Joy Mills Photography

Yorktown, VA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

Luxury wedding photographer for the modern couple with classic style. Based in Virginia, traveling worldwide. I have only ten photographs from my wedding day—ten carefully chosen frames that captured the expected moments. I cherish them. But as the years have passed, it’s not those images I reach for first- it’s the moments that weren’t documented. The unscripted moments- those are the ones that shaped the heart of our story. That perspective is at the core of how I photograph weddings today. I approach each celebration with an eye for both refinement and truth- capturing the depth of what is felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joy was absolutely wonderful to work with! She listened to everything I wanted and was great with giving suggestions when I wasn't sure what I wanted for my photos. If I could hang every picture she took at my wedding in my home, I certainly would! Joy made sure I had PERFECT photos of my wedding day and I love every single one of them. I have worked with Joy on other projects since my wedding and have been very pleased with her work. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for the best of the best when it comes to photographers!!

Hi, I’m Rachael! A Virginia-based wedding photographer with a calm, creative approach that allows you to truly enjoy your day while I document it with care and intention. I’m based in Yorktown and serve couples all across Virginia and beyond. My style is a blend of documentary, candid storytelling and fine-art detail - timeless images that feel like you and reflect the heart of your celebration. From the quiet in-between moments to the big joyful ones, I’m here to preserve it all beautifully so you can relive your wedding day for years to come. Please contact me directly through my website rachaelreidphotography. com

Rachael is a must have on your wedding day! Her work speaks for itself in the beautiful galleries she creates. What sets her apart is her passion for her work and the effort she puts in to knowing the couple. Her work goes far beyond just showing up on wedding day. Prior to our wedding, she sat down with us to learn about our love story, hear what moments on wedding day were most important, discuss photo ideas and just get to know us. Throughout the process Rachael felt more like a friend than just our photographer. The result is that our wedding album came out better than we ever could have imagined. Rachael is calm, organized, and somehow everywhere at once without ever feeling intrusive. She captured so many little moments we didn’t even realize were happening. As we look back on the photos, we feel like we are right back in that moment. If you’re looking for someone who is incredibly talented, easy to work with, and truly passionate about what they do, we cannot recommend Rachael enough. We feel so lucky to have had her capture our wedding day. These photos will be something we cherish for the rest of our lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
Saying Ashley (and her associate photographer, Bri) was amazing just does not do her justice. Ashley did both our engagement photos and wedding photos, and both were stunning. The communication with Ashley throughout the entire process was easy, she always responded quickly. She was so willing to answer our questions and give us tons of wedding planning advice. She made sure to get every single shot we asked for. Her skills are beyond unbelievable. She makes you feel so comfortable and makes sure you are having fun while taking all of your photos. She even helped me with our timeline, which helped the day run smoothly. Her turnaround time is extremely fast, unrivaled in the industry. We received our sneak peeks less than 12 hours after the photography ended. We received our full wedding gallery less than 2 weeks after our wedding date! We were blown away by all of the photos. Her editing is top quality and every single photo looks stellar. We could not recommend Ashley enough for any occasion, not just weddings!

My favorite thing about photography is getting to know my clients, their stories, their families, and their friends and making that special connection. Seeing their love, warmth, happiness, and joy captured in my photos is so exciting. My clients become friends and hold a special place in my heart. I blend traditional photo-journalistic photography with my own creative flare! Yes, traditional photos are great and beautiful; however, clients fall in love with my creative, fun shots. It's my desire for each client to look at their pictures years from now and still remember the exact emotion and excitement they felt.

Julie is a FANTASTIC photographer!! She and her second shooter Melissa were so fun to work with, and my husband and I were blown away by their photos. We couldn’t be happier!

We were so glad we chose Evan to officiate our wedding.

What really stood out was how genuine Evan is—he made us feel like he'd known us for years instead of just an hour. His professionalism combined with his ability to connect with us on a deeper level made the ceremony feel truly special and personal.

  • Beauty professional

  • Serves Yorktown, VA

Darling and Dapper Studio isn’t just a salon; it’s a haven for confidence. Founded by Elizabeth Darling, whose own journey of self-discovery led her to create a space where beauty is cultivated from within, rather than just painted on. Here, amidst the plants and warm, cozy ambiance, a team of experts don’t just style brides for their wedding day; they empower all individuals to radiate confidence that extends far beyond the salon. With each brushstroke and hairstyling flourish, they build a canvas of inner beauty, reminding every guest that their worth shines brightest from within.

Awarded Best of Zola
As the bride, I wanted to capture the fleeting, unforgettable moments of our big day (while looking my absolute best) as I’ve been told it goes by in the blink of an eye! I was fortunate enough to receive a recommendation for an incredibly talented hair and makeup studio from a family member who used Darling and Dapper for her wedding in October of 2024. After reading the different artist descriptions on the Darling and Dapper website, I knew Taylor Shira and Carolina Updegraff were going to be a perfect fit for what I was looking for on the day of the wedding! Taylor and Carolina exceeded my every expectation! What struck me most about Taylor was her ability to help create a calm, inviting atmosphere on the day of the wedding. She is such a sweet, energetic person with such a positive personality to boot. What struck me most about Carolina was her ability to recreate the exact makeup look from any inspiration picture you show her. She is such a sweet, warm person and she and Taylor are the exact kind of people you want to spend time with on what is typically a very overwhelming day! Their attention to detail and artistic eyes brought out the true beauty in myself and all my bridesmaids. I truly have never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day thanks to Taylor and Carolina. Taylor and Carolina are not only a master with any hair or makeup style you throw at them, but they are also true professionals. We chose to get ready in the bridal suite of our hotel and they both arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor, and made us feel truly at ease throughout the whole day! Their level of communication is impeccable as they were always willing to take feedback (without taking it to heart) and truly listen to what you were hoping to achieve with your look, so we knew we were in good hands the day of the wedding. With our wedding being an outdoor wedding, on July 12th, in Virginia, I was slightly nervous that my makeup was going to be ruined before we even made it to cocktail hour, but Carolina worked tirelessly to support my dream of having my desired look (and boy did she succeed)! Taylor worked tirelessly (up until I left the building to walk down the aisle) to support my dream of having cascading curls down my back and cascade (and last) they did! My six bridesmaids all chose different hair and makeup inspirations and were all extremely pleased with their work. Working with Taylor and Carolina has been an absolute pleasure from my bridal hair trial session to the end of the wedding day. Their exceptional talent, professionalism, and dedication to their craft makes them a stand out choice in the world of bridal hair and makeup! I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone seeking extraordinary hair and makeup and an unforgettable wedding day! - Mrs. Canavos

They have been providing epic wedding entertainment services internationally since 2009 and have been based out of Virginia since the fall of 2017.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was referred to DJ Karizma’s page and as soon as we spoke, I knew he was the one. He had such good energy and was super easy to talk to. What really sold me was that he’s Caribbean — my husband is Guyanese and I’m Puerto Rican, so we really wanted someone who understood both of our cultures and could bring the music together in a way that felt like us. And he did exactly that! From start to finish, Karizma brought the vibe and made the night unforgettable. He wasn’t just a DJ — he was also an awesome MC. He kept everything flowing smoothly, hyped the crowd when needed, and made sure everyone was having a great time. His energy was amazing the entire night. He mixed the perfect blend of music — we’re talking Reggaeton, Soca, Dancehall, Salsa, R&B, Hip Hop, and so much more. He read the crowd so well and kept everyone dancing all night long, from our parents to our friends and even the kids. We’ve had so many people tell us how fun the wedding was, and honestly, a huge part of that was thanks to him. If you’re looking for someone who really knows music, understands different cultures, and just gets it, DJ Karizma is your guy. We’re so happy we chose him. I’d book him again in a second!

We offer so many different options to personalize your wedding and make the experience unique for you and your guests. We have lighting, special effects, and even licensed pyrotechnicians on our team that can provide professional fireworks displays (both day and night) to show off your style with impact!

Awarded Best of Zola
Now for the details: Brandon, Kellie, Elmer, and Becky were excellent to work with. They were communicative throughout the entire process and even sent monthly checklists to ensure the wedding planning timeline was ironed out and reminded you of the small details that most folks forget about. It’s the little things like these emails that went above and beyond to make sure our evening went as smoothly as possible. Our DJ, Elmer, was very enthusiastic despite challenges at the beginning of the event – the venue coordinator was very combative with him during set-up – and he didn’t let it affect the energy of the evening. (We didn’t find out until after the wedding date from our other vendors setting up and we had to reach out and ask about it because he didn’t want us to worry at all). He provided a high energy level and hits for dancing the whole evening and stuck to our favorite music vibes. Our photo booth operator, Becky, pulled us aside to take photos in the booth and thank goodness she did because we didn’t get the chance to go in before or after she pulled us aside. She put our guestbook together throughout the evening and it was fun to have something that captured our night to look through the next morning. Signature DJs was reasonably priced considering everything we received - music for ceremony & reception, mics, uplighting for dance floor, photo booth with guest book, monogram, and bubble exit complete with 2 bubble machines and bubbles for individual guests. They were flexible with our requests (customized monogram, unconventional timeline, and last-minute song additions) and had already worked at our venue so they were already familiar with the space which was super helpful because the venue coordinator was awful to work with. They put us at ease and gave us confidence that our day would be wonderful when we were the most stressed. Thank you so much, Brandon, Kellie, and team for setting the tone and giving us a memorable night!

LOOK NO FURTHER, CHRISTINE IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! I feel so lucky to have found Christine for my wedding makeup because she was everything I was looking for and more! I did a makeup trial with someone else that went terribly and was scrambling to find a new makeup artist less than two months before my wedding. I am truly so grateful I found Christine. Her talent speaks for itself, just check out her Instagram page (https://www.instagram.com/christinecouturecormier/). I had my first video consultation with Christine the day after I found her, and we discussed what went wrong with the first person and what I was hoping to achieve for my wedding day look. Not only was it clear that she knew what I was looking for, but she also had amazing ideas about the entire makeup experience on my wedding day that I hadn’t even thought of. Your makeup artist is SO important because you’ll have these photos forever and they’re the first vendor you interact with so they help set the mood for the day. Christine was an incredible presence the whole time she was there. She and the second makeup artist Lindsey made me and my entire bridal party look and feel amazing! Christine made incredible content with me and my bridal party and she was also there for my first look. She was the perfect calming presence I needed for the most exciting but stressful moment of the day. She helped fluff my dress and took photos and videos I was able to have immediately after the first look. You want to feel confident that your makeup artist is going to make you look and feel amazing, and I promise you can trust Christine with that! My guests were raving about my makeup! I felt done up and more special than my everyday makeup, but I still felt and looked like myself. Also the makeup lasted all night long! She is worth every single penny!! If you pick Christine to be your makeup artist you will not regret it!

If you’re looking for your sign to hire her, DO IT! She’s been booked out pretty far in advance both times which should tell you something!

Stacy and her daughter were amazing! The food was delicious and the cake was infamous! They helped set up the tables with my centerpieces while we were getting ready, had an amazing presentation and kept everything well stocked. The chocolate fountain was a huge hit with the kiddos! We will definitely use them again in the future!

E & E Design Co. was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. Maegan and her team were prompt, helpful and dependable throughout the entire planning process. They demonstrated a precise, meticulous and organized approach to our wedding, which allowed us to fully enjoy our special day without any unnecessary stress. Maegan kindly offered to hold on to our decor overnight since the venue didn't allow storage, and she even offered to let us use some of her own decor. I can't recommend E & E Design Co. enough - Maegan truly made our wedding day perfect, and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. She was so easy to communicate with and always responded quickly to any questions or comments we had. Thank you so much Maegan and team!

Hi there, I'm Jessica! One of my favorite things about being a wedding florist is getting to create living art. This kind of art is never stagnant, never monotonous. The medium represents growth, connection and love- a perfect symbol to surround my beautiful couples on their wedding day.

Working with Jessica was a treat. She was an incredible listener and translated our inspiration into reality spectacularly. Her arrangements were dynamic, structural, cohesive and so intentionally crafted. We shared some specific elements/colors we wanted and she was able to run with our ideas and turn them into a full floral design vision board. Jessica had candles and votives, and sourced these gorgeous ribbons for the bouquets. She thoughtfully incorporated all our requests and was happy to adjust throughout the planning process. I can’t recommend her more highly!

It has been a few weeks since our wedding, and we are still in awe of how perfect our day was. Looking back, everything went so smoothly that it almost feels like a dream. What could have easily been one of the most stressful days of our lives became one of the most enjoyable and memorable experiences thanks to The GALA crew. From the very first moment we walked through the doors for our tour, we felt welcomed, valued, and confident that we had found the perfect venue. Throughout the entire planning process, the staff was professional, responsive, organized, and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. Every question was answered, every concern was addressed, and every detail was handled with care. On our wedding day, the team exceeded every expectation we had. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything stayed on schedule and ran flawlessly, allowing us, our families, and our wedding party to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Knowing that everything was under control gave us such peace of mind, and that is truly priceless on a day as important as your wedding. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, and our guests could not stop complimenting both the space and the staff. The atmosphere, attention to detail, and level of service created an experience that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. From the ceremony to the reception and even the process of picking up our belongings the following day, everything was seamless and stress-free. We could not have asked for a better venue or a more dedicated team to help us celebrate one of the biggest days of our lives. Thank you for turning our dream wedding into a reality and for creating memories that we will treasure forever. We wish The GALA continued success, growth, and many years of helping future brides and grooms experience the same joy and peace of mind that you gave us. Thank you again for everything—you will always hold a special place in our hearts. - The Hepburns

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t speak highly enough about Alaina. From booking to the wedding day, she was phenomenal. She started with a questionnaire to discuss my vision, skincare, and what makeup I currently the use. The trial was so much FUN and she took everything I said into consideration. Come the wedding day, she made all of my bridesmaids feel so comfortable. I had girls who like heavy makeup, girls who like minimal, and everything in between. She accommodated everyone’s needs and my friends have never looked more beautiful! As for my makeup, my skin has never looked so flawless! All night everyone commented on my makeup, saying it was pristine. It lasted all through the night. Photos, dinner, and TONS of dancing, everything stayed perfectly. She even gave us little touch up kits and straws so we wouldn’t mess up our lips. Thank you, Alaina, for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!
