If I could give Stefan ten stars, I would. Working with him was an incredible experience from start to finish. He did our engagement photos and our wedding photos and for the former he traveled to New York so we could do the shoot at a location that has a great deal of meaning to us. My husband and I are not people who are usually comfortable in front of a camera, but Stefan goes above and beyond to make sure he is prepared and that you are prepared to have the best shoot possible. He has detailed guides for both engagement and wedding shoots, which were incredibly helpful. He also meets with you to discuss your goals for the shoot, get to know who you are as a couple, and understand the vibe you are going for. Our engagement shoot was on a cold and windy day in a location unfamiliar to him and he did research, arrived early, and knocked it out of the park. For our wedding day, the timeline went exactly to plan and any stress or nerves I was feeling completely melted away because we already knew Stefan was on top of it, knew what we wanted from the day, and that we had a rapport going between us. On our wedding day, our friends and family absolutely gushed about Stefan and how great he is. I can't tell you how many times someone came up to me and said, "Who is your photographer? He is AWESOME." Stefan's style is authentic and he is incredibly skilled. The photos are breathtaking without seeming unnatural or overworked. He is great at capturing your vibe as a couple and making sure that comes through in the photos. He is so easy to get along with and can make even the least photogenic among us (pointing at myself here) comfortable in front of the camera. He is a great photographer and an even more delightful human being and I would recommend him to absolutely anyone.

First off just like that, the day got a whole lot better now that you are here! But let’s get one thing straight: if you are here, I want you to feel free to be YOU! Being true to who you are makes this process a hell of a lot easier! This is a judgment-free free safe space, and I want you to be as comfortable as humanly possible! Now that’s out the way, I'm Jovan Kiah, specializing in wedding and portrait photography located somewhere in the cornfields of Indiana. But always prepared for a photography adventure, I’m already packed with a suitcase of snacks, my passport, & playlist that spans from Disney musicals to '90s R&B hits.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry and stress about photos. Day of the wedding, she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She worked with me on some odd family and friend dynamics and eliminated any worries I had. She did a fantastic job of catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.

Christopher Ginn Photography

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

Awarded Best of Zola
Chris made the entire process so easy for us. We are not big on posing for pictures, we both would much rather enjoy the moment and be with people we love and from the very beginning Chris was great at helping us to achieve this. We officially met Chris about a year out from our wedding at our engagement session and we had the best time and the pictures were incredible. He guided us through the next steps with the wedding and prepped us for everything. I am not much of a planner so this was so appreciated. Our wedding day went so so smoothly and the pictures just helped recapture the love and fun we felt that day. We couldn't be more grateful to him for catching all of these moments so we can feel the same way we did on our wedding day everytime we look at them.

Koncept crushed it! With all the stresses that come with wedding planning, choosing KV was not one of them. They came prepared for anything and captured every moment beautifully. Dwayne was 1st shooter at our wedding and he kept us calm and relaxed to enjoy our day while still managing to get shots we didn’t even know we needed! Detail shots, first reveal, preparation, grounds, ceremony, family, reception, and all the special little moments in between. KV’s experience shows in the way they pose, use lighting, and communicate. Professional, friendly, and skilled! You may want to reinforce your coffee table because you’re going to want to print out every shot and put it out where everyone can see.

Blooming Faith Photography was a MUST HAVE vendor for our wedding. I would have rescheduled if she wasn’t available!

I consider my style to be on the photojournalistic side, documenting moments as they naturally happen but also helping to set the scene for the moments that matter most. But I'm not just here to click a camera; I'm your visual storyteller, weaving the narrative of your love into each frame. You can think of me as your co-pilot to navigating the whirlwind of your wedding day. Together, we’ll craft a seamless timeline, embrace the unexpected moments, and handle anything the day throws our way. I’ll capture every smile shared, heartfelt tear shed, and dance move busted along the way so you can focus on enjoying the magic of your special day!

Aireal is an absolute gem! From the moment we connected with her, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer for us. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (which isn’t easy!). She captured every moment perfectly—both the big, emotional ones and the sweet little candid moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Her attention to detail is amazing, and she has such a creative eye. Our photos are absolutely stunning, and we’ve received so many compliments from family and friends. What we appreciated the most was how personal and invested Aireal was throughout the entire process. She genuinely cared about making us feel comfortable and our day special and worked seamlessly with our other vendors to keep everything on track. Plus, her energy and enthusiasm were so contagious throughout the day! If you’re looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond to capture your love story, Aireal is your girl. We’re so grateful we found her and will treasure our photos forever!

She is scheduled to shoot several of my friends events as well. We adore her and you are missing out if you don’t book with her! She is easy on the pocket book AND a joy to be around.

Hi! My name is Corrina and I am an experienced documentary wedding photographer based out of the Philly suburbs. I have photographed hundreds of couples up and down the East Coast. I take a photojournalistic approach to your images so that you can be fully present to live each moment authentically with the people that matter the most to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Corrina was our engagement and wedding photographer. I really do not enjoy having my photo taken. Corrina made our posed engagement photo shoot a breeze and was more than happy to travel to multiple locations. She was fantastic with our 5 year old daughter and made us feel completely comfortable and in our element. As a creative person myself I had a vision and theme of what I wanted our engagement photos to say about us as a couple and family. Corrina not only saw my vision but also added to it. After seeing how amazing our engagement photos turned out we knew we wanted her as our Wedding Photographer. Corrina had posted online that she was looking to shoot a small wedding completely in the photojournalism style. I loved her vision. It was exactly what I didn’t know I wanted for my wedding day. The only problem was our wedding was NOT small lol. Corrina was kind enough to extend the offer to us anyway. It was THE BEST DECISION I’VE MADE! She got it all. We had no posed pictures so we were truly able to immerse ourselves in our wedding day and enjoy every single moment. She captured all the special, tender, emotional, happy, crazy moments. She never missed a beat. She was a fly on the wall and still managed to make me feel like the most important and beautiful person in the room. She connected and vibed with all our guests in the most wonderful way. Again, our pictures completely blew us away! She has an amazing eye behind the camera and her attention to detail when editing created the most stunning way to look back on the best day of our lives. If you are looking for a photographer to classically capture any of your special moments or jump outside of the box and get a little creative Corinna is your girl!!!!

Hello, I'm Kayla! Voted most likely to succeed in the field of agriculture. Yet somehow, landed here. And I wouldn't change a single thing. Life has taken me on some crazy adventures and up until 6 years ago, none of those pointed to being a photographer. Becoming a mom led me to pick up a camera and since then I haven't put it back down. I quickly developed a passion for telling people's stories. Capturing the most intimate, heartfelt moments truly sets my soul on fire.

Kayla French Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Kayla provided great communication everything leading up to the wedding and after, and the day of she couldn't have been more helpful. Kayla's work is absolutely amazing - you can tell she loves what she does and it really shows in the beautiful photos she captured. Kayla helped in every way to contribute to our special day, and our guests really enjoyed her presence and positive energy. We are thrilled with the sneak peaks and can not wait to see final photos. We would highly recommend Kayla French Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

They were so fun to work with and on the wedding day, provided great support for timeline and guidance. They even had our sneak peek pictures ready DURING our reception for guests to view— which both we & the guests were in awe of. I can’t recommend them enough!

I absolutely love LOVE. I would love to capture your love story and give you images you will cherish for a lifetime. Capturing beautiful images is important but to me capturing beautiful moments is the most important. I’m a big fan of morning walks with my family, running, cycling, hiking, good music, sunny days, last minute trips, and apple products. I love Jesus, my wife, my daughter Harper, my son Smith, traveling, experiencing new cultures, my family, and helping others. As a husband, I firmly believe in marriage and want to do my best to capture all that it means to get married and to celebrate that with you through photography.

Let me just start by saying that Adam is ABSOLUTELY worth the hype. From the moment we first spoke over the phone I knew he cared just as much about our wedding as we did. He understood how important photographic memories are to me and went above and beyond to capture genuine moments throughout the night. He brought a contagious professional yet fun energy that kept everyone feeling welcome and relaxed all day which made for beautiful photos. If you and your partner are not sure how you’ll feel in front of the camera… no worries! I can attest that Adam doubles as your professional hype man from the moment he arrives. He made me and my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera and the proof is in the photos. Adam truly does it all! You won’t regret having him as part of your day!

I'm a professionally-trained journalist turned self-taught wedding, elopement and portrait photographer based in Clarksburg, West Virginia. I thrive on fun, authentic interactions and I love making the most camera shy people feel like rock stars. My style relies heavily on natural and candid moments, I want your images to transport you back to that special day as it was— the laughs, the goofy glances, that one tear that rolls down your partner's cheek as they see you walking down the aisle for the first time. To me, photography is a lot more than just pretty photos — it's an experience and a real part of your day.

Kailee is so, so wonderful to work with! She answered all of my questions prior to booking and was helpful to me for the whole wedding process! We met on FaceTime, communicated frequently about my wants and answered all questions I had. She is very knowledgeable of the vendors in my area and was able to provide me with several recommendations. She made the day of my wedding a breeze because I was not worried about how my photos would be captured! She was able to fix some of the things I requested quickly on my photos when I received them. 100/10 experience and will gladly be booking with her again for other photo sessions!

So this is funny, when I was little, I was obsessed with the movie "The Wedding Planner." So much obsessed, I wanted to be a wedding planner someday. Jump into the future 20 years and my obsession with weddings has brought me to here! I love photographing weddings! From the gowns, the florals, the venue to the couple and the journey they are stepping into together! Weddings are a special day for not only the couple, but two families to come together to celebrate love and life together as one. And your photos should represent that life you are creating. Colorful, bold and full of energy. So let's plan, have fun and photograph your dang day!

I’m here with my team to help guide you along the way and keep you stress-free and happy. Let ya tackle the day for you and make sure your day is documented from start to finish. With a passion ignited and an organized photo crew, there’s nothing to be missed and more time for you to enjoy your day, just as it should be!

Nikki is an absolute joy to work with. She was super responsive and open to ideas. She has such a creative eye and sticks true to herself while giving you what you need/want. My husband is not much of pictures guy and she worked wonders with him!! She had us laughing and relaxed and the pictures came out perfect!! We've done 2 shoots with her now and planning a third.

Awarded Best of Zola
Amazing is the first word that comes to our minds when we think of Daniel! Within an hour after we contacted him online he reached out to us to collaborate about our wedding. Throughout the entire process, Daniel listened to our vision while incorporating his own flair. The finish products received were that of a fairy tale wedding. From the original planning, to the calls, to the engagement shoot, to the engagement album, to the lead up to the wedding, during the wedding, and after he was extremely easy to work alongside. During the wedding, we were not “bothered” by him and we barely knew he was there. He captured moments during the day that we couldn't even dream about. When we received the proofs we couldn’t imagine all the angles he, and his second photographer, Ryan, were able to capture. Daniel offers the highest quality product, amazing vision, and results that are out of this world. Daniel offers such extraordinary professionalism in his art that it left us speechless. There aren’t enough stars to give Daniel a true rating. Above and beyond, unprecedented results, and a lifetime of memories. Haley and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

Hey y'all! Welcome and congrats on your engagement! I'm Aliyah, a photographer based in Texas, but available anywhere. If I'm not out shooting, you can find me listening to crime podcasts and chasing my two toddlers around. I'm a hopeless romantic and I've probably binged watched every cheesy Hallmark movie. I celebrate ALL love! I strive to make my couples feel comfortable and confident no matter what. I love to laugh and have fun so let's get this party started!

Awarded Best of Zola
Aliyah photographed our engagement shoot and wedding in the summer of 2022. Her photos are absolutely beautiful and we love them so much!! We are truly overwhelmed by all the special moments that she captured. We were also so impressed with her turnaround time on sharing the photos, which were super easy to view and download via her online platform. But most importantly, we had so much fun working with her (and her assistant, Amani! Shout-out to Amani)! Aliyah is great to be around and made us feel totally comfortable. After our engagement shoot, it felt like she was an old friend by the time of the wedding and we were genuinely so happy to have her there. One of the best pieces of wedding advice that we have is to get a photographer that you think will mesh well with your friends and family, put you at ease with all the intense emotions of the day, and bring fun and positive energy to the party. Aliyah is all those things and more, and she has our highest recommendation.

Hey friends! My name is Mandi and I'm a Baltimore-born lover of traveling, kitty cats, and ice cream! I am the happiest girl in the world when I am by the water. Being outside enjoying the warm sun, feeling a cool breeze, and laughing with friends and family by the Chesapeake just make my heart sing! When I’m not busy working on beautiful weddings, I’m trying to motivate myself to go for a run or I’m curled up on the couch with my husband, my 3 cats & a true crime doc. You'll always find me decked out in bright colors, no matter what time of year! As a native Marylander, I love getting out and exploring more of my home state - and beyond!

I could not recommend Mandi from Chesapeake Charm enough!! She was the photographer for our wedding in 2021 at Rosewood Farms in Elkton, MD. As soon as I saw Mandi’s photography when we were wedding planning, I knew that we needed her for our wedding - she was one of the first vendors that we booked! I fell in love with the bright & airy style of her photos. I absolutely loved working with her, from our initial consultation meeting to our wedding day. We even had her do our family photos with our baby for Christmas in 2023! You will absolutely not regret hiring Mandi as your photographer!

Congratulations!! What an exciting time in your life! I am truly honored that you have taken then time to consider me as your wedding photographer. Here's some fun facts about me... I am obsessed with sunsets, pickles are my favorite food, and espresso and tequila are my favorite drinks! I'm a mom of 3 teenagers, I have photographed a living president, and I've always lived close to water, but the mountains are my favorite place! Frank Sinatra is my favorite singer, I've acted in a movie, and I've watched every Marvel movie in chronological order. My biggest bucket list item is to travel the world and photograph in other countries!

Terah was absolutely amazing! She truly exceeded our expectations. She came fully prepared with a shot list and easily worked around some hiccups we had along the way. Our teaser photos turned out amazing and we can’t wait to see the rest. I cannot recommend her enough!
