Helen Joy Photography

5.0

Saluda, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,700

As a long time wedding and elopement photographer, I am passionate about my couples enjoying and being present on their wedding day. I take only a handful of wedding clients a year so that I stay fresh and excited. I usually shoot about 30% classic portraiture and 70% lifestyle/photo documentary. I like to tell the story through movement and candid photos, while also taking time to create striking and timeless portraits. I edit all my photos in black and white and color, with a film finish.

Helen Joy captured every natural moment I wanted! These photos will be my most prized possessions of life! So thankful for her genuine joy and attention to the most special details personal to us!

Shannon Leopold Photography

5.0

Boone, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000

Hi I'm Shannon, I was raised in the city of Los Angeles, but now reside in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I describe my photography approach as a "directed documentary". I love to blend more traditional money shots (the big kiss, walking down the aisle, first dances) with a photojournalistic angle that feels like natural snapshots rather than posed photos. My firm belief is that great photos can only reflect what naturally unfolds on your big day. I focus on candids, guest reactions, and photographing anything that helps tell a complete, and unique story. My goal is that anyone who looks at your gallery feels what it was like to be there.

Shannon has impeccable talent! Her photos always tell the most beautiful stories. You can't help but do a little "happy dance" whenever she sends a gallery your way!

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.

I absolutely loved our photographers! They were so calm and accommodating towards us, and they made sure we got the photos I requested despite many last minute weather changes and chaos during the day. I am so excited to see the photos and I will definitely be making albums once they are ready! I already know the photos will be amazing and I wish I could go back and thank my lead photographer Liana again. And her support photographer Julia was a delight! I can’t say enough to express how grateful I am for these extraordinary ladies.

My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

I cannot express how incredibly thankful we were for choosing McKenna to capture our big day. McKenna was so friendly and charismatic from the start and she fit right into the craziness and chaos of our life without missing a beat. She was flexible and super communicative, especially when it rained on the day of our engagement photos, which really helped to calm our nerves and make the session comfortable and fun. She stepped right into the flow of things on our wedding day and kept everyone on schedule and in good spirits. The photos came back better than I could've imagined and our guests haven't stopped talking about them. To say that McKenna is talented would be an understatement and I'll certainly be asking her to capture the rest of our big life moments!

Hey future newlyweds! I'm Jarrod, a wedding photographer that specializes in story telling. Tired of all the bright, overposed, cookie cutter sh*t you keep seeing? Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward. That's why I choose not to pose couples, but instead prompt you to do something like "take off your shoes and run across the field" or " get inside the car and kiss everywhere except the lips". These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately. Jarrod was such a professional and really worked every angle and background to make it look like we spent an entire day shooting. The editing was super crisp and clean and the photos came back incredibly quickly. They far exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank them enough for giving us beautiful, lasting memories from such an important time in our lives. This couple is seriously amazing - genuine, fun, and experts at what they do!! Book them!

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world! All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camcorder or camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera + tons of film. I documented everything. When film turned into digital, that was a turning point in my life. Since then, my memories, large + small, have been organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back + revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't remember without pictures!

AMANDA. ARTIST. EXPLORER. COFFEE DRINKER. TIME MACHINE. So you just got engaged and you need a photographer. Documenting all that love is a wonderful gift for yourself and everyone who loves you. My superpower is being able to see your beauty the way the people who love you do, and then capture it in awesome photos of you so that you can see it too. And there’s no awkward posing or fake smiles involved. Just goofy fun and bad jokes, and you being yourself. So come see the world through my eyes. And maybe you’ll decide you’d like to see yourself through my eyes, to see yourself the way the folks who love you see you.

Awarded Best of Zola
In a word, Amanda is extraordinary. In more words, Amanda was the best vendor decision for our wedding day. I'm a photographer, my now-husband is a videographer, and while we do not do weddings ourselves, we have both worked our fair share of them in the past, so we had a few ideas of what we were (and were not) looking for in a photographer. We could not have possibly had a better experience than we did with Amanda. On our wedding day, I forgot that I was a photographer. I knew every detail was left in her capable hands and I was able to relax and not worry about our photos even once. Meeting Amanda the first time was what solidified our choice in photographer. We already loved her portfolio of work. We already knew we'd love the photos, but meeting her in person solidified that she was the right fit for us. People don't often think about "fit" when it comes to a photographer, but it's so important. Amanda made us feel relaxed and at ease in front of the camera (that's not easy when you're always the one behind the lens), and we knew that she would be able to handle all sorts of personality types in our families and friends. Our wedding day images are thoughtful and artful and surpassed our already-high expectations. Our day was perfectly documented, and when you look at the gallery, it tells you a story - our story. Every time I look at our photos I am taken back into those moments, which is exactly what a good photo should do. I could go on and on (and on), but you get the point. Amanda's an artist and a professional and went the extra mile to make our photographs memorable and authentic, and our wedding day photography stress-free and easy. I simply cannot recommend her enough.

She was very professional, took in a few of the things that I really wanted to capture and took them to a new level, and ultimately photographed our wedding better than I could have imagined. She was extremely reasonable in price. I am definitely booking her again when we get pictures done.

Lacey is a world-travelled photographer originally from the midwest. This is a woman and Vet owned business. Her strength is primarily about seeing- the composition, the light, the dynamics between the people she is photographing. Portraits have a lean toward that as well, with a push toward the bonds between people. By working to get clients to interact, the images made reflect the connection between individuals as well as the self.

We got married 2.5 years ago on the beach, which is where we had met 4 years before that. Lacey was truly one of the great choices of the day. Before she arrived she began helping us plan and think of details we could not anticipate. Her experience and professionalism really showed before, during and after, but one thing not anticipated and so blessed by was her friendly, easy-going enthusiasm. No matter the weather changes, the mic malfunction from our DJ/friend, or even things going late- she was supportive and helpful. We had a small house-warming reception afterward. Seeing her dance while taking photographs was fun and helped her blend right in with everyone. I still have friends asking me to give recommendations for photographers, and I'll tell them about Lacey every time. A great choice!

Wow, where to begin! Arie did a phenomenal job as our wedding photographer! We found Arie through the business Once Like A Spark, and with scheduling her short notice (2 weeks before the wedding), she did an amazing job capturing our vision and style. We honestly love each photo she took and had a really difficult time choosing 60 out of 500 for our album! Arie communicated really well before and throughout the wedding day, was on time to capture getting ready photos, and was attentive throughout the whole night. We admired how she took creative liberty and made sure to capture all the key moments as well as the small, sweet moments too. Even during dinner time, Arie made sure we got photos with each guest, which we greatly appreciated. While we only spent one day together, Arie seems like such a great person with a passion for capturing wedding days with love, care, and a dash of humor.

Kristen and her team were incredible to work with for all of our wedding needs. Not only were the pictures incredible, but Kristen really took the time to understand what I was looking for and honed in on the details I cared about. She also helped me develop my entire timeline and was always handy to provide additional wedding recommendations too. Her energy is contagious which is really really helpful to have on your wedding day with all the nerves. My entire bridal party loved hanging out with her & her assistant photographer as well. Seriously could not recommend enough.

Erica did an amazing job! We had an idea of what we both wanted for our photos and she took those broad ideas and location ideas and made it happen! Because of some weather concerns, she was able to be sure that the location we went to had a great second option if we needed it. Since we did engagement photos with her it made our wedding day seamless and fluid. The photos turned out a million times better then I could have ever imagined. She is a great person to work with and I will definitely be booking her for our future photo needs.

I simply cannot say enough wonderful things about Sean. From the moment we contacted him, he was professional, warm, and dedicated to creating an amazing experience for his clients. I am normally very camera shy, but Sean was so easy to work with that he put me at ease immediately. And as a cherry on top, he sent our photos back within the week! When we were choosing wedding photographers, we wanted someone whose work would transport us back to our wedding day. His photos captured the small, intimate moments that we will treasure most about the happiest day of our lives- the laughs as the wedding party prepared together, the moment my father saw me in my dress for the first time, the roller coaster of emotions as we read our vows to each other, the rowdy dancing at the end of the night. I can look at a picture and remember exactly how I felt at that moment. To Sean, the photographer who captures joy- from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Know that you have created something special that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. It is clear that you take great pride in your work and it was truly wonderful to work with you.

My photos are emotion-centered and in the moment. I shoot a combination of 35mm film, polaroids, and digital photography. My goal is to notice the right moments and turn them into timeless, artistic, photos made with love - not photos that look like everyone else's.

Jess was amazing, she was professional and understood what we wanted better than we did. The passion she has for photography showed in every word she said, and every picture she took. We’re convinced that Jess must have a twin because it isn’t possible for one person to move around the way she did and capture every moment from the best angles. We will never use another photographer for any event besides Jess.

Choose Leah for your wedding day! She’s friendly, makes the process easy, and has a wonderful eye! Leah saw a stump washed up on the shore next to our ceremony site and reccomended we take some photos with it. I had to climb down a small slope in my huge dress and heels to get to it and it was SO worth it. Those photos are my favorite from that day. I would hike anywhere for a photo if she recommended it! She is a true artist. She made our day feel like art and I am so grateful. She also took the photos for a couple of my friends’ weddings and I can confidently say she doesn’t miss! 10/10!

I've spent years photographing weddings and honing my craft, I've got you covered no matter what. Also, I bring snacks. C. Amazingly personal photographs where you don't feel like a stranger in your own wedding album. I want to give you a fun experience, and allow you to be fully present in the moment.

It's hard to put into words how amazing Alex is. Our wedding day was our third opportunity to work with Alex. He did our engagement photos and was also the photographer for a friend's wedding that we were in. We think it was definitely fate that Alex moved from Philly to Colorado around the same time we did. We can;t imagine having anyone else photograph our wedding. Alex makes you feel like you're not in front of a camera; nothing feels posed or boring. He really has a special way of making you feel totally comfortable. From consultation to booking to the big day and to the photo reveal, Alex treats you like you're his only client. Every interaction with him is truly awesome. Our friends and family at the wedding absolutely loved Alex. They said he made them feel at ease, especially with the friends/family group shots. No one felt that the photographer was "in the way," in fact they were grateul that they could grab Alex and ask him to take specifc photos. We are beyond thrilled with all of our wedding photos. There were so many unique shots that we haven't seen from other photographers. Being able to do the big photo reveal a little over a month after the wedding was an incredible way to relive the day. We would hire Alex again in a heartbeat, and we're so glad to be able to call him a friend.

Before every session, I create a story of poses for each client, carefully curated for each person’s personal story.

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.
