“Our photographer really took the time to connect with us, and we found that we shared a lot of common interests! She made us feel very comfortable, and completely followed our desires for candid and more relaxed photos. She was amazing at posing and directing us, as well as going with the flow and capturing what was happening in the moment. We couldn’t be more happy! We love all of the photos taken outside- our couples, wedding party, and golden hour photos feel so genuine and organic and I think that’s what our photographer really excelled in. Our golden hour photos specifically are very romantic and magical- definitely our favorites! I cannot give enough praise to the level of communication given during the planning process. Wedding planning is hard and it gets tricky to keep track of everything. From Darcy at the start getting us booked to Hannah throughout the planning process, I was so grateful for the texts and emails keeping me updated and on track. I am very grateful to have found OLAS, and have already recommended them to my friends getting married next year.”

Jeremy and Jennifer are a husband and wife team! With 3:17 Photography you get two photographers to capture your day!! What is better than two people in love capturing your once in a lifetime moments? Your wedding means so much to us and we want to make your day perfect from beginning to end!!! When we started our company we promised that we would always charge what we could of afforded when we got married. We feel as though so many couples are being taken advantage of by other companies.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jennifer and Jeremy are truly the most incredible people you could have by your side on your wedding day. From the very first moment, they made us feel completely at ease, and it quickly became clear that they were so much more than photographers — they were our guides, our support system, and our calm in the chaos. Honestly, without them, so much could have gone differently; they were absolutely priceless and worth every single penny. Their professionalism, kindness, and preparedness are unmatched. From planning to execution, they thought of everything — big and small — and made sure we never had to worry about a thing. On the day itself, I watched them quietly put out fires, organize people, and ensure we had everything we needed — all while capturing the most breathtaking, emotional, and timeless photographs. Every single picture tells a story, and every story is more beautiful than we could have imagined. What really sets Jennifer and Jeremy apart is how deeply they care. We trusted them completely, and that trust was met with nothing but care, attention, and joy. Our family relied on them throughout the day more than anyone else, and they were always there with a steady hand, a kind smile, and an eye for the moments we didn’t even notice. Even with a huge team of vendors around us, they were the ones who made everything feel effortless and truly magical. Hiring Jennifer and Jeremy wasn’t just about photography — it was about having people we could trust completely to capture and protect our memories, to make the day feel seamless, and to give us photos that we will treasure forever. They are extraordinary, both as artists and as human beings, and I cannot recommend them enough. If you’re considering them, do it — they will make your wedding day everything you dreamed of and more.

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price!

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our first experience with Allyse & Nick were at my sister's wedding. My husband and I knew at the time, they were our go-to when it came time for our wedding. Allyse and Nick made my notoriously unphotogenic husband loosen up and enjoy the process - he actually said he liked how he looked in the pictures for once! I don't think I have ever seen a picture of myself and felt beautiful, but her pictures truly do. I cant stop looking at them. I don't think I would have ever been able to capture the love that my husband & I have for each other on film without them. I can truly relive the fun and energy with all 1500 pictures I now have from that day! From our engagement photos to our big day they were amazing! They were willing to travel 3hours to come with us on this ride & even ran into a corn field to get the shot! They are going to be our family photographers, we're just waiting for the next sister to get moving!

Maria is INCREDIBLE, and we are so glad we chose her for our wedding photos. 1. She is super professional and prompt, but is also just a really cool person who did SO MUCH to calm our nerves leading up to the wedding. 2. Her photos are gorgeous. She has such good attention to detail, lighting, editing, and you can really really tell in the finished product. 3. She just takes photos of you whenever she is around, and got tons of great candids. 4. We had gorgeous sneak peeks within like 48 hours of the wedding - it was truly insane turnaround but was amazing for us to get hype and very quickly see high-quality photos of the day. 5. The system she uses to deliver your photos is great - we got a lot of compliments on it from our friends and family! 6. She goes above and beyond to make sure you get what you need - we filled out a survey a few weeks out listing our priorities, existing schedule, who needed to be in family photos, etc, and she sent back a really nice photo schedule document. It was fantastic to front-load this work and get it out of the way, and it made the day go so smoothly! 7. Overall she just really incredibly & beautifully captured the joy of the day - the personalities of my partner and I, our friends and family, the vibe of the venue and the party, and the sweetness of the sweet moments. We got tons of photos we will cherish forever and are so so thankful she was the one to capture the day!

Having never worked with a professional photographer before I was very nervous to find someone to capture our elopement. From the second I reached out to Elizabeth she was so sweet and accommodating. She assured me there was nothing to be nervous about! We weren’t sure where we wanted to go for our elopement ceremony, and she helped us brainstorm fun local locations. On the day of the ceremony she helped my husband pick the perfect spot overlooking the ocean. She made us feel so comfortable and really captured our personalities in the photos which was super important to us! We are obsessed with the photos and are so grateful to have worked with Elizabeth.

Brayley was so sweet, patient and experienced that our day and timeline couldn’t have gone any smoother! She was so fun and great to work with and we look forward to using her again in the future!

I'm Abby! and I’m hopelessly obsessed with love. There’s nothing like watching a couple look into each other’s eyes and realize they just got married. Being able to capture that moment- and then deliver it to the couple to keep forever- it’s truly the best. I’m here to capture so much more than just memories. I’m here to capture feeling. . The sweet glances that make your fingertips tingle. The look that makes your heart thump in your chest. The loopy butterflies in your stomach as you’re about to walk down the aisle. Those feelings. The photos I produce allow you to hold those feelings in your hand, and keep them safe for eternity.

Michael & I could not have been more pleased with Abby. From the very beginning she has been attentive & professional. Any concerns we had she addressed with us head on & effectively. Dont let this introvert full you, we had a 23 person Wedding Party & she lead them like a boss. The final edit was exactly what she advertised & what we wanted; she delivered 110%!!!! Abby will be our wedding photographer with all of our future family events & we are so happy we found her. Thank you Abby forever & always!!!!!

I've always held such a high priority on making memories that will last lifetime. This is one of the many reason I started a photography business. Just a little bit about me, I'm 24 years. Married to my high school sweetheart, Noah. We moved to Upstate, SC from our home state of sunny south Florida to start a life as newlyweds. If you are a lover of moody, intimate and timeless photography, let's connect. I would love to work together :)

Breana is so professional and knowledgeable! She took two people who were very camera shy and helped create some of the most stunning photos ever taken of either of us. She shot both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. Very communicative during the process, keeping me informed on when payments were due, when to expect sneak peeks and a full gallery, a very detailed questionnaire to understand our vision for the big day, etc. She and her husband are such kind, gentle souls, we were so happy to have them there! Photography was the area of wedding planning that was most important to me, and it was so worth it, she did a phenomenal job. Definitely will refer her to anyone who needs wedding photos in the GVL area and beyond!

If you are looking for a photographer who feels like a lifelong friend and a total professional all in one, look no further than Victoria. After searching Google and feeling discouraged by other photographers, we clicked on Victoria’s site and immediately felt her warmth. We eloped at the Jefferson Memorial in November 2025, and Victoria made the entire process stress-free. She was incredibly non-judgmental about our choice to elope and truly understood the intimate, private moment we wanted to create. On the day of, she was like a 'silent guest' capturing stunning, high-end shots without ever breaking the magic of our ceremony. The quality of the photos is out of this world; honestly, we felt like we got a steal given the level of professionalism and talent she provides! She even went above and beyond by giving us a ride back to our hotel. Victoria doesn’t just take photos; she builds relationships. Do yourself a favor and book her immediately!

From start to finish, JayDee and his team at Pluvia Studios were nothing short of exceptional! JayDee's attentive and thorough communication made navigating my sister's wedding preparations an absolute breeze. On the big day, he ensured our entire group felt completely relaxed and genuinely at ease, a testament to his clear vision and the team's seamless execution. The moment we received the notification that our photos and videos were ready, our excitement was palpable. Viewing them filled us with tears of joy and overwhelming love, as each beautifully captured memory transported us right back to the wedding day. I wholeheartedly recommend JayDee and Pluvia Studios to anyone seeking top-quality photography and videography to capture their most cherished moments.
