Awarded Best of Zola
Jennifer was so great! She was super easy going, and made sure we covered all the things we wanted to capture, and then created a timeline for us to share with our other vendors to make sure we stayed on schedule on our wedding day! The package we picked came with a second shooter and a free engagement shoot, and we were so grateful for that, as it gave us a chance to get comfortable with having our photos taken and try out some fun poses. My husband and I are not picture takers, but she made us forget she was there by making the session fun, and all about us and our love story. We received so many beautiful images and enjoy looking back on them with our friends and family! Can't recommend Jennifer enough!

First off just like that, the day got a whole lot better now that you are here! But let’s get one thing straight: if you are here, I want you to feel free to be YOU! Being true to who you are makes this process a hell of a lot easier! This is a judgment-free free safe space, and I want you to be as comfortable as humanly possible! Now that’s out the way, I'm Jovan Kiah, specializing in wedding and portrait photography located somewhere in the cornfields of Indiana. But always prepared for a photography adventure, I’m already packed with a suitcase of snacks, my passport, & playlist that spans from Disney musicals to '90s R&B hits.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always so happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry or stress about photos. Day of the wedding she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She did a fantastic job of even catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.

Mischief and Laughs Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Columbia, SC for additional fees

Your wedding should be a stress-free and joyous celebration! And to capture all the love and life and happiness, your photographer should be focused on the emotions of the day, not only the pretty centerpieces. At Mischief and Laughs Photography, we believe that the important things aren’t the things at the wedding, but the people – your families, your friends, and most importantly the person you are about to marry. We carry this love for love into every wedding we photograph.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Mischief and Laughs Photography was wonderful. Cara was very responsive and easy to work with, leading up to and on the day of the wedding. She was extremely professional and went above and beyond in working with us. The ceremony and bridal party pictures are absolutely beautiful, but I think where the photos really shine are the wonderful little moments of the day that she captured. Neither my husband nor I are big on staged photos so we wanted a photographer who would get those in-the-moment shots. I am so happy with all of the pictures from the after-dinner cigars on the outside patio and of our friends and family on the dance floor. If you want someone who can truly capture the celebration, you need to book Mischief and Laughs for your wedding.

I’m your visual storyteller, here to weave the narrative of your love into every frame. Think of me as your co-pilot for navigating the whirlwind of your wedding day - from crafting a seamless timeline to embracing the unexpected, I’ll be there to assist you & capture every smile, tear, & epic dance move along the way. All you have to do is soak in the magic of your special day, & I’ll make sure it’s beautifully documented forever! My style leans towards documentary/photojournalism, with a heavy focus on capturing moments as they naturally unfold, but I occasionally step in to help set the scene for those moments that matter most.

Hiring Aireal was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! From the very first consultation, she made my wife and I feel so confident and excited about our big day. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and it really showed in the photos—each one perfectly captured the essence of our relationship. On the wedding day, Aireal was such a calming presence. She was organized, professional, and had a way of making everyone feel at ease, even in the midst of all the chaos. She caught every detail and emotion without us ever feeling like we were constantly posing for pictures. Our photos are beyond beautiful. She captured so many moments we’ll treasure forever, and the quality is exceptional. We even ordered prints through her gallery and they came out flawless. It’s obvious that Aireal is passionate about her work, and she truly goes above and beyond for her clients. If you’re searching for an LGBTQIA friendly wedding photographer who will capture your day with authenticity, creativity, and a personal touch, look no further. Aireal is amazing, and we couldn’t be happier with our wedding photography experience!

We have been friends since 2006, married since 2008, and capturing memories through photography since 2010. The years of experience in all three make us uniquely qualified to tell your budding love story. If the years have taught us anything, its that fulfilling, long-lasting marriages have a foundation of friendship, and are built with joy - and perhaps quite a few carbs! We strive to help you feel confident during your big day, and not awkward or stressed - so you can look back on joyful memories that tell your love story.

We had the most amazing experience with Him & Her Photography! Josh and Alisha did both our engagement and wedding photography and went above and beyond from the very beginning. They were so fun to work with and on the wedding day, provided great support for timeline and guidance. They even had our sneak peek pictures ready DURING our reception for guests to view— which both we & the guests were in awe of. I can’t recommend them enough!

I believe in true love and the beauty of candid laughter. I fell in love with photography when I realized I could capture the existing beauty in every person I had the blessing to photograph. There's more to it than clicking a button -- you need an eye for artistry, moments, and equilibrium. I freakin' love people and I love stories, so this is just the best job for me! True to color but warm, a vibrant richness, and drawing out natural beauty is how I would describe my style. I want you to feel like I'm a friendly face coming along on an adventure with you, not paparazzi getting in your way.

Soon after Juan and Emily got married in 2018 Juan began his photography career as a light technician in LA. Juan studied journalism for his undergrad, and this is when he was gifted his first camera and his interest in photography was sparked. Emily's childhood dream was to be a photographer, and after working for years as an ICU nurse she is able to do just that alongside Juan. We are energized by the creativity that photography brings, and the light and joy we experience from meeting couples.

Juan and his wife Emily took the most BEAUTIFUL photos of my fiancé and I in Asheville, NC. His style is classic with a modern twist. He captures movement shots that look like we were sprinting off to a romantic getaway. His wife helped capture images as well and provided some great input on several shots.

I believe your photos should have a timeless feel, full of your real emotions. I’m here to guide you every step of the way for a stress free experience. All the way from timeline planning to guiding you behind the camera, I’m here for you. 🌿

Awarded Best of Zola
What initially drew us to reaching out to Laren to be our photographer for an intimate, 14 person wedding ceremony was obviously her stunning, timeless and romantic photographs. But what somehow stood out even more than the beautiful photographs she delivered to us (and with a relatively short turnaround!) was what an absolute pleasure it was to work with her, from communicating to figure out if it was a good fit initially, to planning a wedding day adventure session, to ensuring everyone at the ceremony got the photos they wanted. Throughout the initial coordination and planning process, she was very helpful with providing feedback on our ideas and crafting it into a clear plan for the day. She was flexible in allowing us to split coverage between an early morning adventure session in the mountains and time later at the venue for the formal wedding ceremony. She provided recommendations for other vendors and drafted timelines to help us organize the activities for the day. Leading up to the day, she provided us with regular updates about the weather, proactively providing alternate options if it did not cooperate. For the adventure session, it ended up being a frigid and windy morning, which could have been a miserable experience but because of her warmth, energy and positivity ended up being really fun despite us being freezing! She was always offering alternate ideas to make sure we had opportunities to warm up and even spent a good amount of time at the beginning helping us learn how to tie a bowtie. Since it was so cold and windy in the morning that we cut our hike short, she offered to come earlier in the evening (which was so kind) and shows her commitment to having the whole day really be about her clients, even if the coverage is split into two sessions! Working with her for the ceremony felt so natural and it really showed in the heartfelt, genuine and joyful photos that she took. We highly recommend Laren -- her skills would shine for capturing any event!

Allison is AMAZING! She did the photography for my sister’s wedding last year and I knew I just had to have her as my wedding photographer this year. She is very kind, communicates through the entire process to get your vision, very professional, and just an amazing person in general. She also has a sneak peek with in 48 hours of your big day. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

Wedding photographs should honor your relationship and highlight your unique connection. More than simple validation, they are a declaration that love knows no boundaries. So, it’s important to find a photographer who understands the full scope of your story, someone who sees both the broader significance and its personal meaning. And someone who captures it all through unforgettable photographs. When it comes to photography, it takes a non-traditional perspective to look beyond the obvious and capture the hidden bits of who you two really are.

Raven documented my wedding day with such care and clarity. In her pictures, I see the settings, people, and details, when it all happened. Lush greenery and orange leaves where my partner and I said our vows. My aunt smiling as she met my baby daughter. Hugs with guests after our ceremony. The flowers on my alternative style dress. Amazingly, she got many of these shots when the people in the photos did not realize it. They're not only a killer record of what happened that day. Her pictures are lovely and naturalistic with vibrant colors. Killer wedding day coverage is not the only thing you get with Raven. She is great to work with throughout the process, always warm, well-organized and punctual.

Ellen is amazing! She was so helpful by suggesting poses and directing us and our wedding party to get natural looking photos. She was very communicative before and during the wedding. She provided us “sneak peaks” of our photos a few days after the wedding and we are in love with them! Can’t wait to see the rest soon!

"I look at you and see the rest of my life in front of me." I'm a firm believer in giving my couples the absolute best value I can give them for their weddings. My package deals are some of the most popular options for clients I've had in the past at the absolute best price you'll find them at.

Working with Brynn was such a pleasure, she was very responsive to all our messages and so cooperative with rescheduling when the weather fouled our shoot. She's a very relaxing personality behind the camera, and really helped bring out the best in my fiance and I. We're so in love with our engagement photos, and can't wait to see what she does with the wedding.
