Gastonia, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

I am a wedding photographer based in Charlotte, North Carolina. I specialize in creating timeless and artful portraits that capture the beauty and emotions of weddings. With a focus on delivering an exceptional experience for my clients, I strive to create lasting memories that can be cherished forever. I am dedicated to providing the highest level of service and quality to my clients. I work closely with each couple to understand their unique vision and ensure that every detail is captured in stunning imagery. With years of experience in the industry, I have the skills and expertise to make your wedding day unforgettable.

I've known Skyler since high school and I'm very glad that I decided to ask her to do the photography for our wedding. She was on top of it and went above and beyond for every step of the day. Even our pastor that officiated the ceremony said that she did an amazing job trying to stay out of the way and get as many great pictures as possible. The pictures turned out amazing and I am glad I will be able to forever have these memories of that day. So if you're needing a photographer please ask Skylar.

Belmont, NC

Hey Friends. My Name is Kelly and I'm a wedding and elopement photographer in the Charlotte NC area. I've been a professional photographer for 9+ years. Growing up, I always had a disposable camera in my hand. Looking back I'm thankful for all the candid moments I captured. I still feel that same kind of wonder as I did as a kid any time I get to see photos i've captured for the first time. I have a love for all things nostalgic - which is why I LOVE capturing love on film.

Kelly did an excellent job! Punctual, easy to work with and very go with the flow!

  • Starts at $2,300

Hi! I'm a Charlotte native, mom of 3, horse and cat mom, passionate cook, artist, gardener and all things creative. I love hearing love stories, getting to know my couples, and really working my hardest to not only deliver full wedding day coverage, but that WOW factor, that makes you KNOW in your heart you chose the right photographer.

Stefanie was our dream photographer! Years later her photos fill our house. She was wonderful to work with and disappeared into the background of the wedding while still being everywhere to grab all the amazing photos of moments we would want to cherish for years. She was quick with our couple photos getting us through as soon as possible and onto the dance floor. Through the hundreds of photos, there is not a bad photo (or bad angle) in the bunch. We highly recommend her!! And can’t wait to use her again!!

Hi there! I'm Jackie, and this is my husband & business partner, Cory. Many photographer's "about me" section will tell you how they've known they wanted to be a photographer since they were a child. Not mine. I didn't know that's what I wanted until I actually started taking pictures and realized that photography was the creative outlet I had been missing my entire life. Not only am I so incredibly blessed to have this amazing, life-giving business; I'm even more blessed to get to share it with my husband.

We have done 2 sessions with Jacqueline so far and both have come out beautiful! She is so sweet and easy to work with. It’s like having a friend you know take your picture.

Rob Tesar Photography

Waxhaw, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

We lovingly refer to our photography work as our “honeymoon baby.” We began our pursuit of photography shortly before our first wedding anniversary- mostly out of a desire to create art and serve people together. We choose to specialize in weddings for many reasons. We love each other, and when we see others who share that deep commitment to one another we can’t help but rejoice. One of the greatest joys of our work is in capturing the many unique and diverse ways in which our clients share those feelings with each other.

I cannot say enough good things about Rob + Kristen! Not only are they amazing photographers and capture all the moments, but they are awesome people as well! My husband and I were blessed to have them on our big day. Rob has such an eye for a great shot and will work tirelessly to make sure he provides you with the best of the best. Kristen is a girls best friend. When we did posed photos, she was always there to make sure my hair was right, we were standing correctly, holding flowers when I was not using them - she even held my lipstick in her bag for me and reapplied when needed! They got our pictures back to us so quick and we could not be happier!

Harry McLaughlin Photography LLC

5.0

Indian Trail, NC
  • Photojournalistic style

I hold this belief from within the depths of my heart that there is something mesmerizing and special in having the choice to take a glance at the emphatic moments of your everyday life captured in the camera and recalling every little detail and memory attached to them. Something remarkable happens when one looks at the pictures of the beautiful days of life gone by. Let it be a tear in the eye, a smile on the face, or just a sigh of nostalgic pleasure. Allow me to be a part of your friends and family for those brief moments to help gain those experiences and capture them on photographs for eternity.

I don’t know how to put into words about my experience with Harry. Picking out vendors for our wedding, I mostly went off their personality and Harry seemed like such a kind hearted individual that would go above and beyond to make us feel taken care of. He did not disappoint! My now husband and I, are introverts and we felt unbelievably comfortable with Harry from the beginning. His turn around time to give us some sneak peaks was the next day! His photos truly captured our personalities as a couple and individually. We would choose him over and over again!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We were blown away by the work that Pnce Like a Spark did. I was nervous having not met the videographer or photographer before the wedding, but I had nothing to be nervous about! Daniel and Jeremy were incredible, kind, funny, and helped us feel comfortable and relaxed. Their personalities were amazing and we just got our photos and they came out beautifully. Thank you for all the work and ease with everything!

Brett and Caitlyn were absolutely amazing! They traveled up to Cornelius, NC for a wedding we asked them to photograph only 2 or 3 weeks prior. It was a very sudden change of plans for my husband and I and oh my gosh these two were absolutely fantastic! They arrived an hour early and stuck to the timeline they had created! They caught special moments that I didn’t even realize were all that special until I saw the pictures! They work with you on pricing and are very flexible! I cannot recommend them enough! 100/10!

My husband and I contracted Sean to photograph our 50th Wedding Anniversary party on July 22, 2023. We could not be more pleased with all that Sean offers as a photographer and an all around good person. His eye for catching candid photos is excellent which he does in a non intrusive manner. He has a way of taking many photos without being disruptive to the flow of the event. The portrait photos were very well composed, clear and artistic with a special touch of a few black and white photographs. At the end of several hours, Sean had taken over 300 photos, all of which are so good that it would be difficult to choose between them . Within several days, the photos were available to us on line and ready to distribute to our guests. Sean is prompt with communication, very professional and personable.His presence is an asset to the event. He has a potpourri of extensive photographic equipment which combined with his talent and creativity, provides a multitude of beautiful photographs We give Sean our highest recommendation !!!

After an introductory video call with them, we decided we would love to work with one another! We ended up working with Michael, who shot our engagement/family photos, and our wedding! This experience was beyond my and my families expectations! It felt like Michael was one of our long standing friends form the moment we met. The other photographers he brought along to help were also an absolute joy, one even took over as DJ when ours had to leave! We had people coming up to us all night asking where we found them and even asked for their information afterwards. Michael was very kind as we had some photographers in the family who asked him questions all night and even let them take a few pictures.

I cannot express how incredibly thankful we were for choosing McKenna to capture our big day. McKenna was so friendly and charismatic from the start and she fit right into the craziness and chaos of our life without missing a beat. She was flexible and super communicative, especially when it rained on the day of our engagement photos, which really helped to calm our nerves and make the session comfortable and fun. She stepped right into the flow of things on our wedding day and kept everyone on schedule and in good spirits. The photos came back better than I could've imagined and our guests haven't stopped talking about them. To say that McKenna is talented would be an understatement and I'll certainly be asking her to capture the rest of our big life moments!

Her eye for detail and way of capturing the big and small moments is just what we wanted for our wedding day. Her edits were also perfect they were not overly touched up and still very natural which is exactly what we wanted! Can’t say enough good things about Sarah as a person and as a photographer!

Lacie is fantastic. Not only is she wildly talented and professional, but what impressed me the most is how she connects with others. In the consultations and discussions we had prior to my wedding day, I would leave feeling 100% confident that I made the right decision with her as my photographer. I say this because she seemed excited about and invested in the details of my wedding. This made me feel confident that she would do the job to the best of her ability - and not just because it was her job to, but because she really cared.

I've been an artist for as long as I can remember. My mom gave me an old film camera sometime around 5th grade thinking offhand that I might be interested in yet another art form and boy was she ever right. From then on, I've always had a camera in my hand, documenting anything and everything. Photography has been not only my chosen form of expression for over half my lifetime, but my way of learning about the world, of getting to know people, and even of getting to know myself.

Awarded Best of Zola
We would choose Adrian a million times! She flew out to Seattle (our current home) to take our engagement photos and she did an amazing job. She was adaptive to the many environments we took her to and she came up with great ideas quickly during the course of the day. She made us feel very comfortable so we could be ourselves in the photos. On our wedding day, she knew exactly where to do photos when it started to rain but maintained the intimacy of our first look. She was organized with our many family photos and kept us moving when we took photos with each of our tables (exaclty what we needed). She is very outgoing, friendly, and talented. She took the time to get to know us which made our photos more special in the end.

As a long time wedding and elopement photographer, I am passionate about my couples enjoying and being present on their wedding day. I take only a handful of wedding clients a year so that I stay fresh and excited. I usually shoot about 30% classic portraiture and 70% lifestyle/photo documentary. I like to tell the story through movement and candid photos, while also taking time to create striking and timeless portraits. I edit all my photos in black and white and color, with a film finish.

We decided to hire Helen Joy for our elopement after she did our maternity shoot because she was so amazing to work with and everything was so easy and natural. On our day of elopement, the weather didn’t go according to plan and we ended up with foggy overcast lighting. I can’t tell you how amazing those photos came out despite the conditions, and she went along with everything on the fly with ease. She was able to capture the magic in the moments, foggy weather and location change included, and those photos capture our tender moments in a frame forever. I will cherish those til the end of our days. She takes shots so discretely and I had no idea she caught some of the beautiful moments that she did. I can’t say enough good things, we highly recommend Helen Joy for any photography you’re looking for!

Kaitlyn was an incredible photographer to work with! We did 2 engagement photoshoot sessions with her, which were both so fun!! My husband was dreading the photography most, out of all parts of “wedding planning.” But Kaitlyn was able to make him feel relaxed and comfortable so that he actually enjoyed himself! And he actually loves the way he looks in the photos! (He usually hates having his photo taken and the way he photographs.) Kaitlyn was able to capture our silliness, laughter, and genuine happiness in the candid photos which is exactly the look and feel I was hoping for in our photos! (I’m personally not a fan of the stiff posed or moody photos.) Our second engagement shoot also included our dog, which was fantastic! Not only was Kaitlyn great to work with on wedding day and the 2 engagement shoots, she was also a great resource for planning the logistics and timeline of the wedding day. She had great input of the flow of the entire day, which was something I had completely overlooked. Most importantly, Kaitlyn was very professional the entire time. We also gave Kaitlyn the added task of photographing the flower girl nieces (ages 2 & 7 years) and the ring bearer nephew (age 5) who is on the Autism Spectrum. All 3 kiddos still talk months later about how they had so much fun at the wedding! And Kaitlyn was able to capture them all smiling! Photographing dogs and kids is always difficult to ask for, but the photos of our smiling nephew on our wedding day made the parents and grandparents cry tears of joy! It’s rare to catch this kid smiling! We loved working with Kaitlyn, and we can’t wait to do more photoshoots together in the future!

She was taking photos to make my day memorable and focused on the details that I am so grateful she was able to capture. She photographed my family members too and made me feel beautiful on my day. I sometimes get awkward in front of cameras but she made me feel comfortable and I would for sure book her again when given the chance. I highly recommend. She’s very understanding of different cultures and made sure to capture those moments that made my day special. She edits beautifully and she also sent a flash drive in a beautifully presented box.

Growing up, I was obsessed with magical love stories. Fairy tale love stories always left me with a euphoric feeling. I now get to document these stories being a professional photographer, & I LOVE IT! This is not a job for me but a passion that I am grateful to pursue. There are many good photographers out there, but what makes me unique is my passion for what I do. I will do anything to capture the most intimate moments for you to enjoy for a lifetime. If I must get in a tree, lay in a mud puddle, or wade in water to get the perfect shot, I will do it!

As a videographer working alongside a good photographer on a wedding day means a lot. Caitlin is always a photographer I highly recommend! She cares deeply about every individual she works with. She is creative with the shots she captures to keep each gallery fresh and unique. She is one of the sweetest people I've had the pleasure of working with! Every time I see her name on one of my vendor forms asking who I'm working with, my heart fills with joy. It is so much fun working alongside Caitlin and I can not speak highly enough of her and her work!

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

My husband and I were so grateful to be able to work with Jackson for our wedding day! He made the process so easy! I didn't have a lot of experience with weddings before my own, especially a backyard reception like the one I had, but Jackson was patient and kind and gave suggestions and recommendations all along the way. And all of our guests felt the same way about how patient and kind he was when they reflected afterwards! Throughout the process, he let us know exactly what to expect and captured all of the special moments! But beyond his professionalism and kindness, the quality of his work spoke volumes! The video came across like a movie trailer (this is what others have told me and I absolutely agree) and made our simple backyard wedding look like a grand affair! He captured the love, intimacy, and fun of that day, and I couldn't have asked for a better videographer! Thank you Jackson for making our wedding day even better, and I couldn't recommend him enough for your own wedding/party needs!

"Passionate" doesn't really begin to describe how I feel about being a photographer. It's more like, who I am as a person. Photographs are able to speak a million words in a moment when words may fail. After photographing 200+ couples of all shapes, sizes, & colors -- I can still say it is my favourite thing to do in the universe. People are my JAM! I love people & their wonderful uniqueness. When two people get together in a thing called "love"? Well, I just can't help but want to be a part of it! Capturing those obvious or subtle displays of affection between two people in true, heartfelt love is as necessary as oxygen in my lungs.

As a local wedding planner it is so important to have a professional, experienced, and charismatic photographer on the team! Planners and photographers work together to make sure your day goes smoothly and all those special moments are captured. Regina is a great team mate and a huge asset to any wedding day! She knows exactly what she is doing and her work is unbelievable. I highly recommend her for your wedding day. Your photos should feel like treasures, all unique and beautiful, and Regina always makes that happen. Shayla Khalife All The Things Events

This storyteller believes that your wedding day shouldn't feel like a photo shoot, but should be full of genuine moments that are unique to your love story. As a fly on the wall with a photojournalist style, I am less concerned about "blog worthy" shots and more about the candids that show who you are and who you love. I find importance in preserving fleeting moments and the importance of printing photos, not just letting them live in an online gallery.

Holy cow! When we were looking for a photographer and we saw Amy’s photography we reached out right away hoping she would have availability. We decided against doing engagement photos and instead had Amy come a day early for the rehearsal dinner which we were so happy. Amy made sure to keep in touch leading up to the wedding and guided us regarding some of the decision making for day of. She was so easy to be around and was totally flexible with impending weather. It ended up raining day of and Amy was still able to get the most amazing shots. We wanted to make sure that she was able to capture the special moments during our weekend and she did just that.

Hi! We're Julie and Rad. We met in Vietnam in 2016, and have lived in eight countries together since then. During our time abroad we've had plenty of adventures, seen incredible wildlife, eaten a lot of wonderful food, and honed our photography skills. We also got married in 2020! Planning a wedding during a pandemic involved an unusual set of challenges. Although our guest count was a little smaller than we originally anticipated-- the day could not have been more perfect. This was made possible only because we hired and trusted the right people. We try to instill the same trust so you can enjoy your day!

Kind, patient, flexible, talented... what more could you ask for from your wedding photographers. Jules & Conrad are top-quality people and photograhers. We fell in love with them for their eye - finding beauty in the smallest of candid details. Even going in with high expectations, we were overwhelmed by the quality of the gallery Jules & Conrad delivered. If you want photographers who will also be able to capture the small moments beyond the big kiss - the quiet glances, the guest smiles, the reach of a hand, a dancefloor drop - this is the couple for you. Would choose them as our photographers a million times over.

My love for photography started at a young age in my small hometown outside of Pittsburgh. After being in public accounting for over four years, I eventually left to explore the creative fulfillment that photography has always given me. I knew immediately that being able to capture the love and joy between a couple for them to cherish for years to come, brought me the fulfillment I was searching for. As a photographer, I love natural light, authentic moments and adventurous souls. When not behind the camera, I’m forever a Harry Potter superfan and pasta addict. I’m always looking for new people and places to inspire me.

Alessandra photographed my sister in laws wedding and we knew we needed her contact information! We couldn’t be happier with working with Alessandra. She captured our entire wedding weekend with confidence, fun & positivity. She delivered our sneak peek photos within 2 days of our wedding and we were blown away.
