Hello! I’m Sharon and I own Sharon Elisabeth Photography. I feel so grateful every day that I get to capture the most heartfelt moments and feelings that occur during weddings as well as documenting the relationships between people who love each other so much – families, friends and couples! I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

  • Classic style

Hi, I'm Ashley, a Charlotte based wedding photographer. I’m all about candid moments, raw moments and real love. Capturing unique love stories and creating a timeless gallery for my people to look back on is what I strive to do. Art is subjective, which is why I love directing my couples in a way that will reflect their love in its realest form while still giving them room to be themselves.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Ashley! She photographed both our engagement session and our wedding, and from start to finish she was so kind, gracious, and easy to work with. Her style is absolutely stunning — every image feels timeless and full of life. We had a non-traditional wedding and I was a bit worried about how the timeline and flow would be captured, but Ashley absolutely crushed it. She made us feel comfortable, kept everything organized, and delivered beautiful photos that perfectly reflect our day. If you’re looking for a photographer who is both talented and wonderful to work with, I can’t recommend Ashley enough!

J+M Event Co 
Rating: 4.8 (4 reviews)
Matthews, NC
  • Florist
  • Starts at $1,500

From planning to design, every element is curated to align with your vision and style. Based in Charlotte, NC, we serve couples throughout North and South Carolina, as well as destination weddings worldwide.

I connected with J&M about 4-5 months out from the wedding through my wedding coordinator. They had some pics of past work, not much that was really my style, so I was nervous about that but they assured me they could customize anything to my taste. Since they didn’t have what I was looking for they said they would order what I wanted. The problem started when to secure my date they required I sign a contract for a specific number/type of center pieces (charging a set price/centerpiece) before I had my venue booked. I ended up needing to change the numbers we had agreed on when I finally booked my venue because we had estimated for the contract since I didn’t know how many of each table size/shape the venue would have. J &M did not want to let me change the numbers on the contract (which we had both agreed at the time we came up with them were only estimates) and only did so once my wedding coordinator contacted them about it. They also were not able to give me any pictures of what my center pieces would look like at any point before the wedding which was a little scary as a bride who likes to have everything planned out well ahead of time. The centerpieces and decorations ended up looking great the day of the wedding, but the whole process was more stressful than I would have preferred. Their communication was mainly through email and often they would not reply for over 24 hours, which was frustrating if we needed to have a 2-4 email exchange about something because it could take days to resolve a simple question. Their pricing is very competitive in the market and the work they did ended up looking amazing, but overall working with them added a lot of stress to my planning process. They also did my bouquets and decorated the arch I provided and those two aspects came out looking wonderful as well. I would recommend them if you are super chill and don’t care to be involved in any details and have your venue booked by the time you contact them.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband, kids, and I have relied upon Jeff for just over 10 years for all of our photographic needs. Is he great behind the camera? Of course, he is amazing. But that is not what compels me to leave this review. Jeff isn't just a photographer, he is family. Whether he met you 10 minutes ago, or 10 years ago, you will be family. Period. Your vision becomes his vision. Your excitement, sincerely, becomes his excitement. His humility and genuine investment to get it right is rare and his energy is infectious. What Jeff brings to an event or shoot is an absolute commitment to capture the moments that make the memories, and along the way he will offer expert advice, display technical proficiency, and will exude integrity and unquestionable professionalism. We have engaged Jeff on 6-7 specific requests, and have been at many events where he was there in a professional capacity. He has perfectly captured our daughter's runway shows (she is a designer of special occasion wear), our kid's graduations, special events, and other family shoots. When we have a wedding, I know we already have a photographer already lined up! Jeff is our photographer, but more importantly, I know that when we have our next moments to capture, he will also be there as family.

Dan Zang Photography

Matthews, NC
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,100

My name is Dan, and I created this business because I believe marriage is an incredibly beautiful and miraculous thing. Your wedding is important, yes, but it's the marriage that lasts (well, that and your wedding photos). This is what I try to capture through my photography - your mutual love and respect, your quiet confidence in one another, and the enduring nature of your commitment. I want your photos to be a reminder to you through the years of how much you loved one another at the beginning, and how much more you've grown in your love.

We truly could not have asked for a better wedding photographer. Dan has an incredible ability to capture the emotional and intimate moments while never disrupting what was naturally unfolding. Nothing ever felt staged or interrupted, but he was able to still capture intentional and high quality photos. You can tell Dan understands the weight of each moment. He isn't just taking pictures, he is capturing a memory and the feeling of the moment, and that is absolutely priceless. While we were driving back to our Air Bnb after the wedding ceremony, we saw an adorable chapel on the side of the road near the beach. I made a comment about how adorable I thought it was--and Dan suggested that we stop and spontaneously take photos in front of the chapel. These turned out to be some of our favorites that he captured. Dan is fun, professional, reliable and we FULL-HEARTEDLY would recommend him to anyone wanting the most important day of your life preserved with photos!

My dream ceremony spot was in the trees, and this venue was the only one I found in the area that offered it. The Enchanted Forest microwedding option was ideal; the venue is rural, peaceful, and spacious. They had an excellent unbeatable selection of decor and allowed any professional caterer. Communication was great, and I never waited long for answers. Closer to the event, having Holly, my coordinator's personal number for texting, was helpful. She and her assistant were excellent in setting up and stayed on top of the timeline. The phone and video calls, in-person decor selection, and venue walkthroughs eased my worries. While other bridal areas weren't pretty and/or small (locker room, gym, large closet) the bridal suite was large and beautiful, and the free engagement shoot perk was nice. Meeting Melanie, her husband and their dogs shows this is a family business. Fantastic venue.

Hi, my name is Faith. I have been passionate about photography since 2017, when I first picked up a camera to capture my dogs growing up. What started as a simple love for photographing my pups has evolved into a deep passion for capturing moments that tell a story. Traveling is another love of mine, and Africa holds a particularly special place in my heart. I have been fortunate enough to visit four times, with hopes to have many more trips. When I am not behind the camera, I'm either coaching gymnastics, spending time with my two dogs and horse, or exploring the world around me.

Levar Hage Photography offers a calm, personal experience built on over 10 years in business and more than 500 weddings photographed and filmed. 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.

From the moment we first spoke with Levar, he was open and welcoming, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. Levar and his team delivered high quality, beautiful photography that perfectly captured all the special moments of our engagement. He started the day with a smile and kept that positive energy going until the very end. I would highly recommend Levar Hage Photography to any couple looking for an experienced, talented photographer to document their engagement and wedding.

Hello there! My name is Nicole, and I am the creative force behind Color Me Glitter Events! ​ A few things about me: my favorite color is glitter, I tell time by how many cups of coffee I've drank, I use too many exclamation points, and I am meticulous about table set ups! ​ I have worked in the event industry since 2009, and I couldn't imagine myself doing anything else! When I worked my first wedding, I fell in love, and knew I had to start my own business! I launched Color Me Glitter Events in 2017 and have helped many couples make their journey down the aisle! My number one priority is ALWAYS to go above and beyond for my couples!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we started planning our wedding, the team at Color Me Glitter was prompt, detailed, and incredibly professional. Nicole, our wedding planner, ensured that every vendor was on the same page and that the timeline ran seamlessly. She even thought to bring deodorant for the reception, a detail that made all the difference! The quality of Color Me Glitter's work was truly excellent - they provided the best value and delivered a stellar performance. Nicole took care of everything, allowing me to be a stress-free bride who could simply focus on saying "I do." I would give them 10 stars on a 5-star scale if I could - they made our day truly special.
