Jules and Conrad Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Purlear, NC

Hi! We're Julie and Rad. We met in Vietnam in 2016, and have lived in eight countries together since then. During our time abroad we've had plenty of adventures, seen incredible wildlife, eaten a lot of wonderful food, and honed our photography skills. We also got married in 2020! Planning a wedding during a pandemic involved an unusual set of challenges. Although our guest count was a little smaller than we originally anticipated-- the day could not have been more perfect. This was made possible only because we hired and trusted the right people. We try to instill the same trust so you can enjoy your day!

Simply Amazing! We had our engagement shoot at the Biltmore estate and it was nothing short of magical. Julie was able to capture exactly what I wanted the pictures to look like. She is a joy to work with and helped us feel relaxed and at ease. I can’t stop looking at my pictures and everyone that lays eyes on them is OBSESSED! They take your pictures and capture who you are but also make it look like a beautiful piece of art. I simply cannot say enough good things!

  • Serves Purlear, NC

I am a published photographer located in the beautiful state of Tennessee. I am a mama to two fascinating, wild little girls and I have a passion for running around, breathing in life. Photography has been a life long passion of mine; I can remember being a small child running around with disposable cameras trying to capture everything in site. Now, as an adult, photography is my way of making permanent what I, and others, hold close. I love tattoos, am romance book obsessed (honestly this career could not have been better picked) and hope to one day go sky diving! Now that you know a bit about me, I can't wait to learn about you!

From the moment we booked Beautiful Images by Toni, their communication was fast, helpful, and responsive. Toni's unique, creative, and fun style captured the excitement of our special day perfectly. She was there to help wherever she could, making everything feel seamless and just right. We are thrilled with the beautiful photos that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come. Toni and her team truly went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable.

My name is Giovanna (you can call me Gio!) and I'm a traveling wedding photographer based in North Carolina. I've photographed everywhere from the DMV, NYC, Colorado, Hawaii, Spain to tons of other locations. Having a background in photojournalism, I photograph with a documentary approach which allows an organic and authentic feel to shine through my images. If you value emotion, connection, and creative storytelling, then I'm your girl. I was born in the bustling city of NY and later moved to a horse farm in NC. I was constantly amazed by my ever changing environments and inspired to capture moments that would otherwise be lost in memory.

Gio is INSANELY talented. I’ve worked with her for several life events, the biggest and most important investment being our wedding. Gio is professional and organized, a dream for any bride to work with. She has a gift for making you comfortable in front of the camera and provides expert guidance that makes shooting with her feel effortless. Her passion for her craft is palpable, and you know it’s good when she turns the camera around and says “YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!” Every album I’ve received is a breathtakingly beautiful, cinematic keepsake of the most special moments. Her work is literal ART. I’ll never forget the emotional experience of receiving our wedding album - we literally laughed and cried for hours. Every detail and moment is so intentionally and artfully captured. It’s been two years and I still swoon over our wedding photos. I’ve had several (also obsessed) friends inquire about our wedding photography and even book their weddings with Gio. She is easily one of the best investments I made for my wedding day and I can’t say enough positive things. As a repeat client, I so look forward to working with her again in the future. No question - book with Gio!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Jonathan. We found Jonathan through a friend, and he shot both our engagement photos and our wedding! Throughout the entire process, Jonathan wasn't just our photographer -- we really felt like he has become a dear friend to us. When we wanted to film our ceremony at the last minute due to family who weren't able to travel, Jonathan and Candice said, "No problem!" and filmed our ceremony, and got us the video within a week of the wedding, too, so our grandmas can watch. We will always treasure that he did that for us. Jonathan is incredibly talented and takes beautiful candid photos as well as the perfect posed photos we needed with our family. He is incredibly prompt in responding to questions, and delivers photos at an incredible speed too! We were able to view so many wonderful photos just 2 days after our wedding, and it's just the previews! And hey, if you are throwing a PARTY, Jonathan's dance floor photos cannot be beat. TL;DR: He is a gift to wedding photographers everywhere, we love Jonathan.

Marshall Graham Photography

  • Serves Purlear, NC

Before I could walk, talk, or even hold a camera, I was busy growing up in the family wedding business. As long as I can remember, I spent my weekends at weddings. While other kids were watching Saturday morning cartoons, I was breaking child-labor laws helping my family with catering and setting up tables and chairs. (If you are a federal agent investigating child labor infractions, that was just a joke). My lovely wife, Juliah, and our baby boy, Henry, have two Boykin Spaniel pups with a ton of energy and a passion for belly rubs.

Marshall did such a beautiful job capturing our most special day starting with a sunrise ceremony at Pretty Place; followed by coffee, mimosas, & breakfast at The Cedar Mountain Cafe; and a reception at The Gaines Lodge at Table Rock State Park later that evening. As a hobbist photographer myself, I could see Marshall has a special eye for capturing the moment. We chose him for his superb use of lighting and real color, his creative use of camera angles, and his unique use of the foreground and background. He captured the two golden hours (sunrise and sunset) of our day perfectly. He is very professional - so kind and helpful to get the shots we needed. We could not be happier with his work. His pricing is reasonable considering the excellent quality. We recommend Marshall to anyone and everyone no matter your photography needs, and were so happy to have him a part of our most special day. Thank you for capturing the moments, Marshall.

Andrea-Marie is a fine art documentary wedding photographer specializing in romantic, editorial-style imagery. Blending candid moments with timeless elegance, she crafts a visual story that captures the genuine emotions of your wedding day. With a thoughtful and refined approach, Andrea provides a seamless experience, offering personalized guidance throughout your wedding journey. Serving Asheville, North Carolina, and beyond, Andrea-Marie Photography creates heirloom-quality images that stand the test of time.

Finding a great wedding photographer is about so much more than simply making it work for your budget. You need to find a person you and your partner will be completely comfortable with during the most intimate moments. After our initial call with Andrea, she left us feeling completely at ease. Andrea joined us in France for our wedding week and she instantly felt like family. So much so that without us asking she was thanked in every speech on the wedding night. Andrea's direction is perfect; fun and lighthearted for those more casual shots. She is also able to be kind and concise when wrangling guests. She had a beautiful ability to navigate family dynamics throughout the whole week. She kept us on schedule when our wedding planner, disappeared to deal with a wind storm that caused all of our plans (even plan B) to become impossible. On paper, everything that could go wrong did go wrong. The only thing that seemed to be right was having Andrea as our photographer. She's just the kind of person you want around for the highs and lows of your wedding day. We could write a novel about Andreas' character, and we could write another novel about how unbelievable her work is. We have heard from a multitude of people that our photos could be in Vogue. The shots from our wedding are mind-blowing. On so many occasions we have said to each other, "Wait is that actually us?". Andrea staged beautiful photos that felt completely genuine and never cheesy, because of the mood she sets. She also captures such incredible candid shots, her photos have that "cool girl aesthetic" that's saved on all of our Wedding Pinterest boards. She perfectly encapsulated the magic of our friends and the parts of the day that were so special. Thanks to Andreas's work, we practically forgot our reception tent almost falling over, our cake falling through a window, our bartender showing up alone, our caterer serving food we were super allergic to, and our seating arrangements becoming non-existent. Thanks to Andrea when we look back at our wedding, we have photos that show the love between us, the incredible friends and family we have, and the things that went right at our wedding. Thanks to Andrea we remember the magic and we'll never be able to repay her for that.

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shawnee was an unbelievable photographer and such a special part of our wedding weekend. From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind. She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles. She captured our guests so beautifully too, particularly the kids who were in our wedding. Everyone's personalities shone through so wonderfully and the picture are absolutely stunning. We cannot believe how many and how incredible each and every photo is. We cannot recommend Shawnee enough!

Lacey Renae Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Purlear, NC

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!

I'm so excited to be here! I can't wait to help you celebrate your amazing day! I'm a photographer, and if you need help planning, I can do that too if you book me for an elopement! I have some packages available, but if you don't see anything that hits the mark, let's talk and see if we can put something together for you!

Wilde Garland Photography was a fantastic choice for our engagement photography. From the very first interaction, Taylor and her team were kind, timely, and enthusiastic in their communication. Their work is truly vibrant, cool, and fun - capturing the energy and joy of our special day. Taylor helped prepare us and find a great spot for photos, doing a lot of legwork and preplanning to give us exactly what we wanted. We had an absolute blast working with Wilde Garland and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for wedding photographers who will make the process seamless and capture your day in a truly memorable way!
