedding photos -- they are gorgeous and every time we look at them we are able to relive our magical day. We would highly recommend Tugba for your photography needs.

Not only is she kind, relaxed and fun while working, but the results of her photos are incredible. We have looked at our wedding photos everyday for the last 3+ months since, and have felt nothing but joy. Our appreciation for Gio is unending as we know we will hold these photos close for the rest of our lives. She captured these memories perfectly. Oh! and the #1 compliment we have received from others about our wedding is how WONDERFUL the photos are.

I specialize in Glacier National Park and Western North Carolina elopements and love to serve couples with unlimited planning assistance.

We were SO blessed to have Des. She is so much more than a photographer. She has become our biggest hype girl and such a close friend, since working working with her. She will take such excellent care of you and make sure that you have a day that is an honest reflection of your relationship. She was able to guide us into choosing the most epic location, connect us with incredible vendors, and put us at complete ease. We’re super laid back and she made everything so easy and chill. We were taken care of through the entire experience. We we’re nervous about exploring somewhere new, but Des knows her stuff and was able to navigate us through the location scouting process seamlessly. The day of felt nothing like a photo session and more like hanging out with a really cool friend that gave you as much space as you needed to be vulnerable with your partner, while also keeping the hype up. She had such an incredible pulse on our needs. We were nervous about looking awkward or feeling camera-shy, but she knew exactly what to say to help up feel comfortable. There was no awkward posing or forced emotion, just really subtle prompting that helped you ease into each moment. The entire day was amazing and none of it would have happened without her skill and guidance. We felt like we could trust her to keep us present in the most important moments. We cried when we got our images, they were absolutely breathtaking and 1000% us. We loved being able to share this day through these images with all of our friends and family that weren’t there. They were able to laugh and cry with us. Getting your gallery from Des is like getting to relive your favorite day all over again. She is an absolute gem that impacted our lives in such a positive way. We had no idea how gorgeous Montana was until Des blew our minds with all of the incredible knowledge that she has. If you’re curious about how amazing eloping can be, she’s the girl to talk to. We would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

    Yosaidy was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. The photos came out even more beautiful than we had imagined and she was so easy to work with. She is an absolute must hire.

    Hi, I'm Danielle & I've been known to hype people up! I'm a creative entrepreneur who's been chasing her dreams since starting my biz at 21. Photography, providing education for photographers, and now podcasting, are kind of my thing! Cheesy teen movies make me happy, and I watch way too much New Girl. I have a slight addiction to white cheddar popcorn, and wine is my true love language. I want to help + hype you up for whatever stage of life you're in, by showing you that you are not alone in your thoughts, feelings or experiences and that you already have everything you could ever need to make your dreams a reality.

    I worked with Danielle as a planner from Lucky Day Events Co. on a recent wedding. Danielle had the whole incredible vendor team cracking up the entire night! She was super professional, but fun, making the guests laugh which of course makes for the best candid/natural photos. She stayed beautifully on time and delivered photos to us and the clients in record time. Literally gave us sneaks to post to social media THAT NIGHT. I can't wait to work with her again on a wedding!

    I'm a Raleigh based photographer that is madly in love with photography. Secondly, I'm a father, husband, and lover of life. I'm truly blessed to have such a wonderful family that supported and encouraged me to further pursue my passion and to start my photography business

    I chose One Vision Photography for my wedding September 16, 2023. Derrick and his team did an amazing job making my husband & I comfortable during our engagement session. From that moment, I knew he would be our preferred photographer for our wedding date as well. Derrick also, shared photos with my husband and I shortly after our wedding date. I did not have to wait an over anticipate the outcome of his awesome work. I highly recommend Derrick for all of your wedding related events.

    I have always been a very visual person, find happiness in the details, and love people who march to the beat of their own drum. Deep conversations are my kind my thing, and people who are madly in love and aren’t afraid to show it make me very happy. I’m a photographer, yes, but also a storyteller, creative soul, educator, marriage supporter, and hopefully someone you would call your friend.

    She easily fit in with our friends and family and was so easy to collaborate with when we wanted particular shots. She was always there in the right moment capturing candid moments and we absolutely love her style photography and the way she works with natural light. She was an absolute joy to work with and we could not be happier with our photos.

    I've always loved photography. The ability to freeze those special moments in time to cherish forever is such a strong passion of mine. I love being behind a camera. Whether it's capturing my husband and kids reading a book together or the first time a groom sees his bride. Every photo has it's own story to tell. I live in Raleigh, NC but love to travel, anywhere and everywhere! I can't wait to hear from you and hope to become a part of that special moment in your life!

    Kelly is a joy to work with. She has a way of connecting with her couples to have them look natural and relaxed. Each time she shoots a wedding at our venue she captures different photos of our property. She works hard to get every picture possible and all those special moments!

    She loves what she does, and values the unique opportunities that each of her clients give her. Sweet tea is her fuel of choice and ice cream keeps her going, but it’s her faith in Christ that grounds her. It’s no wonder that Leslie excels in capturing the love that others share, specializing in weddings and engagements. A triplet herself, Leslie is very close to her family, and enjoys shooting family and newborn portraits, too. Her fashion portraiture often takes her outdoors, the beach sets her soul on fire, and you may forget she’s behind the camera at all.

    My goal is to capture every part of your story. The parts you planned for so long, the parts that didn’t go exactly as planned, and the parts that will make you laugh and cry with joy when you look back years later. I want them all, because I would want nothing less for myself, and because this part of your life, even if it isn’t exactly what you thought it would be, might be the most beautiful piece of all.

    I'm Mina! I am delighted to get to know you, and deeply honored to photograph your love story. It's lovely to meet you. I believe in beauty. In togetherness. In the magic of life stories. In the seeming impossibility of living on a rock arcing gracefully through space, where we laugh and feel and love and cry and celebrate and embrace one another and weave our own life stories as we move through time together. It's overwhelming in the most beautiful way.
