Hey, I’m Reagan! I’m an Alabama-based wedding photographer who loves capturing real moments — laughter, happy tears, and all the little in-between moments that make your day uniquely yours. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me teaching 13-year-olds in Tuscaloosa or spending time with my three dogs and my Husband. My photography style is laid-back, natural, and all about storytelling. I guide you when you need it, but mostly I’m there to capture your day as it really happens. Whether your wedding is intimate or grand, my goal is to give you photos that let you relive every memory for years to come.

Reagan is hands down the best photographer, and one of the best choices I’ve made while wedding planning! She’s creative, so fun & friendly, and makes things so easy and comfortable no matter WHAT condition! Can’t wait to see her magic on wedding day when this was only a quick, rained out engagement session!

  • Serves Coaling, AL

I'm an engineer-turned-wedding photographer who never planned to leave my career, but found myself more drawn to documenting life's meaningful moments than climbing the corporate ladder. When you work with me, you're not just hiring a photographer, you're bringing in someone who genuinely cares about you and your story.

From our first conversation with Mary H Media, we knew we had found the right photographer. She was clear about what to expect, kind in every interaction, and genuinely excited about capturing our wedding day. Mary didn't just take beautiful photos—she created a positive energy that made everyone feel comfortable and happy. Her planning was thoughtful, and when things needed to adjust on the day of our wedding, she handled it smoothly so we got all the shots we wanted. The final images are perfect and show exactly why we fell in love with her work. We can't recommend Mary enough!!

Their communication was quick and helpful from the very beginning - they were always available to answer any questions I had.

I met Edgar, the owner of Anchor Studios several years ago when we both lived in Houston, TX. We met because I had just finished my degree and was looking for a photographer - he actually took my graduation photos! When it finally came time to book our wedding photography, I knew I wanted to go with him - no questions. His communication style is open and easy. He is responsive to all questions and requests which made the planning process a breeze. The quality of his work is truly top-notch, with beautifully curated photos that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. He is incredibly accommodating and guided us through every step of the way. He didn't hesitate when I even asked him to travel out to California for the wedding. It was awesome to have someone who is like an old friend and has seen us grow over the years capture our special day. Edgar, Anchor Studios Photography, was the perfect addition to our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with the memories they've preserved for us.

I capture connection in its truest form — the joy-filled, imperfect, beautiful moments that make your story yours, and memories you’ll carry for a lifetime.

Asimpledreamerco was an absolute joy to work with for our proposal photography. From the very first message, their communication was easy, quick, and personable - they felt like friends rather than just vendors. On the day of the proposal, they were fully prepared with a ton of creative photo ideas, and their work was crisp and high-quality. They even helped my fiancé plan a surprise proposal for me, complete with flowers and champagne! I was completely shocked but they captured the moment perfectly. Asimpledreamerco went above and beyond to make our proposal day special, and we are thrilled with the beautiful photos they delivered so quickly. We couldn't have asked for a better photography experience.

Her communication was amazing, she answered all of my questions quickly. She made us feel very comfortable! Working with her and her fiance felt like we had all been friends already, we just clicked (haha). Side note: we got to help out two poor little stray kittens with them, so animal lovers always a plus in my book! I am madly in LOVE with the photos she took, they are absolutely perfect!!!! She was able to capture our dream come true and so much more!!! They are so beautiful!!! She was even able to finish the editing earlier then planned. I already talked it over with my husband, and we plan on hiring her again in the future! A five star rating does not do her justice, she was hands down the best!!!

I truly don’t have enough words to say how grateful I am. Looking at the photos and watching our video felt like reliving our entire wedding all over again, but calmer and with more happy tears. They captured every hug, every laugh, even the nervous looks before I walked down the aisle. What I loved most is that nothing felt too staged, it was all very real. My parents said they hadn’t seen me smile like that in years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I knew I wanted great wedding photos, but I never thought they’d turn out THIS incredible. From the first meeting, they were kind and understanding of what I wanted. On the wedding day, they were everywhere but also somehow invisible, catching everything without ever being in the way. I loved how they guided us through poses when needed but also let us just be natural. The results are so stunning, it feels like they took our love and froze it into each photo. The video had me bawling, seriously, because it wasn’t just highlights, it was the feeling of the entire day wrapped into one. I keep watching it and noticing little things, like the way my grandma was smiling during our dance or my niece giggling in the background. Those are things I would’ve missed forever if not for them. The editing is top-notch, the colors are beautiful, and it feels timeless. I honestly can’t say enough good things, they gave us treasures we will hold onto forever.

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.

With a balance of documentary storytelling and refined editorial direction, your moments are preserved as they naturally unfold while also being thoughtfully guided when needed. The result is a collection of images that feel effortless, emotive, deeply personal, and artful.

What impressed us most was their perfectly creative approach. Instead of just stiff, 'look at the camera and smile' shots, they captured the real essence of our family. They were patient with us and found unique ways to frame our interactions. The final gallery is stunning and feels so much more personal than a standard portrait session. If you want a photographer who is reliable, great with families, and has a truly creative eye, we can’t recommend them enough!"

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!
