Jeff was truly the MVP of my wedding day. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. He knew exactly where to put people for the best outcomes. He made me feel confident and directed me every step of the way. He was professional and respected everyone’s time. He took pictures of my wedding in late October, and really highlighted the beautiful fall foliage. All of my pictures look dreamy and magical. Couldn’t ask for a better photographer.

Maria Sollecito Creative Productions

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Raleigh, NC

I’m a mother to an adventurous little boy, a personable little girl, and wife to an amazing man! Loving these three in my life started my venture in stumbling across photography. I’ve always been fascinated by it, and found myself studying it in many forms. It didn’t take long to realize this profession would allow me to be myself: passionate, fun, and bold! I came to a crossroad after my son was born of whether I should return to work or pursue my passion with photography. Let’s just say I took a jump and went into business around 2012. It’s been a daring journey with the most awesome clients ever!

Awarded Best of Zola
Maria is the best photographer I have had the privilege to work with. From before/during/after our wedding she made every step special and magical. Our family and bridal party LOVED her and the humor/fun personality she brought to group photos. We love Maria and cannot wait to work with her in the future.

Hi friend! I'm Tianna, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Raleigh, North Carolina. Originally, I'm from coastal NC but after graduating college, I settled in the Triangle and have been loving it ever since. I'm a girl mama, avid fantasy reader, travel enthusiast, and true crime junkie. There is nothing I love more than cuddling with my toddler (when she lets me), reading a great book, and drinking a cup of coffee. Growing up, I never imagined I would be a wedding photographer. I honestly thought I would be an author! While I'm not putting pen to paper, I am still telling my couples' love stories and loving every minute of it!

She has captured our wedding, my college graduation, gender reveal, maternity, lifestyle, boudoir, anniversary, and so much more. She is extremely professional, understanding, and personable.

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Awarded Best of Zola
Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

J+M Event Co

  • Florist
  • Serves Raleigh, NC

At J+M Event Co, we believe the best things in life are worth celebrating! We would love to customize your perfect wedding. We provide fresh and faux floral, decor rentals and set up, and coordinating packages. We can’t wait to meet you!

I connected with J&M about 4-5 months out from the wedding through my wedding coordinator. They had some pics of past work, not much that was really my style, so I was nervous about that but they assured me they could customize anything to my taste. Since they didn’t have what I was looking for they said they would order what I wanted. The problem started when to secure my date they required I sign a contract for a specific number/type of center pieces (charging a set price/centerpiece) before I had my venue booked. I ended up needing to change the numbers we had agreed on when I finally booked my venue because we had estimated for the contract since I didn’t know how many of each table size/shape the venue would have. J &M did not want to let me change the numbers on the contract (which we had both agreed at the time we came up with them were only estimates) and only did so once my wedding coordinator contacted them about it. They also were not able to give me any pictures of what my center pieces would look like at any point before the wedding which was a little scary as a bride who likes to have everything planned out well ahead of time. The centerpieces and decorations ended up looking great the day of the wedding, but the whole process was more stressful than I would have preferred. Their communication was mainly through email and often they would not reply for over 24 hours, which was frustrating if we needed to have a 2-4 email exchange about something because it could take days to resolve a simple question. Their pricing is very competitive in the market and the work they did ended up looking amazing, but overall working with them added a lot of stress to my planning process. They also did my bouquets and decorated the arch I provided and those two aspects came out looking wonderful as well. I would recommend them if you are super chill and don’t care to be involved in any details and have your venue booked by the time you contact them.

I went with Prestige Planning for my wedding planner because of the ease of use. I met with my certified wedding planner before I booked and she was amazing and explained the whole process. I knew I could plan my own wedding but I’m not a pro at all so I knew I would need a lot of help. I didn’t want to spend the money on a full wedding planner so going this route was absolutely perfect. They were with me every step of the way. I especially liked the SOS calls they give because I needed them to assist with a vendor I was having an issue with. I knew I was going to need help with logistics and stuff on the actual day of my wedding because I wouldn’t have time to do so, so I added the coordination add on to my package. So I got my wedding planned with major help from an actual certified planner and coordination for my wedding day for less than others are charging for just coordination. Just go for it. You will not be disappointed at all! They really went above and beyond and did more for me than what they had outlined they would do. I got more than my money worth.

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!

**Please inquire through my website. I do not respond to messages on Zola.** Hey there! My name's Nick, I'm a wedding photographer and videographer from NW Georgia. My goal is to provide an authentic story of your wedding while providing a comfortable and fun experience! Whether you're having an intimate gathering or a grand celebration, I'm here to listen, understand your vision, and bring it to life.

One of my best friends is also a part-time wedding photographer, and she often works with Nick. She photographed my brother's wedding with Nick as her second shooter, and all the photos turned out amazing. When I asked her who I should pick for my wedding photographer (since she was my maid of honor), she immediately recommended Nick and put us in contact. He was very professional during every interaction and always responded promptly. We opted for the package that had a second shooter, included an engagement shoot, and was for a 10-hour day. The quality of his photos for the price is unmatched. It was by far the best investment of the wedding. We did the engagement shoot about a month before the wedding, and he let us pick the locations. The pictures were also returned within the same week. It is well worth doing the engagement shoot because it gives you the opportunity to figure out how each other works, and it made our wedding day that much more relaxing and wonderful. He and his second shooter arrived early on the wedding day and immediately went to work scoping out shooting locations and getting detail shots. He helped make sure we were on time during the morning and afternoon leading up to the ceremony without making me feel rushed at any time. His second shooter was the perfect complement to his personality, which helped all our pictures look stunning while our personalities and real smiles were shining through. We got sneak peek pictures the day after the wedding, and the rest of the portfolio was ready 6 weeks later, which was very fast for someone with a full-time job outside of photography. He kept us updated on when pictures would be ready, which was highly appreciated. When the portfolio was ready, he scheduled a Zoom call with us to show us how to work the website and give us an opportunity to ask any final questions before the site was published. It was a nice personal touch to closing out that chapter of the wedding. Everyone who has looked at the pictures have said how stunning and beautiful they turned out! We cannot wait to have our favorites printed and hanging on our walls to look at for the rest of our lives. We highly recommend Nick!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kiersten for my wedding, and I can't recommend her enough. From the moment we met, her professionalism and passion for photography were evident. She took the time to understand our vision and was super easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. On the big day, Kiersten was a true pro—capturing all the special moments without being intrusive. She managed to blend into the background while still getting all the key shots we wanted. The candid shots really stood out. The final photos blew us away. The quality and creativity were top-notch, and we received countless compliments from our friends and family.

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.

The first thing people mention about our wedding is how beautiful the pictures turned out. I was specifically looking for a candid-style photographer whose exposure remained consistent & correct throughout the night, and Ayesha delivered more than I could have hoped for. She was polite, professional, and so fast! Not only was her turnaround time short, but she practically managed to be in two places at once to capture every perfect shot. We are so grateful that we got the chance to work with her, and look forward to hiring her again for our next special occasion.

The day that you exchange vows with the love of your life should one filled with peace, love, pure bliss...and a whole lot of fun! My job doesn't stop at creating timeless photos for you, it extends to offering you a sense of peace and showing you that a wedding/elopement day doesn't have to be stressful. Photography began as a passion for me and I make sure to hold on tight on to that and bring that passion into every event, every couple I photograph.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having Kalypso on our team as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! My husband is historically not the best at genuine looking forced smiles, yet our wedding pictures all turned out so well! Yes, he was very happy on our wedding day, but in the moment when you tell him to pose, it usually doesn't go so well. Kalypso has all sort of tricks up her sleeve to fix this, and she is such a joyous ball of energy that she has us legitimately laughing and smiling the entire time anyways. She was so easy to coordinate with, and her communication and promptness are on point. On to the most important part though - the pictures! They are AMAZING!! They perfectly capture the best day of our lives and work in all the little details so well. We are having a hard time figuring out what to frame where in our house - there are that many PERFECT pictures. It was Kalypso's first day shooting a wedding at our specific venue, and you would would think it was her own house based on how well she captured it all and worked so well in the space. I will certainly be trying to work with her for future life photoshoots and recommending her to all my friends!

Joshua's images made our photos look like they could belong in a magazine, the images are timeless and sharp! For the price and quality, highly recommend. We look forward to booking him again in the future, very happy!

Hey there, lovely! I've been in the event planning industry since 2018. When I'm not wrapped up in all things life or planning, you can find me reading, working out, organizing, crafting, and binge watching a show. You can also find me at Osage House as a Client Relations Manager!

KDT Brides was an absolute pleasure to work with. Her communication style is prompt, kind, and thorough, ensuring I was always informed and at ease throughout the whole process. The quality of her work and the value she provides is unmatched - she is truly a dedicated and honest professional who go above and beyond to make a bride's day special. For example, Kasarah worked after hours on multiple occasions to take care of extra details and tasks to make a brides wedding day even more magical. I would highly recommend KDT Brides to any couple planning their special day.

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!

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Serves Raleigh, NC

Jade Stone Pictures prides itself on bringing a cinematic eye and documentary storytelling to wedding films. With Bill’s background in documentary filmmaking and Sarah’s creative approach to storytelling, we craft authentic, emotionally rich wedding films that feel as timeless as they do personal.

Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine passion for storytelling made us feel so comfortable. They took the time to understand our story, our vision, and what mattered most to us. The final product that came out was so us! It doesn't feel staged or cheesy, and feels like a genuine capture of who we are and how special our day was. I love showing our video to people who couldn't make it to the wedding or watching with a group of friends who just want to relive the day. We are very happy with our investment.
