Breana V Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Pickens, SC

I've always held such a high priority on making memories that will last lifetime. This is one of the many reason I started a photography business. Just a little bit about me, I'm 24 years. Married to my high school sweetheart, Noah. We moved to Upstate, SC from our home state of sunny south Florida to start a life as newlyweds. If you are a lover of moody, intimate and timeless photography, let's connect. I would love to work together :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Breana is so professional and knowledgeable! She took two people who were very camera shy and helped create some of the most stunning photos ever taken of either of us. She shot both our rehearsal dinner and wedding. Very communicative during the process, keeping me informed on when payments were due, when to expect sneak peeks and a full gallery, a very detailed questionnaire to understand our vision for the big day, etc. She and her husband are such kind, gentle souls, we were so happy to have them there! Photography was the area of wedding planning that was most important to me, and it was so worth it, she did a phenomenal job. Definitely will refer her to anyone who needs wedding photos in the GVL area and beyond!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have used KAM Collective for my senior photos, engagement session, Bridal Portraits, and Wedding photos & videos. I have had an incredible experience with Kimberly and Avery each time. They are easy to contact and respond quickly. Kimberly has always been open to any ideas I have for photos, she also has given me great ideas. For my Wedding Kimberly was willing to attend meetings with my wedding planners to establish the most efficient way for all the photos I wanted to be taken. She also followed the schedule that was made perfectly on wedding day which made the day stress free for me! Kimberly makes getting your picture back in a reasonable amount of time a huge priority- which is very rare. She also has you multiple sneak peaks ready within a day. Avery filmed my entire ceremony along with a montage video of the whole day. We wanted three songs for the video and he made them blend together so well. Avery had many behind the scenes shots and I never even knew he was there. I highly recommend KAM Collective for any photography/videography needs but especially for Weddings.

Terrell Martin Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Pickens, SC

My name is Terrell Martin, and I am based in upstate SC. I have always enjoyed photography because it is the one way I am able to seemingly pause time, and capture a moment that is sure to only happen once. These moments are what make the memories you will one day cherish and share with your loved ones. When I take photographs, I’m not merely thinking about the “here and now.” I’m imagining generations down the the road being told your story through snapshots. This is why I strive to create timeless images. I prefer a style that is true to color, making every attempt to avoid trendy edits that won’t age well.

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

From the moment we booked Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. as our photographers, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication throughout the planning process was incredibly helpful, reliable, and reciprocal - they made us feel comfortable and supported every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, our photographers were diligent, supportive, and truly inspiring. They helped us feel at ease and captured all the special moments beautifully, including the gorgeous dip and flowing dress photos during our Cocktail Hour couple's session. The final photos and videos were flawlessly edited and exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful to the Once Like a Spark team for helping make our wedding day vision come to life, and we would highly recommend them to any couple looking for personable, talented, and dedicated photographers and videographers.

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.

I’m based in North Georgia, but always happy to travel wherever the love (and the good vibes) take me...

Carly was absolutely incredible. Going into the day, I was nervous about a particular part and she talked with me on the phone coming up with solutions to avoid drama. She is truly one of kind and the sweetest person you will ever meet. We had rain that had us skip some pictures before hand, but she was able to make it up later so efficiently and I never felt rushed or stuck behind the camera because she just made it seem so fun. She made our pictures turn out perfect despite some of the implications of rain. In the reception she was so interactive with the guests; everyone said how much they enjoyed her presence. She offers this keepsake box that is just so special and she got us our pictures SO fast. I can’t wait for more life events to be able to have her take more photos for us in the future.

Jessica was our wedding photographer and she did a fantastic job! She reached out to me before the wedding with a detailed questionnaire about the wedding schedule/different photos I would like/my favorite picture locations at the venue. On the day of, she had everything organized! Usually getting different group photos can be a hassle, but Jessica had a list of names ready and we got all of our formal group photos done within 10-15 minutes. My husband and I were very impressed and appreciated how efficiently Jessica worked! And besides this, she was wonderful to work with! She was very friendly, kind, and relaxed, and made sure to focus in on the special moments of our day. My husband and I also need prompts for how to pose, and she guided us through our couple portraits! We just got the pictures back today and I couldn’t be more happy with how they turned out!

I chose not to have a videographer for my wedding, and had it covered only by photography. I sit here now, barely two weeks out from my wedding, already enjoying my entire wedding photo gallery from these amazing photographers that captured every detail as if they were using video recorders instead! Not only did they guarentee quick turn around on my photos (I think their words were "before you're back from your honeymoon") but the quality of work speaks for itself in the photos. They were such an joy to work with- often splitting up to cover ground and their easy banter with each other puts you right at ease when they're pointing those big cameras at you. I will never be able to thank them enough for making our day so special, and I'll enjoy it with their photos for the rest of our days.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!
