James Carroll Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,700
  • Serves Belspring, VA

I’m a wedding photographer based in Virginia, and I care more about how your day felt than how perfectly it followed a plan. I show up calm, pay attention, and let things unfold naturally; giving direction when needed and stepping back when it’s not. I’m drawn to the in-between moments: the laughter, the quiet breaths, the way your people show up for you. Weddings are emotional, chaotic, joyful, and imperfect, and I’m comfortable in all of it. If you want a photographer who feels more like a steady presence than a vendor, you’re in the right place.

James is absolutely amazing! We hired James a little over a year ago for our wedding! We were not getting married in our hometown so we decided to find someone in the town would get married in! We had our Engagement session with James last year in June in Roanoke Virginia. We were nervous before going, because sometimes the first session with a new photographer can be a little uncomfortable. Ours was FAR from it! We had the absolute best time! We laughed a lot and James was so fun to work with! Not to mention the pictures we got back from it were absolutely incredible. I could not recommend James more! Before our wedding James kept in touch and up to date with everything! This helped ease my anxiety before our big day. James arrived ahead of schedule on our wedding day and got started immediately! He is by far our favorite photographer that we have worked with and we will definitely be making trips to Roanoke in the future just to book sessions with him because yes we love him that much! We got our wedding pictures back and they are absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for better! We highly recommend booking James! You will not be disappointed at all! He is simply the best!

I'm so glad you're here! Its almost like our entire lives led us to this moment, huh? I am a professional hype woman and storyteller, and I can't wait to meet and connect with you! I started photography back in 2016, but finally got the courage to create this community in August of 2023 and I am so glad I did. I am passionate about celebrating you! Your story is so unique and created especially for you, and I want to celebrate that! Telling your story is the privilege of my existence, and I'm honored to serve you.

Haylee was the perfect choice as our wedding photographer! From the very beginning, she was extremely easy to talk to and was quick to answer all of my questions whenever they came up - she truly put me at ease through the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Haylee’s attention to detail and creative eye were evident in all of the pictures she captured. Our guests raved over Haylee - both during the wedding and after. She truly felt like a part of the family while seamlessly blending into the background. Haylee was a joy to work with and truly made us feel so comfortable on our big day and we would highly recommend her to anyone considering her. You won’t regret it!

We had such a great experience with OLAS! Our photographer, Jasmine, was a very calming and helpful presence during the day. She was professional and patient and worked collaboratively with us and our families to adjust to our shot needs and any other minor chances. She also gave clear directions on how to pose! The photos came out really wonderful - we love the warmer tones and Jasmine captured the joy, fun, and touching moments really well. The OLAS team was very professional from beginning to end and we appreciated the level of detail through the planning process.

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

Your wedding day should feel like you, relaxed and joyful, surrounded by the people you love most. It’s about real moments, laughter, happy tears, and the quiet in between times that make the day truly yours. I take a documentary style approach to capture those moments as they happen, so you don’t feel like your day is just a checklist. I step in when needed, like for family formals, but mostly focus on letting you enjoy your day while those candid moments unfold naturally.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emie and her assistant Michael were fantastic! From our first meeting with Emie, she made sure that our wishes were heard and made sure that it was something she could capture. Through the planning process, she reassured us and continuously instilled confidence in us. On the day of our wedding, her and Michael were early and comforting. They did getting ready photos, our first look, bridal party photos, and family photos per our shot list. They were so knowledgable and paid great attention to the lighting and backdrop, having us change angles a few times to account for it. She coached us through poses and, most importantly, what to do with our hands. During the ceremony and reception, they both were able to capture shots that we had no idea they were even in position for! They also brought disposable cameras to the event for our guests to take candids throughout the night and we’re super excited to see how those turn out! 
Additionally, they were very professional in handling relatives who wanted to take pictures on their own equipment throughout the day. They were so fun to work with, we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer in the Albemarle area!

We are professionals at everything that we do and stay connected with couples before and after the Big Day.

Precious Pics White Glove was a great choice for our wedding photography. I liked their communication style, they were responsive and kept us informed throughout the process. The quality of their work was just as I wanted, capturing all the special moments beautifully. They provided a detailed timeline to help keep us on schedule, which was really helpful. My only wish is that our wedding videos were a bit longer, as I think there was more footage they could have included. However, they explained this would affect the overall look, so I understand their decision. Overall, our experience with Precious Pics White Glove was very positive and I would recommend them to other couples.

We could not be happier with our experience with Maria from MTD Photo Co. She photographed our entire wedding weekend, including our welcome party and the full wedding day, and truly exceeded every expectation. Maria was professional, warm, and so easy to work with from start to finish. We were blown away by how quickly everything was delivered — we received a sneak peek gallery within a week of the wedding and our full gallery just one month later. Every single photo is absolutely beautiful, and we are genuinely in awe of her work. She captured the emotions, the details, and all the special moments so perfectly. Her second photographer, Jackson, was equally wonderful — incredibly helpful, friendly, and professional throughout the entire weekend. Together, they made us feel comfortable and confident, and it truly shows in the photos. We are so grateful to have these memories so beautifully documented and cannot recommend Maria and MTD Photo Co. highly enough.

Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some.

Being able to capture that moment- and then deliver it to the couple to keep forever- it’s truly the best. I’m here to capture so much more than just memories. I’m here to capture feeling. . The sweet glances that make your fingertips tingle. The look that makes your heart thump in your chest. The loopy butterflies in your stomach as you’re about to walk down the aisle. Those feelings. The photos I produce allow you to hold those feelings in your hand, and keep them safe for eternity.

His experience shone through as he was comfortable facilitating numerous group photos and offering great suggestions on positioning. Ozan also scoped out the venue ahead of time and brought us to multiple spots for one-of-a-kind photos we hadn't even thought of taking on our own. The final edited photos were delivered quickly after the wedding, and the quality was truly professional and a cut above the rest.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

Stephanie was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. On our wedding day, she was calm, friendly, and on top of it. She and her second photographer struck the perfect balance of being professional and efficient while also feeling like casual friends, which made the entire experience feel natural and fun. My husband and I felt totally comfortable with her guidance and direction during photos, and she made the whole process so easy, even with unpredictable weather and changing light. She adapted quickly and found the perfect locations around our venue to make sure we got the best possible shots. We were so excited to receive sneak peeks shortly after the wedding, and the photos were absolutely stunning. The quality was flawless and just captured the beauty of our day. She also did our engagement session, and those remain some of our favorite photos ever (other than the wedding, of course).

Before weddings, I spent a decade as a travel reporter, which shaped my storytelling approach. I also offer a seamless photo+video bundle with my trusted videographer, so your day is captured beautifully—without any chaos.

Elena did a wonderful job capturing the pictures we wanted at our wedding. She was efficient. My husband and I did not want to spend a ton of time taking posed photos and wanted her to capture us dancing and living in the moment, and she did just that. We got wonderful pictures of us posing and of us dancing. Definitely recommend her!!

I was lucky enough to have Manai photograph our special day this past July. Most of the wedding was a whirlwind, so I am so grateful to have such beautiful photos of our day to look back on. Manai was great to work with and captured the day in such a beautiful way. Even better than my wedding Pinterest board could have imagined!! I am not used to taking photos so I was pretty nervous at first but he had me laughing and put me at ease in no time. Photography is such an important part of your wedding day, and you want to make sure you pick someone great. That person is Manai!! You won’t be disappointed! Manai is such a professional and talented photographer. All my photos look like they belong in a magazine. They all came out so well. I have the most beautiful photos of not only me and my husband, but our friends and family having a great time. Thank you so much for capturing the most important day of our lives. I even have a photo of me running to get margaritas post ceremony!! He didn’t miss a thing! If you are looking for the perfect person to capture your special day, this is your sign!! Just look at these stunning photos. He is the best!!!

I am a portrait photographer based in Roanoke, Virginia. I have always had a passion for capturing special moments, mostly of my family. I have been the designated family photographer for as long as I can remember and have been offering my services professionally since 2021. When I'm not at a shoot, you can likely find me with my nose in a book, cheering on the Chicago Bears, or capturing memories of my own.

Kelsey is the BEST photographer! I knew we would choose her after browsing through her portfolio, we fell in love with her work! Kelsey is super professional and also super sweet. She is very patient and is a great communicator. Very quick to give you sneak peeks! We are beyond grateful for her taking the time to capture our special day, all of the small moments we find/found big to us to the big moments. We will definitely be using her in the future for any photoshoot needs as well as recommending her to everyone!

Hi, its Jessica, I am a couples and wedding photographer based in Virginia. My clients are so special that they find themselves a friend for a lifetime, not just another wedding vendor. I take time to know you! I love learning about your love story, the proposal, etc. I am hopeless romantic, so I will probably shed a tear at every wedding I attend or photograph.

Jessica is AMAZING, we hired her for our wedding and also did the engagement pictures with her. I am brazilian and since she is also I thought maybe my now husband would be a little uncomfortable taking the pictures but no way, not with Jessica, the way she makes everything seems so smooth and simple makes you think you are spending a good afternoon with a friend! And her work is definitely THE BEST! On my wedding day she managed to speak both languages with my family and my guests and took so much amazing pictures that now is hard to choose! Everyone loved her job and she sent the pictures so fast that I was really impressed! From now one my dates for events with pictures will depend on her agenda. I can’t wait for the next sessions of her capturing our love!
