For those playfully and deeply in love! Color and Beam provides artful film and digital hybrid wedding and elopement photography based in Southern California and Texas, available for travel. I’m a storyteller, but the picture book kind. I usually skip the words and pore over the pictures. I geek out over colors, light, and movement, so it makes a lot of sense that photography is where I’ve landed.

Over the course of three days in NYC, Haley was not only very flexible, professional, and prepared, she took the most incredible photos that felt so ‘us’ and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives.

I'm Erin. I'm a photographer, traveler, and wide-eyed wonderer. I split my time between the Midwest and my bungalow near the beach in Oceanside, CA. My favorite pastimes include exploring Disneyland, watching Schitts Creek & Ted Lasso, and cuddling my dog. I have a loud laugh. I love cabernet franc, chocolate chip cookies, and I'm on a constant search for the best tacos in the world.

Erin is an incredibly warm person and immediately made us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot. We had never done a shoot like this and were nervous and worried about feeling awkward, but her easygoing demeanor and natural instructions took all the stress off of us and we really enjoyed the experience. Erin has a detailed eye and a talent for capturing the natural beauty of the outdoors which was important to us. After our first great experience, we asked her to shoot our wedding as well on a cliff overlooking Sedona, AZ. She captured the scenery and golden hour lighting in breathtaking shots that were flattering of us and perfectly captured the grandeur of the red rocks around us. We will treasure the photos forever. Thank you Erin!

Hi! I'm Ashley. My business was built on a foundation of love and dedication. I've been photographing weddings for over two years and have the expertise you need. As a fully trained professional, you can be sure that no matter what your wedding day throws at us, I will be prepared and have a solution in mind. My smallest wedding package includes just myself, but my top two packages include a second shooter to capture every moment possible. I'm a hardworking business owner, with one goal in mind; client satisfaction!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me tell y’all about this amazing chic! She came in and saved the day! We lost our photographer about 2 weeks before our wedding, we knew it wasn’t the right fit for us. I reached out to Ashley Painter Photography and she made time in her busy schedule ( while finishing grad school, being a mom, wife, and running a business!) to travel 2 hours each way to capture our day. Not to mention working hand in hand with our DJ on a timeline of events to make sure she was in the right spot at the right time to capture the best shots! Our contract said allow 16 weeks for full gallery, she said “ girl, don’t you worry, I won’t make you wait that long” and here we are, 3 weeks later and completely surprised, she delivered a full gallery of the most amazing moments of our day. If you’re ever in the Charleston, South Carolina area and need some pictures done remember to call the best! It’s so much more than just snapping pictures

Danielle Christine Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Charleston, SC

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

Awarded Best of Zola
Danielle was AWESOME. We loved working with her from quick zoom calls to the actual day, she was there for us the whole time. She was also incredibly accommodating and was flexible on options (had her photograph our welcome event vs. engagement session). She is fun and makes you feel comfortable when she is shooting you! Couldn't recommend her more to everyone!

As a hopeless romantic with a fondness for all things vintage, I specialize in capturing timeless photos of the details and moments celebrating the love of your day. Utilizing natural light as much as possible as to not create an artificial mood, I consider my style to be photojournalistic, with a relaxed, natural feeling, even during formal portraits. Overly staged portraits and calculated setups aren't really my jam. After the party's over, my work continues, using post-processing software like Lightroom and Photoshop, ensuring you and your photos look their best and unique!

Carrie was absolutely amazing to work with! We connected with her instantly and had a great time communicating with her throughout the entire wedding planning process, and during the wedding itself.

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 loved working with Fofia Studio Creations and Mirabela! Not only are her photos gorgeous but she is so easy to work with. She really pays attention to the details and strives to make everything as easy as possible for her couples and other vendors. I definitely recommend working with her!

Hi! We're Julie and Rad. We met in Vietnam in 2016, and have lived in eight countries together since then. During our time abroad we've had plenty of adventures, seen incredible wildlife, eaten a lot of wonderful food, and honed our photography skills. We also got married in 2020! Planning a wedding during a pandemic involved an unusual set of challenges. Although our guest count was a little smaller than we originally anticipated-- the day could not have been more perfect. This was made possible only because we hired and trusted the right people. We try to instill the same trust so you can enjoy your day!

They provide a timeless and elegant look that truly captures the essence of a wedding day. I am based in New England, but I travel often for weddings!

The old cobblestone roads of Boston and the skyline of NYC. Charleston, SC is somewhere I would like to call home one day but for now traveling there for weddings and engagements might be my favorite.

My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

We would recommend Stabor to anyone looking for not only an amazing photographer but a deeply kind person. Shayla managed to keep our day running smoothly while capturing every moment in both a beautiful and candid way. She was so patient with our huge family and everyone commented on how sweet she was! Our photos are SO gorgeous, and show every emotion; excitement, nerves, joy and how much we love each other. Trust me, you want to book her. We wouldn’t want anyone else. Thanks Shayla!

Krystle Akin 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Serves Charleston, SC

I'm most known to produce warm and soulful images that feel timeless with capturing real emotion that is true to the world I see around me. I've spent over a decade perfecting my timeless and most noted use of vibrant color photographs. Photographing intimate weddings in the hills of Tuscany; to grand beach weddings overlooking the Riviera Maya beaches of Tulum, I'm honored to have photographed weddings of every proportion.

I'm so happy i hired Krystle as our wedding photographer. We got to meet beforehand when she was in California and took our engagement photos and it was like having a friend take our photos. She was an absolute delight to work with and helped put my husband (who hates taking photos) at ease. Our photos were beautiful and were even featured in Martha Stewart Weddings and Magnolia Rouge which was an lovely surprise. If in doubt, hire her! She is such a calming presence which helps on what can be a very stressful day. Wish we could do it all over again!
