Breana V Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (12 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Iva, SC

I've always held such a high priority on making memories that will last lifetime. This is one of the many reason I started a photography business. Just a little bit about me, I'm 24 years. Married to my high school sweetheart, Noah. We moved to Upstate, SC from our home state of sunny south Florida to start a life as newlyweds. If you are a lover of moody, intimate and timeless photography, let's connect. I would love to work together :)

Awarded Best of Zola
From our engagement session to our wedding day, Breana V Photography made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Her communication is quick and clear, which meant we always knew what to expect and felt confident in our decisions. What really stood out was how thoughtful she was about capturing the details that mattered most to us—especially making sure the sewn hearts from my grandparents shirts on my dress were featured in our wedding photos. The images she delivered are dreamy and etheral feeling, and we loved having so many beautiful options to choose from, plus the option of film photos. Her work was absolutely worth the value, and we can't recommend her enough to couples looking for a photographer who genuinely cares about making your day special.

Your wedding day only happens once, and it deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt. At KAM Collectives, we are a full-service photography and videography team capturing every laugh, tear, and unforgettable moment. We blend fine art style with a photojournalistic eye, giving you stunning portraits, cinematic video, and all the little moments that make your day uniquely yours. We tell your story and have a blast doing it.

Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, working with this photography and videography team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The quality of both our photos and video is absolutely incredible—every image is crisp, beautifully edited, and truly captures the emotion of the day. They didn’t miss a single moment. We received so many photos, and not just duplicates—every possible angle, reaction, and detail was thoughtfully captured. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the entire day from beginning to end. What really set them apart was how much they helped before the wedding even started. They worked with us to create a realistic, well-organized timeline that ensured we could fit everything in without feeling rushed or stressed. That guidance was invaluable and made the entire day flow seamlessly. They also came prepared with tons of inspiration photos and creative pose ideas, which was amazing—especially for those moments when we weren’t sure what to do. They made posing feel natural, fun, and never awkward. Beyond their talent, they are genuinely some of the sweetest people you will ever work with. They were calming, encouraging, and such a positive presence throughout the entire day. They made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and truly felt like friends celebrating alongside us rather than just vendors doing a job. If you are looking for a photography and videography team that is incredibly talented, organized, creative, and kind, look no further. We are beyond grateful for them and will cherish these photos and videos for the rest of our lives. We cannot recommend them enough!

Terrell Martin Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Iva, SC

My name is Terrell Martin, and I am based in upstate SC. I have always enjoyed photography because it is the one way I am able to seemingly pause time, and capture a moment that is sure to only happen once. These moments are what make the memories you will one day cherish and share with your loved ones. When I take photographs, I’m not merely thinking about the “here and now.” I’m imagining generations down the the road being told your story through snapshots. This is why I strive to create timeless images. I prefer a style that is true to color, making every attempt to avoid trendy edits that won’t age well.

I want to be that friend with a camera, or that family member who happens to take pictures. I want to take a seat in your life, from the time I photograph your wedding to a few years down the road photographing your family. Every moment, every smile, every joyous occasion, and even the hard times, I want to photograph that story; your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not say enough great things about this incredible woman! She is kind, funny, and scary good at her job! You would have thought she had 5-6 shooters at the event with the amount of photos she was able to get! We used her for our engagement and wedding and everything was perfect. My husband and I are not big picture takers and Brett was able to make us feel comfortable and get Austin out of his shell! I will recommend Brett to anyone in need of a fun, energetic photographer and she will be my first call if I ever need one again! I can't even begin the count the number of complements I received from guests regarding her! She was also the first vendor we booked -- she helped us with useful advice on other vendors and was just heavenly throughout the entire processes! I am obsessed with her 3

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

We could not be happier with our experience with Maria from MTD Photo Co. She photographed our entire wedding weekend, including our welcome party and the full wedding day, and truly exceeded every expectation. Maria was professional, warm, and so easy to work with from start to finish. We were blown away by how quickly everything was delivered — we received a sneak peek gallery within a week of the wedding and our full gallery just one month later. Every single photo is absolutely beautiful, and we are genuinely in awe of her work. She captured the emotions, the details, and all the special moments so perfectly. Her second photographer, Jackson, was equally wonderful — incredibly helpful, friendly, and professional throughout the entire weekend. Together, they made us feel comfortable and confident, and it truly shows in the photos. We are so grateful to have these memories so beautifully documented and cannot recommend Maria and MTD Photo Co. highly enough.

We were recently married in June and had McKenna as our photographer and absolutely LOVED her work!! First off, communication was so easy throughout the whole process. She was so sweet and accommodating to everything. We did our engagement photos with her and she drove all the way from Charlotte to Duke! Leading up to the wedding, we had a few phone calls to plan logistics and she was so organized it make the whole process so easy! On the wedding day I didn’t have to worry about anything photo related. She made sure to capture every moment we wanted without putting any added stress on us.

I chose not to have a videographer for my wedding, and had it covered only by photography. I sit here now, barely two weeks out from my wedding, already enjoying my entire wedding photo gallery from these amazing photographers that captured every detail as if they were using video recorders instead! Not only did they guarentee quick turn around on my photos (I think their words were "before you're back from your honeymoon") but the quality of work speaks for itself in the photos. They were such an joy to work with- often splitting up to cover ground and their easy banter with each other puts you right at ease when they're pointing those big cameras at you. I will never be able to thank them enough for making our day so special, and I'll enjoy it with their photos for the rest of our days.

Capturing weddings as they unfold rather than directing how they should feel. My approach is quiet and observant — present enough to anticipate moments, but never interrupt them. The day moves naturally, and the images follow.

Awarded Best of Zola
After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. 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. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

Lee and his team are an absolute blessing to have on your wedding day. I found them through the Knot.com. I instatntly fell in love with his style of photography. Not only that but when we were first looking for photographers Lee called me and we spike for an hour and a half about expectations and whay kind of wedding etc. No other photographer i looked at did this, I really appreciated the time he took out of his day to spend talking to us. Fast forward to wedding day Lee and his team made us super comfortable and helped to make our wedding magical. Lee is so easy to work with and definitely knows how to get shy couples out of their comfort zone. Lee not only helped capture our wedding but also us as a couple with an engagement shoot as well. I have never felt so comfortable around a photographer before. Not only is he amazing to work with but his work is equally as amazing. I absolutely love every single one of my pictures and cannot pick a favorite. Not only are the pictures amazing we got our sneak peeks back the same day! It wasn't just 1 or 2 pictures either it was an entire album. That was an absolutely amazing surprise to wake up to the next morning. I would recommend Alchemist Weddings for any event you may have! We will definitely be using him for photos in the future. Much thanks and gratitude, Claire and Bobby Olsen

I focus on real moments and natural storytelling so couples can stay present and enjoy their day. My approach blends documentary coverage with gentle guidance, never forced or rushed. The goal is imagery that still feels honest and meaningful years later.

Levar Hage Photography was a wonderful choice for our wedding videography. From our first interaction, Levar and his team were polite and respectful in their communication style. On the day of the wedding, they were efficient, on task, and captured all the important moments that made our day so special. Levar had lots of cool equipment that allowed him to get great shots of the big moments, and he was an absolute professional throughout. We would highly recommend Levar Hage Photography to any couple looking for a talented and nice dude to capture their wedding day.
