Blythe Eland Photography

A little about me: I grew up in North Carolina, moved to Florida, and now I am back in North Carolina. When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me lounging at home with my two Aussies (because, let’s be honest, they run my household). Dogs are my world, which is why I’m always equipped with at least two lint rollers during every shoot (I’ve pretty much achieved Master Lint Roller status by now). Every moment is special and worth capturing, and my job is to help tell your story in a way that honors your love and feelings for one another.

Blythe was our favorite vendor on our wedding day. She was professional and captured every moment perfectly. Fully recommend!

Vidr Photography was amazing to work with for our summer wedding! Stephanie was easy going and understanding of our wedding style (small size, games, karaoke, casual food/drinks) and the types of candid photos we were hoping for. She took some of my absolute favorite pictures from our wedding day and got them back to us in a very reasonable amount of time. I love that she not only got great images of the people and activities we completed but also of the venue! I'm glad I'll have these pictures to look back on forever. I will definitely be hiring Vidr Photography again for my May (2021) Ph.D. graduation photos!

I’m here to help guide my fun-loving, nerdy couples through the wedding planning process and offer expletive laden compliments when they inevitably kill it at their session. Most importantly though I will celebrate this exciting time in your life with you while becoming a dear friend for years to come.

My name is Giovanna (you can call me Gio!) and I'm a traveling wedding photographer based in North Carolina. I've photographed everywhere from the DMV, NYC, Colorado, Hawaii, Spain to tons of other locations. Having a background in photojournalism, I photograph with a documentary approach which allows an organic and authentic feel to shine through my images. If you value emotion, connection, and creative storytelling, then I'm your girl. I was born in the bustling city of NY and later moved to a horse farm in NC. I was constantly amazed by my ever changing environments and inspired to capture moments that would otherwise be lost in memory.

Gio is INSANELY talented. I’ve worked with her for several life events, the biggest and most important investment being our wedding. Gio is professional and organized, a dream for any bride to work with. She has a gift for making you comfortable in front of the camera and provides expert guidance that makes shooting with her feel effortless. Her passion for her craft is palpable, and you know it’s good when she turns the camera around and says “YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!” Every album I’ve received is a breathtakingly beautiful, cinematic keepsake of the most special moments. Her work is literal ART. I’ll never forget the emotional experience of receiving our wedding album - we literally laughed and cried for hours. Every detail and moment is so intentionally and artfully captured. It’s been two years and I still swoon over our wedding photos. I’ve had several (also obsessed) friends inquire about our wedding photography and even book their weddings with Gio. She is easily one of the best investments I made for my wedding day and I can’t say enough positive things. As a repeat client, I so look forward to working with her again in the future. No question - book with Gio!

This storyteller believes that your wedding day shouldn't feel like a photo shoot, but should be full of genuine moments that are unique to your love story. As a fly on the wall with a photojournalist style, I am less concerned about "blog worthy" shots and more about the candids that show who you are and who you love. I find importance in preserving fleeting moments and the importance of printing photos, not just letting them live in an online gallery.

From our first call with Amy, we were impressed by her warmth, timely responses, and detail-oriented communication style. On the day of our wedding, Amy and her team seamlessly blended into the background, capturing all the candid, in-between moments that we will cherish forever. Amy made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and we hardly even noticed her taking photos - yet the final results were nothing short of extraordinary. The 50 (!!) preview photos she provided just days after our wedding were a wonderful surprise, and we are thrilled with the quality and value of their work (she even edited out a scrape I had from running). We cannot recommend Amy highly enough to any couple looking for a talented and professional photograger to help make their special day truly unforgettable.

I'm a wedding photographer based in Raleigh, but my roots trace back to the beautiful state of New Jersey. Photography has been my passion since I can remember, and I'm incredibly grateful to turn that passion into my profession. As a wedding photographer, I have the honor of capturing the most special moments of a couple's life and turning them into cherished memories that last forever. Beyond weddings, I love photographing families and people from all walks of life, freezing moments in time that tell unique stories.

I had been going back and forth with my now husband for months on if we should hire a photographer or use a family friend but one meeting with Nicole showed me that she was the perfect person for this job. She made me and Josh feel comfortable, safe and respected. I have never felt more beautiful than I did captured in these photos by Nicole. She felt like a part of my extended family that day and made the entire day perfect. If you're thinking of hiring Nicole, I would absolutely recommend it and you will not regret it.

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!

I love photography and often I would like to pause life to enjoy a special moment for just a little longer. I started my journey by photographing nature but was always drawn to weddings and portraits. I've been photographing weddings in Wine Country in CA since 2008. I recently moved to Raleigh, NC. It takes an experienced photographer to make people comfortable in front of the camera in order to capture their true personalities. I am available for weddings, engagements, portraits, and events in Raleigh/ Durham, NC and I am starting to offer destination weddings including Europe. I truly love what I do!

Magdalena is kind, professional and is an outstanding photographer. I have worked with Magdalena for over 10 years and she is always charming to fellow vendors and to the bridal party and their guests. I can recommend her services one hundred per cent.
