Mary was amazing to work with! Our wedding was October 9th 2023 at Trump Winery and she communicated with me every step of the way from the time I hired her many months in advance and even after the wedding was over. She is super sweet and her work is amazing! My husband said that we will definitely be using her in the future for maternity pictures when that time comes.(:

Located in central Virginia in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. Nicole and Missy can’t wait to capture your big day. With years of experience, we aim to have a fun and enjoying time capturing your wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Missy and Nicole were amazing! Working with them felt so natural and for the first time I felt so beautiful in front of a camera! My makeup was a little messed up from happy crying at our ceremony and they assured me it would not be a problem. Sure enough we got the photos back and they were BEAUTIFUL. They looked so natural and I did not see any of the makeup flaws I had that day. I think it is important to also mention that having two photographers is a game changer! They caught some pretty incredible moments from all different angles during our reception and worked so well together to create some unique/beautiful photos. These ladies are incredible and we cannot thank them enough for catching the best moments from our day on camera! We will definitely be recommending them to everyone we know. Thank you both so much again!

Rockingham, VA
  • Classic style

Earning your comfort & trust is key to warm, friendly photos that look and feel like you. I am always there with a smile, ready to crack a joke, give you a hand – or just a much needed Aperol Spritz and some space!

I've known Andrea for a very long time, so for me this was a no-brainer when deciding who would be responsible for capturing our day. Not only does she provide consistent communication over the course of your planning, but helps making the photo process easy by asking for required photos on your day, a well-detailed schedule of events, billing, etc. Her creativity is exactly what I was looking for and I cannot wait to get these photos into an album! Please don't look any further and just book her. I promise you will thank me. P.S. - Her candid shots are to die for!

Kylie Hinson Photography

Chester, VA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,400
  • Serves Dayton, VA

My philosophy is pretty simple: tell the most amazing love stories through photographs that capture true love, real emotion and beautiful moments. As a photographer, my job is to tell your love story the way that it unfolds. I believe in preserving the moment with artistry and authenticity. I want your photographs to be timeless and beautiful. From the big moments to the subtle details, I give each element equal attention and care. If it matters to you, it’s important to me, and that commitment will shine through in every image.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our family has come to adore Kylie as “one of the family!” Our daughter-in-law introduced her to us because Kylie was their engagement photos photographer as well as their wedding photographer. What a masterful job she did capturing those precious smiles and special moments that are now our beloved memories! The thing about Kylie, though, is her photography doesn’t ever come across as a “job;” it is clearly her passion! We have since used Kylie on a variety of other family photo opportunities, and she always arrives with such a calm; with her quiet, happy smile; and then she “does her thing” with confidence! Additionally, in a very timely manner, opening her gallery of pictures brings such JOY--looking through all the beautiful pictures she took! What talent she has! What a gift she is to anyone(s) seeking a positive, relaxed photography experience. There are not enough words to describe how much our family appreciates and values Kylie Hinson Photography!

My name is Holly and I capture timeless memories in one of the most hectic days of your life. I fell in love with photography in school but really took an interest after my son was born. Wanting to make sure I documented every little thing he did so I could remember years after was important to me. That turned into what is Holly Johnston Photography today. My passion is to document all of the moments through out your day so you can remember them years after, when you look back at your photos. I want you to be transported back to that day and remember all of the emotions and love.

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

This review is long overdue. One year ago today, Ashley photographed my intimate family wedding. Literally everyone at my wedding loved her. My brother is also a professional photographer (but a jinx for weddings) and complimented her sooo many times. She was so low-key throughout the event, blending right in throughout the day. She was so sweet and friendly, she basically felt like was part of the family that day. She got beautiful portraits of me and my husband, portraits with our families, then so many great candids throughout the day - exactly what we wanted. She definitely knows what she's doing with the couple portraits too - she gave us directions that sounded so silly at the time, but omg the pictures came out amazing. Cannot thank her enough, and cannot tell you enough to BOOK HER NOW!

From the first introduction phone call to hugging her goodbye at the end of our wonderful wedding day, Makayla was Amazing. She heard my wishes and concerns about our wedding photos and helped me see her vision. And even got me in a rowboat! (Forever Grateful!) And the final results are breathtaking and I can’t choose a single photo I love more than others. They’re all above and beyond my expectations. I also want to say…Makayla kept me calm prior to the ceremony in ways she probably doesn’t even know she helped me. She exudes kindness and anyone near her feels it. You will not be anything but blown away when you hire Mak’s Captured Moments. I will be forever grateful we connected on Zola. I started with a wedding photographer and ended with a friend.

Awarded Best of Zola
Let's be real. Weddings are wonderful and powerful and amazing days, but they're also big balls of stress. The best advice I ever received was from a friend who said, "find the photographer who can capture the amazing intimate moments, but also the person who you'd want to be a fly on the wall for them." After all, you spend about as much time with your wedding photographer as you do with your new spouse. Bethany was perfect for us. She captured engagement photos so stunning, so authentic, that I wish we could get a new set every year for our family. She captured perfect (occasionally hilarious) moments at the wedding that I would have completely missed otherwise - the way a friend helped you relax by pressing down on your shoulders as you got ready, the way your cousins looked at each other during a wedding toast, the way the cabin looked, it was perfect. And she created an amazing, dramatic photo that took full advantage of the rainy weekend. She's also just fun to be with; despite the stress around us, she was ready with a little joke that helped put us at ease. I think she's one of the only photographers who really got "me" in photos - not the person I try to be, or the awkward person who is trying to smile in the photos, but the person I am. I couldn't recommend her more.

People inspire me, YOU inspire me. I’d love to capture your story. I've grown to know this about myself when it comes to photography: my favorite style is a blend of documentary & journalism... the kind that takes you back and makes you feel a part of the moment when photo was actually captured. The type that TELLS A STORY, YOUR story. The kind that captures personality, messiness, and REAL expression. I'm obsessed with being able to do all of this through a lens and a camera. Beauty is in everyone, in everything, and everywhere.

Awarded Best of Zola
I absolutely loved my experience with Brandon. He was friendly, confident and an overall dream photographer! My now husband and I were blown away by our photos. Brandon was patient and understand of our circumstances. Both of my parents resided at the church where we wed and Brandon was more than willing to take photos out there at the gravestones. I wouldn't wanted to have anyone else on my special day. His amazing bright personality calmed our nerves. Thank you for being such a blessing!

Hi I'm Hannah and I'm from tiny fishing village in Cornwall, England but moved here to North Carolina in 2017. Fun fact, they actually filmed some of scenes for the Game of Thrones spin off, House of the dragon there! It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

Awarded Best of Zola
After speaking to a dozen or so photographers, we had pretty much given up. It seemed like no one was actually willing to work with us on what we were looking for, and were very rigid with the packages they offer. Enter...Hannah. Talking to Hannah immediately made me feel like I was chatting with an old friend. She really took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for. Our engagement session was so much fun, and we couldn't wait until our big day. Matt and Hannah's team was absolutely amazing! They got all of the shots we wanted plus so much more! Anyone that talked with them at the wedding said how sweet and personable they are! Then came the video...and I STILL cry every time we watch it. If you are looking for a company that will listen AND deliver - this team is for you!

Michelle is the best! We were so thankful to have her as our elopement photographer. She captured incredible moments from our ceremony followed by a photo shoot in the area afterwards. As a pretty camera-shy couple, Michelle immediately made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and had us laughing the whole time! She was so good at giving us direction that it felt natural and easy. It was clear she scoped out the area ahead of time too, with all the fun ideas she had and different spots we walked to. The best was when Michelle managed to find the prettiest street filled with cherry blossoms (at the start of spring)! From the beginning of our contact with her, Michelle was a joy to work with. Super communicative, kind, thoughtful, and professional. Her energy was infectious! We could not be happier with our photos and will be sure to book Michelle again if another occasion arises. If you're looking for a photographer, reach out to Michelle - you won't regret it!!

I capture love stories all over Virginia and Washington DC! Everyone's story matters. That's why I believe it is important to let my clients know that I am an LGBTQIA+ and BLM ally.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Kelly was better than I could have imagined! She talked with me over a Zoom call at the beginning of planning our wedding and made a wedding timeline with me. Over the months of planning our wedding, we edited the timeline a few times, and I was so happy to have her experience and guidance in that since we were not hiring a wedding coordinator. Kelly was prompt with her responses to my texts and emails, and always professional. Our engagement session with Kelly was so fun, and she made us both feel comfortable during our first professional photo shoot ever. She delivered over 100 photos just from our engagement shoot! The day of our wedding, Kelly wore many hats. She acted as coordinator by keeping everyone in line and everything according to our timeline. She was also basically my maid of honor, fixing my dress, buttoning my gown’s sleeves in the car on the way to our ceremony, and swapping her shoes with mine for 30 minutes so my feet could have a break from my uncomfortable shoes before our first dance. I also appreciated her taking charge when needed. It took some stress off of me and allowed me to enjoy our big day without having to boss people around, haha. When it was all said and done, she delivered about 1,000 stunning photos of our day that we will always cherish, and even sent 100 printed photos as a gift to us. Kelly, THANK YOU for making our wedding day run smoothly, hyping us both up, making us feel comfortable and heard, and delivering such special memories in picture form. 3 So thankful we found you to be our photographer!

I started working as a photographer because I'm passionate about helping people showcase who they are and what they have to offer. I work to remove myself from the equation and let my clients take the spotlight. It's thrilling to jump into a session and come out on the other side having learned beautiful new things about a person. When behind the camera I'm coaching you ever step of the way - helping you feel comfortable enough to let your true self emerge.

Michael is the ultimate second shooter! An amazing wedding PIC, so supportive, the biggest cheerleader for all parties involved vendors and otherwise, and HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. He gets the best angles and gives such an artistic POV while also just being a blast to work with. I wish I could force him on all my weddings lol

She made sure we got all the shots we wanted as well as many that came out better than I could have thought of! Within the first couple of pictures she took she showed me what it looked like from her side and I knew they would come out great. My entire family loved working with her and was so impressed with how she worked with us. The pictures came out wonderfully and I am so excited to have them displayed in our home.

Hey! It's me- your friendly neighborhood photographer! I am a Pisces. They say we're romantic and creative souls, so I guess it was written in the stars that I'd become this person. If you're into enneagrams, I am a 4- but this is new territory for me so I am not sure how I feel about that yet. They say I am good at this photography stuff and people seem to like me, so here I am!

Celeste is the absolute best at what she does. She is professional and detail oriented but also able to maintain a close relationship and have fun with her clients. I was a massive skeptic on professional photography- as me and my soon to be husband did not like being in-front of the camera. However, Celeste was so easy to open up with and not only was the experience to die for- she makes excellent company. My fiancé and I have grown close to Celeste and we look forward to our plans with her in the future. She is kind and open minded. She is punctual and flexible. She is witty and professional. Celeste has worked with my family and I to make sure that she makes it happen. My maternity photo location ended up being inaccessible the day of our session- and Celeste went above and BEYOND anything I could have asked if her. She set up a glamping tent on her OWN property and made magic with the circumstances we were given. She did my maternity photos in November of 2022, our first family photos in August of 2023, and will be not only photographing but a GUEST at our wedding in March of 2024. If you are new to professional pictures- or just looking for a breath of fresh air - I could not more passionately suggest anybody than Celeste.

She will move a stray hair, guide your posing, do the pose herself to help you understand it, etc. She is also a great communicator and will become friends with all of your important people at your big day (other vendors, your parents, etc).

Timeless. Intimate. Organic. My name is Molly Majher (pronounced like "major") and I am a wedding photographer serving VA, WV, MD and more! I'm a wife, mom, and LOTR & HP fangirl. When you hire me as your wedding photographer you don't just get a person who shows up with a camera, but you get someone who you can be yourself around, who answers your questions, helps create your wedding day timeline, holds your umbrella when it rains and calms your nerves. I do all this while taking stunning photos for you to remember all the big and little moments of your wedding day.

Do yourself a favor and hire Molly!!! I knew I wanted to work with her from the first moment we spoke on the phone for the initial consultation! Not only is she a wonderful photographer, she is also a wonderful person. We hired Molly for our engagement pictures, wedding pictures, and I even did a boudoir session with her. We loved how beautiful all of her photos were! She is super personably and makes even the most awkward people feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her booking process was very easy and she gave us all of our photos back in a timely manner. Molly's had a lot of good tips to help with the wedding planning process. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, professional, and easy-going photographer. I would also recommend her to anyone I know who is getting married. In short, on a scale from 1-10, I would give her an 11!

At the heart of my process, I believe in being a calming presence who gives you room to be the most genuine version of yourself in front of my camera, gently guiding you with prompts while capturing sophisticated portraits and true moments. As a bride, you know how fleeting the moments of your wedding day will pass you by. So rather than worrying if you’re missing any of it you value being present, and will hire a photographer who will allow you to do just that. This trust grants you the ability to live in the moment while we’re documenting them for you telling the story of your relationships with a gentle authenticity.

Amanda is a perfect choice to capture all of your best moments, no matter the occasion! Every vendor and the bride and groom appreciated her generous demeanor and skill set. She is a very nice person, too, that continues to care long after the contract ends!

Photography by Jo began back in 2014 when I shot my first wedding for my roommates, while still in college. That year, I fell in love with weddings and have focused on those and other major family milestones ever since.

If you are considering having Jo as your photographer for your engagement shoot, wedding shoot, family shot and more.. DO IT! Jo is incredible at what she does!

Watch it! lol) and I'm still just as in love as that third day.

My fiancé and I have worked with Yelitza twice and both experiences have been fantastic! She has made us both feel extremely comfortable both times and had great communication with us both times. During our first session she photographed us with our 6-month-old puppy who is very energetic she was very patient with him and was able to get great group shots of all of us. Our latest photography session was a rooftop city session and the photos came out absolutely amazing again! I would highly recommend Yelitza!

While Caitlin spent time with me pre-ceremony, Devin was with the groomsmen, so we have amazing photographs of both getting ready areas and double the pictures of the ceremony and reception. Both of them worked far beyond what a photographer could be expected to do and filled in gaps that I didn't even know I had in the planning. Truly cannot recommend them enough, they captured the very best in our day.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

I did not know Abbey from Adam, but booking with her is one of the best decisions I have ever made. She is personal, hilarious, professional, and great at her job. You need someone kicked out of the picture? Abbey is on it. You need a picture of a child laughing? Abbey’s got you. You need a picture that you didn’t know you needed? Abbey took it. She will make you feel comfortable during the entire session. Not only is she good at editing her photos, but she is also great at positioning everyone for the perfect picture. She has some tricks up her sleeve that will leave you laughing and giggling for days. During my husband and I’s engagement session, she told my husband to “whisper his favorite thing about me in my ear.” Of course my husband says something to get me laughing and make my cheeks bright red (no blush needed for this session). Overall Abbey is amazing and I cannot imagine another person taking our pictures. She will be our forever photographer!

I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Diana was absolutely amazing and I would 100% recommend her to anyone with no hesitation. From initial contact on, Diana was understanding of our concerns, given that we had had an issue with a previous photographer, and truly worked to reassure us and gain our trust. She was flexible, so positive and personable and of course, the photos we’ve seen so far are absolutely gorgeous and we can’t wait to see the rest. Our friends and family raved about Diana and her assistant Sarah, and told us how wonderful and friendly they were, that they felt like they were really on top of it, addressed any concerns that they had and just overall were an absolute pleasure to be around and had such a positive impact on our day. If you’re reading this and are on the fence about hiring Diana, which I don’t understand how you could be, let this be your sign to work with her. You will have no regrets and you will absolutely love your photos!

Authentic moments are what set our hearts on fire! We strive to capture you exactly as you are and bring out your personality. Think of us as your best friends that you haven't gotten to meet yet - we are known for dancing with our couples at receptions, snuggling babies to get a few solo pictures of the parents, and becoming lifelong friends with our seniors. We cannot wait to meet you!

Awarded Best of Zola
TL;DR: 15/10 -- She simplifies EVERYTHING about wedding planning AND takes the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. She will be taking our pictures for the rest of our lives. They are incredible. Kyra from beginning to end made everything absolute perfection. The pictures, my sanity, basically everything. We brought her to Crozet, VA for our engagement photos and our big day. Pre-Engagement get to know you session: We face-timed for 2.5 hours (not required just happened naturally). She cares about everything and anything you want to share and supports your vision. Engagement Session: She took the time (right after having a baby nonetheless) to come to us and make sure we were happy and comfortable in every way. Kyra got to know Dan (my husband) better and is the only person to this day that can make him smile naturally for pictures. Planning: Kyra provided anything and everything I needed or didn't know I needed. Refined/recommended timelines, pictures, hair styles, dresses, snacks for getting ready, laughter, you name it, she did it. If I had another vendor I needed a second opinion on, she reviewed their work. If I wasn't sure on chicken or crab cakes, she knew what would be a crowd pleaser. Basically she had wisdom and advice well beyond her years to accompany her incredible talent. Weekend of: Kyra and Heather came out early and scoped out the best locations for everything indoors and outside at the exact time the ceremony would be held to make sure the lighting was perfect. Day of: I would have fallen apart without her. Every picture she took was of real, candid, happy moments that my brain was too stressed to miss. When I ripped my dress, she and Heather whipped out sewing scissors to fix the problem. They kept the train moving and captured every moment beautifully. Best to have a photographer dancing with y'all to get the moment just right, and she does that. If I could give more stars I would.

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

I would recommend TM Grey 1000/10. Taliya is amazing! Right from our first video call I knew we would be in the best hands! She was so organized and gave us a thorough timeline of events. She also routinely checked in with us and was available for questions. Our photos of course turned out amazing! We literally cannot pick a favorite picture because we love them all. She did a great job to ensure all the shots we wanted were done, with multiple options to choose from. And she was so quick and efficient with the family and group photos without making it feel rushed. This was so helpful in allowing us to participate in our cocktail hour but still get all the family and group photos we wanted. Our friends and family all agreed how amazing Taliya was! One thing I didn’t realize is how much time you will spend with your photographer on your wedding day so it really does matter who you choose. Taliya is so nice and friendly. We enjoyed spending time with her! She made us laugh and most importantly feel comfortable in front of the camera. I truly cannot say enough positive things about Taliya!

About wedding photographers in Dayton, VA

How much does a wedding photographer typically cost in Dayton, VA?

A Dayton, VA wedding photographer ranges from $250 to $8,000 and averages at $2,800. The cost reflects the number of hours included, if there is a second photographer, any prints or albums, and, most importantly, the experience of the photographer.
