From our first interaction, Sean and his team at Portraits By Sean were prompt, personable, and clear in their communication. Their exceptional, professional, and quick work captured the essence of our special day perfectly. Sean was laid back and brought great energy to our wedding, seamlessly capturing all the important moments without ever being intrusive.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Smithville, AR

I photograph with the understanding that one day, these images will become part of a family’s most treasured history. Long after the day has passed, they will hold the light, the emotion, and the quiet beauty that words cannot. My approach is rooted in presence—observing with care, honoring what unfolds naturally, and preserving the fleeting moments that often matter most. I believe photographs should do more than document how things looked; they should return you to how it felt to be there, surrounded by love, meaning, and connection.

Awarded Best of Zola
Planning a wedding on your own can be a stressful and intimidating process. You would think picking a photographer would be a hard decision but if you’ve seen MyKenzie’s work, you would know it’s the easiest decision I made throughout my whole wedding planning process. I’ll never forget how special she made our day. Leading up to our wedding day, she was always super responsive and helpful with my questions, along with timeline of the photos I wanted. The day of, she was on time and really made the photos so much fun and special. She is super creative on poses, I had no idea what poses I wanted so I left it up to her and she blew us away and made it so beautiful. Our day would not have been that special without her. If you are looking for a photographer, she’s your gal!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

Hey there! My name is Angelina and I started practicing photography in August 2020, but I've had an interest in it since I was 13 years old (I really wanted to shoot for National Geographic). Now I've expanded into portraits, engagement sessions, and I've done small weddings. I'm a Chicago native but I've also lived in Iowa, Arizona, Nebraska, Texas, & now Mississippi!! What can I say, I enjoyed a somewhat nomadic lifestyle. I also just got married on August 31st, so I know how it feels to be both a service provider and a customer! My style of photography is more candid with a documentary style approach, but I do love a good editorial moment!

Angelina was such a breath of fresh air. You all know how stressful hosting events can be let alone having a wedding! She came early to the venue which calmed my nerves, and made genuine connections with everyone to produce some of the best photos. What I appreciated most was her professionalism and authenticity.

Hello, I am so happy you stopped by! I am a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in the Memphis, Tennessee area but love to travel for photography as well. My business began in 2017 and has been going strong ever since. I have always loved photography but now have a passion for it since losing my mom to brain cancer several years ago. I would have taken so many more pictures that captured her personality, love for life, and love for people way more if only I had known how little time she had left. That is what I want to do for you!! Capture snapshots of your life and love, preserving your memories for a lifetime.

Leslie Grace Photography & Films was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. Their communication was phenomenal, outstanding, and always on time. The quality of their work and overall value is unmatched - Leslie has a way of making me feel like a model, and she would even send us photos at 2 AM just to make sure we could get our pictures back quickly. Leslie really went above and beyond to contribute to our special day. When I was feeling nervous before the ceremony, she called me aside and asked me to describe my wife in a few words, which ended up capturing such an emotional moment that I started tearing up. She also made the photo sessions fun and engaging, even getting our rambunctious toddler to smile the whole time. Leslie Grace Photography will undoubtedly be the only person we use for any future photoshoots - she makes us feel so comfortable and special, and has truly transformed what I used to dread into a party when my wife tells me it's time for photos!

EDITORIAL MEETS DOCUMENTARY If you're looking for a photographer who captures the little moments and preserves your day in the way it happened, while bringing in the feel of curated images and an elevated experience, you're in the right place. Images will be created by curating artistic images with posing & prompts, while eliminating the feeling of your day being a production and capturing the real things as they happen. True-to-life and true-to-color is the vibe here to give you photos you'll want to share and hang on your walls until the end of time. If you're looking for magical, intentional photos that just scream you, let's connect.

You can see from Hannah's work on her page that she is an AMAZING photographer. Her work speaks for me. She captured our day perfectly, she didn't miss a shot and captured moments that I otherwise would not have remembered. Her style is unique and really captures the ethereal beauty of a wedding day. What you cannot see from her work is how she manages a wedding day. This woman will be everything you need by your side at your wedding. My veil kept falling off, she pulled the bobby pins from her own hair to keep my veil in place. She knew the timeline of the day and helped us to stay on it. She gracefully kept bridal party stresses off my plate all day. Hannah was 100% present and 100% on top of the day. If you are debating if you want to hire Hannah, just know you are getting not only an incredible photographer but also a person who is willing to be whatever you need to have a stress-free day.

I’m Nikki. A Florida-based wedding photographer documenting the wild, sacred, beautifully imperfect parts of getting married. My approach is documentary, nostalgic, and a little bit undone. I’m there for the moments you didn’t plan for: your dad trying not to cry, your friends losing their minds on the dance floor, the quiet five minutes alone together, the weird little in-between moments you won’t realize mattered until years later.

Nikki was my college senior picture photographer. I wanted to do 3 very different photo shoots, as well as incorporate my college friends and my dog. Nikki was able to execute my vision perfectly!!! She knew the perfect locations and captured the vibe I was going for in each session perfectly. I am very detailed oriented and she made sure to capture all the small personal details I wanted included as well. These are my favorite pictures I’ve ever had taken. She was so encouraging and made me feel extremely comfortable behind the camera. Whether you are wanting something more traditional or something completely unique, Nikki will execute it beautifully!!

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

Ashley Benham Photography is all about bold photos for bold love! I'm Ashley and I'm the owner of ABP! A few things about me: I was born and raised here in Memphis, and no matter how much I complain about the heat and mosquitos, the 901 will always be home. My two cats Lana and Lennon are my world, even when they refuse to listen to me (because let’s be real, CATS.) Music is a HUGE part of my life. I’d be lost without it, and love going to shows and supporting local musicians.

Cannot recommend Ashley Benham Photography enough! Not only is she mad talented and knows what she’s doing, but she is a lovely and fun person to be around. She made my husband and me feel so comfortable during both our engagement session and on the wedding day. Both Ashley and her additional photographer, Tate, felt like my besties on the wedding day- they were so helpful and encouraging and really made us feel good. We are absolutely in love with our engagement session pictures and are obsessed with the sneak peek photos Ashley has gotten to us from the wedding. We cannot wait to see the rest of the photos, but we are positive they will be stunning and just what we wanted. Book Ashley! You will not regret it!!!

Jason specializes in both photography and cinematic highlight films, eliminating the hassle of couples searching for multiple vendors. From the Oregon Coast to the Utah mountains, his focus is simple: telling your story authentically.

Choosing Jason as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made. From our very first conversation, it was obvious how excited he was to be a part of our day and how much he cared about making it everything I ever dreamed of. His communication throughout the entire process was exceptional. He was always quick to respond, happily answered any questions I had, and made me feel completely at ease from start to finish. On our wedding day, Jason brought such a positive energy that helped us relax and truly enjoy every moment. From carrying the train of my dress around the whole venue to making sure we actually took a break to sit down, have some water, and eat a snack, Jason went above and beyond to make sure that we were fully taken care of. Jason felt more like a best friend than a vendor. We shared countless laughs throughout the day and created memories that will last us a lifetime. Our family and friends couldn’t stop saying amazing he was! Not only did Jason capture the best day of our lives so perfectly, he also met up with us at Cannon Beach to do an additional photoshoot in our wedding attire. Although it was cold, wet, and windy, we had an absolute blast. Jason embraced every bit of it and got so many incredible photos! You can tell photography isn’t just a job for Jason, it’s truly his passion. He’s a great guy who takes great photos and I couldn’t recommend him enough. We love Jason so much and miss him already!

Hi, friends! My name is Sara and I am obsessed with the great outdoors and telling your story through my lens. I connect with adventurous, laidback couples. And no, you don't have to be an athlete or avid hiker to take photos in beautiful places. I can show you Arkansas best kept secrets and we will create some golden hour magic together.

Would highly recommend Sara as a wedding or special event photographer. Not only are her photos beautiful and is she very professional with everything from process of booking, regular check-ins, communication style etc- but she’s incredibly kind and very much takes the time to find out what you want. Our engagement photos and the sneak peaks she’s already sent (within a couple days) of our wedding are beautiful. Just as important (to us) though, we also just felt like during the wedding we had a friend there with her. We received many compliments of us from guests, bridal party and family that talked about how sweet she was. You won’t regret it booking with Sara.

I take time to know you! I love learning about your love story, the proposal, etc. I am hopeless romantic, so I will probably shed a tear at every wedding I attend or photograph.

Jessica is AMAZING, we hired her for our wedding and also did the engagement pictures with her. I am brazilian and since she is also I thought maybe my now husband would be a little uncomfortable taking the pictures but no way, not with Jessica, the way she makes everything seems so smooth and simple makes you think you are spending a good afternoon with a friend! And her work is definitely THE BEST! On my wedding day she managed to speak both languages with my family and my guests and took so much amazing pictures that now is hard to choose! Everyone loved her job and she sent the pictures so fast that I was really impressed! From now one my dates for events with pictures will depend on her agenda. I can’t wait for the next sessions of her capturing our love!

We did our engagement photos downtown Chicago and the riverwalk was PACKED. I was worried we’d have strangers photobombing everything. He managed to angle us just right so the crowds look like intentional motion blur. A couple shots are a bit soft because we were moving fast, but we love them anyway. Super friendly and made us feel comfortable right away.
