I'm an NYC fashion photographer turned wedding storyteller. After years in the fashion world capturing beautiful imagery for models, fashion influencers, and musicians, my inclusive work found its way into articles from Cosmopolitan, Refinery29, Buzzfeed, and People. Having been recently married myself, I have fallen in love with documenting real moments and real love. Now, I specialize in photographing weddings with an editorial edge and a heart-forward approach. My style is natural, inclusive, and focused on making you feel confident, seen, and celebrated in every image. I'm based in Crewe, Virginia, but always ready to travel for love!

There are people you come across in life where the ease of conversation translates and you find yourself wanting to cross paths with this person again. This is the case with LaraBelle photography! Met her by chance at a bridal show and after seeing her images I recognized such a beautiful aesthetic with her work! Straightforward, clean, crisp and beautiful photography are words I’d use to describe her work. She’s very quick to turn around a gallery and you can tell her passion for photography and documenting special occasions precedes her. I highly recommend hiring LaraBelle for all of your photography and video needs. You can’t go wrong! I look forward to working with her in the future!

We can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from. We received our photos quickly, and they were beautifully edited and of exceptional quality. Be sure to check out OLAS—and definitely ask for Victoria!

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph.

I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

So when it was time to start planning my Jan 2024 wedding, I knew I wanted to reach out to her first. As so many brides know, one thing can lead to another and things change!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!
