The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted.

Love Knot Photography

  • Serves Pawleys Island, SC

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

MSMP Media was the perfect choice for our wedding. Beyond the fact that their editing style was what we were looking for with bright photos, their team was incredible. We had the pleasure of working with their West Michigan Team. Jordan was fantastic and even got me a small birthday gift because my wedding was on my birthday! It was small details like this that really made our experience so great. She was great at getting us ready for photos with great directions. None of the wedding party were huge "photo" people, but she made us feel comfortable to allow for such great photos. Her eye for shots was fantastic. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos from everyone that we have shared them with! Beyond the photos themselves and the actual wedding day, Marisa had great communication. We received sneak peak photos within a day of the wedding and had the entire album less than a month out of the wedding. From what we have been told, this is a great timeline. We are so happy to have booked MSMP!

Weddings are full of real moments—the happy tears, the belly laughs, the chaos of getting ready, and that one friend who definitely dances a little too hard at the reception. Those are the moments I love capturing. My style is natural, relaxed, and focused on genuine connection. I’ll guide you when you need it, step back when the magic is happening, and make sure your photos feel like you, not stiff poses. Based near Charleston, I photograph weddings throughout the Lowcountry and love documenting love stories in a way that feels effortless and true to the day.

Jenna has captured so many of our important moments, from benchmark birthdays, family photos, maternity & several friends weddings as well. She is professional while being so personable. Her turn around is quick but never looks like she rushed through. She never misses the shot. Each picture she takes fully captures us & our personalities. I am not a very creative or detailed person & she still just makes everything look like it was perfectly planned & candid all at the same time. She is great with kids & husbands that don’t like their picture taken. I cry every time I see the magic she’s worked!

I began this journey several years ago (formerly as Brandi-Lee Photography). Recently, I had decided to transform my brand into a more intentional & creative art. Photography has become one way I can express myself creatively while freezing a moment in time. I'm especially drawn to documentary & lifestyle photography as I love how natural the emotions are in the photos. There is a story to be told & I look forward to helping capture it on film. I like to consider myself as a visual storyteller.

We had Brandi and her partner Brian photograph our wedding and I cannot recommend her enough!! She is extremely creative and talented. She got every single shot on our shot list and then some and the pictures turned out amazing. She is extremely kind and fun to work with and there was not a single moment that she wasn’t photographing something. She got all of our details, the traditional pictures, candid shots and some really cool creative shots as well. 10000/10 would recommend her to anyone !!!

Hi, I’m Shannon! I’m a wandering photographer and a hopeless romantic; love stories are my inspiration, and being out in nature gives me life. After 10 years working in graphic design + product development, I’m finally following my heart to full-time photography, and I’m never looking back. With family in the Southeast, Midwest, Southwest, and Northwest USA, and friends located around the world, I have an outstanding flexibility (and passion) for travel to any destination of your dreams.

Awarded Best of Zola
To say Shannon is a pleasure to work with is an understatement. She was always easy to talk with and kept in touch the months leading up to my wedding. The day before the wedding she was proactive and met with me to scope out the venue, noting all of the places that was important to us but more importantly, was very knowledgeable on what locations would work best for views and lighting. On the day of the wedding her expertise truly showed! Shannon was very professional but also down to earth and kept the day fun! She helped us with poses as the groom & I weren’t sure what we needed to do and they turned out perfect! After the wedding, she worked quickly to get all of our beautiful pictures back in a very timely manner! Shannon gave us pictures that will last a lifetime, she is an amazingly talented individual and the work she produces is truly remarkable!

Hey there! We are Hellen + Rafael and we are the photographer and videographer behind the lens! We have been married for 5 years and we love doing life together! That is why we joined our forces 5 years ago to create Hellen Oliveira Photography. We have a passion for capturing your special moments and making them last a lifetime! We are in Atlanta, GA - but we love to travel and will go anywhere to tell a good love story! Get to know us better and say hi!

Hellen and Rafael beautifully captured every moment of our journey, including our engagement photos, private wedding ceremony, and finally our traditional wedding celebration. Our private ceremony, set in the North Georgia mountains, turned into an impromptu adventure when a surprise winter storm completely changed our plans. Despite the snowy and challenging conditions, Hellen and Rafael didn’t hesitate to make the trip. They arrived with such professionalism and calm, capturing the day flawlessly as if nothing had changed. With our timeline completely thrown off and the original plan to travel to a church in town no longer possible, our intimate gathering turned into a DIY celebration. Immediate family members became the kitchen crew, bartenders, and even the officiant! Through all of this, Hellen and Rafael embraced the chaos, adapted seamlessly, and documented the day in the most beautiful and meaningful way. The video they curated from that snowy day is something we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We were equally grateful to have them return in May to capture our wedding celebration with all of our friends and extended family. Once again, their talent, professionalism, and dedication shined through. We are so thankful we chose Hellen and Rafael to document our most cherished moments. Their commitment to their clients, clear communication, and ability to adapt to the unexpected make them truly exceptional. We can't wait to work with them again for future family milestones. We highly recommend this team to anyone looking to preserve their most meaningful moments with creativity, care, and heart.

Payton was a hidden gem that I found through an intense Instagram/Facebook search for a wedding photographer. I was starting to get discouraged with the outrageous pricing of some of the big name photographers in the Birmingham, AL area and disappointed with the gallery examples of some of the cheaper options. When she messaged me back, her rates are so reasonable and affordable and her Instagram really shows how vibrant and dreamy her previous galleries have turned out. I felt like I could really trust her with capturing our special memories, I was right. Prior to the wedding, she sent out a questionnaire asking about our photography priorities and mindset. Also recently she started including an engagement session when you book her for a wedding package!! A steal! We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience with a Payton. She also is a traveling queen, so if you’re not in Birmingham, AL, don’t be discouraged!

I also frequently visit Atlanta, Valdosta, Athens, Taccoa, Florida, and North Carolina. I genuinely love traveling all over the place and wouldn’t have it any other way!

We were thrilled with Summer Heath Photography for our wedding photos! Summer was extremely responsive throughout the planning process, always getting back to emails within a day with detailed information. On the big day itself, Summer did a fantastic job capturing all of the special moments while keeping everything running smoothly. She perfectly balanced taking charge to get the shots she needed while also making sure we were comfortable and having fun. The end result is a collection of professional, high quality photos that far exceeded our expectations. My husband and I will treasure these pictures for years to come. We'd highly recommend Summer Heath Photography, especially for brides looking for an advocate to help guide you through the photography side of your wedding!

Being behind the camera isn’t just about clicking a button and editing a photo and delivering it. It’s about making sure you capture each and every detail even if the couple doesn’t realize it. I’ve become passionate in what I do because I love the smiles that it puts on people’s faces and the happy tears that stream down their face when I deliver the most beautiful album that they get to hold on to for the rest of their lives. True love is real. Capturing my couples is like bringing a romance novel to life.

Marylyn, owner of Momentous Memories, has been my go-to girl for YEARS!! She never disappoints!! She knows just how to capture the most amazing moments and love between two people. Her photography is stunning and she creates such a fun environment to be in! My husband does not like having his picture taken, but she knew exactly how to get him to open up and pose for pictures. She was great at communicating throughout the pre-wedding process and ensuring that she knew how our day was going to go. Even though on our day it poured down rain, Marylyn worked her magic and created an album of the most breathtaking photos. I will always highly recommend her to anyone I know!

Welcome to Franzi Annika Photography, where elegance meets the artistry of visual storytelling. We are Franzi and Martin – a husband-wife duo. While our European roots shape our style, our dedication to the art of photography is what guides us. Through our in-the-moment, meticulous focus on the finer details, we create a collection of genuine narratives preserved on film. These photographs will continue to reflect the emotional depth of your celebration for generations to come.

You won’t find photographers more skilled or personable than Franzi and Martin! They photographed our engagement in Charleston, SC, rehearsal dinner and wedding in Boston, MA. We cannot recommend them highly enough for your next engagement session, wedding, or event! Working with them was a dream and we feel so lucky to have met them. First, if you took all the photography away, Franzi and Martin will enhance your wedding day just by being a part of it. They are warm, funny and fit right in with the gals/guys and families. They also got along and coordinated so well with our venue, floral designer and planner - everyone loved working with them. We all felt so comfortable around them and this is reflected in the natural, beautiful photos. They are also incredibly professional, prepared and organized. The morning of the wedding, they had already scouted and planned all of the locations for the first look, family and bridal party photos, and husband/wife shots. We didn’t have to do or think about a thing in terms of photos the entire day - we just followed their lead! During the ceremony and reception, they were so subtle in taking their photos. We were able to enjoy the day without it feeling like a photoshoot. The photos were simply stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on how unique and personal our photos are. Most importantly, they feel like us, because Franzi and Martin got to know us throughout this process. We had such a hard time putting together an album because we had too many favorites to choose from! One of the guiding values for choosing our wedding vendors was to find true artists who are passionate about their craft and then trust them to work their magic. Franzi and Martin are just that - artists. We wanted them to have complete creative control and freedom and would encourage everyone who works with them to do the same - your photos will be gorgeous, and your wedding day memories will be made better because Franzi and Martin were there.
