Choosing JMSmith Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Jennifer was amazing to work with, not just because of her incredible talent, but because she is a great person who simply loves what she does. From our first meeting, Jennifer's communication was both professional and approachable. We never felt like just another wedding on her schedule. She took the time to get to know us—our quirks, our inside jokes, and all the little things that make us unique. The photos are absolutely stunning! They’re creative, full of emotion, and capture every detail beautifully. She stuck to our timeline perfectly while still being playful and flexible (thanks for filming our silly TikTok request!). The final photos are amazing AND the feeling of comfort she brought to our special day is truly what sets JMSmith Photography apart.

When I shoot photography, it’s not about composing the perfect pictures or getting a great shot. Yes, those things are essential. But, to me, photography is so much more. It’s about capturing a moment in time that you will forever be able to look back on and feel something magical.

Emily was such a pleasure to have be a part of our day! She was very professional through the entire process and made sure she knew exactly what we were looking for and expecting. We received a few teasers within 24 hours after the wedding that we could share with friends and family and received the entire package in a very timely manner! All of the ceremony shots were so intimate, the traditional shots turned out perfect and all of our couple shots were so elegant and very creative! Emily did a great job taking our vision and making it come to life! We will be showing off our wedding photos the rest of our lives and we are so glad we put our trust in Emily to make them everything we dreamed!

Steph and Stef Photo & Video 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Charlotte, NC
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,950

We are 2 experienced photographers that have joined forces after a decade in the wedding industry as a full-service photo video team. We are here to tell your story in a way that truly captures your uniqueness. Our focus is to provide you with professionalism, confidence, a joyful and unforgettable day-of experience and above all photos and video that you can look back on and re-live the emotions from your wedding day.

Steph and Stef Photography has been out go-to for our large corporate events for years. We have multiple events every year that range from 30 people to 800 people, and I love that I feel confident reaching out to this partner for so many different events. We rely on them for both indoor and outdoor events, and their images always turn out so well. Their communication style is friendly, flexible, and casual. It's easy to reach out to them, make requests, talk through specific needs, and get their input on what works well for our event/venue/lighting/etc. Their photos always exceed expectations with dynamic, fun images capture the feeling of the event. I'd like to share a recent experience with Stefanie Haviv at our 250 person company Christmas party. The event, a formal event at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, NC, had a special focus to celebrate our company's founder's retirement. The event was structured similarly to a wedding with sections of planned speaking and unstructured mingling time. We had very specific things we needed captured for the structured activity, but we had fewer instructions for the free-form periods. Stefanie nailed the specific images we wanted and recorded these key moments so well. Her talent was most evident, however, in her candid photography. We weren't sure exactly what we wanted image-wise for the unstructured portions of the evening. Stefanie took it upon herself to find the most touching, personal, lively moments of the event to tell the party's story. Her work is dynamic and adaptable, and she was able to use the space's lighting and the crowd's energy to create images we loved. We are looking forward to the next opportunity to work with Steph and Stef!

Hello! I’m Sharon and I own Sharon Elisabeth Photography. I feel so grateful every day that I get to capture the most heartfelt moments and feelings that occur during weddings as well as documenting the relationships between people who love each other so much – families, friends and couples! I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

Due to an influx of faux leads, I only reply to WEBSITE INQUIRIES 💻 Found me on Zola? 💍 Mention it when you reach out! I’m Rae—your luxury, film-inspired wedding photographer. Most of my couples invest $2000–$6000 for an elegant Photo + Video experience that feels as elevated as it is emotional.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rae and Chynjah have such great positive energy and attitude, and made the shoot feel like a breeze. We got great shots even though the weather was not in our favor and she was very creative with the angles. She even incorporated objects and motion in many of the shots. They are both very genuine and great at bringing out the positive energy but of people. All in all, 10/10 would definitely recommend for bridal, maternity, or event photos. For Chris and his previous modeling experience, this was by far the least tedious, most energetic, and easiest shoot that he's been apart of. Rae's communication and creativity were great. She is incredible at thinking outside of the box and coming up with great ideas on the fly. She also communicated great before and after the shoot as there were some minor challenges with scheduling. Her turn around time is also incredibly efficient and can edit very quickly. We are so excited to have had her capture this precious moment for us that we will cherish forever. Thank you, Rae!
