Awarded Best of Zola
Not only does he take beautiful photos (we have SO many favorites!), every step of the process was fun and absolutely perfect. He is very professional, accommodating, and incredibly detail-oriented, thoughtful and organized--perfect traits for a wedding photographer! Before coming to the wedding he went out of his way and asked if I was hungry or needed something from the store which was very considered. We truly couldn't have imagined a better photographer for our wedding day! We cannot thank and praise him enough, and we feel so lucky to have found him for our wedding. I would have a very hard time letting a friend of mine choose a different photographer.

Grace Dreim Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Altavista, VA

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

I can't gush over Grace enough. After postponing our wedding twice due to Covid, we abandoned our original plans of having a huge wedding at home in Kentucky and decided to have a small ceremony at the beach in Florida. After finding Grace through hashtags on Instagram, we DMed a bit and setup a call. After talking on the phone, I was sold! Grace was my go to girl for all things Florida. She had the BEST recommendations for other vendors and was ALWAYS just a text away if I had any questions or simply needed someone to share wedding plans with. Even though we didn't actually meet in person until the day of the ceremony, it felt as if we had been lifelong friends. She PERFECTLY captured our ceremony and I can't wait to plan another shoot with her when we visit again!!

Based in Charlottesville, Virginia and keen to travel. I am more than honored that this gets to be my job. That I get to photograph you and all the things you love. I love it because I love my people and I love this earth and I love connection and growing things and all I ever want to do is preserve it.

Cecilia was our wedding photographer’s second shooter and we are so happy to have met her! My husband Earl was quite apprehensive about taking photos (he has about 2 smiles in him and then he’s over it!) but Cecilia hung out with the groom’s party before the ceremony and made all of the guy’s very comfortable and took some great candid photos! During pre-ceremony photos, in addition to taking photos, Cecilia was so kind and helped me with my train/veil when we were walking around the venue finding picture perfect spots! Thank you for making our wedding day so enjoyable, Cecilia!

Hi, I’m Yelitza (Je-lit-sa ... don't worry! I got you). I’m a photographer, wife, nurse, fur-mom of three, new avid hiker, and a pretty darn good baker; and I’m here (dramatic pause) to tell your story. I found photography my freshman year of high school (I needed some credits in a pinch and this was it), three days in class and I was in love. Fast forward a few year (hey! hey! not too many years... Watch it! lol) and I'm still just as in love as that third day.

I've worked with this photographer a few times and each time it has been like a fairy-tale shoot. An ordinary couple, set in a scene to make heads turn as they walk by. It's truly a magical experience. And then getting the pictures back is a whole set of feelings. My shoots have been with my boyfriend and with each picture I recieved back, you could truly see the love and energy captured in time. Forever cherished memories.

I'm a published wedding and portrait photographer located in a small town outside of Charlottesville. In addition to capturing beautiful images, I love spending time with my family, am freakishly good at word games (Hey Wheelmobile!), love a Big Gulp, know every line to Hocus Pocus and can never pass up a trip to HomeGoods or TJ Maxx.

Hart of Grace Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the beginning, they were punctual, efficient, and truly caring - making us feel so special throughout the entire process. The quality of their work is simply amazing, with a well-rounded style that captured all the beautiful, unique moments of our special day. It was so convenient having them there to ensure we didn't miss a single detail. In fact, we've gone back time and time again for other photo sessions because the quality is simply unmatched!

Wild Elegance

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

Missy and Nicole were amazing! Working with them felt so natural and for the first time I felt so beautiful in front of a camera! My makeup was a little messed up from happy crying at our ceremony and they assured me it would not be a problem. Sure enough we got the photos back and they were BEAUTIFUL. They looked so natural and I did not see any of the makeup flaws I had that day. I think it is important to also mention that having two photographers is a game changer! They caught some pretty incredible moments from all different angles during our reception and worked so well together to create some unique/beautiful photos. These ladies are incredible and we cannot thank them enough for catching the best moments from our day on camera! We will definitely be recommending them to everyone we know. Thank you both so much again!

My style is distinct, a result of both my unrelenting commitment to my craft and complete trust from clients who commission me. You’re not going to read about any awards, badges, or “top 10 lists” because what matters is you’re in love with the work that you see and are ready to trust me entirely to do what I do. This trust drives me to find the perfect balance between creative experimentation and honest documentation.

All I knew was that I was marrying my fiancé and that Sam was going to be our photographer. I didn’t care about anything else except that he was our photographer. The engagement session was so much fun! The day of the wedding was unbelievable. He’s so calm and professional. He answered all of my questions throughout the process quickly without getting frustrated. Lastly, his work is is just AMAZING! Highly recommend if you love bright colorful unique photos.

Jared is a top-notch photographer with a keen eye for capturing joy. I came across Jared's photos and was immediately enamored by how bright and cheerful his style was, and after two engagement sessions and a wedding gallery, I can 100% attest to the high quality return on investment customers will receive from him. Our engagement and wedding photos really captured the essence of the spaces we were in, as well as the happiness and excitement for being engaged and getting married. Jared is easy-going and keeps his word on time scales. I recommend Jared to any couple considering beautiful, captivating photos they want to keep for their lifetime.

I am a Charlottesville, Harrisonburg, and Richmond Wedding and portrait photographer. I love bringing joy by serving others. I found that through this gift of photography, it’s a way to express the love I have for people and it’s truly an honor to capture those moments that are once in a lifetime. To me, photography is more than taking photos, it's being a supportive friend throughout your day. It’s a privilege to have your trust and it's not something I take lightly. When delivering your gallery, there's no words to describe how I feel knowing this is a piece of history for you and your loved ones

I had the great pleasure of working with Nancy when one of my couples hired her (I own a venue and provide planning/coordination services). She was extremely professional, while still be fun. She put the couple at ease which produced stellar photos. They had fun and laughed which made all the photos to look natural rather than staged. I work with photographers all over the state and beyond and I can truly say Nancy is a joy to work with and her images are stunning! You won’t be disappointed by hiring her to photograph your wedding or any important life events.

Growing up, my mom would take pictures of us on her Kodak. On Saturdays, we would go to the Wal-Mart, have them developed and organize the images into our albums. Throughout the years, we would look through those albums together and those moments are very core memories for my family and I. This is what I want to share with others. Each emotional interaction on a wedding day is an intricate fiber weaved together to create a wonderful story. And I want to share that gift with others - to relive and feel that warmth all over again.

I recommend Nicole Thomas to be your wedding photographer with utmost enthusiasm. I have heard from a friend that Nicole has many years of experience and this wedding photography experience and is the best of the best, both in terms of the quality of her pictures and her personality. Her work really stood out from other photographers, and “told a story.” Both the amazing quality of her work and her willingness to work with me and my husband on the day of our wedding back in February 2022, made her an easy choice for us to be our wedding photographer. Nicole’s portfolio is unique from the others, and you can witness her dedication and respect for work. I am very grateful for her to capture those memories forever so me and my husband can look back on that day and cherish these moments.

It is so nice to have you here! I am a Charlottesville Washington DC and Virginia Wedding Photographer who creates artful film-inspired imagery with a combination of timeless editorial and hybrid candid photography that recreates tangible memories of what matters most: you and your authentic love story. With a passion for wanderlust and most importantly my family, I know that life's most cherished moments are fleeting. It's an honor to create emotional love-story centered heirlooms that can be passed down for generations to come.

Working with Bethany from the very beginning was an absolutely incredible experience. Wedding planning can be stressful, but she took out 100% of the stress when it came to photography. Bethany is so energetic, organized, and kind. Words cannot describe how impressed I was by her attention to detail, her decisive and quick thinking as she arranged setups for poses and came up with ideas for shots in a matter of seconds. My entire bridal party was even amazed by her eye for detail and skillful work as she captured portraits and moments from the day. I felt like I was able to sit back and relax, knowing she had everything under control. She was by far my favorite professional I worked with while planning my wedding.

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind! You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos 40 years from now and FEEL the emotions you felt that day. That's my promise to you!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren for our wedding, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! From the moment we first met her, it was clear that she wasn’t just passionate about photography—she genuinely cared about capturing the essence of our day in the most beautiful, authentic way possible. Lauren has an extraordinary eye for detail. She doesn’t just take pictures; she captures moments—the spontaneous smiles, the glances exchanged, the raw emotions. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—something neither of us was used to. She took the time to understand our style and personalities, and tailored her approach to fit that perfectly. On the day of the wedding, her calm and positive energy was a grounding presence amid all the excitement. Lauren made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and beyond. She’s a true artist, and her work will be cherished by us for years to come.

Hi I'm Maddy! I’m a Virginia native whose love of her camera took her on an adventure into entrepreneurship. I accidentally stumbled into wedding photography thanks to some family friends, and ended up leaving my career as a consultant to pursue my passion. I’m not afraid to admit that I’m a perfectionist and a little bit Type A, but take pride in how that makes me into a great wedding photographer. I thrive in fast-paced environments and love the energy of a wedding day that keeps me on my toes. My attention to detail allows me to go above and beyond when it comes to helping you prepare and capturing your wedding day.

Maddy was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding photography needs. From day one, Maddy was incredibly responsive, organized, and professional. She provided invaluable guidance on timelines and vendor recommendations that perfectly aligned with what we were looking for. During our engagement session, Maddy immediately made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and even stayed longer than planned to capture the best light. On our wedding day, Maddy expertly navigated timeline modifications so we still got all the photos we wanted. We had a lengthy list of family and detail shots that were important to us, and Maddy made sure each item was captured beautifully. We couldn't be more thrilled with our engagement and wedding photos. The beauty of Maddy's art speaks for itself - she has a real knack for capturing light, color, and raw emotion. This, plus her professionalism, preparedness, and responsiveness set Maddy apart as an incredible photographer to work with throughout the entire wedding planning journey. I could not recommend her more highly!

  • Serves Altavista, VA

Since 2010, Aaron Jay Photography has worked with dozens of families, couples and events. Aaron Jay Photography has always been a people-pleaser. We love photography because we get to see people smile, laugh and be joyful. There is no greater feeling of accomplishment than the look on a mother’s face as she sees the pictures he has taken of her children, or the look on a father’s face when he sees the pictures of his daughter on her wedding day. Aaron Jay Photography gets great satisfaction in knowing those moments we captured through a lens will be cherished forever.

We got married in the middle of a pandemic, via Zoom. Though none of our family or friends could be here, Aaron was able to come over and photograph us from a safe distance in our backyard. The pictures are absolutely amazing- better than anything I could have expected, even for a “normal” wedding. We love Aaron.

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

My name is Myles Katherine. I'm a photographer to my core and I am so lucky to have the opportunity to do what I love! Through my job, I have met so many incredible couples, artists, models, families and friends. After living in Portland, Oregon from 2012-2019, I relocated to Richmond, Virginia. However, I'm open to traveling anywhere and everywhere! I cannot make it through the day without coffee, my cat and (obviously) my cameras. I'm looking forward to being a part of your unique love story and capturing it in a beautiful, unconventional way. -Myles Katherine

Myles was our photographer for our wedding at the VA Living Museum and she exceeded our expectations (which were already high after looking through her website)! She really captured the joy of the day in such an artful and unique way. The film pictures were a particular highlight, so beautiful and elevated beyond your typical wedding photos! Myles was able to incorporate the natural landscape of the museum grounds into the photos as well. I usually feel pretty awkward getting my picture taken but Myles and her husband Chris made us and our family feel so comfortable there was no awkwardness at all! It was a privilege to work with Myles!
