Yosaidy Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Durham, NC

Hi, I’m Yosaidy your hype woman, storyteller, and third wheel with a camera. I’m a Venezuelan photographer and graphic designer, currently based in New York (but always down to travel). I’ve been in the U.S. since 2016, but I actually started shooting weddings back in Venezuela when I was just 18. Since then, photography has taken me on the wildest ride meeting people from all over the world, learning about different cultures, and capturing the kind of moments you never forget.

Awarded Best of Zola
Yosaidy has an amazing eye for detail. She captured not only the big moments but also the small, meaningful ones the looks, the hands holding, the laughter with family and friends. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving our wedding day all over again. Her work is emotional, beautiful, and so thoughtfully done.

Jessica and Levi were absolutely phenomenal photographers!

The day of, they arrived early and picked the perfect spots (with the most gorgeous light) to photograph us in.

The photographs themselves are gorgeous, we truly couldn’t have imagined more beautiful images, and we absolutely loved the moments they captured.

  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Durham, NC

Hey! I'm Rae, and I've been photographing weddings for 15+ years (500 wedding days!) This just means I have the experience and credibility to be reliable and create beautiful results, no matter what. I love weddings because I love documenting relationships. Those special people are the most important parts of our lives. I love photographing anything that involves couples, and also making people feel like STUNNERS. Engagements, maternity, senior portraits, models = *heart eyes* I believe that life should be remembered as beautifully as it felt when it happened.

Rae is an incredible photographer! It was so important to me to have someone who can make me feel comfortable while taking pictures along with my fiancé. I am happy to report that Rae is an absolute pro at it. I highly recommend Rae to anyone looking for an amazing photographer - she's definitely the one to trust!

  • Serves Durham, NC

Hi, I'm Coby! I am so excited you are here! It is a privilege to be invited to some of the most pivotal and beautiful moments in people's lives. My couples choose me to preserve true, honest memories of their newly forming family tree. They trust me to truly see these connections and document them with professionalism and artistic ability so that they come away with photos that are treasured for the rest of their lives.

Where to even begin?! We met Coby at a bridal show and she was so warm and open right from the beginning. We met for coffee and discussed how we wanted our wedding to be, and we just knew she was who we wanted as our photographer. She helped with planning so when our wedding day arrived, it was simply perfect! We woke up the day after our wedding to beautiful sneak peeks and our whole wedding album was complete a few weeks later. The whole process was simply amazing!

Kivus & Camera 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Durham, NC

I used to be a divorce attorney, I had brain surgery, and now I'm a wedding photographer. Yes, you read that right. But there's obviously more to the story. Before going to law school I went to school for photojournalism and even worked for newspapers. After brain surgery turned my life upside down, I realized I wanted to go back to my roots as a photojournalist and I wanted to capture truly joyful, enthusiastic moments and voila - I fell in love with weddings and photographing them.

Awarded Best of Zola
When it came to wedding planning, the photographer was my most important decision. That's also what I say to friends and family who are planning weddings. After everything is over, your photographs are what you have to remember a once-in-a-lifetime experience that is over in a blink! It was important to me that our photos reflected our personalities and were worthy of our walls and frames. Kivus & Camera are truly exceptional wedding photographers and were everything I had hoped for. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication style was open, caring, and responsive. They were dependable and fully committed to ensuring our wedding day was captured beautifully. As an LGBTQ couple, we worried the perfect photographer would be hard to find, but Elyssa and John are wonderful, and we couldn't have done better. Elyssa is a lovely person who is easy to hang out with on top of being a fabulous, talented and professional photographer. The quality of their work is simply stunning - they have an artistic, one-of-a-kind style that resulted in photos that are both beautiful and unique. We will enjoy our photos and memories from our engagement shoot and wedding day for years to come thanks to the thoughtful way Elyssa and John captured each moment. Logistically, our photos were easy to get and work with. Elyssa curates things for you in a way that makes sense. We ordered a photo book as well, and it is absolutely gorgeous. We cannot recommend Kivus & Camera enough to any couple looking for wedding photographers who will go above and beyond to make your special day perfect. In fact, they just photographed my sister's wedding this summer as well. So you know that we were all happy if we were willing to make it a family affair! You will not be sorry if you work with Kivus & Camera. (But you might be sorry if you don't!)

Tuuba Tuncer Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Durham, NC

I’m Tuuba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have an MFA from Boston University in visual arts. Photography has been more than a hobby for me. Throughout my life and education, I have often used photography as a medium to explore my artistic endeavors. *pronounced “Too-baa”

We loved working with Tugba so much! From the moment I (the bride) met her I knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did; she was very professional (responsive to communications, patient with the number of questions we had) and accommodating throughout the entire three years that we worked with her as we had to reschedule our wedding TWICE! Tugba has such a wonderful eye and is very experienced; she captured all the key moments that we indicated we wanted captured, and took other photos we didn't even know that we wanted but are so glad that we have. Also, neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Tugba directed us into the best lighting and poses to make sure we looked our best. She and her second photographer were as unobtrusive as possible throughout the event, while still managing to capture some really amazing candid shots that we are going to cherish as much as the posed ones. We do not have the words to express how much we love our wedding photos -- they are gorgeous and every time we look at them we are able to relive our magical day. We would highly recommend Tugba for your photography needs.

Kaitlyn Blake Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,300
  • Serves Durham, NC

Are you looking for a photographer that feels more like a friend? One that makes you comfortable when posing and documents natural laughs? Oh hey! You found me! What is my style? I'm a candid and VIBRANT photographer. How would my friends describe me? Bubbly, loyal, and hilarious. Okay, maybe they don't tell me I'm hilarious but I laugh at my own jokes.

Strongly recommend working with Kaitlyn for your wedding photos-- we are so pleased with how the photos from our wedding turned out. I don't know how, but Kaitlyn captured just about every moment to a "t". Even reviewing our photos, we caught so many moments we missed the day of. So grateful we had such a professional and well-equipped photog in our corner on our special day-- it allowed us to kick back and enjoy ourselves, and I'm *SO* glad we put our faith in her. One note-- when working with Kaitlyn, she'll ask you to fill out a survey before your event. I'm so glad she did, because it got us thinking about what our priorities were before our wedding day, and every single photo we could've wanted or asked for is there! She even managed to corral our very camera-shy dog.

David is down to earth, chill, and is easy to work with. David also specializes in family photos, spring and fall mini sessions, engagements, bridals, and branding.

We truly can’t say enough good things about our wedding photographer! As out-of-town clients, planning a wedding from afar came with its challenges, but he went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth and stress-free. From our very first conversation, he made us feel seen, heard, and completely at ease. On the day of our engagement shoot, he instantly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (which is no small feat!)—he has such a calm, kind presence that brought out the best in us. The photos turned out absolutely stunning—natural, timeless, and full of emotion. You can tell he puts his heart into every shot. When our wedding had to be rescheduled and he was no longer available on the new date, he didn’t just leave us hanging—he found us the perfect replacement, someone who matched his style and vibe flawlessly. That level of care and dedication is rare, and we are beyond grateful for it. He is truly the best and the kindest, and anyone would be lucky to have him capture their big day.
