Alex Faye Media exists to tell love stories exactly as they are—unfiltered, emotional, and alive. I’m not here to stage your day; I’m here to capture the real, messy, beautiful magic of it. From photography and videography to planning, every part of what I do is about creating space for couples to breathe, laugh, and actually enjoy their wedding. I love what I do because I get to turn moments into art, and every story I tell feels like its own kind of forever.

We absolutely loved working with OLAS! Our team (photo & video) was so adaptable to the venue and had great ideas for shots and making the most of the location. I loved all of the candids taken of the guests which is something I wanted during the ceremony and reception. We were able to see parts of the night that we would have missed. The planning team was also great- Hannah was very helpful in giving me an example timeline ahead of our call. We’re so pleased with our choice to select OLAS!

The quality of their work was truly one-of-a-kind - their photos are gorgeous, superb, innovative, and incredibly detail-oriented and precise.

She is super professional and prompt, but is also just a really cool person who did SO MUCH to calm our nerves leading up to the wedding. 2. Her photos are gorgeous. She has such good attention to detail, lighting, editing, and you can really really tell in the finished product. 3. She just takes photos of you whenever she is around, and got tons of great candids. 4. We had gorgeous sneak peeks within like 48 hours of the wedding - it was truly insane turnaround but was amazing for us to get hype and very quickly see high-quality photos of the day. 5. The system she uses to deliver your photos is great - we got a lot of compliments on it from our friends and family! 6. She goes above and beyond to make sure you get what you need - we filled out a survey a few weeks out listing our priorities, existing schedule, who needed to be in family photos, etc, and she sent back a really nice photo schedule document. It was fantastic to front-load this work and get it out of the way, and it made the day go so smoothly! 7. Overall she just really incredibly & beautifully captured the joy of the day - the personalities of my partner and I, our friends and family, the vibe of the venue and the party, and the sweetness of the sweet moments.

Hey, I’m Blythe—a wedding photographer with a heart for intimate moments and untamed landscapes. I specialize in capturing the raw, real, and beautifully unposed stories of couples who choose to celebrate their love in meaningful, personal ways—whether it’s a quiet mountaintop elopement or a cozy backyard ceremony with your loved ones. If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels true to you, I’d be honored to document it in a way that’s timeless, artful, and deeply personal. Let’s chase the light together.

Awarded Best of Zola
One of the best decisions we made during our wedding was to work with Blythe, she was one of the first vendors we hired and came as a recommendation from a friend. When she arrived to my bridal suite, I immediately felt a sense of calm, and trust that she would help capture our day as we had pictured. She truly went above and beyond on our wedding day, she wasn't just our photographer, but my dress bustle expert, veil placer, hairpin carrier, bouquet carrier, dress and veil fluffer, she even grabbed a napkin and took my husband's gum out of his mouth. She communicated on the day of with my other vendors immediately, whenever I saw that something was missing or out of place. Truly our wedding day would have not run as smoothly without her. When I needed her she was right there in seconds, and during other portions of the wedding, I hardly even noticed she was there snapping photos so we truly got to enjoy our day without being constantly pulled for posed photos. All of our family members and friends kept commenting to us how incredible she was without ever even seeing any of the photos. She truly was the biggest gift to have on one of the biggest days of our lives. We only wish we could work with her again and again. From the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU SO MUCH Blythe, we loved working with you and can't wait to work with you again in the future. If you are at all considering working with her please please HIRE HER!

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.

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.

From the moment we reached out to Birchfields, their communication was quick, thorough, and sincere. Their attention to detail and ability to make us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera resulted in exceptional photographs that captured every special moment of our wedding day. Birchfields truly went above and beyond, taking unique angles and perspectives that allowed us to relive the entire day through their stunning imagery. When it’s hard to figure out which photo you want to print out and hang on the wall, you know you picked the right photographer! We could not be happier with the final product and would highly recommend Steve to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable wedding photographer.

The KD Hunt experience is rooted in connection, trust, and intentional storytelling. From our first conversation to the final gallery, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen, cared for, and completely at ease. I take time to understand your story — the emotions, the details, the quiet moments in between — so every photograph reflects the truth of who you are. With a balance of editorial direction and effortless authenticity, I capture your day as it unfolds, blending timeless artistry with genuine emotion. More than just beautiful images, this is about preserving the heart behind them — your love, your faith, your legacy.

OBSESSED with how our wedding photos and engagement photos came out. Katie is an amazing wedding photographer! She captured the perfect mix of candid and posed shots, and guided us through so many poses that ended up looking natural and gorgeous. She was super responsive to emails and texts, helped us stay on track with the timeline, and was very clear about what she needed from us to get the best shots. These are photos we’ll treasure forever and can’t wait to share with our kids and grandkids one day! Highly recommend!
