Rosewater Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day. From the very first interaction, Haley was communicative, approachable, and truly cared about ensuring our special day was captured perfectly. Her work is of the highest quality, with bespoke and beautiful images that truly captured the essence of our wedding. Both Haley and her second photographer were able to seamlessly work the crowd, putting everyone at ease, and my mother in particular LOVED working with her. Haley was also willing to work within the specific style we had provided, ensuring the final photos aligned perfectly with the aesthetic vision of our wedding. We couldn't be happier with the memories she helped create, and both my Fiance and I highly recommend Rosewater Photography to any couple planning their big day.

Hi there, my name is Ellie, welcome to McKenzie Studios! I'm a traveling wedding and elopement photographer based in Birmingham Alabama. From the US to the UK, Photography has always been a passion of mine, and documenting the craziness of my own life has been so fun to look back o over years. This is why I know how important it is to capture all those special little moments that make life so special.

To say Ellie is amazing would be an understatement. My now fiancé worked with Ellie to plan a “photoshoot” for a surprise proposal. I had mentioned that I wanted our photos to not look “autumn-y” which was a big ask considering it was beginning of November. Somehow she made it happen and our photos came out exactly how I wanted. As for the additional work she put in to the proposal prep, she went above and beyond helping my fiancé set up the picnic and overall story line to get me to the point of the proposal without any idea of what was to come. She is just such a genuine person and I would recommend her to ANYONE looking for a photographer in the Birmingham area!

Hey my name is Taylor Pickle. I’m a photographer based in Birmingham Al. I’ve been doing photography for 2 years. I would love to take your wedding pictures and capture your memories! I would love to be apart of your special day! 🤍

Taylor was called in at the very last minute when our wedding photographer woke up sick the morning of. She did a fantastic job and not once did I see her stressed! We have quite a few kids and she captured them all beautifully. The photos of our ceremony and reception were stunning as well and really captured the day well. Both the indoor and outdoor pictures were beautiful. Nothing was edited in an unnatural or unflattering way, and I enjoyed the mix of grayscale and color images she provided us. Absolutely recommend her!

My friends would describe me as a sunny and bright person, and that’s how I photograph. I love capturing joy and making sure that the session feels that way too. I am the youngest sister of four girls and it have always been surrounded by creativity (and girls borrowing all my clothes). My favorite thing is bringing that creativity and fun to my sessions, and I can’t believe I get to bring my passion to my job each day.

My husband and I loved getting to work with Krista for our family and couples photos. She's such a joy to be around, so sweet and is super reliable. We felt like we could trust her with our memories and really enjoyed her easy direction for when we were in front of the camera. Plus the final images are perfect and are printed all over the walls in my house!

Hey Y'all! Thanks for stopping by! I am a bright, colorful, and classic wedding and lifestyle photographer located in Birmingham, Alabama! I believe in love and marriage, and think it is something to be treasured! I love capturing joy in people's lives, so I believe that is why capturing weddings and families are my favorites. Especially since becoming a mother myself, weddings and family sessions have even more importance to me now than ever! I consider it an honor to capture memories for my clients- whether thats on your wedding day, your anniversary, welcoming a new baby, or your children's milestones.

One of the best investments of our wedding was choosing Chelsea as our photographer! I've had so many people tell me that our photos are some of the best they've ever seen, and I couldn’t agree more. Chelsea is one of the kindest people and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, both for our engagement and wedding photos. She even went above and beyond to use her own dress to wipe something off my husband’s suit when we didn’t have any napkins around! Her second shooter on the day of the wedding was also amazing and a joy to work with. They captured every moment and more than I could have imagined! Chelsea is truly gifted at what she does, and you can tell how much she loves it. Trust me, you want her as your wedding photographer! I cannot wait to use her again for future family photos!

Bonie Wedding was great to work with. From the start process, the communication was easy. Hannah was our lead photographer with Emily and Lactoya were our videographers, who were both great teams. I highly recommend using Bonie weddings for both photo and video, as the two teams worked together without any trouble. During the reception, we barely noticed their presence, yet every time we looked up they were there recording everything. It was so nice to know that your special day was captured from start to finish, without feeling overwhelming. We appreciated Hannah and Emily's directions for all the photos. The production team was great as well. Very responsive and easy to communicate. They make the entire process clear and concise, which is appreciated when the wedding planning process and day off can feel overwhelming. Our wedding was not even 2 weeks ago and we already received our video trailer, as well as some sneak peek pictures from Hannah via Dropbox. Hannah also did our engagement shoot and it was fun and easy. We loved how our pictures came out and are so eager to see the rest. Thank you Bonie!

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

The photos are breathtakingly beautiful and so true to life— just authentic moments and natural colors that perfectly captured the feel of the day. Every time we look at them, it’s like reliving our wedding all over again. Eugene was a pro at blending in seamlessly—catching the little candid moments while still guiding us gently through the posed shots when needed. He made everything feel so effortless and fun! If you want stunning photos and a photographer who makes the entire process stress-free, we can’t recommend Eugene enough!

JMF Photography was born out of a deep-rooted passion for visual storytelling. My journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to capture the beauty and emotion of life’s fleeting moments in a way that transcends time. It all started with photographing my children’s sports events, where I discovered my love for the craft. Recognizing the potential to freeze not just a scene, but the essence of a memory, a feeling, or a story, I decided to go back to school to hone my skills. Now, I photograph something almost daily, continually refining my art.

Our company has had the pleasure of working with James from JMF Photography on multiple occasions, and each experience has been exceptional. James consistently demonstrates a high level of professionalism and courtesy, ensuring that every event is captured beautifully, even under unique and challenging circumstances. James is always the first person I recommend when clients ask for a reliable and talented photographer. His ability to listen and understand our needs, combined with his skill in capturing the best shots in various settings, makes him an invaluable asset. I highly recommend James and JMF Photography for anyone seeking top-notch photography services.

I'm Autumn. Baker, reader, musical-lover, photographer. I love experiencing art in every form, and I'm discovering I love creating it too. For so long there has been a bubble around art, and a body guard dictating who can or can't enjoy or create it. I'm all about bending, breaking, and recreating ancient and archaic rules. There is no one saying what you can or can't create. And if there is, I'm right there with you to block out the noise. With me, you can recreate the stuff of dreams. Absolute magic.

Kelsey is a dream to work with. I looked through her portfolio and knew I wanted to work with her. Not only did I love the engagement shoots she has done, but it was amazing to see that she had done a lot of weddings at the venue I picked. I had her do my engagement photos & 6hrs for the wedding. She was very responsive anytime I reached out. I know wedding season is very busy, I never felt like I was left hanging. While my new husband is comfortable in-front of the camera, I was very much not. Kelsey is great at guiding and making you feel comfortable. Our engagement photos were something different from her portfolio, the arcade, and she did a phenomenal job like I knew she would. Stephanie assisted us on the day of the wedding and she was wonderful too. I provided a detailed shot list for the family portraits and she did a great job navigating the family. After dinner Kelsey was able to provide me with a sneak peek of my photos. I am so excited to see the rest of my photos!

Ever since I can remember, I've been captivated by the power of a single moment to tell a whole story. As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Caleb was fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, he had excellent communication(from the time we booked him for our wedding.) Caleb made sure to touch base constantly to make sure everything was going good, and to see if we needed anything from him, and to send him any photo ideas we had. He was punctual to the wedding, and his professionalism and laid back style, was perfect for us and our wedding. By the time we got home from our wedding reception, he had already sent us some edited photos. Caleb’s editing style also matches the look we were after. He always had pose suggestions for us, constant ideas for how to take group shots large or small. He made us, our family and our wedding guests VERY comfortable.

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

Wild Elegance

  • Serves Bessemer, AL

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Heyyy there! I’m Kiersten, the founder and creative force behind the lens. Born and raised in West Virginia, this beautiful state is what I call my home. I’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024. I’m passionate about capturing that best friend type of love—the real, raw, and candid moments that make your relationship unique. On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kiersten for my wedding, and I can't recommend her enough. From the moment we met, her professionalism and passion for photography were evident. She took the time to understand our vision and was super easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. On the big day, Kiersten was a true pro—capturing all the special moments without being intrusive. She managed to blend into the background while still getting all the key shots we wanted. The candid shots really stood out. The final photos blew us away. The quality and creativity were top-notch, and we received countless compliments from our friends and family. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who delivers stunning results and makes the process enjoyable, Kiersten is your person. You won’t regret it!
