Reykphoto were absolutely amazing when it came to shooting my wedding day. I wish we could print off every single picture. They were professional in communication and honestly not a moment of the day was missed. They executed our vision so well and also had great input on some creative shots we would never have thought of! Super friendly team - our entire family was raving about our “friendly photographers”. I’m super particular about how my photos are edited and I had 0 complaints on the turn out. The turn around for photos was quick and I can’t wait to use them in the future for any family events.

Would you like to remember everything? Well, if you ask me the answer is YESSSS! When it comes to your wedding day, of course you want to remember everything! You want to remember all the details you put so much hard work into, your new spouse wiping away those happy tears as you walk down the aisle, and your grandparent getting down on the dance floor!

We booked Darby for our engagement photos and our wedding back in June. I honestly cannot recommend her enough. She is so kind and fun to work with, talented at her craft, and creative in her vision. Every photo we have received is amazing and beautiful. Our photos truly look like art and I cannot wait to get some printed out. She made our wedding look like a dreamy fairytale and worked so well even when we had to take photos outside in the rain! Her positive attitude was infectious and she made our day that much more fun. Thank you Darby!!!

I’m based in North Georgia, but always happy to travel wherever the love (and the good vibes) take me... I believe wedding photos should be the kind you hold onto forever ..the ones that make you feel something every single time you look at them. If you’re loving my work and feel like we might be the right fit, I’d love to connect! I take on a limited number of weddings each year so I can really get to know my couples. You’re not just another booking to me.. I truly care about creating a connection, capturing your story, and hopefully becoming friends along the way (besties if we’re lucky!!

Hi, I'm Kayla, and I believe that your wedding day should reflect what you and your beloved want; **not** what others want. Yep–I said it. Your wedding day can be your greatest adventure yet, and your decision to elope can trailblaze the way for more intention in your life. How? Eloping is a coming home to yourself and your beloved because you’re boiling all the details of your day down to what really matters. With that extra space in your day, void of distractions, you're truly free to live out your day with intention. I would be so thrilled and honored to come alongside you and help capture and craft your best day ever!

Kayla is absolutely amazing and the sweetest ever, and working with her was such a joy! She really cares so much about what she does and that shows in her work. No detail gets overlooked!

We just received our full wedding gallery, and the photos are absolutely stunning — over 1,300 beautiful images capturing every detail, emotion, and moment of our day.

The crew’s creativity, attention to detail, and personalized approach made us feel like we were in the best possible hands. They listened to what was important to us and delivered exactly that — candid laughter, emotional glances, stunning scenery, and all the in-between moments we’ll cherish forever.
