Hi, I'm Laurel! I love to capture authentic, candid moments between you and your loved ones, as well as variations on classic poses. I like to think of myself as a storyteller for sweethearts in love. I specialize in natural light wedding photography, with an emphasis on fine art and candid images. On wedding days, my second shooter is my sweet husband, Jakub– that’s right, we are a husband and wife team! I love shooting all the emotion-filled moments and delicate details on your wedding day, and I couldn’t imagine doing it without Jakub by my side. We when aren't photographing, we are usually spending time with our Holland Lop, Beau!

I have had the pleasure of working with Laurel Calabek Photography on many Weddings. They have gone above and beyond for all of the couples that we have worked together with. They have a great eye for details. I had a Wedding with them I a windy and rather bad day that the best was made of from putting centerpieces back on the table to helping move stuff in and out of the rain. 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!

Hi, I'm Coby! I am so excited you are here! It is a privilege to be invited to some of the most pivotal and beautiful moments in people's lives. My couples choose me to preserve true, honest memories of their newly forming family tree. They trust me to truly see these connections and document them with professionalism and artistic ability so that they come away with photos that are treasured for the rest of their lives.

Where to even begin?! We met Coby at a bridal show and she was so warm and open right from the beginning. We met for coffee and discussed how we wanted our wedding to be, and we just knew she was who we wanted as our photographer. She helped with planning so when our wedding day arrived, it was simply perfect! We woke up the day after our wedding to beautiful sneak peeks and our whole wedding album was complete a few weeks later. The whole process was simply amazing!

Kivus & Camera

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

I used to be a divorce attorney, I had brain surgery, and now I'm a wedding photographer. Yes, you read that right. But there's obviously more to the story. Before going to law school I went to school for photojournalism and even worked for newspapers. After brain surgery turned my life upside down, I realized I wanted to go back to my roots as a photojournalist and I wanted to capture truly joyful, enthusiastic moments and voila - I fell in love with weddings and photographing them.

The vibrant colors that Elyssa captures are my favorite! Besides being super talented she is a delight to be around. She is approachable, yet completely professional. I have worked with Elyssa on many weddings and it has always been a great experience. I would highly recommend Kivus & camera!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

Emma was an absolute dream to work with! Quick to respond to messages; very helpful with location scouting and wardrobe choices. She promised to have our gallery edited and delivered within 2 weeks of our shoot date and she did not disappoint! My fiancé and I are absolutely in love with our photos - they're everything we had hoped for, and then some! I sent Emma a plethora of inspo photos on Pinterest and now I feel like I have my very own Pinterest board of photos that are all of me and my fiancé - they are perfection! We hope to work with Emma again in the future - cannot recommend her enough!

Megan Pitts Photography

  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

My philosophy is simple... I am here to tell the story of the day you married the love of your life. I want to document the excitement of you getting ready with your best friends, the look on your mother's face when she sees you in your dress for the first time, and the tears your father cries during the father - daughter dance, and that "Oh my God, we are really married?!" look of joy on your faces as you walk down the aisle as a married couple for the first time. I will pose you and guide you when necessary, but I believe when you are focusing on each other and really soaking in those moments --- that's when the magic happens.

Megan's photography skills are simply unmatched. From our engagement session to our wedding day, she effortlessly captured the essence of our love story, creating timeless memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. During our engagement shoot, Megan made us feel comfortable and relaxed, allowing our personalities to shine through in every photograph. When it came to our wedding day, Megan exceeded our expectations once again. She effortlessly blended into the background, capturing candid moments and genuine emotions with an artistry that is truly remarkable. Megan's photographs tell the story of our day with authenticity and grace. She went above and beyond to ensure that every shot was perfect. Megan's passion for her photograph is evident, and it shines through in every photograph she takes. She has a gift for capturing the beauty and creating images that are both breathtaking and full of meaning. We are beyond grateful for her talent, dedication, and professionalism, and we recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer who will capture their most precious moments. Thank you, Megan, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!

Your Love Story. Told through imagery as vibrant and authentic as you are. Hello, friend! My name is Maria, and along with my husband, Donny, we are the husband and wife foundation of Vimana Photography & Cinema, LLC. We have over a decade in business, global and nationwide clientele, and focus on timeless, authentic, and fun documentation of your wedding day, through fine art photography and cinematic videography. When we aren’t behind the camera, I enjoy interior design, gardening, our menagerie of pets, and travel. Ask us about capturing your destination wedding!

My husband and I got married 10.21.23 and the photos from the wedding were miraculous and we are so I love with them. They are ALL so good and there are 1200 photos. We had them shoot our wedding for 10.5 hrs on the wedding day. The experience before the wedding day was amazing too. They did not include a travel fee which was a big perk. Even though our wedding was in Waxhaw, NC, we had an engagement shoot in Oct 2022 in Montreat NC which they did amazing with as well. We have not seen our wedding video yet but are SO excited and can only imagine what it will be like. Totally Recommend this husband and wife duo for photo video.

We were so worried about finding the "perfect" photographer for our big day, but Kristen Thomison was an answer to prayer! She is a precious person who goes above and beyond to make sure the client has exactly what they want and envision. Before booking with her, she made me a Pinterest board of what her vision was for our big day based on our venue parameters and our personal wishes. This extra detail that she chose to provide helped me to feel settled in my decision, trusting we had the same vision! Furthermore, she gets to know her clients on a personal level so she can write our story pictorially. She is incredible and gives her heart and soul to what she does!

It is the greatest privilege in life to capture such meaningful photos on the most important days of our lives. The trust and vulnerability from each person I work with is something I take very seriously. I am so thankful to choose this profession because of how much joy it brings me to document two people coming together in the name of Love, with their most cherished friends and family surrounding them.

Where do I start? Casie’s all around professionalism and talent make her stand out in the large crowd of wedding photographers. I hired Casie nearly a year before my wedding and she was able to answer any questions I had during that time. She was also such great company on my wedding day - never taking up “too much space”, while also being there whenever I needed assistance. She made ALL of my specific visions come true while simultaneously providing some incredibly unique surprise shots in my gallery as well. I cannot recommend Casie enough!!!!

LindseyK Photography specializes in capturing romance and emotion. Waiting for the sun to gleam just right through the trees, having finger on trigger awaiting that moment dad wipes a tear from his daughter's eye during their dance, or pulling the bride and groom away for some alone time during sunset to capture that forehead kiss. These are the moments... the moments of subtle, real, beautiful emotion that float through a busy wedding day easily forgotten unless captured. The importance of your bouquet broach, notes shared, jewelry worn, groomsmen toasts, ..even quirky socks, all tell the story of your day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I saw Lindsey's work on IG and knew it was something special! When we met her in person the first time having tacos, I was sold. She is poised, professional, fun, and to the point. I adored engaging with her. She made us feel so special at our engagement photos and was open to help us think about places that would suit our style. When it came to our wedding, I knew we were in great hands and she provided sooooo many wonderful photos and memories. All of our friends and family LOVED working with her. This woman is the real deal and her photos are FABULOUS!

Welcome to Your Love My Lens, where our team of passionate photographers is dedicated to capturing your love story. Our collective expertise spans across various backgrounds and styles, ensuring that every moment is captured with care and creativity.

Awarded Best of Zola
Planning my wedding was definitely exciting, but had a lot of stressful moments because I can be a perfectionist and very indecisive. I think I was mostly nervous about booking a photographer because eventually people will forget the details maybe even the dress I chose, but the pictures are forever. So that was what I wanted to be absolutely perfect. Let me tell you… my prayers were answered when I found Rabab!!! I was immediately drawn by her absolutely stunning work, and I knew that was exactly what I wanted for my wedding. When I met Rabab in person, to discuss my needs for a photographer and get a quote, I was instantly put at ease when I met her. She has a way of making anyone feel very comfortable with her charismatic personality. She is also funny and made me feel like we were friends instantly! She was able to customize what I was looking for which was really nice because other photographers that I reached out before had a very rigid package that they offered. Rabab genuinely cares and always aims to please. When I first saw our engagement photos, I literally cried tears of joy. There’s only been a couple of other times in my life when that has happened. I just genuinely felt so overjoyed and completely ecstatic with Rabab‘s PERFECT work!!! I am not comfortable taking pictures because I don’t feel that I’m photogenic and again I am super picky and a perfectionist, but Rabab captured my very best features and angles, and made me look better than I ever have! I was instantly ecstatic to see what our wedding pictures would look like, and she did not disappoint me once. She is super professional, kind, genuine, and offered to help me the day of my wedding with little things that she didn’t have to do with her role as my photographer. looking back on my wedding day there are certain things I would do differently… but I am the most grateful for Rabab! I will forever be more than satisfied and overjoyed that I chose her to be our wedding photographer. Her stunning work speaks for itself!!! she is crazy talented, and absolutely brilliant! She is also a brilliant artist, it’s so inspiring to meet someone that talented in so many ways! She is someone that I consider an honor to know, and have worked with. Trust me… The best decision you can make is hiring Rabab. She is everything a wedding photographer should be and so much more, she exceeded my already perfect expectations!!

I have been doing photography for a little over 3 years. I'm so thankful to all my clients that chose me from the start of my journey of becoming a Photographer, they truly shaped who I am as a photographer today. My true passion didn't really begin until a year ago that I found out my "why" behind taking photos and since then it has completely changed my perspective on being a photographer. I love having the ability to impact somebody's world for the greater with just one photo. If you made it to the end, thank you for reading!! and I hope I see an inbox inquiry from you!

I am a lifelong artist. I got into photography when I picked up a camera to do a portfolio. One friend after another asked me to take pics for them after I did an artist album cover. Then one day a friend asked me to document a wedding. My first was rough but it has been weddings ever since. I love capturing love with my perspective. I have a laid back approach and help my couples feel at ease along with their families

Shagari was a dream to work with. He made sure we were having fun and captured the full essence of our day. Communication was excellent before, during and after our wedding. We get compliments on our photos all the time. Would have another event so we could book him again!

Kelsie Elizabeth Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Chapel Hill, 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!
