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.

They were always on time and made sure to put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly outstanding - the photos and videos they captured were beautiful, exciting, and incredibly creative.

I shot my first wedding July 2007 on eight days notice for a family friend. It was exhilarating. I fell in love with documenting and creating memories for my first bride and groom, Nicki & Jay. They loved my work. I found my professional calling. In 2009, I opened the business and started officially offering my services as a professional Atlanta wedding photographer. Since then, I’ve prided myself on caring about your special day more than any other vendor participating in your wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Danielle was so much fun to work with for my surprise engagement at Chateau Elan! The photos turned out absolutely wonderful. She captured our personalities beautifully, and the quality was above and beyond. We were also thrilled that she was able to take so many photos with our family and friends who were with us that day as well. I was so shocked by the proposal that I kept wiping the tears off my face, but she was quick to step in and help me wipe my face without losing all my makeup! We were in a slight rush to make it to a surprise dinner that my fiancee set up, but she was able to take us to all the best spots within a limited time frame. She also did a great job at suggesting poses that were comfortable for both of us. Dani is awesome and I couldn't recommend her more for your surprise engagement! :)

Tyler Gets Weird

After getting out of the Marine Corps and photographing weddings for a larger "big box" company, I decided I wanted my own brand that really connects and cares about the couples I work with. Since then, I have been fortunate to document so many stories. I am a very "unprofessional professional". I love to have a good time and I embrace weirdness (will do your wedding for free if you're wearing all denim) but at the same time I also am very Type A; I love a good spreadsheet, I'm punctual, and I will always advocate and/or problem solve for my couples on wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tyler was absolutely amazing! He was so helpful with all of our questions and helping us with ideas, and even helped out with a good bit of our timeline planning and day of coordinating! We were so grateful for his expertise and fun energy. Our photos turned out amazing and we had a great experience throughout!

"I'm a witness of Life in its best moments" Hi, I'm Nacho! A professional Photographer seeking beauty and real life moments, I help nervous & shy couples relax and enjoy their day. First, I am a kind person. Then, a skilled seeker of unforgettable memories. I am the one who appreciates the smallest details. I am the witness of life in its best versions and the custodian of the fact that everything was real. This is me, Nacho! The fortunate stranger who today has the pleasure of saying that he captures love where others only see a simple wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hands down the best wedding decision we made was hiring Nacho - and my husband says it all the time! Nacho is incredibly talented at getting the perfect shots but his service is so much more than his photography. He seamlessly fits whatever role is needed in the moment - handling stressful family situations, helping navigate busy timelines, keeping things moving and bringing a genuine “good energy” to the day. He showed up as our photographer but ended the day as everyone’s favorite person. My 4 year old niece still asks about him every day! He leaves a lasting impression and his photos truly capture every moment and emotion that we all want to remember from our wedding days. (Side note: he is very talented at understanding lighting and I’m blown away at how well he captured the natural sunlight during golden hour.) I am beyond thankful that we hired Nacho and highly recommend him for any event or wedding. Extra: Our photography package included an engagement shoot. However, on the day of the shoot a hurricane came through Florida and we had to cancel so Nacho offered us a photo book after the wedding. And let me tell you, this photo book isn’t just any photo book. The quality is unlike anything I have seen. It truly is an heirloom-quality memory book with thick, archival cardstock pages. I highly encourage you to add on Nacho’s photo books if you can!

From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful.

I'm Mary! My daytime job is being a mama to twin boys- I'd like to think I'm a cool mom. I love to work with my clients because I understand that not everyone is comfortable in front of the camera. I tend to gravitate towards the back of the camera instead of having my own photo taken. This has helped me to work with individuals on comfort and feeling natural having their photo taken. One of my main priorities (besides producing quality work) is making sure the photo experience is fun and personalized.​ I find joy in what I do and would love to be there for you and capture the real, raw, and sometimes weird feelings.

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

Manai was so communicative. We started with a nearly 2 hour video call. He was so good about making sure he understood our vision. We had several emails afterwards to get his help with our schedule and other vendors. We had a final 1 hour call just before the wedding to finalize all of the details. 10 out of 10. Manai knows his stuff and it felt good on the day of my wedding realizing we hired the right person. He pretty much knew everything that was happening even before it happened. I'm a pretty anxious person so it was nice having someone to kind of help guide the day along. Thank you Manai! Wishing you so much success. You deserve it!
