Ethereal Moments Art

  • Fine art style

  • Serves Hays, NC

My name is Wioletta, but you can call me Viola. I am a professional photographer based in the mountains of North Carolina where I reside with my three children, partner, a Great Pyrenees dog and a Siamese cat. I have a degree in Visual Art, but I have been fascinated by photography since I was 14 years old. I moved to the United States from Poland when I was just 16. I created my first photography business in 2010 where I shot moody and aesthetic self-portraits that I later sold as prints. I also designed logos and CD covers for bands. I created my wedding business, Ethereal Moments Art, in 2018 and ever since it has continued to grow.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace shot our engagement and wedding and was so easy to work with! She was so flexible and worked hard to make sure my husband and I didn’t feel too awkward taking professional photographs for the the first time. Her photo style and editing is beautiful and true and we received so many complements for our engagement shoot. 12/10 would recommend!

I highly recommend Madalina Price Photography as a bride and as a professional wedding & event planner. I first worked with Madalina as a MOH for my best friends wedding in 2020. She did such a wonderful job, that I reached out to her to do my own wedding in 2023. Madalina did a fantastic job not only with our wedding photos, but also with my bridal portraits and boudoir shoot. She even did my professional headshots. Anytime I need photos, I go to Madalina; she is so talented and can truly do it all! All I had to do was show Madalina a photo I liked and she made it happen! Madalina is direct with large groups like bridal party and family, taking the pressure off the bride and groom to make everything perfect, but always kind. Throughout every moment, she was helpful and made me feel very comfortable. This was especially helpful for my bridal portraits and boudoir shoot. I recommend Madalina to all my friends, family, and clients and I look forward to every chance I get to work with her!

Hello & welcome! I’m a film-forward wedding photographer and videographer in Tennessee, capturing real moments and timeless imagery. I blend digital with 35mm film and Kodak Super 8 to create work that feels nostalgic, imperfect, and deeply human. My documentary approach lets the day unfold naturally, preserving the in-between moments that matter most. I’m drawn to experience-focused weddings — intimate gatherings, outdoor celebrations, and days that feel like a meaningful hang with your favorite people.

Hanna captured our elopement and to say she did a perfect job would be an understatement. She was so easy to communicate with and her presence is comfortable and peaceful. Her kindness and love for what she does is apparent as soon as you meet her. I could go on and on; we loved her!! She was the perfect pick for our day and the best decision we made for our elopement, aside from getting married! Her storytelling through our photos and video was spot on, allowing us to relive those emotions and moments, and giving our loved ones a chance to feel and live that day for their first time. It was obviously felt deeply by all. We seriously cannot thank her enough for everything!

Megan Pitts Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Hays, NC

My philosophy is simple... I am here to tell the story of the day you married the love of your life. I want to document the excitement of you getting ready with your best friends, the look on your mother's face when she sees you in your dress for the first time, and the tears your father cries during the father - daughter dance, and that "Oh my God, we are really married?!" look of joy on your faces as you walk down the aisle as a married couple for the first time. I will pose you and guide you when necessary, but I believe when you are focusing on each other and really soaking in those moments --- that's when the magic happens.

Megan was the best photographer we could have ever asked for! She captured every aspect of our wedding day from start to finish. She was on time, communicative, and sent the pictures back in a timely manner. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera and helped pose us when need. She also created our wedding album that came out beautifully!

We have been friends since 2006, married since 2008, and capturing memories through photography since 2010. The years of experience in all three make us uniquely qualified to tell your budding love story. If the years have taught us anything, its that fulfilling, long-lasting marriages have a foundation of friendship, and are built with joy - and perhaps quite a few carbs! We strive to help you feel confident during your big day, and not awkward or stressed - so you can look back on joyful memories that tell your love story.

We had the most amazing experience with Him & Her Photography! Josh and Alisha did both our engagement and wedding photography and went above and beyond from the very beginning. They were so fun to work with and on the wedding day, provided great support for timeline and guidance. They even had our sneak peek pictures ready DURING our reception for guests to view— which both we & the guests were in awe of. I can’t recommend them enough!

Hi! I'm Christin, a destination wedding photographer based in Chattanooga, TN. Specializing in timeless and artful imagery, my expertise goes beyond just taking photos; it's about crafting a visual story that reflects the joy, love, and unique spirit of your celebration.

Working with Christin at Christin Sofka Photography was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding journey. From our very first inquiry to the days following our wedding, Christin has been nothing short of phenomenal—responsive, professional, fun, and such a warm presence throughout. We initially found her because of her stunning photography style, but it was her incredible personality that sealed the deal. From our first call, she genuinely wanted to get to know us—our story, our vibe, our vision—and it showed in everything she did. Before we even officially hired her, Christin was helping us find a venue that aligned with our dream, connecting us with other amazing vendors, and offering support in ways far beyond the role of a photographer. She was in it with us every step of the way. I’m usually awkward in front of a camera, but somehow Christin made it feel effortless and fun. She created an environment where we could just be ourselves—and that joy, love, and personality came through in every photo. Our pictures shine with who we are. Every idea we had, she embraced and brought to life in ways that exceeded our expectations. She was just as excited as we were the entire time—and honestly, I can’t imagine our day without her. Christin is not just a photographer—she’s a true artist, a cheerleader, and a calming, creative force you’ll be so lucky to have by your side. If you’re considering hiring her: do it. You’ll be singing her praises too.

More than anything, I’m a mom and I love it. In fact, I only commit to around twelve weddings per year to ensure I give my family, and my clients, the attention they deserve.

Awarded Best of Zola
From day one our experience with Rivkah was exceptional! I have admired her work for years and always dreamed that she would photograph my wedding one day. When it was time for engagement photos, my fiancé knew how much I loved her work so we booked a session with her. We went to Virginia and not only did we have the best time hanging with her, our photos turned out stunning! There was no question when it came time to book our wedding photographer who it would be. She met with us before the wedding to go over things & just encourage us. The day of the wedding ran so smoothly, her and her assistant not only gave us beautiful photos but they were so helpful too! Every one of our guests commented how kind they were & how it seemed like they got shots of every moment that day. Rivkah is the sweetest, most calming soul which is what you want on such a big day. She brings so much warmth, peace & light to your day while being a friend you can turn to in those big moments. When we received our photos, I didn’t think I could love one more until I saw the next! The photos tell the story of your day/session and are truly magazine worthy. Her work is beautiful and truly could make you cry with how stunning each photo is. She has such a gift & if you get the chance to experience it, do it. You won’t regret it. She made our dreams come true.
