Vanessa Ray Photography

My goal is to capture every part of your story. The parts you planned for so long, the parts that didn’t go exactly as planned, and the parts that will make you laugh and cry with joy when you look back years later. I want them all, because I would want nothing less for myself, and because this part of your life, even if it isn’t exactly what you thought it would be, might be the most beautiful piece of all.

From our first conversation, Vanessa Ray made us feel heard and asked thoughtful questions that showed she really cared about capturing our day. She was kind and professional throughout the entire process, and her pricing was incredibly reasonable for everything she delivered before, during, and after the wedding. What meant the most to us was how she helped our daughters feel involved and seen in the celebration, and how wonderful she was with our parents, especially our older dads. She has such a sharp eye for detail and caught adorable moments between us that we would have completely missed. The photos are stunning and truly exceeded what we expected for the cost. We can't recommend Vanessa Ray Photography enough.

After being around weddings for years, I've found my place in specializing in intimate weddings, where I aim to encapsulate the distinct essence of every couple's love story through my lens. From the quiet glances to the joyous tears, having had the privilege to witness and immortalize numerous heartfelt moments, I'm dedicated to ensuring that your wedding day is documented in a way that resonates profoundly with your unique journey together.

Dayna is so great! She has such an incredible eye for photos and has a really beautiful way of catching moments. She also has a personality/demeanor that is so easy to get along with, and I really vibed with her. We got our wedding photos back in 5 weeks, and they are all absolutely GORGEOUS. She listened to what we wanted and what we were nervous for (and repeated it back to us to make sure she understood). I am so happy we booked Dayna and I wholeheartedly recommend her to other couples planning their wedding!

We could not have asked for a better photography and videography team for our wedding reception! Bayo was truly a mind reader — constantly in the right place at the right time and somehow captured every special moment without ever feeling staged or forced. Arlene worked quietly behind the scenes, capturing every emotional, joy-filled detail so naturally that it feels like we’re reliving the night every time we watch our video. Their professionalism, creativity, and teamwork made the entire experience effortless. We’ll cherish these memories forever!

Hi, I’m Rebecca—the heart and eye behind the lens. I’m a wedding photographer drawn to the quiet, in-between moments—the ones that often go unnoticed but mean everything. The soft glances, the gentle laughter, the way your hands find each other without thinking. Those are the moments that tell your story honestly. With a refined, minimal approach, I focus on creating imagery that feels effortless and timeless. My goal isn’t just to document how your day looked, but to preserve how it felt. The emotions, the connection, the intimacy that makes your love uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Rebecca was an absolute dream from start to finish—starting with our initial meeting, through our engagement shoot, and all the way to our wedding day! She is incredibly friendly, and she has a unique ability to make professional photos feel easy, natural, and fun. When my husband and I began searching for a wedding photographer, we knew we needed someone we felt completely comfortable with on such an important day, and Rebecca was the perfect choice. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We also feel so lucky to have worked with her amazing 'day of' team—Luisa, Chris, and Maggie. They were all not only professional but also incredibly warm and relaxed, making the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. We truly feel blessed to have had Rebecca and her team capture our special day! We look forward to working with Rebecca again in the future.

You’re not just planning a wedding. You’re creating memories that will last a lifetime.. And I don’t take that lightly.

My wife and I had nothing short of a wonderful experience with Stephanie. She was very helpful and coordinated in planning the photo schedule, and made sure that everything happened on time despite certain delays! Stephanie was always polite and professional, easy to work with, fairly priced, and flexible (we had to have a relatively late notice change of venue). And finally, the photos were beautiful!

With over 40 five-star Google Reviews, and more than a decade of photography experience documenting adventurous couples and outdoor athletes, I’m stoked and ready to find creative ways to tell the story of your epic day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Andy for my daughter’s mountain wedding (Bella and Kevin Phillips) was hands down the best decision we made. Yes, he’s not cheap — but after seeing the photos and watching how he guided us through the entire day, I honestly feel like he’s worth even more. We were lucky to afford him when we did, because his talent is on a level that won’t stay accessible to normal people for long. Andy has this chill, friendly personality that instantly puts everyone at ease. He knows the area and helped us plan the entire wedding from start to finish. He’s a true artist with an incredible eye for beauty and real, unscripted moments. Nothing staged, nothing forced — just genuine emotion and the kind of shots you can’t recreate even if you tried. Many of the shots he took, especially the veil shots, look like they belong in a magazine. Every single photo feels alive and full of heart. It’s honestly not possible to give him a high enough rating — five stars just isn’t enough.

I’ve been a Raleigh, NC local since 2014—by way of Chicago, by way of military brat, so, all over. With a background in theater, I know how to read a room, anticipate moments, and blend seamlessly into your day while offering gentle direction.. An avid traveler and lifelong student of the world, I’m fascinated by other cultures, languages, and traditions—curiosity that naturally fuels my love for storytelling through photography. Behind the scenes, my Type A nature keeps every detail organized and flowing smoothly. Outwardly? Calm, upbeat, and ready to pivot. I’d love to document your story—and I can’t wait to hear from you.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you’re searching for a wedding photographer, look no further—you’ve found the best. Any couple would be incredibly fortunate to have Brighid from Oz Images capture their special day. We wholeheartedly give her a 10/10 recommendation. From the very beginning, Brighid impressed us with her professionalism, warmth, and creativity. She took the time to get to know us, understand our vision, and figure out exactly how to capture the images we would value. Her communication was clear, her pricing was reasonable, and every interaction was straightforward and professional. We weren’t interested in many posed or overly formal shots. She planned and executed a few beautifully composed portraits, but what truly blew us away were the candid moments she captured so effortlessly. These photos told the real story of our wedding—a heartfelt, joyful celebration shared with 300 of our closest friends and family. Brighid has a gift for recognizing and preserving the spontaneous, meaningful interactions that make a wedding so personal and memorable. She developed a playful yet respectful rapport with our wedding party, which was exactly what our personality-filled group needed! She became part of the celebration—not just an observer—sharing in our joy and reflecting it back to us through her lens. She captured the subtle dynamics of our relationships with grace, humor, and tenderness. During the ceremony and reception, Brighid worked like a photo ninja—always present, never intrusive. She caught genuine moments of connection: laughter, tears, shared glances—photos that make us feel like we’re reliving the day every time we look at them. Our final album doesn’t just show who was there; it reveals how deeply loved and supported we felt on that day. Her turnaround time was lightning-fast. We received a sneak peek within hours and the full, beautifully edited album shortly after. Her editing style is natural, vibrant, and timeless—it elevated every shot without making them feel overly processed. A particularly meaningful note: due to a last-minute illness, my parents couldn’t attend the wedding. Thanks to Brighid’s thoughtful coverage and the help of a little technology, they felt like they were right there with us. These images mean the world to us. We revisit our wedding photos often. They make us laugh, cry, and feel so grateful all over again. Having Oz Images document our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Brighid didn’t just take pictures—she captured the spirit of our marriage and the love that surrounded us. We will treasure these images for a lifetime.

I'm an award winning photographer based in Wilmington and have be voted Community’s choice photographer for the last 3 years. I specialize in creating emotional, true-to-color wedding images that feel just as meaningful years later as they did in the moment. My style blends natural light with creative flash photography to capture both the soft intimate moments and the fun high-energy memories of your day. I’m not just there to take photos — I’m there to help you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present while preserving your story in a genuine way.

From our first conversation with Misty Lynn Photography, we knew we had found the right photographer for our wedding day. She has this calm, assured way about her that puts everyone at ease, and her talent is undeniable—her work truly gets better by the day like aged wine. Misty went out of her way to scout our venue and capture some beautiful beach shots, and during the shoot she guided us through poses while keeping things light and funny. She made both my husband and I feel confident in front of the camera, and our guests were so comfortable around her that the moments felt genuine and natural. The final photos are breathtaking and packed with detail—every shot shows her real talent and passion for her craft. We couldn't have asked for a more engaging and skilled photographer to document our special day.

Hey, I'm Bri, a wedding and couples photographer based in Wilmington, NC, shooting all over the East Coast and beyond. I work in digital and film, mixing in 35mm, medium format, Polaroids, and Super 8 depending on your day. I'm not chasing posed shots. I'm after the real moments, the ones that happen in between, because that's where the honest emotion lives. My own wedding taught me exactly what I didn't want in a photographer, and it's shaped how I show up for every couple since. I pay attention, stay close but out of the way, and I'd love to hear about your day.

I hope at the end of reading this review, your heart is beaming with joy and excitement knowing that this is THE person who can capture those special moments you want to look back on years down the road. Long story short - CA girl moves to OH. My love and I created a home. Bri is now family. I knew all I had to do was have an Americano ready and outfits laid out. In seconds we were laughing and rollin. Bri captured the warm light that pours through the blinds of our big loft windows so magically. Her energy is genuine and calming. I loved that her style was more candid and authentic than structured because as Austin and I sipped coffee, danced around and loved each other, she was capturing those moments most dream about – the butterfly smiles, the gestures sometimes you think only you two notice, the kisses given that make your heart full. What I didn't truly realize, was how important it is to have photographer that makes you feel comfortable. This is a person seeing the most intimate, important moments of your life and I couldn't imagine anyone else being behind the lens capturing those other than Bri. I feel so fortunate to share some big life moments with Bri and can't recommend her enough. We love her and know you will too!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!

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.

Melissa is an absolutely incredible photographer to work with. She did our engagement photoshoot, our wedding day photoshoot assisted by Chelsea, and she shot some photos at our wedding afterparty. From the very first moment we talked to Melissa, we knew she truly cared about our vision. We live out of state, and she had multiple video chats with us and we texted inspiration photos back and forth for months. She bought special film for our engagement photoshoot just to capture our vision. She could not have done a better job! She was professional, thorough, on time, and went above and beyond at every opportunity. You won't find a more talented or harder working photographer at her price point, and as an added bonus, she's an incredibly sweet person and a real treat to hang out with :)

Jeff was truly the MVP of my wedding day. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. He knew exactly where to put people for the best outcomes. He made me feel confident and directed me every step of the way. He was professional and respected everyone’s time. He took pictures of my wedding in late October, and really highlighted the beautiful fall foliage. All of my pictures look dreamy and magical. Couldn’t ask for a better photographer.
