Capturing love, joy, and unforgettable moments is what I do best. As a wedding photographer, my goal goes beyond just delivering stunning photos—it's about making you feel your absolute best on your big day. From the intimate moments to the celebration on the dance floor, I’m there every step of the way, blending into the background when needed and dancing with you when it’s time to celebrate. Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I’m here to document it with heart, creativity, and a bit of fun. Let’s make memories that will last forever!

Baylee is the best photographer I’ve had in a long time! My husband and I aren’t the best at taking photos but Baylee came prepared with style and photo ideas in hand.

  • Serves Candler, NC for additional fees

Hi I’m Emma, an AR based, traveling photographer! My style is a blend of film, editorial, and artfully nostalgic imagery. I’m an observant documenter at heart. I was heavily raised on indie & coming of age films, so being moved by visuals is my cup of tea!! When it comes to your day, my goal is to direct when needed without interfering with the moment. I want to capture your spouse shedding a tear, your Uncle Jim going for his second plate of food, and your bff busting it down on the dance floor. I prefer to be a fly on the wall for these moments, but put on fergalicious and you leave me no choice but to hit the dance floor.

Emma is AMAZING! She brought our vision to life above and beyond what I could have imagined. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and we genuinely had so much fun taking photos. The photos felt like us, which was the most important thing for us. 1000/10 would recommend her!!

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your day in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

Ally Haley Photography

  • Serves Candler, NC for additional fees

I want you to be able to look back on these photos in 20 years and feel everything you felt on your wedding day. Together we’ll plan a day that doesn’t just fly by, but is full of fun, laughter, and memorable moments. No matter how your day plays out, it’s going to be magical, and I’ll be there every moment to capture it. I describe my work as documentary, timeless, and authentic. If this sounds like your vision for your wedding day, let's get this party started!

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!!

I have been in the wedding industry for going on three years now! It is where I have found my true passion. I am a mother, a wife, and a hopeless romantic! While I am an Ohio photographer, I also LOVE to travel for weddings as well. While I photograph a little bit of everything, my specialties are weddings, boudoir, couples, and maternity. I am the perfect photographer to grow with your family!

I can’t say enough good things about working with Elizabeth Gardner Photography! We had to put together our wedding in just a couple days because of a severe illness in my family, and I truly didn’t even think we would find a photographer. But once we got connected with Elizabeth, she went above and beyond to make sure our day was captured in the most beautiful ways. She was so wonderful to work with: easygoing, attentive, and caring. She thought of things we hadn’t even had a chance to consider, and though we had so little time to prepare, she was right there with us every step of the way. And the outcome was STUNNING. We couldn’t be more pleased with our photos! She helped give me a full wedding experience when I didn’t think it would be possible.

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Deb and her team did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding pictures in April 2021. The pictures are so beautiful and did a great job of capturing our day. She got the pictures back to us so quick too! Our friends and family have not stopped texting us raving about how nice the pictures came out! Would recommend Parker Photography to anyone.

From the moment we first spoke with Crisandra from Take Time Photography, we knew we had found the perfect photographers for our wedding day. Her communication was always effective, timely, and considerate, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On the day of our wedding, Crisandra's joyful and "hyped up" energy was infectious and made the experience truly fun. The photos she captured were beyond our wildest dreams - natural, beautiful, and full of the little details that made our day so special. Crisandra made me feel like the absolute most beautiful bride, and her creative poses allowed us both to feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Having done our engagement shoot with her beforehand gave us a great sense of what to expect, and the final results exceeded all of our expectations. We are so grateful to Crisandra and Take Time Photography for helping to make our wedding day everything we could have hoped for and more!

I’ve always loved photography. Yet, it wasn’t until 2008 when I began to travel internationally for work that decided to bring my Nikon D750. I was amazed when I returned home with the images to experience the magic I captured through my lens. My passion for photography was launched on the streets of Madrid, Rome, Amsterdam and Istanbul. While travel photography captivated me for several years, wedding and family photography snuck in and stole my heart. Swimming deeply in God’s grace, I believe my purpose with my talent is simple. Share love, one image at a time.

I try to put passionate and creativity into every project that I take on, I strive to craft stress-free photography experiences and images that reflect each couple’s one-of-a-kind romantic bond.

As two introverts getting married, we needed a photographer that would make us feel at ease, forget we even had staff on our day of, but also had a good hand in dealing with guests who liked to get involved in the vendors' craft. Naiya's skillful and gorgeous photos speak for themselves. We really loved working with her not only for our engagement photo session, but also the day of!!! Due to some unforseen emergency family matters, our photos were a bit late. We wish she would have given a bit more proactive communication regarding this.

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.

When it comes to wedding photographers, I was extremely picky, as I do photography myself. Once I came across Audrey, I knew that she would be a great option. Thankfully, she fell within our budget and we could not be happier. She is extremely nice and extremely patient. We continued to get compliments on how kind she was from all of our guests throughout the night. If you are looking for a photographer, I could not recommend her enough.

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is AMAZING. She did our engagement photos and I cannot speak highly enough. She was so cool to work with, had a great eye for location, and was so fantastic with coordinating our forever-awkward selves to get some incredible shots. We both get very anxious on camera but she made the whole experience so safe and welcoming that we ended up having a so much fun. Her communication throughout has been absolute top tier - we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way - and the end result is beyond our wildest dreams. 10/10, cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!

I’m a Sunshine State native, a Pisces, and a lover of the outdoors. Photography is my favorite way to connect with people. The ability to freeze a memory to look back on for years at a time is what kept me wanting more. I am forever in awe that taking photos allows me to create art, while also giving people stories to reflect on down the line.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot thank Sufia enough, for the beautiful photos that I will cherish for a lifetime. I was so nervous to take photos, as I hate having my photo taken at all, that I delayed it for so long. Now, I wish I hadn’t! I’m just seriously blown away, Sufia made me feel like a model! And she was able to capture the love we have for one another in every photo. Not only is she obviously gifted with a talent to really capture people at their most beautiful, but she is such a wonderful person to I have to say I can’t recommend Sufia Huq Portraits highly enough. She has photographed so many important milestones for my family but she truly rose above and beyond all of my expectations as a wedding photographer. I initially hired Sufia for my engagement photos but after seeing how perfect they turned out, I knew she was the only person I could trust with my wedding! On the day of my wedding it truly felt like everything was going wrong. It was raining. I got second degree burns on my chest from a steamer. I had vendors threatening to leave and the catering company stealing my food. The ONE thing that eased the stress of that day was my incredible photographer. Despite how stressed I was, Sufia managed to bring me back into the moment and to capture timeless portraits of my wedding day with my husband, closest friends, and family. When I look back through the photos of my wedding day (which I do often because I’m obsessed), I don’t think about all of the craziness. I think about those precious moments Sufia captured for me. Sufia was more than just a photographer that day. She was a cheerleader. She was a hype woman. She was a friend. She was more than just accommodating. She was flexible. She was dependable. She was KIND. Sufia is an amazing human being with an amazing talent. A wedding day is a huge deal. Sufia Huq Portraits will not disappoint in quality or in kindness.

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 am so glad I went with Alex and Tyler! They were so professional and communicative. I was able to meet with them beforehand and let them know my vision. The wedding day was perfect and they were so kind and fun to work with. They made us all feel like we were the best looking group they had ever seen. They added so much extra excitement to the day. Not to mention, the pictures were absolutely stunning and captured everything I had hoped for! I couldn't have been happier with the experience from beginning to end.

Hi! I'm Erin. I've been in the photography business since 2008. My passion for capturing perfect moments grew immensely when my babies came along. I didn't want to miss a thing! One of the things I love most about weddings is that no two are alike. I am blessed to be able to experience each and every unique day. I am married to the most precious husband I could ever dream of. We have five children and lots of pets. I enjoy spending time with my family and pets, being outdoors in nature, exploring, reading, cooking, and rescuing animals.

Allison is absoultely incredible! Out of all the vendors we chose for our wedding Allison stood out to us the most! To start she is so easy to work with, she fit right in with out friends and family and feels like a friend to us now! We aren't used to getting pictures taken and through the engagement session and wedding day we were so at ease with her presence, you can tell she is 100% there for you and listens to what you are looking for. We loved her style of photography, she captures the whole vibe and the scenery to capture not just you but the whole energy of the day! She got our pictures back SO quickly as well which was awesome to not have to wait months to see the pictures from your day. Were obsessed with her film pictures as well! We loved that she offered this! She was so flexible with our plan (we live across the country but even still it was so easy to talk to her throughout the process), reliable, and so easy and fun to work with! We will recommend her to all friends and family in the area! Honestly we feel so thankful we found her as she truly made our wedding as she fully captured the most incredible pictures that we now have forever!!
