Breana V Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (12 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves West Union, SC

I've always held such a high priority on making memories that will last lifetime. This is one of the many reason I started a photography business. Just a little bit about me, I'm 24 years. Married to my high school sweetheart, Noah. We moved to Upstate, SC from our home state of sunny south Florida to start a life as newlyweds. If you are a lover of moody, intimate and timeless photography, let's connect. I would love to work together :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Breana was absolutely amazing! We were looking for unique, timeless photos that felt authentic to us, rather than the typical oversaturated and overly posed portraits you often see. She delivered beyond our expectations! Every image feels cinematic and true to our personalities. We are in love with every single photo! We truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our engagement and wedding photos!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience working with D Malave Images. From our first conversation, he took the time to get to know us on a personal level, which made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire day. He was clear about his vision and ideas, and it showed in every shot—he captured all the beautiful moments without anyone even realizing he was there.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have used KAM Collective for my senior photos, engagement session, Bridal Portraits, and Wedding photos & videos. I have had an incredible experience with Kimberly and Avery each time. They are easy to contact and respond quickly. Kimberly has always been open to any ideas I have for photos, she also has given me great ideas. For my Wedding Kimberly was willing to attend meetings with my wedding planners to establish the most efficient way for all the photos I wanted to be taken. She also followed the schedule that was made perfectly on wedding day which made the day stress free for me! Kimberly makes getting your picture back in a reasonable amount of time a huge priority- which is very rare. She also has you multiple sneak peaks ready within a day. Avery filmed my entire ceremony along with a montage video of the whole day. We wanted three songs for the video and he made them blend together so well. Avery had many behind the scenes shots and I never even knew he was there. I highly recommend KAM Collective for any photography/videography needs but especially for Weddings.

Terrell Martin Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves West Union, SC

My name is Terrell Martin, and I am based in upstate SC. I have always enjoyed photography because it is the one way I am able to seemingly pause time, and capture a moment that is sure to only happen once. These moments are what make the memories you will one day cherish and share with your loved ones. When I take photographs, I’m not merely thinking about the “here and now.” I’m imagining generations down the the road being told your story through snapshots. This is why I strive to create timeless images. I prefer a style that is true to color, making every attempt to avoid trendy edits that won’t age well.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't say enough good things about Terrell and his talent! A lot of the style of photos I see are washed out and lacking color, but I love how Terrell's style is so pretty and true to life in color. He is also great at candids, along with posing and making you feel as comfortable as possible in front of the camera. What I appreciated the most is that he really takes the time to get to know you and find out exactly what you want in engagement, bridal and wedding photos. I'm looking forward to having him photograph my wedding!

I want to be that friend with a camera, or that family member who happens to take pictures. I want to take a seat in your life, from the time I photograph your wedding to a few years down the road photographing your family. Every moment, every smile, every joyous occasion, and even the hard times, I want to photograph that story; your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not say enough great things about this incredible woman! She is kind, funny, and scary good at her job! You would have thought she had 5-6 shooters at the event with the amount of photos she was able to get! We used her for our engagement and wedding and everything was perfect. My husband and I are not big picture takers and Brett was able to make us feel comfortable and get Austin out of his shell! I will recommend Brett to anyone in need of a fun, energetic photographer and she will be my first call if I ever need one again! I can't even begin the count the number of complements I received from guests regarding her! She was also the first vendor we booked -- she helped us with useful advice on other vendors and was just heavenly throughout the entire processes! I am obsessed with her 3

Hey, what’s up I’m Casey! Nice to meet you. I’m a father of 2 amazing boys and 1 precious little girl, so if you can’t tell already family means everything to me! Family is also where my love for photography came into existence capturing those precious moments to look back on forever. I developed my sense of photography out of my passion for helping others.

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my wife and I were planning our wedding, we were initially hesitant to book Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. since they were not a local company, and we didn't get to talk directly to the photographer or videographer until the day of the wedding. That being said, what sold us was their website/gallery, their professionalism when getting a quote, and that our venue vouched for them. OLAS' team's communication was responsive, quick, and thorough, putting us at ease. We had planning calls and surveys leading up the day of. Jasmine T did a stellar job setting us up to look our best, and she had her work cut out for her, because she was dealing with two brides, two dresses, and an outfit change! Jasmine was also great about following our instructions from the survey and planning meetings. For example, we had included pictures in front of a wall of donuts at the venue, but we later changed the wall of donuts to cannoli's and forgot to tell OLAS. Turns out the venue threw in the donut wall back in without telling us. Jasmine brought us to the wall, and it made for a great surprise and cute pictures. Jeremy did an amazing job on the videography and editing. Watching the highlight video made us cry because he really captured our best moments and those real smiles in the midst of the stress and hustle and bustle of the wedding day. OLAS gave us complimentary rush photos and video without us asking which was a 2-3 week was turn around. Despite our initial trepidation, we are so happy we booked OLAS. They went above and beyond to make our special day memorable for a lifetime. We are so grateful for their talent and highly recommend Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. to any couple looking for breathtaking photography and videography.

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!

I had a wonderful day and I’m so happy my husband and I hired them to spend our special day with them! They also photographed our engagement and did a wonderful job! I’ve had photo shoots before but, Caitlyn made it comfortable, fun, and easy whereas other photo shoots were more uptight and quick. We got to be in the moment and really soak up everything. On top of that they were very adorable and always so easy to work with and understanding. I could honestly keep going on and on about how wonderful they are personality wise and work wise. Thank you so much you two and I’ll always come to you whenever I need any professional photos taken. Your work is truly a work of art and beautiful!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

We couldn’t have asked for a more talented and professional photographer for our wedding than Jessica! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in great hands. She has an incredible eye for detail and a unique ability to capture not just moments but emotions. Our wedding took place in the mountains, and her photos perfectly captured the stunning scenery in a way that felt so personal. The way she played with natural light and incorporated the landscape into our photos was nothing short of amazing. What truly sets her apart is her ability to bring out the personalities of everyone in front of her lens. My husband and I felt completely at ease, and the photos reflect who we are as a couple so beautifully. From candid shots to posed portraits, every image tells a story that feels authentic to us. Her warm and calming presence on our wedding day was exactly what we needed. She was organized, attentive, and blended seamlessly into the day, capturing everything. We are absolutely in love with the photos and will cherish them forever.

We were recently married in June and had McKenna as our photographer and absolutely LOVED her work!! First off, communication was so easy throughout the whole process. She was so sweet and accommodating to everything. We did our engagement photos with her and she drove all the way from Charlotte to Duke! Leading up to the wedding, we had a few phone calls to plan logistics and she was so organized it make the whole process so easy! On the wedding day I didn’t have to worry about anything photo related. She made sure to capture every moment we wanted without putting any added stress on us.

Lee has been a pleasure to work with for my wedding photography from the very beginning. On our introductory call, he spent a long time trying to understand us as individuals and as a couple, as well as what our vision was. He was open and flexible in ensuring that we felt comfortable working with him, which is so essential when it comes to a wedding photographer. Even though we booked months ahead of time, he was great about maintaining communication and continuing to check in with us throughout the process. When it came time to meet him for our engagement shoot, he easily and quickly made us feel comfortable in front of a camera, something we had felt worried about. He is kind, gentle, and personable, while also being our biggest hype man! It’s very clear that behind the camera, there’s a person that’s passionate about and believes in what he does. This helped us to already feel very comfortable with him on our wedding day, which was an important component for a day that could get chaotic and stressful. He was there to remind us to live in the moment. I couldn’t have asked for more and I absolutely recommend trusting Lee with one of the most important parts of your wedding journey!

I chose not to have a videographer for my wedding, and had it covered only by photography. I sit here now, barely two weeks out from my wedding, already enjoying my entire wedding photo gallery from these amazing photographers that captured every detail as if they were using video recorders instead! Not only did they guarentee quick turn around on my photos (I think their words were "before you're back from your honeymoon") but the quality of work speaks for itself in the photos. They were such an joy to work with- often splitting up to cover ground and their easy banter with each other puts you right at ease when they're pointing those big cameras at you. I will never be able to thank them enough for making our day so special, and I'll enjoy it with their photos for the rest of our days.

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!
