Hi, I'm Devin, the photographer behind Crafted Nuance Photography. Based in the Hickory, North Carolina area, I serve couples throughout Western North Carolina, Charlotte, Lake Norman, the High Country, and beyond. My work combines documentary storytelling with a fine art perspective. I believe every couple deserves to have their story documented with care, respect, and intention. In addition to photographing weddings, my fine art work has been exhibited in galleries, shaping the artistic approach I bring to every celebration I'm honored to document.

Devin was an absolute joy to work with and made us (the wedding couple) feel so much more comfortable and confident throughout the day. It was clear through the way he interacted with us that he was invested in making our wedding day go well, and offered plenty of encouragement through the first look and couples photo session, as well as even giving us a preview of the shots he had taken through the day. His work is awesome, and shows care and sensitivity to the environment he is working in. Looking through the shots we received (which was much more than anticipated), it’s evident he was moving around a lot, but impressively remained unnoticed while the ceremony was going on. And he put in the time after the wedding to make sure that we received the photos with the shortest of wait times. Ultimately, Devin showcases his skills in consideration and genuine desire to provide for his clients, though now, through this experience, I’d say we are friends! Thoroughly satisfied with Crafted Nuance Photography!!

Now And Forever Photography 
Rating: 4.7 (13 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $875
  • Serves Drexel, NC

Our work involves a lot of interaction between you and your partner: the way you smile, hug, laugh and goof off together. We use natural light to create artistically genuine moments. Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time. Our ultimate goal is to be a companion with you throughout your wedding planning process as a friend, not a vendor. We're not someone who simply ‘gets the job done’— We're with you every single step of the way, from the first time we talk until your images are delivered.

Now And Forever Photography was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Alicia, the lead photographer, was easy to communicate with, messaging and calling to finalize all the details for both our engagement session and wedding day. Her eye for detail, use of natural lighting, and creative approach really brought to life the ideas I had envisioned. When we hit a hiccup with the engagement session location closing early, Alicia was extremely understanding and helped us seamlessly reroute to capture beautiful photos. I highly recommend Now And Forever Photography and will definitely keep them in mind for any future photography needs.

Morgan Long Photography

  • Serves Drexel, NC

I'm Morgan! I am a photographer who has a passion for capturing timeless love stories and those precious, candid moments you'll never want to forget. I'm down to hike mountains with you, capture your snow day, and everything in-between. I'm your hype girl on your wedding day, a photographer you can trust, and hopefully your friend! My primary focus is documenting couples and love stories, including elopements and weddings no matter how big or small. My favorite part of a wedding day is the moments after the ceremony when the bride and groom walk out as husband and wife, having a few short moments to themselves before welcoming everyone.

I will never be able to put into words how thankful I am that I came across Morgan. I’ve only received my sneak peeks as it’s been 2 days since my wedding, and we are so blown away. I can’t wait to receive our full gallery and relive the best day of my life. Morgan is 100% for the couple and that is made so evident on the wedding day. Her style is absolutely elegant and perfect. We have never felt so comfortable in front of a camera. My family and friends had nothing but amazing things to say about her as a person and the photos. Please do yourself a favor and book her- you will NOT regret it!

While I love that glow, I have shot in many different lighting, weather, and locations to ensure we create magic even without the sun!

Awarded Best of Zola
Amanda is by far the best photographer I’ve worked with. She and her co shooter Renee are so personable and will put endless effort into making your day perfect. My videographer was late for my first look/ vows. Amanda didn’t hesitate to make sure she got photos, but also recorded it so we’d still be able to have footage. The whole day she went above and beyond to make sure we were getting all the photos we wanted, making sure the groom and I were eating and comfortable, she even jumped on the dance floor to get people dancing and keep the energy high! She got preview photos to me 3 days after the wedding. The preview was huge and amazing. If Amanda is available on your wedding day book her ASAP!!

Mazzucco Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Drexel, NC

I'm a creative minded, outgoing and silly girl. I'll join you on the dance floor during your wedding reception, but you can also find me crying behind my camera lens as you say your I Do's. I'm a photographer who just loves love. I graduated from Western Carolina University with my Bachelors in Science in Communications, focused in Public Relations and minoring in Marketing. My boyfriend and I, Dylan, met while we were both students at Western Carolina and he's been one of the reasons why I finally took the leap to become my own boss -- in a pandemic, nonetheless!

Mazzucco Photography was a true blessing to work with at this wedding. Her communication was quick and responsive, which was especially helpful when a previous photographer had to cancel last minute. The quality of their work was fantastic, with an incredible attention to detail and capturing the genuine emotions of day. Mary was wonderful to collaborate with, adapting seamlessly to the changes and challenges we faced (thanks, COVID!). To top it off, she even texted to ask if we wanted coffee on her way to the venue - it was her birthday, but she was thinking of us! Mazzucco Photography's beautiful, artistic photography is a true gift, and anyone would be lucky to have them capture their wedding day.

I’m Ashley Young, a wedding and engagement photographer based in Hickory, North Carolina. I create refined, timeless imagery by blending candid moments with gently guided and thoughtfully posed portraits. From intentional pre-wedding planning and timeline support to delivery of your final gallery, I offer a seamless, elevated experience designed for the classic bride who values genuine emotion and beautiful detail. My goal is to capture your day with artistry and heart, preserving moments that feel as meaningful as they are enduring.

Highly recommend Ashley Young Photography for any important event where you need a professional photographer. I hired her for my wedding day and have absolutely no regrets. She schedules an initial check-in meeting about 3 months out from the wedding and then a final check-in a couple weeks before the wedding. Ashley was so calm and on point all day for my wedding. She corrected us when we needed to reposition in photos and helped fluff my veil and dress to get the absolute best shots. If I needed a tissue, to dab my eyes or nose, she had it. She helped with my fashion tape for my wedding dress straps to stay in place and rebustle my dress all evening because it did not want to stay bustled. Ashley is an all around fabulous person and photographer. Her photos are breathtakingly beautiful. I would utilize her again for any future professional photo shoots.

Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography and DJ. I had first reached out to Darcy before I had even booked a venue - I just loved the editing style of the photos. Our lead Denida and and second shooter Will were friendly, communicative, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire wedding day. They kept us on schedule, if not ahead of it, and Denida even showed us some incredible photos as she was taking them. Will captured great shots of the groom and groomsmen, and also provided excellent second angles. I am so thankful we got to work with them. We also bundled our photography with the DJ, who was also wonderful - DJ Floyd kept the energy up all night, mixed the music perfectly, and checked in to make sure everything was going well. With OLAS, we were able to capture so many great memories and beautiful photos that we'll cherish forever.

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee). Based in Iowa, I serve the Midwest, Western NC, Denver, and beyond. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 150 weddings photographed, it still surprises me how my love for this industry grows each year. This work is not about me, it's about the individuals in front of my lens. I can’t tell an honest story if I’m constantly interfering, directing, and manipulating moments. I want your photos to render cherished memories from your day with your people, not memories of your photographer. I’m there to tell the beautiful and imperfect story as it unfolds.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we first got engaged, Haverlee Photography was a no brainer, and she lived up to everything and more. Every picture from our engagement session, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day is stunning and I have the hardest time picking my favorites. Hands down, best decision on wedding vendors was picking Haverlee. On top of delivering beautiful photos we will cherish forever, Haverlee made everything so fun and easy. My husband said our engagement session was like a date night, and Haverlee had me feel so at ease and beautiful through every step of our wedding day. She is the kindest human who gets the perfect shots of all the small moments, which truly matter to us and feel like us. Haverlee will always be our go to photographer for all the special moments for our family, and you can't go wrong with choosing her to be a part of your special day.

I couldn’t have asked for better! Evan and Gabby were amazing with communication and seeing our vision. We were very nervous about pictures but Evan and Gabby made us feel relaxed and guided us through everything. They captured all moments of the night and have given us the most beautiful pictures that we can look back on forever. We couldn’t have asked for better and blessed to have had them be our photographers.

Hi, I’m Carson, and I’m based in Columbia, SC! I have been photographing weddings and elopements for over seven years! I was born and raised in East Tennessee but have lived all over the country. While my primary focus is wedding photography, I am also a biologist, which brought me to this beautiful state. I love expressing my creative side through photography and witnessing the joy it brings to my clients. I specialize in a blend of editorial and documentary-style photography. I aim to capture natural moments as the day unfolds, but I’m also happy to give gentle guidance when needed.

We have no regrets with Carson photographing our surprise proposal and engagement photos! There were a lot unknown variables on the day of the proposal and Carson was very flexible and helpful through it all. She even came back out the next morning to finish our engagement session because of a surprise rain storm. She is kind and knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. Book her for your engagement, you won't regret it!

At Vision Forward Media LLC, based in Georgia, I specialize in capturing the authentic, heartfelt moments that make your wedding unforgettable. I love working with fun, laid-back couples, ensuring your photography experience is stress-free and full of joy. Whether it’s a rustic barn, lush garden, or cityscape, I craft timeless images that reflect your unique love story one genuine moment at a time

Vision Forward Media, LLC was an excellent choice for our wedding photography. Their communication style was very efficient, which helped our wedding day run smoothly. I love their work and their style, which is comparable to some of the trendy styles I've seen on social media. Vision Forward Media was there for our entire day, and their team was very professional. They set clear expectations about what to expect, and they exceeded those expectations. I am overall pleased with their work and professionalism, and most of all, they were able to capture my beautiful wife on our special day, a day we will remember forever. Thank you Vision Forward Media for your expertise and time - we will cherish these photos forever. Highly recommended.
