The Best Photojournalistic Wedding Photographers in Hayes, VA

Hello!! I am Camille! I am passionate about preserving every moment from your special day - particularly those intimate moments of togetherness amid the crazy! ❤️ I am an introvert and more on the quiet side, but I can wrangle a crowd if I need to. 😉 If you like goofy comedies, folk and pop music, and loving people how Jesus does, we'll get along just perfectly! I accept everyone and take nothing too seriously! I prefer to capture everyone in sweet and candid looking moments rather than being traditionally posed but I do a bit of both! I would love to get to know you and your future spouse - just send me a message any time!

Hello! I am Joy, a Yorktown, Virginia-based wedding photographer. I absolutely love capturing the joy between couples in love who value documenting the timeless moments of their lives, knowing that the images I create will become part of the legacy in their family. Your wedding images will last long beyond your wedding day, serving as a reminder of the love you have for one another.

Hey there! I am Elizabeth, the owner & head photographer of Elizabeth Yanna Photography. I am a couples photographer located out of Coastal Virginia, but I am always up for adventure and travel to wherever your love grows. My editing style is considered "warm and moody" with a photojournalistic twist. You can expect prompts over poses and lots of movement and interaction with your partner, instead of stiff posing and "eye contact" with the camera. I have often been told that I have a way with working quietly and quickly, as to not distract the spotlight of your day from... well, YOU!

My excited, caring and spunky with a side of ‘hell yeah’ personality makes people feel comfortable, protected and loved. I meet people, hug them within seconds and it’s not awkward. Also, catch me slingin' jokes and dancing while I work or just on a Tuesday. I started my business three years ago, since then I've captured 102 weddings and over 200 couples, I can't image doing anything else! I’m married to Alex, love of my life, cat-doggy daddy, and muse. We fell in love after I called him a loser the moment we met. Since then we've lived in Hawaii, traveled the world and added two fur babies!

Hi! My name is LaDonna, and all things photography related have stolen my heart. I thrive on providing quality, desirable, memorable images to clients. Showcasing the littlest details - the short hugs, the cheeky grins or even just a bat of an eye - it it my sincerest passion.

Being new to the Virginia wedding scene, I'm excited to connect with local couples to create timeless imagery that celebrates the area but most importantly, your love story. I take great care in capturing every moment as it naturally unfolds- focusing on the raw emotion, true-to-color tones, and the real atmosphere of your day. My approach is very documentary style, allowing me to preserve the honest beauty of your celebration without heavy editing or overposing. Each image is carefully crafted to reflect the story you tell so that when you look back, it feels exactly how it did in the moment.

A former newspaper photographer & editor, I truly love to capture authentic moments as they happen - commonly known as lifestyle photography. My favorite photos are storytelling moments filled with happiness & love. I'm also a sucker for gorgeous light, sunsets, trees, and ALL naturally beautiful outdoor settings. I'm a bit of a romantic and LOVE catching those in between funny moments when no one thinks I'm watching. My Client for Life program evolved when so many couples came back to me for newborn and family sessions - I LOVE building that relationship and becoming "their" photographer for life.

Hey! I'm Valerie. I spend most of my weekends as a creative Virginia wedding photographer, but I also shoot a ton of documentary lifestyle portraits and spend the weekdays photographing small-business marketing content for clients throughout Virginia and DC. I believe in honest portraiture, which basically means capturing YOU, your family, or your business in ways that legitimately feel real. I always want people to feel like they know you when they see an image. Forget the stereotypes of what it's supposed to be. Let's just make real images with real smiles in real situations in real places that matter.

For 20 years I’ve had the privilege of documenting love stories in more than ten countries, capturing weddings rich with emotion and once-in-a-lifetime moments. I’m now happily settled in Williamsburg and throughout Central Virginia, where I balance my passion for photography with life as a proud mom to my feisty young daughter. Weddings still light me up the same way they did on day one—the passion, the quiet, sweet glances, the joyful chaos on the dance floor, the deep, unspoken connection between two people promising forever.
