  • Serves Vilas, NC

As a long time wedding and elopement photographer, I am passionate about my couples enjoying and being present on their wedding day. I take only a handful of wedding clients a year so that I stay fresh and excited. I usually shoot about 30% classic portraiture and 70% lifestyle/photo documentary. I like to tell the story through movement and candid photos, while also taking time to create striking and timeless portraits. I edit all my photos in black and white and color, with a film finish.

Helen Joy took our wedding pictures and they turned out amazing! We had an outdoor ceremony and she took some incredible photos, both organic shots and poses with the wedding party and family. She was great to work with, professional, and reasonably priced. We received our prints quickly afterward also. The entire experience with Helen Joy was an absolute pleasure!

I'm Bethany (she/her) - a portrait, elopement, and wedding photographer based in Boone, North Carolina! When I'm not photographing the most amazing couples in the world, you can find me walking at Bass Lake, binging on true crime, and spending quality time with my little family!

The quality of her work was truly stunning - their photos were beautiful, light, and airy, capturing all the special moments of our day perfectly. 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.

Shannon Leopold Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • 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!

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

Manai was so communicative. We started with a nearly 2 hour video call. He was so good about making sure he understood our vision. We had several emails afterwards to get his help with our schedule and other vendors. We had a final 1 hour call just before the wedding to finalize all of the details. 10 out of 10. Manai knows his stuff and it felt good on the day of my wedding realizing we hired the right person. He pretty much knew everything that was happening even before it happened. I'm a pretty anxious person so it was nice having someone to kind of help guide the day along. Thank you Manai! Wishing you so much success. You deserve it!
