Ryan Clark Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Newport News, VA

Photography has always interested me as the medium in which to freely express the emotions in my mind. Being interested in photography at an early age I got my first camera, a Polaroid Land Camera. Though mostly a self-taught photographer, I was always a student of taking photos and print manipulation. While practicing photography at the Visual Arts Center in Portsmouth, VA, I learned how to develop and print photos in a darkroom. This led me to converting one of the rooms in my house into a functioning darkroom, and for many years I developed negatives and made prints for clients and art shows.

Ryan was fantastic and everything we were expecting from a wedding photographer and more! He was professional and well rehearsed every step of the way. We feel we received great value based on his prices. He captured fun little details and interacted with our families and guests nicely. He put up with an insanely rainy day without a flaw. He dressed professionally. His delivery was on time, professional. Thanks a million!

My background in photography began as an outdoor adventure photographer, and I want to bring that inspiration of adventure into photographing your union! Please help me build my Wedding Portfolio! It would be my honor!

Sky’s landscape photography captures a breathtaking intimacy. The wild spaces he shares, whether fiery sunsets or lonesome mountaintops, come alive with a distinct clarity. His vision celebrates solitude, and his photos should encourage everyone of us to disconnect, to step out of the home, and to follow the trail. They should encourage each of us to reclaim a piece of our wild heart.

Elizabeth Yanna Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Newport News, VA

Hey there! I am Elizabeth, the owner & head photographer of Elizabeth Yanna Photography. I am a couples photographer located out of Coastal Virginia, but I am always up for adventure and travel to wherever your love grows. My editing style is considered "warm and moody" with a photojournalistic twist. You can expect prompts over poses and lots of movement and interaction with your partner, instead of stiff posing and "eye contact" with the camera. I have often been told that I have a way with working quietly and quickly, as to not distract the spotlight of your day from... well, YOU!

I was so excited to finally work with Elizabeth! We go way back our pictures turned out so incredible. We can’t stop obsessing over them! Elizabeth is very thorough during the meetings to make sure every shot you want is accounted for and everything stays on schedule! I look forward to working with her for a boudoir and/or maternity session!

So what VWC does is they pair you with a photographer that they think will fit you and your style the best and let me just say, they knocked it out of the park. Ashley and (both!) Brianna’s were amazing, they made our day so fun and special! Their attitude and outgoing personalities were so fun to have on our day, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease with the amount of pictures we were taking! All my family and guests were raving about how much fun they were and how at ease they made everyone feel, and just how much they could tell they loved being a part of our day! As for the owners, Ashley & Luke, they very clearly love what they do and respect their customers. We had a bit of a snaffu early in our wedding planning process and they took care of it in such a professional and apologetic manner that my husband and I felt comfortable that we still would have them capture our wedding day. Honestly, their entire team was wonderful to work with and our sneak peeks are just absolutely amazing and iI truly cannot wait to see the rest of our album!

Being new to the Virginia wedding scene, I'm excited to connect with local couples to create timeless imagery that celebrates the area but most importantly, your love story. I take great care in capturing every moment as it naturally unfolds- focusing on the raw emotion, true-to-color tones, and the real atmosphere of your day. My approach is very documentary style, allowing me to preserve the honest beauty of your celebration without heavy editing or overposing. Each image is carefully crafted to reflect the story you tell so that when you look back, it feels exactly how it did in the moment.

AS Media was an exceptional wedding photography team to work with. From the start, their communication was fast, accommodating, receptive, open-minded, and friendly. They took the time to understand our vision, asking for a list of desired shots and examples of photography styles we liked. On the day of the wedding, Alex was extremely punctual, arriving early for the ceremony and staying late into the evening for the reception. She dedicated the entire day to capturing our special day, making us feel so special and valued. The final photos were of the highest quality - thorough, dependable, skilled, creative, and truly captured all the details, from our guests to the decor. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend AS Media to any couple looking for exceptional wedding photography.

A former newspaper photographer & editor, I truly love to capture authentic moments as they happen - commonly known as lifestyle photography. My favorite photos are storytelling moments filled with happiness & love. I'm also a sucker for gorgeous light, sunsets, trees, and ALL naturally beautiful outdoor settings. I'm a bit of a romantic and LOVE catching those in between funny moments when no one thinks I'm watching. My Client for Life program evolved when so many couples came back to me for newborn and family sessions - I LOVE building that relationship and becoming "their" photographer for life.

Heather Hughes gave us the most incredible photos and was a lifesaver at our wedding! Her pictures are downright magical, and she stepped in to save the day when our timeline went awry and our venue coordinator dropped the ball. She was such a joy to have around on our special day, and did a fantastic job of keeping everyone on track while also knowing when to let the schedule flex. She was an invaluable part of our wedding and we are so excited to use her for our soon-to-come newborn photos!

I am passionate about preserving every moment from your special day - particularly those intimate moments of togetherness amid the crazy! ❤️ I am an introvert and more on the quiet side, but I can wrangle a crowd if I need to. 😉 If you like goofy comedies, folk and pop music, and loving people how Jesus does, we'll get along just perfectly!

As both a bride and a former wedding coordinator, I can’t recommend Kaytlyn enough! From the very beginning, she was a dream to work with — professional, responsive, and so easygoing. We first worked with her for our engagement session, and the results were absolutely stunning — she captured us so naturally and beautifully that we knew instantly she was the perfect choice for our wedding.

Luxury wedding photographer for the modern couple with classic style. Based in Virginia, traveling worldwide. I have only ten photographs from my wedding day—ten carefully chosen frames that captured the expected moments. I cherish them. But as the years have passed, it’s not those images I reach for first- it’s the moments that weren’t documented. The unscripted moments- those are the ones that shaped the heart of our story. That perspective is at the core of how I photograph weddings today. I approach each celebration with an eye for both refinement and truth- capturing the depth of what is felt.

During the planning process, I mostly spoke with Jessica. She was very friendly and flexible with the initial meeting phone call, and I felt very comfortable talking to her. She made the contract very easy to understand and worked with me to pick the best package that would suit our wedding needs. She was helpful with answering any little questions I had along the way in the lead up to the wedding. Peter was photographer for the day of the wedding and I’ve never met anyone so friendly and comfortable to be around right away! I loved working with him and he was able to be very efficient while still getting amazing quality photos. I wanted to eat and rest after the ceremony, so I really really appreciated the efficiency! I know that he would also be great for people who want to take their time with their photo sessions, because he listened to any suggestions I made and would take his time when needed. He took a bunch of great shots during the reception, showing how much fun all of our friends had on the dance floor! If you’re looking for professional, friendly, down-to-Earth photographers, go with Jessica and Peter Cenzalli!!

Our wedding included three different locations - a ceremony in the mountains, a reception indoors in a restaurant, and an after party downtown, as well as getting ready at a parent’s. Kathleen went out of her way to go to each location, and shot incredible photos, even though each location required different settings and expertise. She was fantastic at directing and wrangling family members and friends, and provided advice on the best location for photos. She is a wonderful person, and got along with everyone so well, going out of her way to provide mints and tissues. Kathleen knows when it’s important to take charge and when to step back, and she also let us flag her down for specific photos with friends and family members. Prior to the wedding, she was also incredibly professional, with a helpful website, structured planning meetings, and thorough contract. Most importantly, we got our sneak peak photos the next day, and they are STUNNING - she captured so many details, intimate moments, and thoughtful shots.

My excited, caring and spunky with a side of ‘hell yeah’ personality makes people feel comfortable, protected and loved. I meet people, hug them within seconds and it’s not awkward. Also, catch me slingin' jokes and dancing while I work or just on a Tuesday. I started my business three years ago, since then I've captured 102 weddings and over 200 couples, I can't image doing anything else! I’m married to Alex, love of my life, cat-doggy daddy, and muse. We fell in love after I called him a loser the moment we met. Since then we've lived in Hawaii, traveled the world and added two fur babies!

When you choose DeLine Photography, you're choosing a partner and friend, not a vendor! My wife and I are professional photographers and videographers, so the selection process wasn't taken lightly for our own wedding. Cat made the short list immediately and then after meeting with her, getting to know how professionally structured her and her team are, it was a no brainer. Oh, not to mention her style of photo taking and editing is natural. Like us. If the grass is green and the sky is blue, that is how they should appear on the final product. I digress... It's not just about the business portion, but also the personal interaction. Our engagement shoot was so freeing. So much so that we all shared a drink together and took time to understand we are actually similar people with similar interests, not just a business transaction. I had the pleasure of meeting Ashley, another member of her team, as the second shooter for our wedding day and I can say without a doubt, that those things we enjoyed so much about the engagement session with Cat are also present with Ashley. I have been the photog or videographer when the groom is getting ready and I learned things from Ashley that I will use to make the next groom I work with feel comfortable and natural. When Cat arrived on our wedding day, rocking a sick blue jumper, ready for comfort and functionality, I was immediately at ease. This is a person that knows what she needs to do to be at her best and recognizing that allowed me to turn my vendor brain off and just enjoy every second of our special day. Lastly, the delivery process of sneak peeks, a surprise video from our final dance and blog post has been top notch and has given my wife and I the ability to relive so many moments together and with friends and family, even before the gallery is sent. Our interactions with those family and friends have warmed our hearts because their words about how amazing their time was at our wedding, gets backed up by those moments captured for a lifetime. If you have made it this far and haven't booked Cat yet, this is me telling you to do it now! She isn't just a vendor, she's a friend! And who doesn't have room for one more friend to celebrate one of the biggest days of their life?
