The Inmans Photo and Video were an absolute joy to work with! From the moment we put an inquiry in to the actual day, they were nothing short of amazing to work with! While we didn't have Ashley and Camden (the owners) for our big day, their team was incredible. I have nothing but great things to say about their professionalism, their communication to each other and us, and how they made us feel as calm and at peace as you possibly can be on your wedding day!

My greatest joy as a photographer is making sure you can relive your wedding or elopement day exactly as it felt - every laugh, every tear, every piece of love, and all the little in-between moments that make your story uniquely yours. I focus on capturing your day naturally, with documentary taking center stage and just a few gentle prompts for the portraits you’ll treasure forever. My goal is for you to feel completely present—celebrating with your people, soaking in the love, and enjoying every second—while I quietly capture it all.

She commands the attention of the room to ensure we are running according to schedule and as a wedding coordinator it is extremely helpful.

Since 2010, Aaron Jay Photography has worked with dozens of families, couples and events. Aaron Jay Photography has always been a people-pleaser. We love photography because we get to see people smile, laugh and be joyful. There is no greater feeling of accomplishment than the look on a mother’s face as she sees the pictures he has taken of her children, or the look on a father’s face when he sees the pictures of his daughter on her wedding day. Aaron Jay Photography gets great satisfaction in knowing those moments we captured through a lens will be cherished forever.

We got married in the middle of a pandemic, via Zoom. Though none of our family or friends could be here, Aaron was able to come over and photograph us from a safe distance in our backyard. The pictures are absolutely amazing- better than anything I could have expected, even for a “normal” wedding. We love Aaron.

Their passion and engagement was priceless, and the quality of their work was absolutely stunning. Not only did they take our beautiful elopement photos, but they met with us beforehand and helped us build out a smooth schedule, which was invaluable since we didn't have a wedding planner. The entire day ran seamlessly, from our 6am getting ready to the final farewell at the airport at 3pm.

We could not be more grateful to have had Josh as our wedding photographer. He brought such a calm, steady energy to the day and captured everything with incredible thoughtfulness. The photos are absolutely stunning—cinematic, emotional, and full of life. He and his team managed to preserve all the little in-between moments, the ones we didn’t even know he was there for, in a way that feels both timeless and personal. Josh is professional, organized, and so easy to work with from start to finish. We felt completely comfortable in front of the camera, and the end result is a gallery of images we’ll treasure for a lifetime. Truly cannot recommend him enough.

I am so glad you are here! Based in Richmond, with a heart for travel. I can always be found snuggling with my dog or planning my next adventure. If I can sneak it in, I am usually curled up in bed with a good book. I am addicted to the smell of peppermint, eucalyptus, and the Avatar ride at Disney World (it smells great). I believe life has so many things to offer and I just want to try it all.

Rachael was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding! From our very first interaction, Rachael was enthusiastic, engaging, and energetic - we could tell right away that she was as excited about our special day as we were. The quality of her work is simply brilliant, with picture-perfect, timeless, and incredibly creative photos that beautifully captured every moment. Rachael appreciated our vision of a traditional Catholic wedding, and she went above and beyond to ensure she captured it all in her stunning photos. We could not have asked for a better photographer - Rachael and her team were a true pleasure to have by our side, and we are thrilled with the lasting memories they've given us. You cannot find a better photographer!

We had the absolute best experience with our wedding photographer and her second shooter, Anthony (her husband). From the very beginning, she made the process feel so easy and comfortable. Having an engagement shoot with her beforehand was such a great way to get to know her style and build a connection before the big day—it made us feel at ease in front of the camera. On our wedding day, she and Anthony went above and beyond. They were professional, organized, and so fun to work with. They captured every moment beautifully, all while making us feel relaxed and present. We couldn’t be happier with the photos and the memories they preserved for us. Highly recommend!

Hey there, I’m Holly! I’m a wedding and engagement photographer based in Roanoke, VA, and I’m all about capturing love stories in the most authentic and heartfelt way possible. My photography style is raw, emotional, timeless, and fun. Whether I’m photographing a tender moment between a couple or the spontaneous laughter during a celebration, I strive to capture the genuine connection and joy shared on your big day. There’s nothing more rewarding for me than freezing those fleeting moments so you can relive them for years to come. If you’re looking for a photographer who can capture your day as it unfolds, I’d love to chat!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I originally chose Holly for my photographer because we had a very specific theme for our wedding (Destiny the video game). It must have also been Destiny that she played the game and was familiar with the theme. Also, she was amazingly flexible and willing to work with our budget. Her correspondence with me was always quick and prompt. Even when it came to getting my professional pictures and sneak peaks all back, I was told it would be up to 2 months for return, but she had them back in only a week or two's time. Unfortunately, (as these things sometimes happen) Holly was not able to actually come do our photos due to getting extremely sick (which no one can help), so we had to have a stand in photographer named Justin. I know we (including herself) were all bummed she could not be there considering we were all excited and familiar with the theme. Despite not having Holly, Justin was still very nice to work with and did an amazing job. I did notice that the best pictures (of course) were the ones he had time to actually position and pose us for. I think my biggest regret was I wish I had had more time and funds to pay for more time for him to pose us and take these more less candid photos. I was sad to find that we missed out on getting individual photos of my daughters and all four of them on their own. Also there were no photos of my husband with his second oldest daughter which really upset her... But again, I don't blame the photographer for this. It really was chalked up to a lack of time. Also, one of my daughters changed into more comfortable clothes during dinner so that took away from us being able to get the nice pictures I had wanted. So I can't emphasize enough that I don't blame the photographers for this at all... It was just one of my biggest regrets on my part of the night. I again, wish I had built more time and been able to contribute more money to more pictures that could be done in this manner. I definitely recommend this team. They are so nice and do their best to check off all of the boxes that you want. They work with you and are quick and efficient with what they do.
