Morgan Foth Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,900
  • Serves Stanley, NC

I’m Morgan — the face behind Morgan Foth Photography! My husband, Justin, and I are a photo + video duo based in York, SC, capturing unique love stories across the Carolinas. We’re down-to-earth, a little goofy, and love helping couples who “aren’t photo people” feel confident and comfortable in front of the lens. If being in front of a camera feels awkward, don’t worry — that’s my specialty. I’ll crack jokes, play third wheel, and make you forget the camera’s even there. When you book both photo and video, you get our full dream team to capture your day from every angle — all the laughs, tears, and dance floor chaos included.

Morgan was one of the best choices we made during the entire wedding planning process. She was clear, communicative and super professional, and that doesn't even touch her artistic skill!!! I had so much faith in her from the moment we got our engagement photos back and then the wedding was just as great. 10/10 best photographer and the only one I recommend to friends who are getting married.

Hi, my name is Faith. I have been passionate about photography since 2017, when I first picked up a camera to capture my dogs growing up. What started as a simple love for photographing my pups has evolved into a deep passion for capturing moments that tell a story. Traveling is another love of mine, and Africa holds a particularly special place in my heart. I have been fortunate enough to visit four times, with hopes to have many more trips. When I am not behind the camera, I'm either coaching gymnastics, spending time with my two dogs and horse, or exploring the world around me.

Awarded Best of Zola
Faith is a phenomenal photographer! I have had the pleasure of working with her on several occasions, all at different venues. She is very well rounded and works extremely well with adults and children. Faith has a soft and kind demeanor, all while producing strong and fierce photos. Aside from her photography, she is wonderful at planning and scheduling. Faith is well organized, giving the customer/family a stress free photoshoot. I highly recommend Faith M. Photography, and will continue to book her time and time again!

Kurstin Clark Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Stanley, NC

Hi! I am Kurstin and it is so nice to meet you! I am a wife and mom of two. When I am not photographing weddings, I am probably hanging with my family or at the pool. I love capturing weddings because each one is so different. I love when I am editing the wedding photos, it is like I am reliving the moment as well.

Seems like they’re used to people having an idea of what they want for their photos from things they’ve seen on Pinterest, Instagram, etc. My wife and I don’t really use social media so we gave them total creative freedom and trusted they’ve seen enough weddings to know what looks good. There was a bit of an adjustment period but it seemed like they were having as much fun as we were once the creative expression started pouring out. And we LOVE the end result. We’re so happy with how our wedding day was captured.

Hi, I'm Ashley, a Charlotte based wedding photographer. I’m all about candid moments, raw moments and real love. Capturing unique love stories and creating a timeless gallery for my people to look back on is what I strive to do. Art is subjective, which is why I love directing my couples in a way that will reflect their love in its realest form while still giving them room to be themselves.

We absolutely loved working with Ashley! She photographed both our engagement session and our wedding, and from start to finish she was so kind, gracious, and easy to work with. Her style is absolutely stunning — every image feels timeless and full of life. We had a non-traditional wedding and I was a bit worried about how the timeline and flow would be captured, but Ashley absolutely crushed it. She made us feel comfortable, kept everything organized, and delivered beautiful photos that perfectly reflect our day. If you’re looking for a photographer who is both talented and wonderful to work with, I can’t recommend Ashley enough!

Smile As You Mae Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Stanley, NC

Hello I'm Michaella I am the face behind Smile As You Mae Photography. I specialize in weddings, newborn, and family photography. I have 7+ years of experience in the industry. I mainly serve the SC+ NC region. I was born and raised in Lancaster, SC. I earned my BSN degree from the University of South Carolina Upstate. Photography was a hobby for me during nursing school. Never did I think it would take me the places I have gone. Fast forward seven years later and I have photographed over 100 weddings, 1000+ sessions, and own a photography studio right inside my hometown.

Smile as You Mae was phenomenal to work with! From my first inquiry to the wedding day, Michaella and Megan were a joy and instantly made me feel comfortable. I had a lot of questions and they took the time to talk through everything with me ahead of time. We stuck to the schedule we created together and were able to get everything my husband and I wanted from the shot list, and took pictures that would fit everyones tastes (details, close-up shots, formal, fun long exposure during the reception, everything you could ask for)! They were professional and got amazing photos, but many guests stated that they didn’t even know they were there throughout the reception, which is how well they were able to blend in with the group while still catching all of our moments. I can not recommend Smile as You Mae enough! I have consistently had people state that these photos look like they belong in a magazine, so if thats the quality you want (which you know you do), don’t hesitate to book them!

My responsibilities as your photographer stretch far beyond capturing beautiful images on your wedding day. I strive to make your wedding experience as effortless and enjoyable as possible from the moment you book to the final delivery of your custom leather album.

Wow wow wow. Kevyn is so sweet and such a nice person in general. As a photographer, she is so talented. The day of my wedding is so chaotic, I was worried my lipstick wasn’t perfect or my hair was crazy and my photos would reflect it. We’ll, that was just not the case, Kevyn and her team captured the most perfect photos of my entire family, of me, of the vibe of the dancing, she caught it all and we all look so fantastic. I just cannot thank her enough. Her demeanor throughout the day was all you want in a photographer, she ran the family photos perfectly, was so fun and positive with all the photo requests and just overall amazing.

Hi, I'm Carissa Rogers. I am a professional wedding and portrait photographer, transplanted to the beautiful Carolinas. I'm here to capture ALLLL the magic! I'm an unapologetic people person! I shoot with 2 Nikon Mirrorless cameras and my camera never met a stranger! I'm a mother of 3 adventurous adult kids, married to my best friend for nearly 30 years and I've lived in 3 of the 4 corners of the United States! I drink too much Diet Mountain Dew, I'm a sucker for photos of HUGE family groups at weddings and capturing the perfect 'veil shot' is my dream wedding day moment.

I cannot recommend her enough. She went above and beyond, and our wedding photos are AMAZING! When booking a photographer, I think the most important thing is that you like their style of photography and editing, so I looked at a lot of galleries for a lot of different photographers, and finally found Carissa- her photos are just beautiful! Then, if you find a style you like, the next step is making sure the photographer is someone you want to work with, and that’s where I come in with this stellar review- you want to work with Carissa!! She provided so much expertise and helpful advice and made sure we got every shot we wanted. She has so many fun ideas and wanted to incorporate our personalities and hobbies, so we did our engagement shoot on paddleboards on a beautiful lake! She is great with communication and walked me through a detailed timeline leading up to our day, and she was very flexible and open to suggestions and ideas. Very reasonably priced, and her package includes an engagement shoot, bridal shoot, and the wedding day! She was very fast with editing and gave us a ton of photos for a “sneak peak” before the entire album was ready. We love Carissa and will 1000% book her again for future pregnancy/new born/family shoots.

I'm a wedding photographer based out of Charlotte, NC (but always happy to travel)! I have two small kids, and as cliche as it sounds- when I became a parent, I truly realized how fleeting time is. How fast moments pass and how quickly the beginning of your marriage can fly by.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!
