Love Knot Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (27 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Harkers Island, NC

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

Every wedding has its own rhythm. I photograph it with a cinematic approach shaped by authentic 35mm and 120 film, using each format for the way it naturally renders a moment. I’m drawn to the things that make photographs feel lived-in rather than manufactured — atmosphere, movement, connection, imperfect light, grain, texture, and the fleeting moments that happen between the planned ones. I don’t force the day into a shot list or manufacture moments; I move with what’s already unfolding, knowing when to give direction and when to simply let the scene breathe.

Awarded Best of Zola
Caz was VERY professional, very kind. He had a vision that aligned so so perfectly with ours. I LOVE his approach towards photos, that he captures genuine moments not posed photos. We took around an hour of actual posed photos and after that he was in the background, you would catch a glimpse of him taking photos from around the room and let me tell you WHEN I GOT OUR PHOTOS BACK I WAS SHOCKED!!! They were absolutely stunning. He was so so kind and so so amazing, at a very reasonable price. I would give him more stars if I could.

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.

From the first time we connected with Now And Forever Photography, their communication was quick and thorough. The quality of their work was exquisite - the photos they captured of our wedding day were absolutely amazing and beautiful. They did an incredible job of capturing all the key moments, from the ceremony to the reception, and truly documented every important detail of our special day. We feel so lucky to have had them as our photographers, and they did an absolutely amazing job that we will cherish forever.

Your wedding photos should feel like your wedding, not a photoshoot with a wedding squeezed in. I love the editorial, frame-worthy portraits just as much as anyone, but the moments I'm really chasing are the ones you didn't even realize happened. The deep breath before you walk down the aisle. Your grandma absolutely tearing it up on the dance floor. Your partner looking at you like they just won the lottery. Those are the photos that somehow become everyone's favorites.

She is an insanely gifted photographer who brought our wedding day to life in a way I could’ve only dreamed of. She was such a kind and comforting presence throughout the entire process leading up to and during our wedding day. Her eye for things might be incredible, but so are her dance moves. She will capture YOU as a couple, as an individual, and will show what makes you special. I cannot recommend her enough!!

King is seriously a dream to work with! From the first time we talked, we just knew they were the right choice. He’s so down-to-earth and made us feel totally at ease, which was huge because neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera. He helped us with posing when we needed it (thank you for making us look like we knew what we were doing!), but also just let us be ourselves, which resulted in the most natural, beautiful photos. He totally captured the vibe of our day, especially the reception. The energy, the laughter, the dancing—everything was perfectly documented. We couldn’t have asked for better photos that really tell the story of our celebration. We’re beyond happy with how everything turned out!

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do we even begin? Choosing Dakotah as our photographer was hands down the best investment we made for our wedding. From our very first engagement shoot in the spring, she absolutely wowed us. She made us look and feel incredible — we’ve never felt more gorgeous or more like ourselves. We still look at those photos every single day and can’t get over how stunning they are. When the wedding day came (complete with rain and all!), Dakotah, Jim, and Anderson rolled with every twist and turn with total grace and humor. They made the entire day feel effortless. Dakotah and Jim are warm, funny, and make everyone around them feel comfortable and confident — including all of our guests. Anderson was amazing as the second photographer, helping capture every detail and moment we might have missed. The way this team works together is seamless. Dakotah’s direction and creativity are unmatched, and Jim’s presence behind the camera adds so much calm and fun to the day. We could truly feel how much they care about their couples — they listen, they adapt, and they help with absolutely everything. What started as a vendor relationship has truly turned into a friendship. I’ve never been more excited to get photos or messages from someone because I know whatever Dakotah and Jim create is going to be magic. Every single time, they blow us away. If you’re debating whether to book them, don’t wait another second — invest in them. You will not regret it. They are simply the best, and we cannot recommend them enough.

Based on the East Coast and photographing weddings in Washington DC, New York City, Virginia, and destination locations worldwide, Kathleen serves couples who value legacy, style, and a calm, grounded presence on their wedding day.

We cannot recommend Kathleen enough! Our wedding included three different locations - a ceremony in the mountains, a reception indoors in a restaurant, and an after party downtown, as well as getting ready at a parent’s. Kathleen went out of her way to go to each location, and shot incredible photos, even though each location required different settings and expertise. She was fantastic at directing and wrangling family members and friends, and provided advice on the best location for photos. She is a wonderful person, and got along with everyone so well, going out of her way to provide mints and tissues. Kathleen knows when it’s important to take charge and when to step back, and she also let us flag her down for specific photos with friends and family members. Prior to the wedding, she was also incredibly professional, with a helpful website, structured planning meetings, and thorough contract. Most importantly, we got our sneak peak photos the next day, and they are STUNNING - she captured so many details, intimate moments, and thoughtful shots. Her process is clearly intentional, and the outcome has made us misty eyed! DO NOT HESITATE to hire this incredible woman!!!
