We recently had the pleasure of working with Arie T Photography for our engagement photo session, and I can't recommend her enough! From the moment we arrived, Arie made us feel comfortable and at ease. Which really helped to capture our genuine emotions and connection in the photos. Arie's professionalism and creativity shone through as she guided us through various poses and settings while allowing us to showcase our personalities. Our original plan did not go as planned. I was really upset. Before we arrived Arie had a plan for us. The locations she chose were stunning and perfectly suited to our style. She saved the day! The raw photos were beautiful. When we received the edited photos….we were absolutely gagged! Each shot was beautifully composed and the edits were flawless, enhancing the natural beauty of the images. Overall, our engagement photo session with Arie T Photography was incredible.

“Our photographer really took the time to connect with us, and we found that we shared a lot of common interests! She made us feel very comfortable, and completely followed our desires for candid and more relaxed photos. She was amazing at posing and directing us, as well as going with the flow and capturing what was happening in the moment. We couldn’t be more happy! We love all of the photos taken outside- our couples, wedding party, and golden hour photos feel so genuine and organic and I think that’s what our photographer really excelled in. Our golden hour photos specifically are very romantic and magical- definitely our favorites! I cannot give enough praise to the level of communication given during the planning process. Wedding planning is hard and it gets tricky to keep track of everything. From Darcy at the start getting us booked to Hannah throughout the planning process, I was so grateful for the texts and emails keeping me updated and on track. I am very grateful to have found OLAS, and have already recommended them to my friends getting married next year.”

Wow, how can we even begin to describe Claudia? From our very first call, she was so kind, outgoing, and personable. We wanted someone who could make us feel comfortable and capture our love in a way that felt real, and she did exactly that. Our engagement and wedding photos are absolutely stunning, timeless, emotional, and beautifully true to who we are. My husband and I don’t take many photos together, but Claudia made us feel completely at ease and was our biggest cheerleader the entire time. She even managed my family with such grace despite a language barrier, which meant so much to me. Having Claudia as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We’re endlessly grateful for the way she captured the love and joy of our day. We truly can’t recommend her enough!!

We reserved Joey two years before our wedding in the summer, for both photography and videography. We are amazed by the quality of the pictures and videos and the overall service we have received. Joey was very professional and friendly throughout the process and is always available to answer our questions. On the wedding day, he and his team were early and worked restlessly to get all the details of my wedding, getting ready to the send-off. The final photos and videos were plentiful and were professionally and naturally edited, as I had requested during our consultation. I could not be happier with our experience with him and his team, and I strongly recommend using his service for your wedding day.

My love for photography is my passion. I take it with me everywhere I go, I capture pictures of my daily life and I print those pictures once a month, I know it will be worth it when I'm old and look back at life. Being a wedding photographer is a very emotional/technical thing, it is a challenge to create technically correct, well-composed, perfectly lit, beautiful images all day long, every weekend. Wedding photography is not for everyone, but it's for me! I love that challenge. Bring it on!

Awarded Best of Zola
Andrea was the best decision I made for my wedding! She has such a great energy, was so excited and responsive from the first moment of contact. I had a very small family-only ceremony in North Georgia and she captured my day so beautifully. I am so glad I chose her, she made everything run so much smoother. I usually hate pictures of myself but she really did a fantastic job of making me feel more comfortable in front of the camera and I actually enjoyed taking the pictures!

Atlanta, GA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,200

I’m a wedding photographer who truly believes the best photos come from real moments. The laughs you don’t plan, the quiet pauses, the happy tears — those are the things that matter most to me when I’m photographing a wedding day.I love working with couples who care more about meaning than perfection and want photos that feel timeless and true to who they are. If you’re looking for someone who keeps things calm, blends in when it matters, and documents your day as it really felt, I’d love to be part of it.

I approached Emma when I got my engagement photos back and was utterly disappointed by the original photographer and editor. I was at my whits end and Emma as calmly and supporting as possible said, send me them and let me see. I sent her the photos, already losing confidence in wanting to post them. Emma replied back and said, I got you.. give me a few days. Within 2 weeks I went from not wanting to use those photos to being COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH THEM. She heard my issues with the original photos, took notes, included me in the creative process on if I liked the direction she was going, and completely over exceeded my expectations. Working with Emma, you not only get a professional, but an empathetic human being who understands that sometimes its not about getting the shot, but creating a moment that can transcend beyond words can compare. Her artistic touch elevates the imagery and I am soo happy to have her as my photographer.

I'm Savanna, a wedding photographer who specializes in non-traditional and laid-back days. My work is documentary style, and it is my intention that your photos allow you to feel exactly how you did when they were taken, years later.

From our first conversation, we knew Savanna was who we wanted by our side on our wedding day. Her warm, supportive energy put us both at ease throughout the day. She immediately understood our friends and family so well, adding to the positive energy in the room and taking photos that captured everything we love about them. Her values-led approach to photo planning helped us understand the “why” behind different photography moments, helping us skip cookie-cutter photo ops and capture the moments that count. Her photos speak for themselves: Savanna is a true artist. Her photos are not only beautiful, but captured the feeling of the day, personalities of our loved ones, and magical moments we didn’t even know happened. We truly could not be more grateful & glad to have worked with her.

Chris was a 10/10 as our wedding photographer.

He captured the vibe and aesthetic we talked about while also capturing moments that we didn’t even realize were happening. He made everyone feel at ease and maintained an high attention. Highly recommended!

Chrissandra is a destination wedding & portrait photographer, specializing in capturing clean, effortless imagery. We believe in soaking up every blissful moment. We'll be there to blend into the background, capturing the genuine moments, the stolen glances & the belly laughs. Think of us as your visual storytellers, the ones who translate the emotions of the day into photographs that will be as genuine & unforgettable as you are.

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Chris! From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, she was absolutely phenomenal. Chris brought the perfect balance of professionalism and warmth, which made both of us feel completely at ease in front of the camera — and that’s saying a lot, since we don’t usually consider ourselves very photogenic! She was incredibly knowledgeable — not only about lighting and posing, but also in suggesting great locations that truly enhanced our photos. Her direction helped us look natural and feel confident, and the results speak for themselves. The photos are stunning. We’ve already framed most of them, and they’ve become the perfect start to our new family’s photo collection. On our wedding day, Chris was efficient, calm, and so easy to work with — it honestly felt like having a trusted friend with us who just happened to be capturing every meaningful moment. She blended in seamlessly while still managing to get every shot we could have hoped for. We highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for high-quality, beautiful photos. She’s everything you could want in a photographer — talented, reliable, fun to work with, and absolutely worth every penny!

Fotos By Fola 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Atlanta, GA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,200

My name is Afolabi Sogunro. As you've probably noticed that’s where the “FOLA” in Fotos by Fola comes from. Unlike many other photographers who knew that's what they wanted to do, for me it was actually a hidden talent discovered by others. I’ve always loved and enjoyed taking pictures for people or at random events but never truly knew I had an eye for it. Eventually after persistent encouragement from family and friends, I took photography by the horn and have never looked back since. I love photography for many reasons, but mainly because of how it preserves moments that will always be remembered.

If you are considering booking with Fola, do it now! I am a September 2023 Bride, engaged in August 2022, and Fola has been there every step of the way. The photos speak for themselves, but you are also booking a vendor who builds relationships with his clients and has IMPECCABLE attention to detail. Fola made us feel comfortable during every shoot, reminded me to take the day in as the bride, and, most importantly, ensured we had fun! While we waited for our final photos, Fola sent over some iPhone teaser videos for us to have content from our big day. His photos brought to life the fairytale I always dreamed my wedding would be. Pre-wedding shoot to the post-wedding debrief, Fola has remained responsive, patient, kind, and professional. If you want a vendor who will deliver amazing photos and customer service, you need to go with FotosbyFola.

Savanna Kaye is a photo + creative arts business that exists to not only capture the face of humanity but the soul as well. We promise to do this in light, for love, and with people (yes, you!). The dream is to tell stories. Whether that's through photographs, videos, writing, or really whatever the platform-- I want to connect with people on a level that goes deeper than meets the eye. I want to share in the mountain top moments, the valleys, the victories and the defeats. I want to be a connecter. And that's what I promise to do if we ever work together.

Savanna Kaye is truly a dream photographer—and an even better person. We didn’t find her until after our engagement shoot, but she still wanted to get to know us before the big day and even asked to grab drinks just to establish a relationship. That level of care says everything about who she is: thoughtful, genuine, and deeply invested in her couples. From the start, Savanna made it clear that our vision was her priority. She’s incredibly organized, full of creative ideas, and truly passionate about what she does. She brings this calm confidence and creative energy that makes you feel like you’ve known her forever. Her energy is magnetic—positive, professional, and exactly what you want on such a big day. Her sneak peeks came back so quickly after the wedding, and they were absolutely stunning. We are counting down the days until we get the rest of the photos because we already know they’ll be perfect. Savanna’s work speaks for itself—exquisite, emotional, and full of life. But what really sets her apart is how much she cares. We can’t recommend her enough!

Hi! I’m a wedding, lifestyle and family photographer based in Alpharetta, GA. I specialize in capturing natural, emotional, and timeless moments — whether it’s a family session, couple shoot, or special event. I offer outdoor golden hour sessions, in-home lifestyle photography, and studio shoots. My goal is to make you feel comfortable and capture real emotions, not posed pictures. I individually edit every photo — no presets, only personalized color grading. I’d love to work with you 🤍

We had such an amazing experience working with our engagement photographer! From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and genuinely excited about the whole process. Neither of us are used to being in front of the camera, but she gave great direction while still keeping everything natural and fun. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful—better than we could have imagined. She captured not just how we look, but really who we are as a couple. Every shot feels authentic and full of emotion, and we’ll treasure these memories forever. On top of that, Dariia was professional, responsive, and clearly passionate about her work. The turnaround time was quick, and the quality exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend Dariia to anyone looking for a photographer, especially for such a special moment. We’re so grateful for the experience and these incredible photos!

Tasteful Tea Photography

  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Atlanta, GA

My style is documentary/editorial. I love an image that looks like it was taken on a film camera, and I'm a huge fan of the modern-day blur. However, I know it's important to get the MUST grab traditional photos if the couple want's them! I'm a huge fan of flash photography as well as natural light. I've been taking photos for seven years while I have owned my own wedding band that has performed all throughout the south. I think it's important to laugh and it's even more important that you feel like you look your best.

I want to set the tone. I’m a single mom who met the man of her dreams after moving to a rural city from Atlanta. He decides he wants to marry me very quickly and I have only a few months to plan a wedding. My budget is extremely small, but my family is very large. No matter what, there’s going to be at least 100 people there. It’s a month before the big day, and I’m frantically trying to find a photographer within my price range. My cousin finds Tasteful Tea and Charissa…essentially making the best possible decision ever for my wedding. She’s sweet, kind, and talented; willing to meet you where you are as far as planning or vision. She helping me pull off this spectacular day for under 6k and made it look fabulous in the process. She asked about potential poses, gave tips on crucial moments and wanted to know every detail from faces/names/relationships to moments I wanted captured. Charissa captured the love, the chaos, the essence, and fun of my special day. For that, I’ll always have something nice to say about her work. Quick turnaround too! Thank you, again, Charissa! Your photos deserve to be in someone’s gallery.
