As a wife and recent Bride, I constantly look back at my wedding day gallery from my photographer. I would say at least once every couple of months! What I love about my wedding photos is that I can remember the day just by looking at those photos. I want that for YOU!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our experience with Ashlyn and Sea and Shea was amazing from start to finish! Ashlyn from the booking process through delivery of our edited wedding photos has been a joy to work with. Our time has been so great with Ashlyn and her fun and bubbly personality really keeps the long days of photos light and carefree. We were kind of against doing engagement photos but after a couple of hours running around downtown Charleston and really getting to know her and feel more comfortable in front of the camera it did help tremendously on wedding day. Also, our engagement photos turned out AMAZING! Day of wedding, Ashlyn and her team were professional and on top of it. She got all the shots I wanted and more and our end result photos could not have turned out more perfect :) we are still in awe at the results. Not only do you get an amazing photographer and great photos but she is reasonably priced as well, perfect combination! 10/10 recommend! Now our problem is we found over 500 photos to get printed and put around our house, which is a little excessive but they are all so good we can't decide.

My passion resides in the art of crafting imagery that breathes life into your story and serves as a heartfelt testimony to the depth and beauty of your love. Inspired by the non-traditional and intentional romantics scattered across the globe, my work is for the madly in love couples who dare to embrace their individuality and create extraordinary memories together. From stolen glances to shared smiles, I thrive on preserving those authentic moments that make your heart skip a beat. My ultimate goal for our time together is to create imagery that serves as a window into your unique story and the legacy of your love!

We could not have made a better choice for our wedding photographer than Fern and Flower Photography! My husband and I can both be a bit camera shy, but Brianna made us feel so comfortable and at ease. It was just like having another friend at our wedding, but one who just so happens to take quite literally the best photos we’ve ever gotten. We are so grateful, and will cherish these pictures forever!

Hey There! I’m Hannah - an Intimate Wedding Photographer originally from the coast of Virginia but stumbled my way to the North Georgia Mountains which I now proudly call home! I love finding new adventures while exploring new places! I started my Photography journey capturing families but soon realized that my heart was completely drawn to capturing love & the bond that two people share! I describe my photography style as more Photojournalistic while being heavily focused on capturing more intimate/Romantic & candid shots! I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions between two people on their wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
I knew as soon as I talked to Hannah on the phone to inquire about working with her to photograph our wedding that she was going to be AMAZING. She is so kind and bubbly and I just felt so comfortable trusting her to capture our special day. She clearly lays out how everything will work such as timelines and payments, and she was SO quick to respond whenever we had any questions! We had our engagement shoot and our wedding photos taken by her and both times we were just wowed by her skills!! My husband and I are usually extremely awkward in front of the camera, but Hannah was brilliant at posing us so that we were comfortable and not stiff, and even took really great candid photos! Our wedding day went by in such a blur, it was so hard to really remember each detail of the day because it all went by so fast, but after getting our pictures back, I felt like I was getting married again! Every time I look at our photos I tear up because they are just so precious and I'm so happy that I can look back on these photos for the rest of our lives. I would recommend Hannah to everyone and I would not hesitate to work with her again in the future if we had the chance!!! Thank you Hannah!!! :)

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Now And Forever Photography

Our work involves a lot of interaction between you and your partner: the way you smile, hug, laugh and goof off together. We use natural light to create artistically genuine moments. Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time. Our ultimate goal is to be a companion with you throughout your wedding planning process as a friend, not a vendor. We're not someone who simply ‘gets the job done’— We're with you every single step of the way, from the first time we talk until your images are delivered.

Now And Forever Photography was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Alicia, the lead photographer, was easy to communicate with, messaging and calling to finalize all the details for both our engagement session and wedding day. Her eye for detail, use of natural lighting, and creative approach really brought to life the ideas I had envisioned. When we hit a hiccup with the engagement session location closing early, Alicia was extremely understanding and helped us seamlessly reroute to capture beautiful photos. I highly recommend Now And Forever Photography and will definitely keep them in mind for any future photography needs.

King is seriously a dream to work with! From the first time we talked, we just knew they were the right choice. He’s so down-to-earth and made us feel totally at ease, which was huge because neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera. He helped us with posing when we needed it (thank you for making us look like we knew what we were doing!), but also just let us be ourselves, which resulted in the most natural, beautiful photos. He totally captured the vibe of our day, especially the reception. The energy, the laughter, the dancing—everything was perfectly documented. We couldn’t have asked for better photos that really tell the story of our celebration. We’re beyond happy with how everything turned out!

Being behind the camera isn’t just about clicking a button and editing a photo and delivering it. It’s about making sure you capture each and every detail even if the couple doesn’t realize it. I’ve become passionate in what I do because I love the smiles that it puts on people’s faces and the happy tears that stream down their face when I deliver the most beautiful album that they get to hold on to for the rest of their lives. True love is real. Capturing my couples is like bringing a romance novel to life.

I will never stop singing the praises of Marylyn, the owner of Momentous Memories Photography, because she truly saved my wedding day! My original photographer cancelled an hour and a half before they were supposed to show up, and I was in full panic mode. Marylyn stepped in without hesitation and was at my side before I even had time to process what was happening. From the moment she arrived, she brought this calm, reassuring presence that instantly grounded me - exactly the energy I needed in the middle of the chaos. Not only was Marilyn incredibly professional, but she captured the most beautiful photos. I am still amazed by how she managed to step into a last-minute situation and deliver images that look like she had been part of the plan all along. I am endlessly grateful for Momentous Memories Photography! If you’re looking for someone who is talented, dependable, and truly kind-hearted, Marylyn is the one you want! She turned my near-disaster into something beautiful… and I cannot recommend her enough!

Hey there, I'm Josie, and over the past six incredible years, I've had the privilege of documenting countless beautiful moments, from heartfelt weddings to vibrant events. My goal is to create a visual narrative that speaks to the hearts of those who look at my work. I pour my heart and soul into every shot! So, whether it's an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, I'm here to craft images that reflect the true essence of the day. Let's turn your special day into an everlasting masterpiece.

We had Josie capture our destination wedding / elopement with family & friends in Turks & Caicos. Josie was such a wonderful photographer to have beside us on our wedding day. She captured every special moment and even had all of our photos returned back to us in a months time (& a very large quantity too)!! Our photos had us smiling and feeling like we relived the day all over again. Not only is she an amazing photographer but she has such a calming and peaceful personality to be around. She made the entire wedding day light and fun. Taking photos with her felt so natural and easy. If you are looking for a wedding photographer you will make the best decision choosing to have her by your side - especially for destination weddings! Josie is easy to communicate with and responds promptly to all questions which made the planning process smooth. She adapts to the style of photos you would like - whether more portraits or more candid (or a mix of both). Within a week following our wedding she had sent us a link to access a bunch of sneak peak photos. Reliable, personable, professional, kind, talented are just some words to describe Josie. You will be at peace choosing Josie as a photographer. Josie we are SO grateful and blessed to have had you capture our wedding day - we will cherish our photos for many years to come.
