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 was the first vendor that we booked for our October 2025 wedding and she was a star from the beginning! We set up a call, discussed our vision for our wedding and then moved forward with an easy to set-up payment plan for our photography package! It included engagement photoshoot and a full day of photography! Molly was very communicative and knowledgable and made us feel so comfortable. Highly recommend her for your next occasion!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Working with Portraits By Sean was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication style was professional, efficient, and genuinely kind throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly one-of-a-kind - their photos are gorgeous, superb, innovative, and incredibly detail-oriented and precise. The team of two photographers and a videographer was amazing, capturing so many special moments that will forever stay with us from our wedding day. We were especially grateful that they were able to capture our private final dance, which means the world to us. After our wedding, when our oldest son was leaving for bootcamp, Sean thoughtfully sent us additional photos that had been taken during the celebration, which are now cherished keepsakes for our family. I honestly can't say enough good things about our experience with Portraits By Sean - they exceeded our expectations in every way and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories they've preserved for us.

The Smiths Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Orange, VA

We are Amy & Jackson Smith, a husband and wife team, who met through photography. We fell in love and got married in our own backyard right here in Charlottesville. We feel so fortunate to meet such genuine people and have the opportunity to tell their stories. Since 2014 we have shot over 150 weddings at more than 60 venues. We are based in Charlottesville, Virginia and love photographing weddings here as well as Richmond, Washington DC, and beyond.

Amy and Jackson were the absolute best choice for our wedding photographers. From our first communication to our pre-wedding engagement photo shoot, Amy made sure we felt comfortable and took her time to get to know us and figure out what was most important to us with regards to photography. Amy's calm energy and Jackson's whimsical spirit are the perfect complement to one another and helped make us feel relaxed and joyful. Our engagement photos were planned for an incredibly foggy day and Amy and Jackson were incredibly flexible - taking some very dramatic photos of us at Blue Ridge Parkway and some more casual pictures the next day in Belmont. Leading up to the wedding, Amy did a great job communicating with us and helping us plan out a timeline. On the day of the wedding, they helped us stay on schedule but didn't force anything. They were on the dancefloor with us and got some incredible shots. I feel so fortunate to have gotten to work with them!

Ayesha Ahmad Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,400
  • Serves Orange, VA

I’ve been a wedding photographer for 11 years, but I’ve been an artist since I could hold a pencil – and I’ve been in love with stories just as long. Of all the ways to create a life around storytelling and art, I’m so glad to have found this one: weddings are filled with stories both intimate and profound, and with elements of beauty that delight the artist in me. I love the challenge of seeking, finding and capturing the beauty I see, and telling your story as I see it unfolding before me.

Ayesha was an absolute dream to work with! She was so good about planning all the different kinds of shots we wanted ahead of time. She was willing to get on as many phone calls with me as needed during the planning process (I had so many questions beforehand)! And she was wonderful at reminding me of all the different kinds of photos/portraits we should get. Our wedding was a typical South Asian wedding, which meant we had 3 different days of events, and Ayesha covered all of them flawlessly. Needless to say, it was A LOT for one photographer to handle, but she did it all beautifully and we (including our families) couldn't be happier with the final photos. We cannot recommend her enough!

Rob Garland’s photography has been featured in everything from The New York Times and The Washington Post to The Knot, Southern Living, and the internationally acclaimed, Bride and Bloom. He has documented everything from celebrity nuptials to small intimate weddings and continues to show a drive and passion that allow him to capture sensitive images with a time-honored charm.

Rob was such a delight to work with - he was so responsive to emails and calls from both my wedding planner and me. He was friendly, takes the time to understand your vision, works with an excellent team, and is super flexible. He turned our images around in less than 10 days and told us to just let him know if there were any other edits we’d like (for example making certain photos black and white). He effortlessly and professionally captured the day - even when it meant he was standing in the pouring rain for pictures! Would absolutely recommend him as a photographer

I'm a full-time freelance photographer, and have been photographing weddings since 2008. Risking understatement, I love being a photographer. When it comes to weddings, I photograph them in my favorite style -- journalistic. Nothing makes me happier than finding cool, off-the-wall moments at your wedding that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. Well, unless those moments happen to be in supreme sunset light. I try to be as hands-off as I can, while still providing direction when needed. Your wedding won't be a Hollywood production photo-shoot with me, it'll be a party with your family and friends that you will be able to enjoy to the fullest!

I loved all of the candids taken of the guests which is something I wanted during the ceremony and reception. We were able to see parts of the night that we would have missed. The planning team was also great- Hannah was very helpful in giving me an example timeline ahead of our call. We’re so pleased with our choice to select OLAS!

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.

We had a COVID disaster strike just days before our wedding when our photographer canceled. We called around to nearly 20 photographers in the area 3 days before and Allyse was an immediate fit. She offered to shoot the event on her off-day and not only that, but got her husband to support with groomsman prep. This was something we weren’t even planning on having. Alyse was extremely punctual, professional and we cannot thank her enough for making the day that much more special. During the shoots and the day, she expertly managed the shots, participants and guests. She gave us all the shots we specifically asked for and added so many more all the while making the shots fun and exciting. She worked well with kids and kept the experience light and fun. She gave excellent direction to ensure the best photo, which my wife and I need because we are not used to doing photo shoots. We cannot say enough good about Alyse and her husband.
