  • Classic style

We're a husband & wife wedding photography & videography team! We're pretty big fans of each other, so we're pretty big fans of working together. We got married on 2/15/2020, and it was undoubtedly the happiest day of our lives — so now we spend our time helping others remember the happiest day of theirs through stunning photo & video. :)

We absolutely loved working with these two. They are such an amazing duo to work with and really know what they’re doing. The attention to detail, the ease of communication and most importantly the finally outcome of their work is some of the best I’ve ever seen. They have the ability to not only capture exactly what you are looking for, they are also able to capture all of those amazing candid moments as well that mean so much. At the end of the day what makes them one of the best to work with is, their attention to detail. And for them you can tell it’s not just a job, it’s a passion and it shows!

My wife and I were looking for a wedding photographer located in Raleigh, NC, or around The Triangle area with an elegant/vintage style and we are so happy we found Candy. She's amazing at what she does. She was also very flexible with our wedding date as we had to change it 2x, our guest loved how friendly yet professional she was. The sneak peaks and full gallery were delivered on time. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about her and her work.

Blythe Eland Photography 

5.0

Chapel Hill, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,639

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 Eland Photography was a dream to work with for our wedding day. Blythe Eland is not who we originally booked with (although now I wish we had known about her from the start!) The night before our wedding, our wedding photographer let us know that one half of their two person team would not be able to make it and that Blythe Eland would be filling in as second shooter. I was certainly nervous to hear this information (especially the night before) but it was clear on the day of the wedding that I had nothing to worry about. Blythe arrived early and went above and beyond. Her photo ideas and instructions were fantastic, and she seamlessly took the lead to ensure our day went off without a hitch. We were so grateful for her professionalism and talent. Since our wedding, we've had the pleasure of working with Blythe two additional times and have been consistently impressed by her responsiveness, timeliness, and the beautiful photos she captures. We cannot recommend Blythe Eland Photography highly enough.

Working with Rebecca was an absolute dream from start to finish—starting with our initial meeting, through our engagement shoot, and all the way to our wedding day! She is incredibly friendly, and she has a unique ability to make professional photos feel easy, natural, and fun. When my husband and I began searching for a wedding photographer, we knew we needed someone we felt completely comfortable with on such an important day, and Rebecca was the perfect choice. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We also feel so lucky to have worked with her amazing 'day of' team—Luisa, Chris, and Maggie. They were all not only professional but also incredibly warm and relaxed, making the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free.

It was something most photographers would have said that's not my problem. They jumped in and helped save the day not to mention the beautiful pictures at sunset that night after the storm was over. They are on the top of my trusted wedding vendors list!

I've been putting off this review for a while but only because I don't feel like I have ability to express how much I LOVED working with Jessica and how great our photos turned out! Jessica takes the time to get to know you and your partner and what your needs are. She is thorough in making sure you go over expectations, scenery, lighting, who will be in your photos, etc. She is punctual, excited, and very easy to work with! Often it can be awkward taking photos that are supposed to represent the intimate aspects of your marriage/relationship but Jessica puts you at ease and is so understanding of the situation. She gives great advice and wonderful options to choose from but if you don't love ALL of your photos I would be extremely surprised. Due to Covid-19, we had to call off the large scale wedding we had planned, we still got married, still had Jessica come for our photos but to be honest my expectation were not super high only because the lighting in the venue was terrible. While I should have never doubted Jessica's magic, but I thought to myself "how good can they be with this lighting and this boring room?". It BLEW ME AWAY how wonderful all the photos turned out despite my concerns and I ended up posting EVERY SINGLE PICTURE to our Facebook for our friends and family to see. That's how great they were! I cannot recommend her enough! Thank you so much Three Region Photography!

Hi! I'm Elise and I have been a professional photographer since 2020 and have found a love and passion for capturing weddings! I've been married to my guy since 2010 and have 4 kids. My favorite part of a wedding day is the first look and dancing at the reception! I love sushi, hiking with my family, and my plant babies

My husband and I are so grateful that we were able to work with Elise as our wedding day photographer. Her work with us started long before our wedding day, as she was incredibly proactive and chatted with us a few times before our wedding. This made the experience so smooth as we were all on the same page! Not only is Elise a wonderful communicator, but she put us at ease. We were so comfortable with us -- and we are both not people that love posing for photos. She is talented and everyone we shared our photos with was so impressed. Look no further - Elise is absolutely a wonderful photographer!

It is the biggest honor to photograph your wedding. Your wedding is a day you hope to remember for the rest of your life and I don’t take my role as a wedding photographer lightly. Whether you’re a newly engaged couple looking for a photographer for your wedding or just an engagement session I have something for you! The best moments on your wedding day are the unexpected, intimate moments.

I will post and gush about Katey as a photographer for forever. She has been a WONDERFUL woman to work with. When I first posted looking for a photographer - instead of pitching me on the phone, we met on a video call - talked about me, my wedding vision, and I never felt any pressure from her. ( I knew on the call I wanted her but what is life without a little suspense) Since then she has been a dream. She is SO communicative, she has been flexible, and it was so comfortable to be photographed by her. Besides having the actual BEST experience - both in how she worked to make it comfortable for everyone (me and my husband) and then (me and all of our families on the day of). she is also a KILLER photographer - I will always always always refer back to her incredible skill with how she photographed my day. She truly has her own vision for capturing all of (and ofcourse the best) moments in a wedding. I cannot say enough nice things about Katey. ** funnily enough my sister in law got married about two weeks before me and ended up liking Katey's pictures in our wedding better than her own. So if you read nothing but my last sentence - you will truly love working with Katey - your pictures will turn out incredible and it will be such a great and natural experience.

We're Giuliana, Brian, and Lane of Halifax Hill Studios! A photography trio based just North of Raleigh: we love photographing weddings, engagements, family portraits and everything in between! Giuliana and Brian, the founders of Halifax Hill Studios, are married as of Fall 2021! Lane is a good friend of Giuliana and Brian, who just recently joined the Halifax Hill Studios team. Most of our wedding packages include a second shooter, so we tag-team throughout wedding day to provide you with the very best service and amazing photographs.

We knew after speaking to Giuliana on the phone that we wanted to book with her. Our wedding was at the Victorian so we knew she was the expert on places for photo and how the space worked. She is such a fun (and cool) person and she worked with such a peace and ease on our wedding day. I felt like as soon as she arrived, the day was just full of fun things! She gives clear yet inviting direction with poses (we as a couple and individuals definitely liked having someone direct us in posing so we didn't just stand there awkwardly). I never felt like she was bossing us around and she asked several times if there were additional things we wanted photographed or groups of people. Giuliana made us feel right at home in front of her camera and our pictures are INCREDIBLE. I cannot speak enough to her patience and ease with family photos, portraits, and other vendors. I felt like she had quite the challenge with all of our portraits and things going on but she handled it with such ease and it truly flew by. We actually ended up with extra time to be alone during cocktail hour which we wanted but I was never sure we would actually get it with our photo list, but she made it happen! We also had Giuliana come up to us in DC for our engagement shoot which was so much fun. We had a blast shooting at the monuments and she handled the people and weather changes with such an ease which took a lot of stress off of us!

Hello my name is Mirabela, I am a wife, a mom and a woman on the go. Standing still is not in my nature! Many might wonder how did you come up with that name? Well my first born, was my inspiration, my drive. Sofia for the longest time couldn't pronounce the letter S and she would call herself Fofia. She has thought me to be a better person and made me a new me. The Sailboat on my logo represents my son Hunter known as Captain Hunter. There is many ways to look at things, and what of a better way other than capturing those angles with my camera. I don't just capture pictures, I capture a story, Your Story!

I've worked Hands-On with Maria. She was extremely professional and Goofy and funny she made the experience extremely fun. If I had the chance to work with her again I 100% would. She's an extremely creative photographer and makes her clients feel so welcome and comfortable. Have him a chance to work with her has been an amazing experience and has really grown my own work. I cannot be more thrilled with the experience I gained working with her.

Your wedding celebration is one of the most important events of your life. Leah treats it with respect and care. She doesn’t miss a thing, it’s your big day where every moment counts and every detail matters. Leah offers more than taking pretty pictures on your wedding day. She will be there to help make your vision come to life. You can count on her to have your back and lend a hand in time of need.

Leah Marie Photography + Stationery is truly the BEST! Hire Leah if you are seeking a wedding photographer to capture those special moments as this is her beautiful gifting. She was suggested and we fell in love with her personality over the phone. She was radiant, joyful and exuberant. She traveled to North Georgia to photo and without us knowing, she even photographed our rehearsal. One of the qualities that makes Leah stand out above other photographers I've worked with, (I'm an actress and on set often) is her specialized eye on composition, lighting and movement in a photo and the way she makes everyone feel at ease. The photos she captured were published a week later in the magazine BEAUTIFUL. Our wedding was featured in a 7 page spread story about our celebration. The other huge selling factor about Leah is the softness she provides in the finished photo. It is a surreal, warm, quality filled with a love light that is consistent in all of the photos she prepped and sent to us. She delivers such emotional and epic photos. Our videographer was filming and you see Leah photographing us, not missing a moment and she complimented /coordinated with our wedding palette. It was incredible. My sister consistently said how she wished she had a fraction of the talent in her wedding photographer. Leah is a rare gift. You not only get a photographer but a friend and a joyful personality celebrating your special day with you. Didn't miss a moment, talented, professional, easy to work with and turned around photos within moments.

I'm a wife, cat + dog mom, Charlotte NC native, and all around hype woman. I love capturing experiences. Above all else I love watching my couples interact with each other expressing and showcasing their relationship. What truly makes me passionate is to be able to capture their love story with artistic beauty and elegance. I love to provide them with gorgeous candid images so that every time they revisit these memories it inspires the contentment and enduring emotion they hold in their hearts from that day.

Cirque91 was amazing to work with! She paid attention to what we wanted while also giving professional advice/suggestions to maximize our experience. We received over 800 shots and every single one is better than the next! She was very organized and made it a wonderful experience. Very personable, easy to work with, and communication (which was important for me in a photographer) was amazing. Thank you Brennan!!

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!

At Fancy This Photography, my goal is to capture the essence of who you are on the most important day of your life. When I got married, my first concern with hiring a photographer is that they understood the fun and unique side of who I was, and could capture that. I want the same thing for you. My passion is working with couples who want something a bit out of the ordinary for their wedding. The couple that’s real, the one who’s willing to be exactly who they are. The one who puts their relationships as top priority, and who want the people who are most special to them in the world to witness the joy of their wedding.

Fancy This Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Amanda Law and her team were incredibly professional, individualized, and reliable in their communication style. The quality of their work was truly stunning - they captured the essence of our special day perfectly. The two photographers felt like friends we would have invited to the wedding anyway, and they were so fun to work with. They developed a great timeline for photography to ensure all of the photos we wanted were captured. Highly recommend Amanda Law and the whole Fancy This Photography group - we hope they like us because we are hiring them for all of our life events!

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.

Scarlett did such an amazing job capturing those special moments at my wedding ceremony. She made my family, and us feel very comfortable. She’s was very easy to talk to about what angles I wanted and she made sure to deliver better than what I expected! Working with her was such a pleasure, especially with her great attitude.
