Thank you for visiting our profile! I'm Mel (Lead Photographer) and my spicy latin queen, wife and BFF, Alegna is the second shooter. We are passionate about making our couples feel at ease in front of the camera so they can fully be present in the moment, while we capture authentic images true to you and your love story. Our motto is, "Love the moment. Live it forever."

Awarded Best of Zola
I was fortunate to find Enamored for my wedding. In the limited time I had, Alegna kept me on target to get everything done. It’s obvious she’s done a lot of weddings. I don’t think anyone else could help me pull off a beautiful wedding in less than a month. The pictures taken by Mel are simply marvelous. He has an easy going demeanor that made us comfortable when taking pictures and he’s always thinking about the next shot which made the photo sessions quick but thorough. The whole family was instrumental in the wedding being stress free and wonderful. I can’t imagine what they could do with more planning time!

  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

Raleigh and Winston-Salem based wedding photographer specializing in providing its couples with true to life, colorful imagery that is reminiscent of film photography. with timeless posing and color that will last a lifetime. David is down to earth, chill, and is easy to work with. David also specializes in family photos, spring and fall mini sessions, engagements, bridals, and branding.

We truly can’t say enough good things about our wedding photographer! As out-of-town clients, planning a wedding from afar came with its challenges, but he went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth and stress-free. From our very first conversation, he made us feel seen, heard, and completely at ease. On the day of our engagement shoot, he instantly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is no small feat!)—he has such a calm, kind presence that brought out the best in us. The photos turned out absolutely stunning—natural, timeless, and full of emotion. You can tell he puts his heart into every shot. When our wedding had to be rescheduled and he was no longer available on the new date, he didn’t just leave us hanging—he found us the perfect replacement, someone who matched his style and vibe flawlessly. That level of care and dedication is rare, and we are beyond grateful for it. He is truly the best and the kindest, and anyone would be lucky to have him capture their big day.

Hey! I'm Rae, and I've been photographing weddings for 15+ years (500 wedding days!) This just means I have the experience and credibility to be reliable and create beautiful results, no matter what. I love weddings because I love documenting relationships. Those special people are the most important parts of our lives. I love photographing anything that involves couples, and also making people feel like STUNNERS. Engagements, maternity, senior portraits, models = *heart eyes* I believe that life should be remembered as beautifully as it felt when it happened.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the pleasure of working with Rae Marshall for our February 2026 wedding. Her portfolio and professionalism during our initial consultation immediately gave us the confidence that she would be the absolute best at capturing our day. Rae captured every moment — from first look, to the ceremony, to bridal party photos, to reception action shots, and every small detail in between — without ever feeling intrusive. Never having spent much time in front of the camera, we felt so comfortable following Rae’s lead. She made posing feel natural and easy, and we are absolutely thrilled with the preview collection shared with us just three days post-wedding — the photos are STUNNING. Timeless, classic, and elegant time capsules are what you’ll come away with in a partnership with Rae. We can hardly wait to see the rest!

Hi, I'm Coby! I am so excited you are here! It is a privilege to be invited to some of the most pivotal and beautiful moments in people's lives. My couples choose me to preserve true, honest memories of their newly forming family tree. They trust me to truly see these connections and document them with professionalism and artistic ability so that they come away with photos that are treasured for the rest of their lives.

Not only did she provide high-quality and professional work, she is also a wonderful person to spend time with! She felt more like a friend than our photographer!”

  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

I used to be a divorce attorney, I had brain surgery, and now I'm a wedding photographer. Yes, you read that right. But there's obviously more to the story. Before going to law school I went to school for photojournalism and even worked for newspapers. After brain surgery turned my life upside down, I realized I wanted to go back to my roots as a photojournalist and I wanted to capture truly joyful, enthusiastic moments and voila - I fell in love with weddings and photographing them.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so glad we hired Kivus to shoot our wedding!! Elyssa & John were amazing to work with and did a phenomenal job. Elyssa is so creative and has an amazing eye for capturing the beauty in candid, spontaneous moments. Our photos are filled with laughter, dancing, tears (of happiness!) and pure joy. Plus, she was flexible and incredibly easy to work with ahead of time. It was such a relief on the day of our wedding knowing we were in good hands with Elyssa. We would 100% recommend hiring Kivus & Camera for your wedding! Thank you so much, Elyssa!!!

Tuuba Tuncer Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

I’m Tuuba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have 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.

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!

I’m Kate — Ukrainian-born, Carolina-based, and the kind of photographer who will fix your veil, tell you exactly what to do with your hands, cry behind my camera during your dad’s speech, and somehow still notice your grandma tearing up across the room. I’ve been photographing people since 2018, and I’ve learned that the best wedding photos rarely come from trying to create a “perfect” wedding day. They come from actually having a really good one. I love incredible dresses, gorgeous light, old architecture, 35mm film, and portraits that could live in a magazine — but I love the champagne-popping, hair-coming-undone, friends-losing-it-on-the-dance-floor moments just as much.

Pelican Perch Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with Seth, we were impressed by his prompt, professional, and friendly communication style. The quality of his work is truly excellent - his unique, professional approach captured all the special moments of our day. Seth was very inclusive of everyone who attended, but never obtrusive. He did a fantastic job taking both formal and candid photos of the bride and groom, as well as our guests. Seth took a tremendous number of photos and turned them around to us within just a few days. It was a pleasure having him there, and he even managed to capture a comet in the background of one of our photos - it was magical! We highly recommend Pelican Perch Photography for any couple looking for exceptional wedding photography.

Emma is exceptional at what her portfolio shows. If you want candid photos that represent how your wedding felt, book Emma! We didn’t even know she was there half the time and then you get the sneaks back and it’s because she was doing the work to get the shot! She is very efficient with time and uses your strengths. she just let us be us and happened to get some iconic snaps of it. If you’re looking for a posed vogue cover moment, probably not the right fit. Emma’s craft is natural and feels as if a good friend or family member was capturing the moment in a more HQ way. The photos are authentic, they will show your love, laughter, fun and all the emotions. If you want to be transported back to your wedding day when you look at photos, Emma is your girl.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

We had a great experience with Amative Creative for our wedding! One thing that really made them stand out was that they offer so many different editing styles to choose from, so we were able to pick exactly the look we wanted. They also got our photos back to us super quickly—about a week after the wedding—which was such a nice surprise. The photos turned out beautiful and they captured all the big moments and some great candid shots. I especially love how cool the dance floor shots turned out. We received tons of compliments on the pictures! Highly recommend!

Where do I start? Casie’s all around professionalism and talent make her stand out in the large crowd of wedding photographers. I hired Casie nearly a year before my wedding and she was able to answer any questions I had during that time. She was also such great company on my wedding day - never taking up “too much space”, while also being there whenever I needed assistance. She made ALL of my specific visions come true while simultaneously providing some incredibly unique surprise shots in my gallery as well. I cannot recommend Casie enough!!!!
