Holly Bee Photography

Grottoes, VA
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,250

Hi, I’m Holly — a wife, a mom of four, and the heart behind Holly Bee Photography. My love for photography began when my kids were little and life was moving just a little too fast. I picked up a camera to freeze those fleeting moments, and I’ve been chasing beautiful golden light ever since. I strive to create a space where everyone feels seen, welcome, and celebrated. Inclusivity is at the core of my work, and it’s important to me that every family, couple, and individual feels at home in front of my lens.

Holly Bee Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From our very first interaction, Holly was prompt in her communication, kind in her demeanor, and enthusiastic about capturing our special day. Her professional, quick, and personal approach to photography resulted in stunning images that perfectly encapsulate all the moments we wanted to remember. Holly even managed to capture an unexpected and delightful moment when we ended up saving a bird during the wedding. Her ability to be in the right place at the right time is truly impressive. We were thrilled with the quality of our photos and Holly made sure everything was executed exactly as we had envisioned. I would wholeheartedly recommend Holly Bee Photography to any couple planning their wedding.

Filmmaking has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in Cinema. However, it wasn't until I started filming weddings that I really fell in love with filmmaking. Being able to film couples at such a pivotal moment in their lives that is often filled with immense love is so fulfilling, gratifying and such an honor to be a part of.

It was a great pleasure to work with Jackie throughout our wedding planning process. Not being from the area, Jackie was invaluable in recommending and coordinating with great local vendors. She was so helpful coordinating each piece of our wedding weekend remotely - she struck a great balance as a calming presence throughout planning yet eager to go to bat for us when things needed to get done yesterday. On the wedding weekend, Jackie was so dedicated to make it a success for us. Beyond being a great presence and executing our schedule the entire weekend, she took on arranging and setup of the flowers and decorations, running setup and tear down of the venue as we danced, even volunteering to bake hundreds of pastries for our brunch the next morning. She truly went beyond our expectations of a coordinator and I'd happily recommend her to anyone getting married in the Shenandoah area.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with our florist was an absolute pleasure. When we first met, I was envisioning soft, neutral florals. As our wedding plans evolved, I completely changed direction and decided to go with bold, vibrant blues and oranges instead. She embraced the new vision without hesitation and executed it flawlessly. The final arrangements were even more beautiful than I imagined. Every bouquet, centerpiece, and floral detail perfectly matched our style and brought so much life and personality to our wedding day. She truly understood my vision and made it a reality. One of the things I appreciated most was her commitment to sustainability. She connected us with an organization that repurposes wedding flowers so they could continue bringing joy to others instead of being thrown away after the event. That meant so much to us and was such a thoughtful service to offer. If you're looking for a florist who is incredibly talented, flexible, and genuinely cares about both her couples and the impact of her work, I couldn't recommend her more highly.

I used Proi to provide coffee for my book launch event, and I'm so glad I did. Not only were their on-demand, made-to-order specialty coffees delicious (I had four cups myself) but Grant, Maria, and Noel were super friendly and engaging! They interacted with my event guests and there was always laughter and conversation around the coffee cart. Also, they worked with me to craft a custom flavor for my event, which gave it an extra personal touch! The event was so much better with them there, and I will absolutely use them in the future for more events.

Booking a wedding venue can be overwhelming and confusing, but Stover Hall is an easy choice. When my now husband and I toured this venue, we were so excited. It mixes barn style and winery style, with a classy yet homey feel to it. The owners/operators are incredibly kind and were happy to answer any questions we had about not only the venue, but wedding planning as well. My wedding was 04/12/26 and the weather was perfect, the cows were saying hi to our guests, and there were beautiful flowering trees near the arbor which made for picture perfect settings. Everything about this venue is top notch, from amenities to the people running it. I could go on and on. There’s not one spot on this property that doesn’t allow for beautiful pictures and the best flow. If I could get married (to the same man obviously) again and again, I wouldn’t do it anywhere else but here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Many amazing qualities - from the sustainable use of in-season plants, aromatic plants, and willingness to help transform bridesmaids bouquets to center-pieces post ceremony, I couldn't recommend Honeysuckle Farm enough. What I appreciated even more was her flexibility in working with my budget - while several florists in the area turned me down when I wasn't able to meet larger minimums, Honeysuckle Farms listened to my priorities list and crafted an offer tailored to what I most wanted. Totally transparent pricing and high-quality work. Florals were not my priority, so we didn't communicate too frequently. When we did speak Honeysuckle was kind, considerate, and showed she was thoughtful and deliberate in questions/responses. I think the communication quantity would have changed if I had more specific requests or a larger purchase. My jaw DROPPED when I saw the wedding arch she made for me. This was far beyond my wildest dreams and (I felt) a REALLY good price. Would recommend Honeysuckle to anyone, but particularly for folks who aren't looking to spend 5k for bouquets and basics***(obviously pricing is based on market and seasonality).

As someone who was raised right here in the Shenandoah Valley, amongst the warm and rolling blue-ridged mountains, the beauty in little things became very easy for me to identify.

Which brings me to today, where I am forever spending my days in love with watching people walk through their journey in this world. told ya i was sentimental...

Seriously this was one of our best decisions in wedding planning. This venue has it ALL! We were looking for mountain views, outdoor ceremony with indoor reception, bring your own beer/booze (with hired legal bartender and correct licensing), bring your own food with no additional charge, on-site his&hers changing rooms, enough room for 100 people with a dance floor, and a cute cabin vibe. Not only did Faithbrooke meet all our requirements, it blew our expectations away! Faithbrooke is pretty much the only affordable, reasonable venue left in the greater DC/Shenandoah area that still is absolutely gorgeous and appears very high-end. The best part was Cort's kind, attentive, responsive customer service. He was truly incredible to work with, always easy to reach (which was so important), and worked with any special circumstances we had. They are more than accommodating here, so don't wait....seriously....book with Faithbrooke!!!!!

I got married here last weekend, and I’m still emotionally recovering in the best way. The team at Luray Caverns (Stephanie Beahm, Naomi Alger, and Katherine Dallas) somehow managed to keep everything running smoothly while I was one minor inconvenience away from spiraling into full goblin mode. From the start, they made us feel genuinely special (not the fake “you’re special” everyone gets but like, actually special). They helped us move our things in early, communicated every step of the way, and answered my numerous questions without ever making me feel like I was testing their will to live. Which, frankly, is impressive. When our car keys mysteriously vanished (because of course they did), the team literally drove us to the reception without hesitation. They got a wheelchair for an elderly grandparent of the groom, handled logistics like pros, and never once made us feel like a burden. Even though I would have absolutely understood if they had gently escorted me into the woods at some point like old yeller to put me out of my misery. When I expressed disappointment of the rain and the change to our rain plan, they reassured me and also complimented me on the day and asked what they could do to help even though, trust me, they had helped enough! They also helped decorate, set up, and even supported my day-of coordinator to make her job easier. Basically, they were everywhere, doing everything, all at once: like a calm, hyper-competent wedding Avengers team. What really stood out was how much they cared about the tiny details. They remembered things I forgot I even mentioned and executed everything flawlessly. Naomi, in particular, went above and beyond. She was literally getting married the weekend after us and still treated our wedding like it was the only one that mattered. I don’t even have that level of commitment to my own life. Stephanie had a similar accent to mine and was hilarious and definitely kept me laughing when I wanted to cry. Katherine was level headed and reassuring and kept me calm. They all worked so beautifully together for us. I haven’t stopped bragging about them. Guests are still telling us how incredible everything was, and a huge part of that is thanks to this team. They made us feel treasured, unique, and completely taken care of and that is something that is shockingly rare in this business. If you’re even thinking about getting married here, just do it. Seriously. Save yourself the stress, the second-guessing, and the potential descent into madness. This team is the best of the best, and they gave us more than we ever expected from a venue or honestly even what we thought was possible.

Massanutten Creek was the perfect setting for our wedding! The venue was absolutely beautiful, with stunning mountain views and an incredible upper and lower barn space. From the very beginning, the owners Alan and Rita were awesome to work with - their communication was quick, flexible, and they were always there to help when we needed it! The value of this venue was incredible too - we were able to book the space for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, all for one price, which was extremely reasonable for everything included. They even provided golf cart shuttles to help our guests get around with ease. We loved the fun, open vibe of Massanutten Creek, and it was the ideal backdrop for our special day. I would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful, extremely affordable mountain wedding - it's definitely worth the money!

My wife and I are incredibly blessed to have this location as our wedding venue! Ashly went above and beyond throughout the entire process. She not only coordinates the venue, but we also chose her as our caterer. The food was delicious (I still think about those deviled eggs) and she provided more than enough food for our size group. We also chose the day-of coordinator through Ashly, Nelly, to ensure everything went smoothly— and it truly was perfect. I can’t recommend this venue enough, especially for a group around 50-70 folks. All involved parties were incredibly communicative and made our day so special. Not to mention, the beautiful mountains on all sides (we got married in mid-April and couldn’t have asked for better weather). As an LBGT friendly venue, we highly suggest this venue to anyone. I’ve included pictures to highlight the interior and exterior of the location. Thank you, Ashly & Nelly (and Chris)! We can’t thank you enough.

Christina and her team were a dream to work with! We didn’t have a specific vision in mind and she helped us create the perfect, most elegant atmosphere for our venue. One of our biggest concerns was bringing in decor that would clash with our historic venue that had some bold design choices of its own. We asked for a neutral color palate and Christina delivered. The flowers were beautiful and the lush roses and greenery brought dimensionality to the arrangements that I didn’t know I wanted. All of our guests complimented the arrangements. We would highly recommend Christina and her team to our friends and family.

The Photography Mrs were absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, they were so easy to work with and made the entire experience stress-free. They photographed both our engagement session and our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with the experience from start to finish. On our wedding day, they were incredibly organized and did an amazing job keeping everything on schedule while still making the day feel relaxed and enjoyable. They paid close attention to every detail, making sure all of the special moments and little touches we worked so hard to plan were beautifully captured. The photos turned out even better than we could have imagined, and we'll treasure them forever. They were professional, kind, and such a joy to have with us throughout the day. We couldn't recommend them more highly to any couple looking for photographers who truly care about their clients and their work!

For the earthy and whimsical type 🌿 My style is inspired by fine art, nature, and genuine human connection. I feel most at home among the trees and moss ❤️ I drink way too much coffee to keep up with my young kids and never skip a beach boys song. I love to create, and I love that I can do that for a living, experiencing your love stories and meeting so many beautiful people ❤️❤️

I cannot recommend Teresa enough!! She took my wedding on fresh into the game and absolutely killed it! I still look through these photos every day to think about my wedding and it's been 3 years. She candidly captured so many special memories and had such a great attitude through the looooong day I dragged her through. Do yourself a favor and hire her. If i could i would giver her 10 stars!!

Paul Hairston Films 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Grottoes, VA

Paul Hairston is an award winning and nation-wide wedding, documentary and commercial filmmaker for over 13 years. He loves anything and everything about human storytelling and creating impact through the medium of film. He strives to capture your special day with earnestness, trust and top shelf visuals. Throughout his career he has worked to blend vérité filmmaking with a production value those stories and emotions deserve, while never getting in your way. Providing painterly and elegant coverage with an unobtrusive but attentive presence that documents every unique detail is Paul’s goal with every film.

Paul and his assistant were absolutely amazing. I actually found him when googling videographers in my area and LOVED all his work as I could tell he took true pride in his films and caught all the little details of the weddings he videoed. When setting up a meeting, I realized he actually lived 4 hours away from me... BUT that didn't stop him! He was willing to travel with his assistant for a VERY cheap price and was there the whole time. He actually asked ME if he could come earlier to ensure he got all the little details on camera and capture every minute of us getting ready, etc. He was quick to respond throughout the whole planning process prior to the big day as well. Paul was in school for cinematography at the time which is very evident in his work as you can tell that film is his true passion in life through his work. We had no idea he was even there and he stayed until the very end (little did I know) to ensure he captured everything on film. As most brides (and grooms) do, we put a LOT of planning into our big days and a lot of thought into every single little detail. Of course your own wedding day is such a blur you never even get to appreciate all your hard work... but thanks to Paul, I am able to see every little part of the wedding from the place settings to all the little signs we had everywhere. He did an amazing job capturing every moment and I love my highlight film. Thanks to him, I get to witness and relive what was my dream wedding over and over again... I knew I wanted to hire him when his highlight films of complete strangers brought me to tears! He is now videoing my brother's wedding and a family friends... So Yes.... I HIGHLY recommend him :)"

Kristy Good Photography

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Grottoes, VA

I’ve been practicing photography in one form or another for nearly 20 years, alongside a background in graphic design and a bachelor’s degree in art. I don’t approach weddings as a checklist to complete, but as a whole experience to observe and capture creatively. I consider myself an artist as much as a photographer–light, composition, atmosphere, and emotion matter to me just as much as the moments themselves.

Kristy is always wonderful to work with! She has taken many pictures of me and my family. She makes the experience fun and easy going. Kristy is great about getting the pictures back quick and every single photo always looks amazing! She is truly one of the best!
