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.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I are not the comfortable being in front of the camera and Michelle made us feel SO comfortable and excited to take pictures. She listened to us throughout the entire process and captured exactly what we wanted in our wedding photos. She was also so excited to do whatever we wanted (which included pictures at Jerry’s Sno Cones!) and made everything about our wedding day perfect.

H1! I'm Laramie Renae, Owner and Photographer at Wandering Creative. I am a Wedding & Documentary Photographer, based in Memphis, TN. I am an avid documentarian, and I cannot wait to capture your day :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Laramie is FANTASTIC! Everyone keeps talking about how good the photos are, and my husband agrees and is glad we went with Wandering Creative like I wanted. She was able to cover the entire wedding and get those extra pics of the food and decorations, things that people don't really think about. AND she got the crucial moments. She literally captured his immediate reaction to seeing me coming down the aisle! I looked at so many photographers, but I kept coming back to Wandering Creative because I loved the photos and her vision so much. And she did not disappoint. These are photos that you will look back on for the rest of your life. One of my friends said it best when she said, “she really captured the energy of your wedding”. When I look at these photos, I remember and can feel our happiness and how much fun we had. And thanks to Wandering Creative, I always will.

Hi, I’m Leslie, the heart behind Leslie Grace Photography & Films! I have been photographing weddings for nine years and I believe your wedding day is about so much more than beautiful photos—it’s about the love, laughter, emotions, and little moments you never want to forget. I’m here to make you feel comfortable, have fun, and be completely YOU while I capture your day naturally and authentically, from the happy tears and to the crazy dance moves and everything in between. I’m more than just the person behind the camera. I’ll guide you when you need it, capture the moments as they unfold, and celebrate right alongside you. My goal? For you to look back at your photos and films and feel exactly how you felt on your wedding day. ❤️

Awarded Best of Zola
Leslie Grace Photography & Films was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was phenomenal, outstanding, and always on time. The quality of their work and overall value is unmatched - Leslie has a way of making me feel like a model, and she would even send us photos at 2 AM just to make sure we could get our pictures back quickly. Leslie really went above and beyond to contribute to our special day. When I was feeling nervous before the ceremony, she called me aside and asked me to describe my wife in a few words, which ended up capturing such an emotional moment that I started tearing up. She also made the photo sessions fun and engaging, even getting our rambunctious toddler to smile the whole time. Leslie Grace Photography will undoubtedly be the only person we use for any future photoshoots - she makes us feel so comfortable and special, and has truly transformed what I used to dread into a party when my wife tells me it's time for photos!

EDITORIAL MEETS DOCUMENTARY If you're looking for a photographer who captures the little moments and preserves your day in the way it happened, while bringing in the feel of curated images and an elevated experience, you're in the right place. Images will be created by curating artistic images with posing & prompts, while eliminating the feeling of your day being a production and capturing the real things as they happen. True-to-life and true-to-color is the vibe here to give you photos you'll want to share and hang on your walls until the end of time. If you're looking for magical, intentional photos that just scream you, let's connect.

You can see from Hannah's work on her page that she is an AMAZING photographer. Her work speaks for me. She captured our day perfectly, she didn't miss a shot and captured moments that I otherwise would not have remembered. Her style is unique and really captures the ethereal beauty of a wedding day. What you cannot see from her work is how she manages a wedding day. This woman will be everything you need by your side at your wedding. My veil kept falling off, she pulled the bobby pins from her own hair to keep my veil in place. She knew the timeline of the day and helped us to stay on it. She gracefully kept bridal party stresses off my plate all day. Hannah was 100% present and 100% on top of the day. If you are debating if you want to hire Hannah, just know you are getting not only an incredible photographer but also a person who is willing to be whatever you need to have a stress-free day.

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

Awarded Best of Zola
Honestly, Danielle's stunning work speaks for itself. I have worked for with personally and professionally, and Danielle is absolutely fantastic. She quickly puts her clients at ease and her excitement and enthusiasm makes photos painless and so enjoyable and she consistently delivers beautiful work to her clients. Danielle goes above and beyond to deliver the very best to her clients. I highly recommend Danielle, you won’t be disappointed!

I am an event and wedding photographer, whose greatest joy in life is getting to hear and be a part of so many people's unique stories . No matter what you are looking for, I'm sure I can help to create a portfolio as special as you are! When I'm not shooting or developing film I rock a few other titles such as wife, mother, plant addict, and local restaurant enthusiast! Most importantly, I want everyone I work with to feel valued and celebrated, which is why I will always go the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable and having the perfect photo experience. Let's get to know each other! ​

Working with Amelia was fantastic. I always get nervous having my picture taken, but she brought a calming presence that really put me at ease and helped me relax and just enjoy the day. She was always available to answer any questions and arrived early and organized the day of our wedding. She works quickly and efficiently--we were ahead of schedule. Most importantly, the photos are STUNNING! She really managed to capture how the day felt, and we had trouble deciding which ones we wanted to frame because there were so many fantastic options. I’m so glad we decided to go with Amelia. Highly recommend.

Ashley Benham Photography is all about bold photos for bold love! I'm Ashley and I'm the owner of ABP! A few things about me: I was born and raised here in Memphis, and no matter how much I complain about the heat and mosquitos, the 901 will always be home. My two cats Lana and Lennon are my world, even when they refuse to listen to me (because let’s be real, CATS.) Music is a HUGE part of my life. I’d be lost without it, and love going to shows and supporting local musicians.

Cannot recommend Ashley Benham Photography enough! Not only is she mad talented and knows what she’s doing, but she is a lovely and fun person to be around. She made my husband and me feel so comfortable during both our engagement session and on the wedding day. Both Ashley and her additional photographer, Tate, felt like my besties on the wedding day- they were so helpful and encouraging and really made us feel good. We are absolutely in love with our engagement session pictures and are obsessed with the sneak peek photos Ashley has gotten to us from the wedding. We cannot wait to see the rest of the photos, but we are positive they will be stunning and just what we wanted. Book Ashley! You will not regret it!!!

Jason specializes in both photography and cinematic highlight films, eliminating the hassle of couples searching for multiple vendors. From the Oregon Coast to the Utah mountains, his focus is simple: telling your story authentically.

Choosing Jason as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made. From our very first conversation, it was obvious how excited he was to be a part of our day and how much he cared about making it everything I ever dreamed of. His communication throughout the entire process was exceptional. He was always quick to respond, happily answered any questions I had, and made me feel completely at ease from start to finish. On our wedding day, Jason brought such a positive energy that helped us relax and truly enjoy every moment. From carrying the train of my dress around the whole venue to making sure we actually took a break to sit down, have some water, and eat a snack, Jason went above and beyond to make sure that we were fully taken care of. Jason felt more like a best friend than a vendor. We shared countless laughs throughout the day and created memories that will last us a lifetime. Our family and friends couldn’t stop saying amazing he was! Not only did Jason capture the best day of our lives so perfectly, he also met up with us at Cannon Beach to do an additional photoshoot in our wedding attire. Although it was cold, wet, and windy, we had an absolute blast. Jason embraced every bit of it and got so many incredible photos! You can tell photography isn’t just a job for Jason, it’s truly his passion. He’s a great guy who takes great photos and I couldn’t recommend him enough. We love Jason so much and miss him already!

I believe that EVERY person has something beautiful about them. I am not going to turn you away because you are too short, tall, fat, skinny, ugly. I am also not going to turn you away because you are getting married in a church or a barn or in space (please get married in space). I shoot all of the locations and I show them off proudly. Imperfections are what make my photography beautiful.

Elizabeth is perfection! My husband and I were greatly impressed by her from the initial consultation and now she feels more like extended family. She was so welcoming and made us both so comfortable that it felt like we were experiencing our time with an old friend. We laughed, we cried and we danced and she captured every moment. Our engagement and wedding photos were beautiful and exactly what we envisioned. The time we spent with her is some of the most memorable parts of our wedding experience. Book her for an unforgettable experience!

“Our photographer really took the time to connect with us, and we found that we shared a lot of common interests! She made us feel very comfortable, and completely followed our desires for candid and more relaxed photos. She was amazing at posing and directing us, as well as going with the flow and capturing what was happening in the moment. We couldn’t be more happy! We love all of the photos taken outside- our couples, wedding party, and golden hour photos feel so genuine and organic and I think that’s what our photographer really excelled in. Our golden hour photos specifically are very romantic and magical- definitely our favorites! I cannot give enough praise to the level of communication given during the planning process. Wedding planning is hard and it gets tricky to keep track of everything. From Darcy at the start getting us booked to Hannah throughout the planning process, I was so grateful for the texts and emails keeping me updated and on track. I am very grateful to have found OLAS, and have already recommended them to my friends getting married next year.”

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

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.

My husband and I got married in September in Providence, RI. I knew I wanted a photographer that was bright and colorful because of the venue and vibe of the day. I was nervous I wasn’t going to be able to find someone and would need to settle because I planned our wedding in 4 months. The original photographer I reached out to was not available and gave me Maria’s information. I was excited that she had the availability on such short notice, but once we had our first call with her I knew we had made the right decision and the day was going to be a blast. Communication up to our wedding was precise and clear. When the day came, it felt like we had known Maria and Jackson our entire lives. It was like hanging out with some of our closest friends. They made sure we got all the shots that we wanted, but also still enjoyed every second of the day. We did do a first look so it helped with picture timing but what was considered our cocktail hour (the entire night was cocktail style) they followed us around and took candida and groups when necessary. It was perfect. Not once did we feel like we had taken too many pictures. We got married on a rooftop but they also made sure that we had shots in the city streets and a large variety of locations. When we got our sneak peaks I was truly speechless (and ugly crying). I was absolutely blown away by how PERFECTLY they had captured our day. You could feel the joy radiating from the photos and the colors and clarity was unbelievable. I am still speechless and in awe of how amazing our pictures came out. Our day was absolutely perfect but Maria and Jackson for sure made it memorable with the most breathtaking pictures. They truly tell a story and how fun the entire night was. I look at the photos constantly and I don’t foresee that stopping anytime soon. We get SO many compliments from people about how beautiful they are and everyone asks who the photographer was. I 100000% recommend MTD Photo. Hands down one of the best decisions we could’ve made for the day.

I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

Tooney White Photography

I'm Tooney! I was born and raised in the Philippines and now call Northern California home. I've been a photographer for over a decade, and one of my favorite parts of this work is making people feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I know being photographed doesn't come naturally to everyone, and I don't expect it to. I'll give you direction, fix the stray hair, straighten the outfit, and help you feel like yourself — so you can stop thinking about the camera and enjoy your wedding day.

Run, don’t walk! My husband and I had the most amazing experience working with Tooney. She is incredibly talented, and kind, her warmth radiates into her photography. My husband and I decided to elope with very short notice and she was able to accommodate us even when leaving town for a big gig on the weekend. We also don’t have experience posing much and she was so skilled at giving us direction. But most importantly it just felt like fun! My husband (who hates taking pictures) said “We got the best photographer possible, she made this so fun”. We got our sneak peeks in just 2 days and we are so ecstatic about the gallery we got. We plan to do a bigger celebration with extended family and friends and will absolutely reach out to Tooney again. You’re in great hands with her!
