Nathan Rivers Chesky Photography & Film 

5.0

Asheville, NC
  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $4,000

Hi! My name is Nathan Rivers Chesky and I am a wedding storyteller. For over a decade I have captured weddings as a photographer, director, and cinematic videographer. I have traveled the world as a photographer and film maker documenting the genuine beauty of this world in portraits, moments, and real interactions. My team and I have found our place telling the unique story of every couple through photography and video with our specific balance of direction and creating the space for real moments for you to be who you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
By the luck of the draw, Nathan was available for our very quickly planned wedding--we snagged the last date he had in June 2024. I was ecstatic because I had always admired his work. My now husband and I had a blast working with him, we never thought taking photos/videos would be one of the highlights of our big day but it really was. The whole family loved working with Nathan, too. He was laid back but nothing short of a true professional--he was somehow everywhere, capturing everything yet never in the way. He went with the flow with funny family eccentricities that popped up and made everyone feel comfortable. Our photos and video got back to us in shockingly record time and we can't choose favorites because we love them all. Multiple people we've shared photos have said, "that looks straight out of Vogue or a magazine." If you're lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with Nathan in any capacity, whether it be a wedding or other shoot, do not pass this amazing artist up.

I’m an Asheville-based photographer and lover of the great outdoors, home cooked meals, hot summer days, and going on adventures. I’m weird (aren’t we all?), but I’m unapologetically myself, and I am obsessed with my job and this life I am so blessed to live. I've worked with some awesome couples, and maybe you're the next!

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!

Paige and Holly were a dream to work with! Music and dancing was one of the highest priorities for our wedding. Paige and Holly understood my vision and music taste immediately, and we knew we could trust them for an incredible party. They took all of my favorite songs and wielded them expertly to keep the dance floor packed all night --- from Stevie Nicks to Chappell Roan. Our wedding night wouldn't have been the same without them, and I wish I could relive that dance floor a million times over. We have gotten countless compliments on our wedding music and how much fun our guests had. I am so jealous that you, the prospective client, have the opportunity to book Paige & Holly for a future event. I truly can't hype them up enough.

Tina is incredible. Not only was her work exceptional, she truly valued and listened to what my desired look for my wedding was. During my trial, we had the best time chatting and discussing what I was going for. As the day went on, I realized I wanted to make some changes to my makeup for the big day. When my wedding day came around, she took notes and made all the changes from the trial perfectly. I've never had airbrushed makeup before, but after working with Tina, I will always come back to her should the need ever come up again. I can't recommend her enough. I felt absolutely flawless.

Asheville, NC
  • Photographer

I've been an artist for as long as I can remember. My mom gave me an old film camera sometime around 5th grade thinking offhand that I might be interested in yet another art form and boy was she ever right. From then on, I've always had a camera in my hand, documenting anything and everything. Photography has been not only my chosen form of expression for over half my lifetime, but my way of learning about the world, of getting to know people, and even of getting to know myself.

Awarded Best of Zola
Adrian is amazing! I cannot recommend her enough, especially if you're a couple that is awkward in front of a camera! We hired her for our wedding in Asheville, and she came to us in Raleigh for our engagement session. She made us feel really comfortable and didn't try to make us do any "unnatural" poses; over the engagement session, she found what worked for us, and brought out more of that! She was also very patient with our dog who did not want to cooperate at all, and still managed to get some great action shots of him! The day of our wedding, it poured! She was such a trooper about quickly moving outside when the sun poked out, and back in when the skies opened up. And when everyone hit the dance floor, she got the best personality pics of our loved ones. She was so patient with us, and everything we needed as two individuals who originally did not feel comfortable in front of the camera!

Hello! Photography is my passion, and I absolutely love what I do! It allows me to be creative, travel, connect with others, and capture so many of life’s special moments! From our first phone call, to planning a timeline and walking through the details, to the wedding day, and delivering your gallery of photos, I am here for every step of the way!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had a superb experience from start to finish with Carly @ Asheville Elevated Photography. We planned a small semi-quick wedding so we had only a few months between engagement and wedding itself and other photographers I contacted either didn't answer or were already booked, or their prices were such where it was out of our range for just a few hours of photos. We were so grateful to find Carly! Upon first meeting at our complementary engagement shoot (which is an awesome perk by the way), she was kind, chill, organized, and helped us feel far less awkward about posing for photos. We got some awesome shots at Craggy Pinnacle, some of which turned out so picturesque that my mom asked if the mountain cloud background was photoshopped! Carly was very proactive in the weeks leading up to the wedding itself. She thought of important logistics that I might have otherwise missed and gathered details so that the day itself would go smoothly and capture all the photos we wanted. Our photos turned out beautifully with a perfect mesh of more 'formal' posed family photos and more candid fun-loving ones, which is exactly what we wanted. We highly recommend Asheville Elevated Photography and will treasure the photos of our special day for years to come!

Hi! We're Julie and Rad. We met in Vietnam in 2016, and have lived in eight countries together since then. During our time abroad we've had plenty of adventures, seen incredible wildlife, eaten a lot of wonderful food, and honed our photography skills. We also got married in 2020! Planning a wedding during a pandemic involved an unusual set of challenges. Although our guest count was a little smaller than we originally anticipated-- the day could not have been more perfect. This was made possible only because we hired and trusted the right people. We try to instill the same trust so you can enjoy your day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Simply Amazing! We had our engagement shoot at the Biltmore estate and it was nothing short of magical. Julie was able to capture exactly what I wanted the pictures to look like. She is a joy to work with and helped us feel relaxed and at ease. I can’t stop looking at my pictures and everyone that lays eyes on them is OBSESSED! They take your pictures and capture who you are but also make it look like a beautiful piece of art. I simply cannot say enough good things!

Daniela Guerrero Photography

Asheville, NC
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,000

I'm a visual artist, when I have my camera I'm in my happy place, I'm dedicated in studying the elements that have come together for each moment to happen, finding ways to play with composition is my passion, and delivering images that will take your breath away, is my goal. I believe it is important for my clients to know me and have a glimpse into my world, my interests and passions. It creates a stronger bond between photographer and client. After all, I'm not just a photographer. I"m a mother, a friend, a wife and another human walking this path alongside you.

My wife and I first learned of Daniela while thumbing through promotional materials for a wedding venue in which various local photographers helped to capture its essence. Each photo was beautiful, but there was something particularly captivating and exquisite about a number of them. They were vibrant, rich, layered, and told a story. We had to know who was behind the lens. It was Daniela. When we first met her, we knew we had our photographer! Daniela's stunning photography, thoughtful organization, candid approach, and undeniable artistic vision is matched by her easy-going, fun, and trustworthy demeanor. Daniela photographed both our engagement session and our wedding, and it felt like being with a friend each time. And, of course, the photographs were extraordinarily STUNNING. She has an indescribable gift for capturing "the moment" and in times when you wouldn't even expect there to be a moment. We could not recommend her enough!!!

Lacey Renae Photography 

5.0

Asheville, NC
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000

Lacey is a world-travelled photographer originally from the midwest. This is a woman and Vet owned business. Her strength is primarily about seeing- the composition, the light, the dynamics between the people she is photographing. Portraits have a lean toward that as well, with a push toward the bonds between people. By working to get clients to interact, the images made reflect the connection between individuals as well as the self.

Lacey was so easy to work with and we love the results. We did not have much time to pull together our tiny wedding (we eloped), and we were lucky to find her. She was creative, professional, and just fun to be around. Highly recommend her and her work.

The Jungle Branch offers an authentic, refreshing approach to wedding photography and is paired best with folks who wish to remain present in the moments throughout one of the most important days in their lives. With an artistically stylized and candid approach, my goal is to not only tell your story in its truest form, but to encourage you to fully live your day, allowing yourself to experience the calamity of joy with your loved ones without photography feeling like a production.

Working with Mike was an absolute dream. My partner and I are not people who feel comfortable in front of a camera. Mike completely changed that - although we had never met in person before, Mike felt like an old friend. He had the utmost patience in dealing with our wild family members before we arrived and captured every moment completely perfectly. Mike was so intentional about every shot and was incredible about getting all of the nature-inspired, detail-oriented shots that I wanted. Every time I look back at my wedding album, I'm brought to joyful tears just seeing how perfectly captured every raw emotion was. At our reception, guests couldn't stop raving about how personable and easy to work with Mike was. We had a very "free-flowing" party and Mike was able to round-up everyone and get all of our needed family and friend shots - an impossible task! My partner and I just don't have enough good things to say about the entire experience, Mike as a person, and the beautiful pictures that we ended up with. I look back on our photos and know that I will forever have memories of the moody, "Pinterest-board-inspired" wedding of my dreams!

Stories are for telling. Wildwood Media was born out of a desire to create content for those who are inspired by love and creativity. We design curated films to chronicle your unique love story. Our films and photos will bring you back to the tears and abounding joy of your wedding day, over and over again for years to come. You won’t forget a thing. We offer wedding photography and videography services throughout the Asheville, NC, Knoxville, TN, and surrounding areas. We are insured and Jen has her commercial unmanned pilot’s license to fly drones.

A word of advice, hire them! Hire them for both photo and video! I feel blessed to have stumbled across Jen and Brian’s company on my search for a videographer and photographer. Jen was wonderful to work with from the get go. She was willing to drive hours from her home for both my wedding and my engagement photos. She is so flexible and ready for whatever Mother Nature throws at her. Our pictures and video are just amazing! They were able to capture the moments in such a way that it’s like you’re reliving the day over again. Throughout the ceremony I had no idea they were even there, they were like ghosts but they captured every important moment. I will cherish these photos and video forever. I hope one day I have a reason to go back up and hire them again for some photos.

"Passionate" doesn't really begin to describe how I feel about being a photographer. It's more like, who I am as a person. Photographs are able to speak a million words in a moment when words may fail. After photographing 200+ couples of all shapes, sizes, & colors -- I can still say it is my favourite thing to do in the universe. People are my JAM! I love people & their wonderful uniqueness. When two people get together in a thing called "love"? Well, I just can't help but want to be a part of it! Capturing those obvious or subtle displays of affection between two people in true, heartfelt love is as necessary as oxygen in my lungs.

As a local wedding planner it is so important to have a professional, experienced, and charismatic photographer on the team! Planners and photographers work together to make sure your day goes smoothly and all those special moments are captured. Regina is a great team mate and a huge asset to any wedding day! She knows exactly what she is doing and her work is unbelievable. I highly recommend her for your wedding day. Your photos should feel like treasures, all unique and beautiful, and Regina always makes that happen. Shayla Khalife All The Things Events
