  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Monterey, VA

Your wedding day is a whirlwind of family and friends, vows and true love, good food and of course lots of cake! With a wedding photographer, all the beautiful moments can be captured and remembered forever. Pop of Molly Photography focuses on candid photography encapsulating the bride and groom and wedding guests enjoying the moment and being their own beautiful selves. Focusing on candid photography doesn't mean I won't take the time to sit down with you and go over the "must have" shots, list of family members and wedding party, and ensure I have photos of all your Pinterest board "dream wedding" photos.

Molly did an amazing job and was very easy to work with. We received previews and the actual pictures much quicker than I expected and we are very happy with how they turned out. Highly recommend!

Megan Aldhizer Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,550
  • Serves Monterey, VA

I am a wedding and portrait photographer serving Virginia and beyond. I have been taking photos since I was able to hold a camera and am so incredibly passionate about capturing moments and storytelling through the art of photography!

From the moment we reached out to Megan for our engagement photos, we were impressed by her clear, prompt, and fun communication style. Megan has a bubbly, celebratory energy that made the photo session an absolute joy. The final photos were absolutely gorgeous - Megan has a great eye for beautiful shots. While we ultimately went with a different photographer for our wedding day due to budget constraints (he is a friend of a friend who is a professional and offered us a discount we couldn’t not accept), I am confident Megan would have done an incredible job capturing all the special moments of our big day. Her affordable and stunning portfolio make her an excellent value for any couple planning their wedding.

We loved working with Megan for both our engagement and wedding photos! She’s so easy to work with and gave us great pictures.

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

Sophia was extremely professional in all of our communications leading up to the big day - she was organized, responsive, and helped us feel at ease.

Your wedding day should feel like you, relaxed and joyful, surrounded by the people you love most. It’s about real moments, laughter, happy tears, and the quiet in between times that make the day truly yours. I take a documentary style approach to capture those moments as they happen, so you don’t feel like your day is just a checklist. I step in when needed, like for family formals, but mostly focus on letting you enjoy your day while those candid moments unfold naturally.

She captured every single emotion; the joy, the tears, the belly laughs and turned it all into pure art. Our photos are beyond anything we could’ve imagined. They feel alive, like we’re right back in those moments every time we look at them. I’ve been obsessing over them nonstop, they’re that good. Emie, you’re a magician. We love you and can’t thank you enough for giving us the most beautiful memories to hold onto forever.

Hi, my name is Maria Davis! I am a documentary style photographer capturing love stories on both film and digital. I am a homegrown and local Winston-Salem, NC girl with a second location in Boston, MA. You can usually find me along the upper east coast, but I happily offer my services within the USA with $0 travel feels. If you are interested in working together, please visit my website to see a little more about me, my work, and how I can help you make your wedding day visions real.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you have the opportunity to work with Maria we recommend you take that chance while you’ve got it. She is an AMAZING photographer, fun to work with, and is so thoughtful/ helpful during the planning journey. We’ve already had a friend say they’d hit her up if they get married because they loved our experience and photos so much. 10000% could not recommend her enough. When we were looking for a wedding and engagement photographer we wanted someone who was creative in their shots, had crystal clear photo quality, and had a true to life/vibrant photography style - and Maria was the perfect fit! We had a phone consultation where she asked thoughtful questions to get to know us as a couple but also helped asked things related to photography to help us communicate our desires and ensure she was the right fit. Maria wants her couples to have the dreamiest day and I loved how intentional she was with helping us communicate our vision - she’s the pro and knew exactly what to ask to get us thinking! We were immediately obsessed and left in awe at some sample galleries, so we signed right away. When it came time for our engagement photos we had this super fun pre-shoot questionnaire that once again consisted of thoughtful questions (our planner was SO impressed with them), such as if there were any specific shots we wanted or our comfort level with photos. My now husband and I sat down with wine and went through the questions together, so that itself was a fun planning experience. We’re not the most comfortable in front the camera so it was cool to feel seen and have her understand us before we arrived to the shoot. And let me tell you we had the BEST time! We felt comfortable so quickly and the shoot flew by. The photos turned out AMAZING and we got even more excited for the wedding. Before the wedding we had a questionnaire to go over our desires for the wedding (and even had a chance to put secret info if you had any surprises for people or just wanted her to be aware of certain family dynamics you don’t want widely disseminated). On our wedding day Maria even handled a situation for us when we asked for help and she was the most discreet and professional and got us taken care of. We just got our full gallery back and the photos are the dreamiest - incredible sunset photos, creative and thoughtful detail shots, and excellent photos of our guests. The gallery captures our day perfectly and is everything and more than we could have asked for. Maria is timely, talented, professional, a cool person, and is someone we’d hire again in a heartbeat. Plus, she’s always down for an adventure so if you want to travel I’m sure she’ll be happy to meet you there and help make your photography dreams come true. We will cherish our engagement and wedding photos forever. All photos credited to Maria at MTD Photo Co.

I met Liz at a family wedding we attended in March 2023 and absolutely loved how their photos turned out! So when it was time to start planning my Jan 2024 wedding, I knew I wanted to reach out to her first. As so many brides know, one thing can lead to another and things change! I decided to cancel the January plans and opted for a more intimate, destination wedding in Lake Tahoe and Liz didn’t even hesitate to still be my photographer, even after I moved up the wedding to just a couple months out. She showed up, ready to make our photo dreams come true! I couldn’t have been more lucky to have her capture our wedding day in the most special location….still daydream about the day. :) Liz is so supportive and talented! She’s simply the best.

She and her second photographer struck the perfect balance of being professional and efficient while also feeling like casual friends, which made the entire experience feel natural and fun.

Hi, its Jessica, I am a couples and wedding photographer based in Virginia. My clients are so special that they find themselves a friend for a lifetime, not just another wedding vendor. I take time to know you! I love learning about your love story, the proposal, etc. I am hopeless romantic, so I will probably shed a tear at every wedding I attend or photograph.

Jessica is AMAZING, we hired her for our wedding and also did the engagement pictures with her. I am brazilian and since she is also I thought maybe my now husband would be a little uncomfortable taking the pictures but no way, not with Jessica, the way she makes everything seems so smooth and simple makes you think you are spending a good afternoon with a friend! And her work is definitely THE BEST! On my wedding day she managed to speak both languages with my family and my guests and took so much amazing pictures that now is hard to choose! Everyone loved her job and she sent the pictures so fast that I was really impressed! From now one my dates for events with pictures will depend on her agenda. I can’t wait for the next sessions of her capturing our love!

Hey there, I’m Elena! I’m a wedding and engagement photographer based in Bristol, VA/TN, serving couples across Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina—with a special love for weddings in the DC and Northern Virginia area. My style is relaxed, playful, and observant, and I help camera-shy couples feel comfortable in front of the lens. Before weddings, I spent a decade as a travel reporter, which shaped my storytelling approach. I also offer a seamless photo+video bundle with my trusted videographer, so your day is captured beautifully—without any chaos.

Elena's work is lively, picturesque, and stunning. She communicates efficiently, effectively, and in a timely manner. Elena went above and beyond to provide the best shots whether laying in the leaves on the cold November ground or climbing chairs and ladders for a better angle, she was phenomenal to work with. Her work captures not only the beauty of the day, but its story to build a compelling narrative. Thank you so much!

Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

Not sure where to start.  Manai totally took us by surprise.  We knew we wanted something a little different but weren’t sure what exactly.  Personally, I hate taking photos, but he kept us engaged with conversation and simple directions, and things flowed naturally.  His sense of humor was a pleasant surprise.   My fiancé really wanted a good pic with our dog, and Manai totally blew us away.  So creative!!  Highly recommended!!!!

Hi! I'm Sherry, the owner of 83 Weddings, and I’ll be your direct point of contact from your very first inquiry all the way through final delivery. My background is a little unique—I previously worked as a field photographer for the FBI while capturing weddings in my spare time. Over the years, my passion for weddings grew, and today it has become my full-time focus. Along the way, I’ve built an incredible team of talented photographers and videographers, allowing 83 Weddings to serve couples across the country.

We were thrilled with the services provided by 83 Weddings for our wedding photography. From the moment we first reached out, the team was highly communicative and responsive, making the booking process seamless. On the day of the wedding, the photographers were professional, discreet, and captured all the special moments beautifully. The final photos exceeded our expectations in terms of quality - they are stunning and really showcase the joy and love of our big day. The value for the price was exceptional, and we would highly recommend 83 Weddings to any couple looking for talented, high-quality wedding photographers.
