Annie was able to really capture the emotion, beauty, and love in both our engagement photos and wedding photos! We got sneak peaks from the wedding 2 days after the wedding day which were so fun to look through so soon after everything happened. She’s super friendly, fun, and has a great creative mind. We had extra time for our bride & groom portraits and had a blast doing some fun and artsy poses with her.

Hi, I’m Kendal! I’m a wife, mama to two little ones, and lover of all things photography and storytelling. I believe in capturing love in its truest form — the laughter, the quiet moments, and everything in between.

Choosing Little Goose Studio to capture our big day was one of the best choices we could have made for our elopement. Kendal is so skilled and creative! On our wedding day, she made us (two introverts) feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and utilized the natural beauty of our elopement spot to capture the unique vibe of our day. The final photos exceeded our expectations and we are thrilled to have such beautiful and creative memories to look back on. We highly recommend Little Goose Studio!!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story.

My husband and I come as a photo team! We feel your day should be captured your way! So we tailor our style and editing to each unique couple! It’s not about us, it’s about you. We will help you document what is most important to you, the way you envision! Just like you, we have felt awkward in front of the camera. We’ve had photos taken of us that we didn’t like. We will make sure you not only feel comfortable, but that you look good! We give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable.

Awarded Best of Zola
PictureMeThisByLacie was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding process. Lacie was amazing to work with the entire time. She was easy to communicate with and kept us updated on our photo timelines, not to mention all of our photos turned about AMAZING. Our package included an engagement session and Lacie worked out a weekend she was already in Chicago to accommodate us. Leading up to our session, we had issues with controlled fires and protests in our preferred location, but Lacie found us a spot that blew my expectations for photos out of the water. She gave us a sneak peak and also got our pictures back to us super quick. On our big day, Lacie and Tim(her husband/second photographer) were the best to work with. They made us feel comfortable and captured our day better than we could have imagined. As soon as they got there, they got straight to work. Lacie got all the details and getting ready photos that I will cherish forever. Things were running behind the day of and they let us add on an hour to our contract the day of and pay at a later date. This ensured that we got dance floor photos and it was so worth it! Specifically getting pictures of my husband's grandmother in her 80s dancing with all her grandkids. We received a sneak peak very quickly and our whole (massive) gallery less than 2 months after the wedding. For as many photos as we got, this was a crazy quick turn around. Overall, PictureMeThisByLacie captured our day better than we could have ever imagined, we could not recommend them more!

Blue Dahlia Photography

  • Serves Dayton, TN

My name is Rabeeh and I'm new to ZOLA (you can see over 250 reviews on my Knot profile). When I first started taking pictures, I can honestly say that I didn't plan on becoming a wedding photographer. Most other photographers I socialized with would tell me how stressful and demanding wedding photography could be. Over a decade and numerous weddings later, I must strongly disagree! I want you to relax, breathe deeply, and experience every moment of your wedding with as little worry or concern as possible. A little about myself, I am an easy going guy who enjoys numerous hobbies ranging from collecting antique cameras to the art of bonsai.

Awarded Best of Zola
We used Rabeeh at Blue Dahlia for our recent wedding and were thrilled with our photos!! Rabeeh was awesome to work with. So patient and kind through the process and offered great suggestions. He allowed us to be ourselves and have fun with it, but also got the photos of our event that will allow us to remember the day perfectly 20 years from now! I would definitely recommend Blue Dahlia to anyone who is looking for that personal touch in their wedding photos and as a bonus he was also reasonably priced, as well, which we also appreciated!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE our wedding photos!!"

Hiya, I’m Michelle, your coulda-been-a-bridesmaid photographer. I cherish ALL forms 🌈 of human connection. The quiet hand squeezes, the belly laughs, the “holy crap we just got married” moments. For 13+ years I’ve captured weddings all over Memphis + the Mid-South with a bold, vibrant, heartfelt style that’s all about making you feel comfortable, confident, and completely present. From Memphis rooftops to garden ceremonies, I’ll be the bestie by your side through the big cheers, the quiet tears, and those wild dance floor moments you’ll never forget.

Michelle and her assistant photographer, Nicole S., were so amazing. They came in and made us feel at ease. While I definitely don’t have any issues being in front of the camera, but husband does. But she did an amazing job making us both feel comfortable and was great at wrangling my wild and crazy family. She was always giving me pointers before significant moments to give me the best possible poses and shots even when motion was involved. She was patient and most of all kind. I highly recommend Michelle! Thank you so much!!!

When I was a kid all I wanted to be was a photographer (or a vet) and in 2019 o my husband gave me that opportunity. I left my corporate job to pursue my passion. I started a pet sitting business AND a photography business at the same time and I think it's safe to say that right now I am living the dream. I have three beautiful cats and a wonderful husband who supports me in whatever I do.

Hi, my name is Maria Davis! I am a documentary style photographer capturing love stories on both film and digital. I am a homegrown and local Winston-Salem, NC girl with a second location in Boston, MA. You can usually find me along the upper east coast, but I happily offer my services within the USA with $0 travel feels. If you are interested in working together, please visit my website to see a little more about me, my work, and how I can help you make your wedding day visions real.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you have the opportunity to work with Maria we recommend you take that chance while you’ve got it. She is an AMAZING photographer, fun to work with, and is so thoughtful/ helpful during the planning journey. We’ve already had a friend say they’d hit her up if they get married because they loved our experience and photos so much. 10000% could not recommend her enough. When we were looking for a wedding and engagement photographer we wanted someone who was creative in their shots, had crystal clear photo quality, and had a true to life/vibrant photography style - and Maria was the perfect fit! We had a phone consultation where she asked thoughtful questions to get to know us as a couple but also helped asked things related to photography to help us communicate our desires and ensure she was the right fit. Maria wants her couples to have the dreamiest day and I loved how intentional she was with helping us communicate our vision - she’s the pro and knew exactly what to ask to get us thinking! We were immediately obsessed and left in awe at some sample galleries, so we signed right away. When it came time for our engagement photos we had this super fun pre-shoot questionnaire that once again consisted of thoughtful questions (our planner was SO impressed with them), such as if there were any specific shots we wanted or our comfort level with photos. My now husband and I sat down with wine and went through the questions together, so that itself was a fun planning experience. We’re not the most comfortable in front the camera so it was cool to feel seen and have her understand us before we arrived to the shoot. And let me tell you we had the BEST time! We felt comfortable so quickly and the shoot flew by. The photos turned out AMAZING and we got even more excited for the wedding. Before the wedding we had a questionnaire to go over our desires for the wedding (and even had a chance to put secret info if you had any surprises for people or just wanted her to be aware of certain family dynamics you don’t want widely disseminated). On our wedding day Maria even handled a situation for us when we asked for help and she was the most discreet and professional and got us taken care of. We just got our full gallery back and the photos are the dreamiest - incredible sunset photos, creative and thoughtful detail shots, and excellent photos of our guests. The gallery captures our day perfectly and is everything and more than we could have asked for. Maria is timely, talented, professional, a cool person, and is someone we’d hire again in a heartbeat. Plus, she’s always down for an adventure so if you want to travel I’m sure she’ll be happy to meet you there and help make your photography dreams come true. We will cherish our engagement and wedding photos forever. All photos credited to Maria at MTD Photo Co.

Breana was AMAZING for our engagement shoot! My fiancé and I never had professional photos taken of us prior, and Breana made us feel so comfortable, confident and less awkward in front of the camera. I sent her over my Pinterest board with inspo and she literally brought it to life. We shot at 2 locations (a dive bar and a record store) and she was full of creative ideas and executed them perfectly. Breana’s so relaxed but still extremely concise and informative. We are OBSESSED with our engagement pics and cannot recommend her enough!!

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!

Joey was very professional and friendly throughout the process and is always available to answer our questions. On the wedding day, he and his team were early and worked restlessly to get all the details of my wedding, getting ready to the send-off. The final photos and videos were plentiful and were professionally and naturally edited, as I had requested during our consultation. I could not be happier with our experience with him and his team, and I strongly recommend using his service for your wedding day.

I didn't have to worry if she was on time or ready for the next event - she was always there, ready and smiling! Her pictures were also perfect - the editing was just what the couple wanted, and she returned them quickly. Highly recommend her!

If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about more than hiring a professional to take photos — it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!

Faith is one of the most intentional people I’ve met — she was there every step of the way during wedding planning to support us and provided so much comfort and overall good vibes on the day of! I felt so at ease the entire wedding day, and I credit that to our incredible vendor team, Faith and her team included. I received so many sneak peek pics just under a week after my wedding (a few I got almost immediately!!), and it was amazing to be able to relive those moments already and share them with friends and family. Seeing how she captured these moments, big and small, makes me SO excited to see the final gallery!!! Her editing style is simply gorgeous — it was the main reason I reached out to her initially — but she’s also just a wonderful friend and human. When you already feel like you know someone, it makes it so much easier to be your authentic selves in front of the camera, and for that to shine through in photos. We both have so much love for Faith and are forever grateful she was there to document the beginning of the newest chapter of our love story

As a documentary-style photographer, I truly believe that the essence of life is captured in the unscripted, candid moments that often go unnoticed-- Each click of my camera is more than just a snapshot; it’s an opportunity to freeze time and preserve the love, joy, and uniqueness of your moments for generations to come.

Where to begin?! Anna made my wedding day MAGICAL! Our photos felt like actual works of art, yet somehow were captured in such a natural way. She was the one decision I made as far as vendors go that I actually felt peace with. I had zero doubts she would make mine and my husbands day so special, and she truly did. I feel like I'm transported back into time every time I look at our photos!

We truly cannot imagine our story being documented by anyone other than Cece. She has been with us capturing so many of our life’s biggest moments; our engagement photos, pregnancy announcement, family mini session, and most recently, our dreary rainy wedding day and she has delivered absolute magic every single time. Her talent goes far beyond just taking pictures. She has a gift for making every session feel effortless, natural, and FUN.
