We cannot recommend Ally Haley Photography highly enough - She so beautifully captured our wedding! We really struggled to find a photographer who fit within our budget while also fitting our style, so when Ally showed up on my feed, I reached out immediately. She was extremely responsive, and provided helpful tips even beyond our photography needs (such as hair & makeup referrals, tips for bakery, etc.). Our package included an engagement shoot which was a great opportunity to get comfortable with the photographer and posing for photos. It really helped my husband and I feel our best on wedding day, and was so special to be able to share photos ahead of our wedding as we counted down the days! Ally is such a talented photographer that even the unedited photos she showed during our shoot turned out beautifully. She also did an excellent job of getting a wide variety of angles and poses so we had all the options we could possibly need. When it came time for the wedding day, Ally worked around our schedule and really helped to get best "bang for our buck" as far as photos were concerned, helping us coordinate a large number of shots into a limited amount of time. Best part was we were promised a sneak peek within 2 days of our event, and Ally delivered above and beyond - we received about 90 beautifully edited photos 2 days later so we could share highlights of our day with friends and family!! From start to finish, we loved working with Ally! If her style fits yours, we wholeheartedly recommend you book her for your wedding!! She makes you comfortable and helps you feel your most true, authentic and beautiful self on your special day!!

Wedding photographer of the swoon-worthy, sentimental moments of your life story. I help sophisticated brides and grooms celebrate, preserve, and relive a monumental chapter of their lives by creating timeless visual stories of real moments and collected details from their luxurious wedding day. Though I am based in Athens, Georgia I have enjoyed serving those who are celebrating their love in the southern states from Nashville to Savannah. Traveling and exploring new places has always been a great adventure while implementing a career as a professional wedding photographer over the past 14 years!

Awarded Best of Zola
Once my fiancé and I got engaged, there was no question to who our wedding photographer would be. Tara Wilburn Photography is AMAZING! Being a wedding photographer myself, I knew that I wanted a crisp, timeless style and Tara's portfolio is just that! We had a destination wedding in the mountains and Tara was so helpful in planning out the details of the timeline so that our day went smoothly! Our wedding gallery is filled with gorgeous images of everything we could have wanted and more! She captured our day flawlessly. It is SO important to hire a professional photographer for your wedding day. Weddings go by way too fast and the only way to remember each detail of your day is by flipping through your wedding gallery. At the end of the day, all you have left are the pictures. Tara captured something that we will treasure forever! We had a wonderful experience with her. Tara is the photographer's photographer! Highly recommend!

Hi I'm Hannah and I'm from tiny fishing village in Cornwall, England but moved here to North Carolina in 2017.

Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

I moved around a lot growing up and I can remember not always loving it. But now, truly grateful for how it's shaped me. My husband was the exact opposite. He had a hometown, graduated high school with childhood friends, knowing every street, and watching every change. I think that is part of the reason we were attracted to each other. One yearning for roots, and the other for branches. Finding them within each other. Finding in each other a home and an adventure. It is hard to remember who I was before him, and hard to imagine my life without him. When I think of him... I smile, I cry, I laugh. This is what makes me feel alive.

Burlap & Blossom LLC were absolutely amazing wedding photographers! From the moment we first spoke with Gabby, we knew we had found the perfect fit. Her communication style was amazing - she was so understanding, fun, and down to earth. Gabby went above and beyond on our wedding day, even offering to fix my dress when it ripped. She had such high energy and really helped ease any and all stress we were feeling. The quality of their work is beyond amazing, and we are so thankful to have her capture our special day. Gabby is truly a gem - she is so down to earth and great with communication, letting us know right away about any delays. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding photography experience!

She was super easy to talk to, it almost felt like hanging out with one of our friends.

The quality of her photos is amazing, she asked us all the right questions and was able to deliver exactly what we were looking for. I cant wait to get my wedding photos back, the sneak peaks were fabulous! Thanks so much Olivia.
