Oury Memories

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Athens, GA

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Awarded Best of Zola
Grace was a pleasure to work with during the wedding planning process. She was timely in her responses and upfront with pricing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like we were herding cats, but she remained professional and efficient. Even though we were running behind schedule with getting dressed, she managed to squeeze in a few dress shots and some first look photos. Grace remained patient even as some of our friends and family showed up late for photos! As we moved between locations, she made sure I was holding my dress in a way so that I wouldn’t fall on my face. She also helped my MOH bustle my dress after the ceremony (again, so I wouldn’t fall on my face). Grace was always cognizant of the lighting on location, and how it would affect photos. Her assistant, Joey, was lovely and accommodating as well. All in all, a wonderful experience!

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

I cannot say enough good things about Emma - she is always flexible, knowledgeable, and shows up with the best energy to every event! When I wasn’t sure where I wanted to take bridals, she was happy to make suggestions based on the vibe I was going for - and I very much appreciated one less thing on my plate! She delivers high quality, beautiful photos every single time and is the artist behind so many of my most cherished memories! I would absolutely recommend Coté and Camera - you won’t regret it!

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

I fell in love with photography at a young age, while rummaging through boxes of family photographs. My favorite pictures were always the ones that felt as though you had been transported in time- a little blurry, but a lot of emotion.

If you’re looking for a kind, professional, and talented photographer then look no further, Audrey is the one for you!! She was punctual, had so many ideas for cute shots, and made sure she took time to find out what kind of pictures my now-husband and I wanted. And the photos I received left me speechless! They are stunning, and the editing is incredible. She got so many cute candid moments along with formal portraits from every angle. Audrey was the best photographer we could have asked for on our special day!

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

I recently used Shutter & Sound for my wedding and they were fantastic! The team was super friendly and really skilled at capturing all the important moments without being intrusive. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors which made everything go smoothly. When we got our photos and videos back, we were blown away by the quality and how they managed to capture the feel of our special day perfectly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch wedding photography and videography!

This isn't just your wedding, it's the beginning of your legacy. Within this beginning there are timeless moments to be captured. Jessica's attention to detail and touch of fine art allows for her to freeze those timeless moments for you to remember for years to come. The beginning of your legacy, your beautiful wedding day, should be as comfortable and fun as possible. You deserve to have a positive and relaxed day, which is exactly what Jessica delivers with each experience.

Jessica Thomas is absolutely amazing. I stumbled upon her while looking for a wedding photographer. Her photos and editing style are stunning. She was amazing to work with - easy to contact, very responsive and helpful, great with scheduling for our engagement shoot, and seriously one of the most down to earth, kind hearted people I have ever met. We had to reschedule our engagement shoot because of inclement weather and she immediately had a list of other dates she had available. Jessica even spent extra time with us capturing photos of our two year old son. She provided information before the wedding so we knew exactly what to expect the day of. Jessica brought a second photographer that was just as amazing and they both captured every part of our day perfectly! We got sneak peeks right after our wedding and she even sent me the high resolution ones in time for our Christmas cards! Our wedding gallery was also absolutely stunning and perfectly organized so we were able to look through each part of the day. I cannot recommend her enough - she captured every special moment of our day!

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.

I’ve been a photographer for over 15 years. My journey started at Mississippi School of the Arts where I first saw the magic of a photo develop in a darkroom! I have a bachelor's degree in Photojournalism from Southern Miss and worked as a professional marketing photographer for 6 years before moving on full-time to wedding photography. That important step has proven fruitful as my passion for capturing real moments has been fulfilled by capturing the magic of loving couples. Now after 2 years of booking my calendar up and meeting with beautiful people from all over the southeast, I can reliably say my expertise is serving a higher purpose.

April was so easy to work with! My wife and I had a short engagement so we had to find vendors fast. April was super accommodating and able to work with us through all the steps of engagement and the wedding. She’s professional, timely, understanding, and incredibly friendly. I would recommend her without reservation!

Growing up, my Mom taught me the importance of capturing every moment possible. She always had her disposable camera at the ready for birthday parties, graduations, holiday get-togethers, & more. I remember getting SO excited when the photos were finally developed! To this day, we look back at those photos & still feel the emotions, hear the laughs, & feel the warm embrace of loved ones who are no longer with us. Capturing these memories means everything to me because you're not just receiving a photo... You're capturing memories that will last lifetimes.

Kat was my answer to my prayers. From the first interaction and conversation to discuss my wedding, she was the sweetest and just so attentive to my vision for the pictures. She made sure to be there early to take pre wedding photos, there was quite a few changes along the day and she was quick to adapt to them and stay professional through it all. She took so many pictures and so many angles and made me feel comfortable. She also had the most unique ideas for poses. She captured all that I wanted. When I got my sneak peek pictures, I teared up as they were more than I could have imagined. They completely exceeded my and my husband’s expectations and we could not wait to see the rest. Once we received the rest, all we could do was smile. Highly recommended. Kat is the best because she is such a beautiful person and it shines through her work. She pays attention to detail and will not disappoint! So thankful that she was our photographer.

Hi, I'm Gabrielle! Love is a legacy, and photos of that love should last for a lifetime. Your wedding is the start of your greatest adventure. That’s why I capture your unique, beautiful images, so you never stop appreciating those drop-dead gorgeous moments. I’m the photographer for soulmates, lovers, and best friends for life, always here to make you feel uplifted & valued as you journey your way towards your wedding— the best day of your life. You are seen, you are beautiful, and your moments deserve the best. Are you ready for uniquely captured images you’ll remember for a lifetime?

We were beyond lucky to have Gabrielle as our wedding photographer! Her work is absolutely incredible, and the photos she captured are the best I’ve ever seen. I have two kids who were part of the big day, and she was so patient and engaging with them, making them feel comfortable and even excited about being in the photos. One thing that really stood out was how flexible she was. We didn’t need engagement photos (which were part of our contract), so she offered to take family photos instead, and they turned out beautifully. Gabrielle was incredibly organized and kept everything running smoothly. She communicated with us throughout the entire process, and on the day of the wedding, she made sure we stayed on schedule without feeling rushed. Her attention to detail and ability to capture the most precious moments made our day even more special. I feel so fortunate to have had her document these memories for us, and I can’t recommend her enough!
