Shawnee Custalow Studios 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Candor, NC

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

We are a photography team from Charlotte NC that is focused on you and your experience. We would love to have the chance to serve you in any way possible, from an intimate elopement to a full Wedding and Engagement Package.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jonathan is not only an incredible photographer who made great photos both for our engagement and wedding, he’s also SO fun to work with. He’s the nicest guy and put us at ease through the entire process, especially when we were not used to taking posed photos. He also was a master of getting the family and wedding party photos done in a flash so we could get back to the party. We were so pleased with our galleries, the quick delivery times, and communication throughout the whole process with several check-in meetings. He got all the types of photos we wanted from the big day and even captured the small moments we didn’t even know he caught in the moment. We can’t wait to look fondly back at these in the decades to come. He cared about our wedding just as much as we did. We feel like we got a ton of value out of our package! We absolutely would hire Jonathan and his great assistants again and again.

I own a Wedding DJ company and have had the opportunity to work alongside Karen and her team on several occasions. Anytime a client of mine says that they are working with Karen, I am ecstatic. She is very attentive and cares so much about her clients. I have seen her go above and beyond to get the perfect shot. I have seen the finished gallery to some of the weddings we have worked together and love how she is able to capture so many memories and emotions.

Emily Cloutier Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Candor, NC

When I shoot photography, it’s not about composing the perfect pictures or getting a great shot. Yes, those things are essential. But, to me, photography is so much more. It’s about capturing a moment in time that you will forever be able to look back on and feel something magical.

Emily has taken pictures for us on multiple occasions including our wedding, family pictures, and professional pictures for our business. And there’s a reason we keep coming back! What we love most is that Emily brings life to our pictures. They’re not just portraits, she captures the energy of the moment and expresses our life through her photographs. Whether it’s an important moment in our lives we wish to remember or, as with our professional portraits, a representation of us to show the world, she brings out who we are rather that just making an image of us.

Hey there! We’re Sam and Nick, the photographers behind Anorda Photography and we’re so pumped you’re here.

Hiring Sam (Anorda Photography) to be our photographer for our wedding was the single best decision we made.

Her work and style is incredible. She made me feel comfortable the entire day and kept timelines in order. She honored all our crazy family photo requests and was able to handle the crowd. We loved working with Sam and highly recommend anyone to hire her for your photography needs!!

Tuuba Tuncer Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Candor, NC

I’m Tuuba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have an MFA from Boston University in visual arts. Photography has been more than a hobby for me. Throughout my life and education, I have often used photography as a medium to explore my artistic endeavors. *pronounced “Too-baa”

We loved working with Tugba so much! From the moment I (the bride) met her I knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did; she was very professional (responsive to communications, patient with the number of questions we had) and accommodating throughout the entire three years that we worked with her as we had to reschedule our wedding TWICE! Tugba has such a wonderful eye and is very experienced; she captured all the key moments that we indicated we wanted captured, and took other photos we didn't even know that we wanted but are so glad that we have. Also, neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Tugba directed us into the best lighting and poses to make sure we looked our best. She and her second photographer were as unobtrusive as possible throughout the event, while still managing to capture some really amazing candid shots that we are going to cherish as much as the posed ones. We do not have the words to express how much we love our wedding photos -- they are gorgeous and every time we look at them we are able to relive our magical day. We would highly recommend Tugba for your photography needs.

Tom Waldenberg Photography

  • Serves Candor, NC

Hi, I'm Tom! I'm a husband, dad (of 2 humans, 1 dog, 1 cat, and 4 chickens), and have loved weddings since my first reception conga line in 4th grade. When I'm not photographing weddings, you'll find me tending my vegetable garden, eating Tex-Mex, rewatching RuPaul's Drag Race and going for hikes around North Carolina & visiting family in New England.

We had an amazing experience with Tom as our wedding photographer! Before the wedding, he was quick to respond to any communication and very intent on making sure he knew what he wanted. At the wedding, he was very professional and went above and beyond every step of the way. He was attentive and captured every special moment. The photos are really amazing and he did an excellent job directing us and our families during the posed photos and capturing candid moments without intruding. He got our gallery to us quickly and the photos were beautifully compiled. We cannot recommend Tom enough!

Lydia even delivered our gallery ahead of schedule! I highly recommend her :)

Kelsie Elizabeth Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Candor, NC

From her high school darkroom days, to full time wedding and family photography, Kelsie leaned into her passion of capturing couples’ stories as they unfold. As a student of the Art Institute of Boston and Maine Photographic Workshops, art has always been an outlet for Kelsie. In addition, her Culinary Arts and Hospitality degree and extensive experience in catering and event management, gives her an advantageous eye for the details. Enjoying colors, fabrics, and florals, she is able to capture both the celebratory love shared at a wedding as well as the design and beauty surrounding the couple and their guests.

Having Kelsie as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding! Kelsie is fun, thoughtful, organized, flexible, and such a talented photographer. Her previous experience as an event planner shone through as she kept in touch and asked careful questions to get to know us and think through our vision. Covid got in the way of many of our plans and we had to reorganize our whole wedding just days out, but Kelsie’s eye for balancing big moments and small details really captured all the special parts of our day. We couldn’t be more thrilled with how our photos and wedding album turned out!
