Sharon Elisabeth Photography

  • Serves Columbia, VA

Hello! I’m Sharon and I own Sharon Elisabeth Photography. I feel so grateful every day that I get to capture the most heartfelt moments and feelings that occur during weddings as well as documenting the relationships between people who love each other so much – families, friends and couples! I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

Sharon and her second shooter, Hannah, are simply the best. Sharon's professionalism, creativity, customer service and commitment to detail were unmatched during the planning process and everything came to a beautiful crescendo on our wedding day in Charlotte, NC in June 2024. She understands family dynamics and approaches her work with love and respect. Her innate ability to capture light, emotion, movement and grace cannot be overstated. I wish there was a 10-star rating.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alex is a phenomenal photographer. We found him by luck online, and my husband and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. Planning the details of a wedding can get very stressful. Alex did various check ups throughout the months and weeks leading up to the wedding, whether that be a zoom call, phone call, or text. This helped us stay on track with planning. On top of that, his questionnaire was very thorough and detailed. He really got to know my husband and I, and with the questionnaire he was able to capture what we wanted. Our wedding day did not go exactly as planned. It was a bit chaotic, and we were a little behind on our timeline. Alex was able to adapt and be flexible, but made sure to keep us on schedule. He went above and beyond with his customer service, and if my husband and I were to pick one of our vendors we were happiest with, Alex would be it. His photos and videos were well received by all our family and we are grateful that we have those physical memories to cherish.

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you have spent even just a few minutes checking out McKenna's work, it is obvious how good she is at getting her subjects comfortable! Creating images that are playful and honest. Well crafted and timeless. Intimate and irresistibly fun. But what you may not be able to see through the limitations of your computer screen, is how she exudes positivity, enthusiasm, and carries a genuine curiosity. Does this sound like someone who you would want at your wedding? I hope so. I have had the pleasure of working along side her while capturing video and I'd happily have her at every wedding taking the photos! Hire her to tell your story.

I’m a wedding photographer drawn to quiet glances, soft light, and the kind of love that lingers long after the day is done. My work blends cinematic stillness with emotion—documenting each celebration with a poet’s eye and a romantic heart. I don’t just capture what happened—I preserve how it felt. Based in New York and traveling worldwide, I create timeless images that feel like memory and magic, carefully told and deeply felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Your wedding day is a whirlwind of family and friends, vows and true love, good food and of course lots of cake! With a wedding photographer, all the beautiful moments can be captured and remembered forever. Pop of Molly Photography focuses on candid photography encapsulating the bride and groom and wedding guests enjoying the moment and being their own beautiful selves. Focusing on candid photography doesn't mean I won't take the time to sit down with you and go over the "must have" shots, list of family members and wedding party, and ensure I have photos of all your Pinterest board "dream wedding" photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Going into our wedding, my husband and I were hesitant about hiring a photographer since we aren't big picture people. However, we're so glad we listened to the advice of our friends and family and chose Pop of Molly Photography & Design. Molly was incredibly professional and really listened to our preferences for more candid, natural shots. She was so unobtrusive during the day that we often forgot she was there, but the photos she captured perfectly reflect the joy and intimacy of our celebration. Molly struck the perfect balance of following our lead and also using her creative eye to freestyle moments we didn't even realize were happening. We're thrilled with the beautiful, authentic photographs that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come.

For me, photography all started with the outdoors. As someone who loves to bike, hike, kayak, and backpack, photos were a way to capture the vistas and memories I was creating. Photography snowballed into sports, journalism, concerts, products, events, portraits, finally landing on weddings. Weddings became what I loved most due to their fast pace nature, creative freedom, and the opportunity to document real, life-long memories. Every couple and every family has a unique, incredible story. It’s a blessing to be able to document these life-changing events that people can look back on forever.

When my husband and I began looking for photographers, we looked at many different photographers portfolios and Rob’s stuck out the most. The way he was able to capture couples weddings from start to finish in such a way that told the story was truly amazing. When we spoke with Rob and found out his pricing, my husband and I were a bit hesitant to spend so much on a wedding photographer, but I can say without a doubt that out of every vendor we booked for our wedding, Rob is the one who was worth every single penny. He truly was able to capture our wedding day in a way that brought us tears of joy. If we had to do our entire wedding over again he’d be the first on our list to book! From talking before the booking process to the photo reveal, it was such a smooth process and he made the whole thing feel magical. If you can, book Rob because he will absolutely do what you want and more!

People inspire me, YOU inspire me. I’d love to capture your story. I've grown to know this about myself when it comes to photography: my favorite style is a blend of documentary & journalism... the kind that takes you back and makes you feel a part of the moment when photo was actually captured. The type that TELLS A STORY, YOUR story. The kind that captures personality, messiness, and REAL expression. I'm obsessed with being able to do all of this through a lens and a camera. Beauty is in everyone, in everything, and everywhere.

Brandon, from the start, made it clear that his focus was to capture our big day the way we wanted to remember it. He worked hard to get to know the two of us as a couple and our style through the engagement shoot. When our wedding day arrived, he came inspired and prepared. Along with his assistant, Brandon made sure to get all of the best angles of the day and made sure to capture the emotion and ambiance as well. He knew we were game for some adventurous shots and he managed to create some truly magical moments that illustrated the romance and individuality of the evening. He worked flawlessly with our videographer and even outperformed our wedding coordinator in keeping us on track with all of the after-dinner events. We are SO infinitely grateful for his presence at our ceremony!! We can't recommend him enough.

My husband and I got married in September in Providence, RI. I knew I wanted a photographer that was bright and colorful because of the venue and vibe of the day. I was nervous I wasn’t going to be able to find someone and would need to settle because I planned our wedding in 4 months. The original photographer I reached out to was not available and gave me Maria’s information. I was excited that she had the availability on such short notice, but once we had our first call with her I knew we had made the right decision and the day was going to be a blast. Communication up to our wedding was precise and clear. When the day came, it felt like we had known Maria and Jackson our entire lives. It was like hanging out with some of our closest friends. They made sure we got all the shots that we wanted, but also still enjoyed every second of the day. We did do a first look so it helped with picture timing but what was considered our cocktail hour (the entire night was cocktail style) they followed us around and took candida and groups when necessary. It was perfect. Not once did we feel like we had taken too many pictures. We got married on a rooftop but they also made sure that we had shots in the city streets and a large variety of locations. When we got our sneak peaks I was truly speechless (and ugly crying). I was absolutely blown away by how PERFECTLY they had captured our day. You could feel the joy radiating from the photos and the colors and clarity was unbelievable. I am still speechless and in awe of how amazing our pictures came out. Our day was absolutely perfect but Maria and Jackson for sure made it memorable with the most breathtaking pictures. They truly tell a story and how fun the entire night was. I look at the photos constantly and I don’t foresee that stopping anytime soon. We get SO many compliments from people about how beautiful they are and everyone asks who the photographer was. I 100000% recommend MTD Photo. Hands down one of the best decisions we could’ve made for the day.

I am honored to preserve the legacy of love! I believe love is magical and deserves to be captured beautifully. I create images that are classic, romantic, and refined. I cherish tradition and aim to capture moments that you want to look back on for years to come!

Jennifer and Chris are phenomenal to work with. By the time we got to our wedding day, Jennifer had already put in so much work coordinating with our planner and putting a detailed schedule together to make sure we could capture important details and events throughout the day (e.g. our rings and florals, getting ready, our first look, family photos, the ceremony, golden hour, and the reception). She is incredibly organized, responsible, and responsive. The day of the wedding, throughout all of the aforementioned events, they made the whole experience fun and relaxed. At the same time, they worked with the utmost professionalism, and guided us and our family members to properly position and pose ourselves. Unsurprisingly, the photos came out so beautifully. We will treasure them for the rest of our lives.

We are absolutely obsessed with our wedding photos and videos! This team seriously brought their A-game and made our special day even more magical. From the start, they were super chill and easy to work with. On the big day, they were like ninjas, capturing every awesome moment without being in the way. They have such a knack for finding those perfect, candid shots that totally show the real us. Plus, the way they set up the posed photos. When we got our photos and the video, we couldn't stop smiling and laughing. They caught all the love, laughter, and even the crazy dance moves (hello, epic dance party!). The highlight reel was like a mini movie of the best day ever—we’ve already watched it a million times! The whole experience was just fun and stress-free, thanks to their good vibes and clear communication. They really listened to what we wanted and made sure we felt comfortable and relaxed. Thank you guys !

I'm a Northern Virginia based wedding photographer with a love for capturing your day in a way that feels most authentic to YOU. My experience with having my own COVID wedding has led me to appreciate all kinds of weddings, big and small. ◡̈ Virginia born and raised, I met my husband in middle school and we chose to be by each others' sides forever back in 2020! We are building a family and a life we love in Fredericksburg, VA, but are always ready to go. He's my right hand man and will probably tag along every so often!

Hope was my son's wedding photographer and she did portraits for my family. I was blown away by how beautiful they all turned out. But what I really loved was how thoughtful she was during both. She made sure that her and her wonderful husband/assistant were everywhere all at once...lol. Capturing ever special moment with lots of detail. She isn't just a talented photographer she has an understanding of what moments NEED to be captured that you may never know aboutuntil she send you the gallery! Her heart behind what she does is in every photo. I can't recommend her enough!
