Hi, I’m Sabrina— a Virginia and East Coast–based photographer capturing weddings and life’s moments with a true-to-life, candid approach. I focus on the people in the moments, your grandparent's reaction to you kiss, the way your groom sees you walking down the aisle, all those cute details you planned for your special day; your story is preserved exactly as it happened. Every wedding is unique, which is why I offer à la carte packages, designed to fit your vision and celebrate your love in a way that feels personal and authentic.

Sabrina is my absolute favorite! Her pictures are gorgeous I couldn’t have asked for anything better! She is the kindest person ever! She is so responsive and easy to work with! She got our pictures back to us so quickly! It was so fun having her there at our wedding, she helped everything run smoothly and is so incredibly talented! I can’t recommend her enough!

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
Isaac did a wonderful job photographing our backyard wedding. He did a brilliant job capturing my visions as well as brought ideas of his own. We are very grateful we were able to book Isaac for our wedding, he truly immortalized the day and we have so many beautiful photos to reflect on for the rest of our lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the first moment I met them, I knew I was in good hands. They listened to everything I asked and made sure nothing was missed. The photos of me with my dad before the ceremony are my favorite, they mean so much. The video feels like an actual movie but still so real. They got the vows, the kiss, the laughter during speeches, all of it. The way they played with natural light made everything glow. I was worried about being awkward in photos but they made me feel like a princess. Everyone keeps telling me how amazing our pictures look. I can’t even pick a favorite because I love every single one. Honestly, this is the best decision I made for the wedding.

My husband and I booked Candy right on our first call with her. She was so warm and charismatic, and my husband really connected with her background in the legal field—being an attorney himself, it gave him so much peace of mind knowing she’s detail-oriented and a great communicator. Working with Candy was an incredible experience from start to finish. We weren’t just looking for someone to take pretty photos—we wanted someone who would make the process easier, bring a calm presence, and still have an editorial eye for beautiful images. Candy delivered on all of that and more. She went above and beyond to make sure everything felt seamless and elevated.

I’m AnaGabriele (Ana), and the owner of Unearthed Photographical! My partner and I have been photographing weddings since 2016, when two upcoming brides I’d gone to high school with, saw that I was still taking photos and asked me to photograph their big days! Those two events made me realize how much I absolutely love wedding photography. Since then, we’ve honed in on our craft, learning how to make the process as smooth as possible for all of our clients. We love riding out on the Harley, crafting, and hanging out with our toddlers.

Unearthed Photographical were the best communicators throughout our entire wedding planning process. From our initial consultation to the day of, they were incredibly responsive, attentive, and helpful in guiding us on how to get the most out of our photography coverage. The quality of their work was fabulous - they captured moments and angles I didn't even realize I wanted documented, and the final photos came out absolutely gorgeous. I will definitely be using Unearthed Photographical for all of my future photography needs and highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer experience.

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.

Marylyn captured our vision with pure grace and sass all at the same time. She knew exactly what I was going for vibe and vision wise, we discussed. We can't wait to make our photo wall with out wedding photos at our new home.

Payton was a hidden gem that I found through an intense Instagram/Facebook search for a wedding photographer. I was starting to get discouraged with the outrageous pricing of some of the big name photographers in the Birmingham, AL area and disappointed with the gallery examples of some of the cheaper options. When she messaged me back, her rates are so reasonable and affordable and her Instagram really shows how vibrant and dreamy her previous galleries have turned out. I felt like I could really trust her with capturing our special memories, I was right. Prior to the wedding, she sent out a questionnaire asking about our photography priorities and mindset. Also recently she started including an engagement session when you book her for a wedding package!! A steal! We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience with a Payton. She also is a traveling queen, so if you’re not in Birmingham, AL, don’t be discouraged!

I’m LINDSAY, the owner & main photographer of Lindsay Mack Photography. I am based out of Warrenton, Virginia. And I am bit of a sucker for real, authentic, passionate love. When I shoot your wedding, I want you to remember each moment, vividly. I want you to relive that first moment when your Dad saw you in your dress. I want you to feel the moment when the love of your life laid his eyes on you as you were approaching the aisle. The moment when the groomsman does a split on the dance floor? Yes, that too. ALL OF IT. I am here to serve you, to work along side you and to capture those once in a life time feels.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Lindsay was the best vendor decision we made for our wedding! From our first conversation, my husband and I both felt so at ease around her. We were adamant about hiring a photographer who we *wanted* to be around all day and Lindsay was the perfect fit! We had a blast taking engagement pictures - she flawlessly executed all my creative ideas - and were blown away when we got them back (in truly record time!) Our wedding pictures were a breeze thanks to Lindsay (and her husband/second shooter, Justin) -even when rain derailed a our post-ceremony picture plans. She's 100% the person every bride should have in their corner on their wedding day. Lindsay is patient, generous, flexible, and SO FUN to be around! You know you hired the right photographer when 1) your wedding party loves them too and 2) they become one of the highlights of your day. She even got a few timid flower girls and ring bearers to warm up to the camera. Not only are Lindsay and Justin a JOY to have on your side, they turned around our sneak peek in under 24-hours! They perfectly captured the emotion, fun, and details of our wedding. We love going back through our pictures to reminisce and always struggle to pick a favorite. Truly cannot recommend hiring Lindsay enough!
