Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

I can't say enough good things about Alina and her husband! They were so in tuned to us and our requests as a couple. I was able to share some must have pictures for my engagement session with her and she made them ALL happen. She took us on a mini adventure in downtown Miami and we had the absolute best time! We were able to shoot in 3 different locations thanks to the help of her husband driving laps around the area and us shooting and hopping into the "getaway" car. She developed the pictures SOOOOO fast! We were able to have sneak peaks the very next day! Her and her husband have been married for many years and are a great testament to how a happy and healthy marriage looks like. Alina is so personable, kind and easy to talk to as well. She feels like a friend and I am so excited to have her be a part of my wedding day! The attention to detail and the personal love and care that she has shown us has honestly made her my absolute favorite vendor so far. She is everything that I could have possibly wanted in a wedding photographer and more! She is a MUST HAVE photographer and we will be recommending her to anyone who may need one in the future.

Hiring Luca as our wedding photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made during the entire planning process. From our very first conversation, I knew we were in the presence of someone not just with technical skill, but with a heart for people, and an artist’s eye for light and emotion. Luca somehow managed to be everywhere at once, catching every moment we didn’t even realize was happening. Her ability to capture the feeling of the day, not just the events, still blows my mind. Our sneak peeks came within 24 hours and made me cry happy tears all over again. The full gallery? I can’t even explain. We didn’t just receive photos. We received a gift that I’ll be showing my grandchildren one day, saying, “This was the day I married your grandpa.” Luca, thank you for treating our day like it mattered to you, too.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

Manai was so communicative. We started with a nearly 2 hour video call. He was so good about making sure he understood our vision. We had several emails afterwards to get his help with our schedule and other vendors. We had a final 1 hour call just before the wedding to finalize all of the details. 10 out of 10. Manai knows his stuff and it felt good on the day of my wedding realizing we hired the right person. He pretty much knew everything that was happening even before it happened. I'm a pretty anxious person so it was nice having someone to kind of help guide the day along. Thank you Manai! Wishing you so much success. You deserve it!

Hey there! We're Dylan & Esteban, a husband and wife photo and video team based in Georgia. :) We approach weddings and elopements with the belief that the best moments happen when you’re fully present, not performing for the camera. By working as a photo and video team, we document your day in a way that feels seamless and unintrusive, focusing on real interactions as they unfold. We'll guide you when needed and step back to let moments unfold naturally as they are meant to happen! You don't have to worry about being awkward in front of the camera or what to do with your hands, we've got you!

It was a no-brainer after interviewing multiple photographers videographers and seeing the care Dylan and Esteban put into every step of the process. We clicked instantly on our first call, and every time we saw them it only got more fun (with the best photo and video keepsakes to show for it). There aren’t enough positive words to express our gratitude for their incredible work and their genuine hearts. We’re so grateful to now call them true friends. If you want a team who cares deeply, makes you feel like your best selves, and delivers unmatched quality, call them immediately; you won’t find a better duo.

I create captivating and timeless photographs that capture the essence of my couple's unique connection, immortalizing their love in stunning portraits. With meticulous attention to detail, I expertly capture those candid, stolen glances and gentle, affectionate touches that make my couple's love story exceptional.

I cannot describe how wonderful our experience with Ke.Vassilli was from start to finish. The pictures from our wedding are stunning. He captured everything. Ke.vassilli was so lovely to have around on our wedding day, which had just a few family members, and he felt like one of the family by the end of it.
