Ethereal Moments Art 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Vilas, NC

My name is Wioletta, but you can call me Viola. I am a professional photographer based in the mountains of North Carolina where I reside with my three children, partner, a Great Pyrenees dog and a Siamese cat. I have a degree in Visual Art, but I have been fascinated by photography since I was 14 years old. I moved to the United States from Poland when I was just 16. I created my first photography business in 2010 where I shot moody and aesthetic self-portraits that I later sold as prints. I also designed logos and CD covers for bands. I created my wedding business, Ethereal Moments Art, in 2018 and ever since it has continued to grow.

Ethereal Moments Art was amazing to work with from start to finish and worth every penny. The theme of our May wedding was romantic, storybook/fairytale with lots of mauves, olive and sage colors and we wanted a photographer with an ethereal, intimate, candid style to match. We found Ethereal Moments Art by searching on the Knot. The first "difference-maker" is that the Ethereal Moments Art's website is upfront and transparent about pricing, day-of-timeline and process, which many photographers don't discuss in such detail right away. We were able to clearly envision working together. Plus, we could immediately make a decision to engage based on one of our highest priorities in vendor selection--budget. After an initial call and agreement, we had an engagement shoot. Wioletta suggested a time and place near us that captured our desire for a candid shoot in nature. We had not had a formal photoshoot done before, and Wioletta was professional, patient when we ran into traffic, gave helpful direction, made us feel comfortable, and took charge to capture us while the sun was going down and we were super sweaty! You can't tell at all in the final photos, either - it was a great way to get to know Wioletta and establish trust before the big day. Wioletta helped ease our minds and prepare us for the wedding day by asking for a list of photos that we wanted to have such as locations during first look, family portraits, etc. She and her shooting partner were on time and started working immediately. Even while the bride needed extra time due to a nervous stomach Wioletta was patient and adapted quickly, used that time to collect more photos of family and the venue. Wioletta did a fantastic job capturing all of the key moments, the beauty of the venue, family group portraits, and the candid moments shared amongst everyone having a great time. She provided a preview shortly after the wedding day, and then the whole album within her promised timeframe. Our album consists of thousands of photos(!) and we are very happy with them. Ethereal Moments Art's online platform made it easy to order prints, an heirloom photo album with USB containing all files, and a large framed version of our favorite image - the one of us sitting in the red chairs. It's hanging in our living room today. I cannot recommend Wioletta enough for your wedding and/or engagement. Overall, a pleasure to work with, responds promptly, and is a master of her craft. If you are on the fence, don't hesitate to book. Thanks again, Ethereal Moments Art! Our family will treasure your art for our entire lives.

I am a native of WNC and love living in this beautiful area. I live in a tiny home in Lake Lure NC with my husband, dog and cat. I enjoy hiking, paddle boarding on the lake and traveling. I am a self-help junkie and am always in pursuit of my best me. I love people and love making genuine connections and new friendships.

Awarded Best of Zola
Are all brides that anxious on their wedding day? I certainly was! In addition to “typical wedding jitters” my dress hadn’t come back perfect from the seamstress… I was a wreck. I worried about how the photos would come out even with the best photographer. Andrea was amazing. Most of the time I didn’t know she was there. She got the best and most candid shots without any distraction (she must be part ninja). Andrea also got all of the wedding shots I’d requested through communication before the wedding and also had fun ideas that I wouldn’t have thought of. I received my photos within weeks of the wedding and I was amazed at how beautiful they turned out! The photos tell a story of a beautiful day and don’t even show a hint of the worries I had behind the scenes. I would recommend Andrea Coon photography without any reservation!

Born and raised in Southern California, I was always surrounded by vibrant culture. After moving to North Carolina, I brought my passion for photography with me, turning it into a career that has now spanned over seven years. Through the years, I’ve had the privilege of capturing countless moments, but I truly fell in love with photographing weddings and portraits. Weddings allow me to document love stories in their purest form, portraits give me the chance to highlight individuality and emotion. Photography isn’t just a job for me, it’s my way of preserving memories and telling stories that last a lifetime.

Molly did an amazing job at capturing our special day and did so in our style as well! Her pictures turned out absolutely stunning and we could not be happier with her and her work! She shows up on time and is very organized in how she works and the pictures she takes!

Despite the rain, sun, and even a rainbow, Bethany and her team handled everything beautifully, and all the photos looked incredible. We worked with Bethany for our engagement photos and welcome party. Bethany herself was level-headed and easy to get along with, making our wedding day that much more special.

  • Serves Vilas, NC

Hi I'm Shannon, I was raised in the city of Los Angeles, but now reside in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I describe my photography approach as a "directed documentary". I love to blend more traditional money shots (the big kiss, walking down the aisle, first dances) with a photojournalistic angle that feels like natural snapshots rather than posed photos. My firm belief is that great photos can only reflect what naturally unfolds on your big day. I focus on candids, guest reactions, and photographing anything that helps tell a complete, and unique story. My goal is that anyone who looks at your gallery feels what it was like to be there.

Shannon has impeccable talent! Her photos always tell the most beautiful stories. You can't help but do a little "happy dance" whenever she sends a gallery your way!

Victoria exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment she arrived, she brought an incredible energy that immediately put us at ease. She has an amazing eye for detail and was constantly adjusting my dress, veil, and our positioning to make sure every image would be as beautiful as possible. What impressed me most was how invested she was in capturing every moment perfectly. She was thoughtful, encouraging, and somehow managed to be everywhere without ever feeling intrusive. Beyond being incredibly talented, she's simply a joy to spend the day with—bubbly, kind, professional, and genuinely excited for her couples. We haven't even received our full gallery yet, and I already know we'll treasure these photos forever. I would recommend Victoria without hesitation and will absolutely be calling her again for future milestones.

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.

I’ve known Ali outside of her photography career and when I was starting to plan out things for my wedding I didn’t hesitate to reach to her for her to be my photographer/wedding helper. Her personality and work ethic spoke for themselves. I hadn’t seen her photography work before booking with her, and that’s how much trust I had in her and her expertise as a wedding photographer. Our engagement shoot with her was flawless and her patience was greatly appreciated. We had no idea what to expect but her many years of photography experience definitely helped our nervous jitters. She cued us on specific positions and things to talk about so that she could capture the perfect moments. Oh and she was great with the fur babies, they were doing their best but she helped us out with their quirks. 10/10 recommend Ali for your photography needs…I’m very excited for our wedding day!
