Campbell-Combs Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves St. Martin, MS

I capture my couples in an artistic documentary style. What this means, is I focus on the natural, candid moments, documenting the raw emotion and intimacy, as it happens. To tell a story so to speak. When you view your gallery you will be able to go through your wedding day reliving it, as it happened, remembering the details, emotions and even some moments you didn't even realize happened. I try to utilize natural light and I hand edit each photo. I ensure that every photo gets the attention it needs. I am professional with a hint of sarcasm, full of energy and very upbeat. If you need a distraction or a pep talk, I've got you.

I am so blessed to have had a photo shoot with Campbell-Combs Photography. She captured our happiness from behind the lens. She made this photoshoot fun and upbeat. We worked as a team to come up with ideas but I am a person that likes to give the photographer creative range. I am so blessed I found our wedding photographer also.

We loved having Lacey as the photographer of a recent wedding at West Heights Baptist Church. She arrived promptly at the time scheduled for pictures. She worked well with the bride, bridal party, and families involved with the wedding. Lacey was fun and interactive, while maintaining her level of professionalism and time awareness. She respected the requirements and rules of the church regarding wedding photos. We would definitely recommend Lacey as a photographer for any event.

We're a Husband and Wife team based in the Biloxi, MS area offering photography as well as videography. Our classic styles blend together seamlessly to create memories you can cherish forever!

I grew up in New Orleans, but moved to Bay St. Louis when I was young. This is when I began to appreciate nature and all its intricate details. It followed shortly after that I would purchase my first camera, a Nikon N60. I immediately fell in love with photography. I just had to capture all the intriguing tiny things I saw, and that was 20 years ago. I also volunteer at The Humane Society of Southern Mississippi photographing their dogs and cats.

Jessica is one of the best photographers on the MS Gulf Coast. She has taken our couple photos and family photos for years. I am glad that we found her 6 years ago. He started off taking our oldest Pre-K photos and has been capturing our memorable moments ever since then. She is very professional, attentative, creative, kid and family friendly. But most of all she listens to your ideas. Her pricing is really affordable and her work is high quality. I highly recommend her as your next professional photographer.

The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

I've been shooting weddings for almost 10 years now and love every single one. The love, the joining of 2 people, and the fun of having everyone together. I strive to have every single important moment captured to remember for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
We knew from the start that our wedding would be a small, intimate affair, and we wanted a photographer who could capture the special moments without being intrusive. Sidney was absolutely perfect! Communication was a breeze. Sidney was always responsive, and they took the time to understand our vision for the day. He arrived early arrived and with an assistant and both blended seamlessly into the background. They captured candid moments of our family and friends, as well as some beautiful posed portraits. We received the sneek peak very quickly and the only "hard part" is picking from all the many photos to move on to the final gallery!

I’m Edgar, an HTX-raised native with Salvadorian roots. I am the owner, creative director, and lead photographer at Anchor Studios Photography. I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding in California and Edgar flew out and helped make our day so memorable! We didn't know him before and didn't end up doing an engagement shoot (so I was a little nervous) but he absolutely nailed it. His photos are stunning (I've gotten a TON of compliments on them), he is extremely communicative, and he had a bunch of photos ready to go by the end of the wedding. Both me and my husband aren't great at posing for photos and he knew exactly how to place us without it feeling faked. Super easy to work with and just a really nice guy. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!

We cannot say enough good things about Heather and her team. I discovered Heather in a bride group and knew that I just had to have her as my photographer. I expected beautiful photos, but we got so much more. Heather and her team made our wedding era so wonderful. She treats you like a best friend she’s known her whole life. Not to mention her team’s passion for travel. Heather and Andrew traveled 6 hours each way for our engagement photo shoot, then again for our wedding. Their attention to detail and passion for real-life photos really makes the perfect wedding album. They captured every important moment. We are so thankful. We could not recommend the team enough!

can’t believe how beautiful our wedding photos turned out, honestly they look better than I ever dreamed. Every time I look through them it’s like I’m right back in the moment, feeling the nerves, the excitement, the laughter. The colors are bright but not fake looking, everything feels so real. Even the silly moments we didn’t think mattered look amazing in the pictures. The video had me in tears from the first second, it’s like reliving the whole day in motion. My husband, who never really gets emotional, actually cried watching it. Our families keep saying how perfect everything looks, and they’re not the type to hand out compliments easy. I loved how comfortable they made us feel while taking the photos, no awkward posing that made us stiff. We were just ourselves and they somehow turned it into magic. It felt effortless and that made such a big difference. I’m so glad we trusted them because now I’ll have these memories forever.

Love Knot Photography

  • Editorial style

  • Serves St. Martin, MS

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

Hi, my name is Maria Davis! I am a documentary style photographer capturing love stories on both film and digital. I am a homegrown and local Winston-Salem, NC girl with a second location in Boston, MA. You can usually find me along the upper east coast, but I happily offer my services within the USA with $0 travel feels. If you are interested in working together, please visit my website to see a little more about me, my work, and how I can help you make your wedding day visions real.

If you have the opportunity to work with Maria we recommend you take that chance while you’ve got it. She is an AMAZING photographer, fun to work with, and is so thoughtful/ helpful during the planning journey. We’ve already had a friend say they’d hit her up if they get married because they loved our experience and photos so much. 10000% could not recommend her enough. When we were looking for a wedding and engagement photographer we wanted someone who was creative in their shots, had crystal clear photo quality, and had a true to life/vibrant photography style - and Maria was the perfect fit! We had a phone consultation where she asked thoughtful questions to get to know us as a couple but also helped asked things related to photography to help us communicate our desires and ensure she was the right fit. Maria wants her couples to have the dreamiest day and I loved how intentional she was with helping us communicate our vision - she’s the pro and knew exactly what to ask to get us thinking! We were immediately obsessed and left in awe at some sample galleries, so we signed right away. When it came time for our engagement photos we had this super fun pre-shoot questionnaire that once again consisted of thoughtful questions (our planner was SO impressed with them), such as if there were any specific shots we wanted or our comfort level with photos. My now husband and I sat down with wine and went through the questions together, so that itself was a fun planning experience. We’re not the most comfortable in front the camera so it was cool to feel seen and have her understand us before we arrived to the shoot. And let me tell you we had the BEST time! We felt comfortable so quickly and the shoot flew by. The photos turned out AMAZING and we got even more excited for the wedding. Before the wedding we had a questionnaire to go over our desires for the wedding (and even had a chance to put secret info if you had any surprises for people or just wanted her to be aware of certain family dynamics you don’t want widely disseminated). On our wedding day Maria even handled a situation for us when we asked for help and she was the most discreet and professional and got us taken care of. We just got our full gallery back and the photos are the dreamiest - incredible sunset photos, creative and thoughtful detail shots, and excellent photos of our guests. The gallery captures our day perfectly and is everything and more than we could have asked for. Maria is timely, talented, professional, a cool person, and is someone we’d hire again in a heartbeat. Plus, she’s always down for an adventure so if you want to travel I’m sure she’ll be happy to meet you there and help make your photography dreams come true. We will cherish our engagement and wedding photos forever. All photos credited to Maria at MTD Photo Co.

Mae Krell Photo was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Mae was incredibly thorough and took the time to get to know us and our vision for the day. She asked thoughtful questions and used a variety of communication methods like email, Zoom calls, and text messages to keep us informed and make the process seamless. On the day of the wedding, Mae's positive and calming presence was exactly what we needed when things didn't go exactly as planned. Her creativity and talent shone through, as she captured so many special moments we didn't even realize were happening. The final photos are absolute perfection - precise, organized, and beyond excellent. I am thrilled that Mae was our photographer and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
