Eric Turner Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Kinston, AL for additional fees

Hey there! I'm Eric, an outdoor-loving, laid-back wedding photographer based in the Midwest who lives for capturing those real, unfiltered moments that make each love story unique. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll probably find me hiking trails or discovering new local breweries. My approach blends documentary-style storytelling with a touch of editorial flair—meaning I'll capture both those candid laughs during toasts and those naturally romantic moments during golden hour. The best photos happen when couples feel completely at ease and free to be themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Eric was an absolute pleasure! His communication was excellent throughout the process, and his friendly personality made us feel completely at ease. His creative vision and talent for capturing genuine moments of joy gave us exactly what we were hoping for. We'd definitely choose to work with him again!

We’re Anton & Natalie - your new adventure buddies! On our first date we spent the day doing what we love most, getting outside. That’s also how we spent our wedding day, and most other significant, life-altering moments in our relationship. We fundamentally believe that the best day of your life should be spent doing what makes your heart sing. You’re not here because you don’t care about your day, you’re here because you care more. You don’t want the ordinary and traditional. You want care more about experiences rather than material possessions. You want the authentic, intimate, and intentional day which focuses on YOU as a couple.

Natalie is an absolute dream to work with. She is professional, accommodating and phenomenal at what she does! A truly fun and wonderfully kind human Natalie went above and beyond for us on our wedding day! We had some last minute adjustments and she rolled with each and every change like it was part of the original plan. Her communication and timeline coordination was impeccable which left me feeling so relaxed and at ease with the process that when she showed up on wedding day it was more like welcoming a guest. Myself and my husband are not natural picture takers or posers for that matter-- the camera only comes out if someone else is around. And Natalie was the best person with a camera that we could've ever met! She made it so that we got to just be ourselves walking around, hanging out together and her creativity and skill made it so we got some of our favorite shots ever! She found the most unique, loving and entertaining, moments/frames and captured a days worth of memories that we will cherish forever. I could not have been more grateful to have found such an outstanding photographer who has such a commitment, passion and love for her work and clients. Thank- you!

Hey there, I'm Chris! I'm not your average wedding photographer—I'm here to make sure your images make your heart skip a beat even years down the line. My goal? To capture your big day in a way that fills you with all the feels, every time you look at those photos. I'm all about having a blast and creating memories that will make you smile from ear to ear. Weddings are all about love, laughter, and those precious moments that take your breath away. And guess what? I'm on a mission to freeze those incredible, candid instants so you can relive them over and over again.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chris with Shipwrecked Creative helped capture our wedding day perfectly! The planning before the wedding was quite rushed as we booked just few months before the big day, but he helped coordinate our meetings and plan everything out, so we were on the same page. He was very responsive and detailed with everything. The questionnaire he sent us made it super easy to give him all the right information, so he didn’t need to ask 100 questions on the phone or via email. We had a very rainy day with few moments that the sun was shining. Chris helped us capture every moment perfectly. He guided our poses so it wasn’t awkward or unnatural, kept us laughing along the way, and helped us coordinate our timeline to fit in all our family photos, sunset photos (that miraculously worked out with the weather!) and portrait shots that we wanted of our big day. Between the chaos of the wedding in general and the crappy weather, Chris helped us really make our day special, even trekking out in the mud and rain to get some amazing sunset shots! I highly recommend Chris and his team at Shipwrecked Creative. Couldn’t ask for a better team!

I found Kate after another makeup artist canceled last minute. Not only was she quick to respond & so gracious, but she was even more talented than I could have hoped for. She listened to exactly what I was asking for & delivered perfection. I really wanted to feel like myself with just a little extra flourish. Halfway through, I got a little emotional from the stress of the wedding and some family drama. Kate was so kind and sweet, and took the time to make me feel seen and relaxed.

If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about so much more than just hiring a professional to take your photos - it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your special day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!

Awarded Best of Zola
Faith is one of the most intentional people I’ve met — she was there every step of the way during wedding planning to support us and provided so much comfort and overall good vibes on the day of! I felt so at ease the entire wedding day, and I credit that to our incredible vendor team, Faith and her team included. I received so many sneak peek pics just under a week after my wedding (a few I got almost immediately!!), and it was amazing to be able to relive those moments already and share them with friends and family. Seeing how she captured these moments, big and small, makes me SO excited to see the final gallery!!! Her editing style is simply gorgeous — it was the main reason I reached out to her initially — but she’s also just a wonderful friend and human. When you already feel like you know someone, it makes it so much easier to be your authentic selves in front of the camera, and for that to shine through in photos. We both have so much love for Faith and are forever grateful she was there to document the beginning of the newest chapter of our love story

J. Francis Florals

  • Florist
  • Serves Kinston, AL for additional fees

I find inspiration in the diverse environments surrounding me. Hailing from the Philippines as an immigrant, I bring a multifaceted perspective to my craft, shaped by my personal journey and cultural heritage. Grounded in a diverse educational background encompassing art, architecture, and interior design, I approach floral design with the mindset of an artist, endeavoring to craft arrangements that transcend mere decoration, transforming spaces into immersive experiences.

Our wedding florals were absolutely stunning. We had so many guests complement the florals JFrancis put together. Even weeks later my mom can’t stop gushing about how beautiful they were. We told him the vibe we wanted and the pieces Francis put together were more beautiful than we could have imagined. We wanted a tropical look and the florals he provided really made the wedding. The best part is that he came back to take the florals to donate - something we were interested in doing, but ended up being a service he provides. Would highly recommend working with J Francis Florals.

My husband and I loved working with Vital for our wedding photography and videography! Neither of us enjoys being photographed very much, but Vital is super friendly and put us both at ease. He was very easy to communicate with and was a welcome addition to our wedding day. We never felt like they were in the way or interrupting. We got through the obligatory group shots very quickly which I think everyone really appreciated! His photography is beautiful, both posed shots and candids. He has a great eye for design. Plus we got married last week and already received over 50 photos from our gallery!

Meredith was incredible! I got married in Leicster NC and had Meredith come from SC to do mine and my bridesmaids hair and makeup. Her prices were very fair and definitely worth paying the extra for her to travel. She was so sweet and made me feel like an actual princess on my wedding day. What really sets her apart from others is that she focuses on the experience she provides and not just the results. On a day that is very chaotic Meredith was such a calming presence. She also made sure that everyone felt beautiful and was more than willing to change anything anyone didn't like. I cannot recommend her enough she is beyond talented and over all a very genuine and kind person!

Hey there, I am so happy you are here. A GIRL WITH A DREAMI am a big time lover of love, Jesus, and traveling the world - but you can just call me Hailey. Based in ATL, Im a full time wedding photographer. Im always down for an adventure. When I'm not behind a camera, you can find me on zooming off on a hike with my husband or chatting someone's ear off about my latest podcast obsession. I am here for all the coffee, hugs, & candids. ohh and my Cat hehe

Awarded Best of Zola
I chose Hailey from the moment we had our initial call to talk through her services. She listened so well to our wedding vision & asked thoughtful questions. We were forgoing a wedding coordinator & other “extras.” Hailey was still excited to take us on as clients which some photographers would not have. I was ready to confirm during the call with how supportive and excited she sounded about our day. From this call, she sent over her proposal for cost & information very quickly. She was responsive via text & email to any questions we had. Closer to the date, she sent over a questionnaire so she could be prepared with the photos we wanted. It also included tips & guidance on making sure the experience is smooth. This was super helpful. During the wedding, I was blown away by her and her second shooter. She was decisive when we needed someone to make a decision, supportive to me as a bride, went above and beyond to handle any last minute changes or hiccups with grace. My husband and I had never had professional photos taken. She made it sooo easy and fun! The photos are sooo creative and I continue to pinch myself that they are ours! Wow! Here’s where she deserves to be shouted from the rooftops: We scheduled a hike we wanted photographed to a waterfall on site at the venue (our venue at Hawkesdene in NC lodges all guests for 2 nights). The venue shared it was 1 mile in/out and not difficult. Well it HAILED the night before and rained all night so the path was flooded and muddy. We had to decide to forge ahead or cancel. She without hesitation was ready to forge ahead, ruining her shoes, to ensure we could still have our hike documented with our guests. She encouraged me along the way and I am so grateful because the photos are just incredible. Anyone would be truly lucky to have Hailey capture their wedding. This review doesn’t do her or her skills justice. I will forever cheer her on & can’t wait to find an opportunity to work with her again in the future.

She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

Hi! My name is Sara. The last couple years of my photography career has allowed me to travel to new places which I have always wanted to do. Photography has allowed me to travel to 17+ states. I have been professionally doing photography for 4+ years. Somedays it doesn’t feel real I get to travel & meet all of you amazing people & capture all of these special moments for you. I never take it for granted. I love capturing all of the details, candid’s and the in between during your wedding day.

Sara was absolutely phenomenal, her work is beautiful and she as so easy to work with. She traveled for our wedding and I could not have asked for better pictures. Thank you so much for capturing our day!

Hello! I am so excited you have stopped by to check out Daisy Events. This is my beloved "business baby." Daisy was my childhood nickname and when it came time to name my business, it came to me very easily. Family, friends and celebrating life is what I live and LOVE to do. I have been at this for over 8 years in many different capacities and there isn't anything else I would rather be doing. Decor/Theme, Budget and Vendor management are some of my areas of expertise. I am extremely detail oriented. Nothing brings me more joy than to dive into the process of making your dreams a reality for your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm a venue manager, and Dejanae of Daisy Events was the wedding planner for a wedding at our venue. She was highly organized, both with her communication leading up to the event and her on-site control of the day. An ace in the business I would say!
