Christian McDaniel Photography 
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Charleston, WV

I fell in love with photography when I was in high school. After my son was born, I wanted to not only capture photos of him, but of others. My son is now 4 years old, and we have a golden retriever named, Jack. My husband serves in the Air Force, and we currently live in West Virginia. I've been a flight attendant for the last six 1/2 years & I love it! Photography for me has been my creative outlet where I get to capture your moments, and hopefully make you laugh during our session. My goal as a photographer is to make you feel confident and seen in front of the camera no matter what comfortability level you have in front of the camera.

Hey there, I’m Holly! I’m a wedding and engagement photographer based in Roanoke, VA, and I’m all about capturing love stories in the most authentic and heartfelt way possible. My photography style is raw, emotional, timeless, and fun. Whether I’m photographing a tender moment between a couple or the spontaneous laughter during a celebration, I strive to capture the genuine connection and joy shared on your big day. There’s nothing more rewarding for me than freezing those fleeting moments so you can relive them for years to come. If you’re looking for a documentary photographer who can capture your day as it unfolds, I’d love to chat!!

Holly was immediately responsive & answered all our questions in detail. She was incredible at our engagement shoot & had even looked up several nearby parks to choose from, & looked at great locations within the 1 we chose to shoot our engagement photos. I was able to change outfits & my fiance/now husband & I felt totally comfortable despite it being our 1st time having professional photography focused on us with her down to earth & direct communication style. Our photos turned out gorgeous & classic. On our wedding day, we had a lot of unexpected things happen like wind & rain at our outdoor ceremony & photography session, but she handled it all with grace & got our photos done beautifully & timely with our wedding party & immediate family as we wanted. We did some outdoor portrait photos & got some adorable ones inside our bridal suite. It was relieving to see her there every step of our 8 hours we hired her for, including our pivotal dances, cake cutting, dancing, etc. She even went above & beyond her job by stepping in several times in several ways when our coordinator was completely forgetful & careless. She communicated with my Mom who was very high strung & quick tempered beautifully. My husband & I literally cannot thank her enough for how beautifully & peacefully she took care of our photos & us on our our wedding. Would recommend her 10x over.

Hi! Im Courtney and im so glad you decided to give me a look! Here's a little bit about me! I am a full time mommy of 5 beautiful children. I am married to an amazing man, Dwight. He is very supportive in everything i do including my business and strives to help me in anyway he can. Many of you may see him accompanying me to your session, wedding or event. Our house is cluttered and chaotic 99.9% of the time but is filled with lots of love and laughs from our little family and i thank god everyday for letting me be their mama and wife.

I could not have picked a better photographer for my wedding! She is super sweet and easy to get along with, communicates efficiently, takes the best pictures, and her editing time is so quick! She got our wedding gallery back to us within a week! Would definitely hire her again for future photography needs. Thank you, Courtney, for capturing our day and making it look like a fairy tale!!

You deserve wedding photos and films that feel natural, joyful, and completely like you. The real laughs. The quiet hand squeezes. The moments you will want to relive for years. We’re Hannah and Matt, a husband and wife photography and film team based in North Carolina and traveling nationwide. Our approach is true to life and relaxed, focused on helping you feel comfortable so nothing feels forced or awkward. From the first email to the final gallery, we keep things easy, clear, and genuinely fun so you can soak it all in.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a fantastic time working with Hannah and Matt for photography and videography at our wedding. They were very professional and were very good about keeping up with timelines and getting things moving. Having a large wedding party (25), we were worried about how we were going to make everyone fit well in the photos, but they did a great job capturing multiple angles of everyone. We just got our sneak peeks back and they are amazing. Before the wedding we were able to communicate with them what we wanted in terms of types of shots, day of timeline, and feel of the video. With how chaotic the day felt, working with Hannah and Matt on our couples shots made us feel more connected. Honestly, the best money we spent on our wedding.

Who's that girl...? It's Jes (Your wedding photographer)! I'm a wedding photographer based in West Virginia but originally from Idaho. I'm a military spouse, a mom of two and photography has been part of my heart since high school.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we booked with Jes, she has been absolutely incredible. My fiancé and I recently had our engagement session with her, and I truly cannot say enough good things about the experience. She made us feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident in front of the camera, which is no small feat because I am usually very self-conscious when having my picture taken. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she is also kind, patient, and so easy to work with. She gave great direction while still allowing us to be ourselves, and the result was a gallery that completely exceeded our expectations. Every photo feels authentic and captures our relationship so beautifully. When I received our engagement photos, I was honestly blown away. For the first time, I looked at photos of myself and felt beautiful. Jes has a gift for making people feel seen and confident, and that shines through in her work. We have received countless compliments on our photos and are so excited to have her capture our wedding day as well. If you’re looking for a photographer who is talented, professional, creative, and genuinely cares about her clients, look no further. Booking with Jes was one of the best decisions we’ve made during our wedding planning process.

Hi, I'm Treiva.. The owner and lead photographer of Sugar N Spice Photography located out of Central Ohio. Photography has been my passion since I was 15 years old. I can remember getting my hands on my first camera and knowing this is what I wanted to do forever. For me, I love the feeling I get when I know I captured that special moment for you and your family... knowing it will last forever.

Sugar N Spice Photography was exceptional from start to finish. They communicated exceptionally well throughout the entire process, always keeping us informed and addressing any questions or concerns we had. The quality of their work was incredibly professional, and their pricing was very reasonable for the level of service they provided. They went above and beyond on our wedding day - not only did the photographer meet with us beforehand to help plan out our timeline and photography wishes, but she also brought an emergency kit with her that came in handy when a few unexpected issues came up. When some last-minute delays occurred, she helped keep us calm and on track. We were so impressed by her attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile. We would recommend Sugar N Spice Photography to any couple looking for a fantastic wedding photography experience!

We cover weddings across VA, DC, and MD. We've had the privilege to capture the wedding day of over 150 couples - and we've loved every second of it!

Reflections Media Virginia was our wedding videographer, and overall they provided a good experience. The videographer paid close attention to capturing all the fine details throughout our special day. The video was great. However, the quality of our photographs was just okay - it didn't blow us away. Additionally, our original photographer backed out the day before the wedding, but Reflections Media was able to quickly replace them with someone else, which we appreciated. They also had a fast turnaround on receiving the photos/video within 30 days. They also gave us 8-10 photos the day after the wedding which was so very nice. They were priced very reasonably in comparison to other companies. I don’t have any regrets especially with the price we paid.

Our hearts (and lens) love to cover sessions with newlyweds, whether its your wedding, proposal, or future life events that you two may have together.

We chose Texas Fresh Photography and couldn't have been happier with our decision. From our first conversation, they stayed in constant touch—checking in on our needs and making sure we felt supported every step of the way. They went above and beyond by meeting with us a few days before the wedding, photographing our rehearsal dinner, and guiding us through the entire process. We also appreciated that they respected our privacy and kept our photos in a private portfolio instead of posting them everywhere like most photographers do. The sneak peek arrived the same night of our wedding, which honestly blew our minds. For the quality of their work, their pricing is unbeatable, and we'd recommend Michael and Rylie to anyone looking for top-notch photographers who truly care about their couples. In addition to that, Rylie also helped take care of a situation that our wedding planner missed, which was a game changer for us. Thank you guys again, it truly means the world to Noah and I, that you guys cared for our special day just as much as we do.

  • Serves Charleston, WV

Photographs always made me curious. The stories behind the photo often sparked ideas for my book writing. Being a 90's baby I grew up using Kodak film, my moms point-and-shoot, and polaroid. My love of this art grew and I bought my first Canon when my oldest was 3. For awhile I captured our family growing, memories, a few newborns here and there, and brand content. In 2020, I began capturing life through the lens for others. It brought beauty back to my heart, and independence to my life as a mom. When I shot my first wedding I became absolutely hooked and knew I wanted to capture more of those memories for your future generations to cherish.

Honey Ridge & Lace Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the moment we met Mel, we knew we were in good hands. Her authentic and kind communication style immediately put us at ease, and she was a great listener, really understanding what we wanted from our wedding photos. The quality of their work is truly unique, timeless, and beautiful. Mel made me feel so relaxed and beautiful on our wedding day, and she brought our vision to life perfectly. She's such a creative and genuinely nice person - I can't imagine working with a nicer photographer. I cannot recommend Honey Ridge & Lace Photography more highly!

Erica is such a delight to have on your biggest day, and I can honestly say, the one who calmed my nerves when she arrived. She could sense their was anxiety regarding scheduling/falling behind, but she made the entire room laugh and relieved much of the pressure from my shoulders. Many of our guests complimented her during the wedding, and complimented her professionalism as well as her care free personality. She made taking pictures a breeze and even assisted on contacting the correct venue personnel when our venue's plumbing faltered. She has been a blessing to work with the past year, and I prayed to meet for someone like Erica on our wedding day. I read most of the reviews for Whimsy Nirvana and it hurts me to see such negativity inflicting on someone who is only human and balancing so much. In a world like today, I would work with such a genuine soul such as Erica again if it meant experiencing the professionalism, generosity, and compassion that Erica gives EACH and EVERY client of hers.
