Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She was sooo easy to work with. Her visions aligned with mine, she was efficient and so sweet. I truly trusted her with everything in me and she did not disappoint! She traveled across the country for us and was a 10/10 human being and professional photographer. You need her!!

I am a destination wedding & elopement photographer + planner based in New Mexico. I am originally from the small college town of Lexington, Kentucky, but before long my family moved to Toronto, Canada. Fast forward a handful of years, we moved to Nashville where I finished up elementary school and attended high school. I graduated from UTK in the spring of May 2020 with a BS in marketing and a collateral in entrepreneurship. After graduation I moved down to Florida to be with my partner who is stationed in the area and this past year we got moved to NM! I am an avid traveler & learner!

Audrey is the best. She went above and beyond for my wedding which seemed so natural that she must do it for all. We had 3 phone calls since we lived far away. Ahead of the wedding she put together detailed timelines for myself and all those involved. We made edits together and we explored different package options. I had a large wedding where my Husband and I were getting ready at different locations, a Catholic Church Ceremony and a different location for reception. Audrey managed with ease. She has the calmest demeanor and the best art came from the day. I received “Sneak Peaks” of almost 80 photos within 2 days which was a shock to me. Upon opening them, the photographs were so beautiful we couldn’t even believe these were from our day. I HIGHLY recommend Audrey for your wedding. Big or Small, Formal or Informal. She is the girl. BTW her second shooter, Lauren quite literally saved our wedding ceremony when I forgot the rings. Lauren tracked down the limo driver and delivered the rings discreetly to the alter!

Hi! My name is Savannah and I'm a wedding photographer located in Wisconsin (but traveling anywhere!). I believe photography is a way to return to moments otherwise passed. It's a way to freeze time, emotions, and memories. I started my business at a young age, and have loved every second of it! Through ups and downs, photography has always been my passion, and I truly believe I have the best job in the world. When I'm not taking photos or editing at my computer, you will find me hanging with my husband, binging a 90's sitcom, reading Harry Potter for the 100th time, playing with my two cats, or caring for my very many plants!

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

Jessica did an amazing job with our wedding photos! She made sure that we planned all of the portraits we would want ahead of time so that the day flowed nicely. We have only seen our preview photos so far but are blown away with how beautiful they look! Would recommend for any wedding!

I started my business in the beginning of 2019 while living in North Carolina. What I thought was just going to be a part time hobby, turned into something much much more.

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind! You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos 40 years from now and FEEL the emotions you felt that day. That's my promise to you!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren for our wedding, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! From the moment we first met her, it was clear that she wasn’t just passionate about photography—she genuinely cared about capturing the essence of our day in the most beautiful, authentic way possible. Lauren has an extraordinary eye for detail. She doesn’t just take pictures; she captures moments—the spontaneous smiles, the glances exchanged, the raw emotions. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—something neither of us was used to. She took the time to understand our style and personalities, and tailored her approach to fit that perfectly. On the day of the wedding, her calm and positive energy was a grounding presence amid all the excitement. Lauren made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and beyond. She’s a true artist, and her work will be cherished by us for years to come. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is not only professional but will go above and beyond to capture your most important moments, look no further than Lauren. She exceeded every expectation we had, and we are forever grateful! Thank you, Lauren, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!

Adam Kent Photography

I want the photos of my wedding that I don’t have –; that capture the moments of affection between our family members; that remind us of the little details and big feelings of that day. I want the photos of my father-in-law walking my wife down the aisle, six months before he unexpectedly passed away. Those photos don’t exist. Instead, I have a handful of blurry, poorly edited images, the half-hearted efforts of an amateur photographer who didn’t yet know what he was doing with a camera. At that time I didn’t know the value of a professional wedding photographer, so I didn’t make the investment and it’s one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made.

Having worked with Adam for the past 7 years, it is safe to say he has made the top of my vendor list for photography. Aside from offering classic, iconic and true to life wedding photography, he is simply a delight to work with. As a planner, there are two hallmarks of a great photographer (in addition, of course, to quality work) -- people skills and timing. Adam has the market cornered on both. Aside from partnering with me on crafting a quality timeline so that every shot it covered, perhaps my favorite part of working with Adam is hearing every aunt and mother-of-the-bride try to adopt him. But it doesn't stop there. Be it groomsmen, bridesmaids, or that one tricky family member, everyone drops their guard and falls in love with him before the day is done. The result is authentic and honest wedding photos that freeze those special moments in time. I don't give vendor recommendations lightly, but Adam Kent is first on my list any day of the week.

She’s so easy to work with and makes the whole process a breeze. She comes with her own ideas but also gives you the opportunity to share your own on what kind of pictures you want. I highly recommend!

Seriously, so kind, accommodating for our guests, social, friendly and smart (we had a few tipsy guests getting water shots without knowing lol!) If you're contemplating who to book for any event really, look no further because they are amazing, start to finish!

Hey there! When I first started my photography and videography journey, I never thought I would offer wedding services. I had an opportunity to video my first wedding a year ago and fell in love. I have always been a fan of cinematography and music videos, so to get to do my own version of that is a dream come true.

Every person has their own beauty and truth. I see it, understand it, then reveal it through my portraits. I search for the play of light and shadow to carve the image and tell the story of the day... your day... Your story.

We can not speak well enough about Hash from SeaInk. Our wedding photos still get me teary eyed whenever we look at them because of how beautifully our day was documented! He was able to capture the subtle moments that we probably would have not remembered but now that we have the photos, they are forever engrained in our minds. He was so easy to work with -- had a clear communication style and gave us direction when we needed it. He has more of a laid back approach which suited us not only on the day of the wedding but for all correspondence. He was never pushy, always made us feel comfortable. I chose SeaInk because of the emotive imagery, the clean editing style (things actually look how they are supposed to in terms of the colors) and our comfort around Hash as a photographer. Would 1000% choose SeaInk over and over again as our photographer.

Megan was the best wedding photographer I could ever imagine! From moment one she was very professional, passionate and personable!

Caleb and Brittany are such a pleasure to work with! My husband and I aren’t used to being in front of a camera, but they make it so effortless by telling us exactly what to do in order to get the perfect photo. They themselves are just such a fun and beautiful couple and made us feel so comfortable during the photo shoots. It really felt like you were just hanging out with friends and there just happened to be a camera there to capture all of the special moments! It’s amazing to see how these two can just look at their surroundings on the spot and immediately come up with a vision and instruct you on how to make that vision come to life. They compliment each other so well and really work as a team during these shoots. Caleb and Brittany made us feel so confident and were hyping us up the entire time - what more could you want from a photo shoot?! We were completely in awe when they sent us the final results from our shoot! Again, we aren’t the most comfortable in front of a camera, but these pictures made it look so natural, as if we pose candidly for a living! I would recommend Caleb and Brittany to anyone, and we can’t wait to shoot with them again in the future!

Hi, I'm Liz! I'm based in Lynchburg, VA. I moved here from Los Angeles where I studied Fashion Design and Merchandising. Photography has been a huge passion of mine since I was in middle school but one class in college that really sparked my interest again. When the Pandemic hit, I was 6 months pregnant and starting to realize that I didn't enjoy my job anymore. I was so tired of working 50-60 hours a week and realized the most important thing to me was to be there to raise my child. So, that was that and here I am.

Working with Rustic Rose Photography was the best experience! She completed both engagement and wedding pictures for us. I am not someone who loves to be in front of a camera, but Liz uses really natural prompts to make you feel like yourself and feel good. At my wedding, she was really supportive and even checked in with me to see if I needed water or food. She’s always prompt and fun to work with. Hiring her was one of the best decisions I made when wedding planning. I can’t wait to scheduled more sessions with her in the future because she has a way of capturing the warmth of a moment in such a special way.

I am a 25 year-old newly wed who is passionate about seeking the beauty unveiled in authentic, candid moments. My inspiration comes from wanting to capture the memories you will never forget in a way that reminds you why you will never forget them.

Jordan was an absolute pleasure with work with. I was the day of coordinator for a wedding she was photographing. From start to finish she made sure the brides needs, and mine, were met. Right off the bat, she introduced herself and got to work. She flowed so effortlessly into the day, it was like she was made to be part of the wedding day team. It was such a relief, knowing she didn’t need any direction from me. We communicated throughout the night and no matter the schedule change, she was ready with her camera to capture every special moment. I will be recommending her to all my brides. Jordan is so well seasoned in the photographer field that she made sure that every moment she captured, she only had to capture once. This made sure pictures didn’t take to much time out of the day so everyone including the bride and groom enjoyed their day. She made sure to incorporate every aspect of the wedding within her work as well, no matter how small. I would recommend to her anyone needing photos, no matter the event, due to the fact of how effortless she made everything seem.

We are both born and raised in the Greater Jackson MS area and serve clients within Mississippi and beyond. Together we've built a beautiful life with 4 kids. Once a nurse, I now devote myself to full-time wedding photography, a decision I've never regretted. I adore that my clients are more than just clients, they truly become treasured friends. My photography style is a blend of authenticity and vibrancy, ignited by chasing sunsets and capturing that magical golden light.

Erica was a joy to work with and made our special day so fun and enjoyable. She helped with the little things and was our biggest cheerleader. Working with her truly made our day perfect and I couldn’t imagine anyone better. Her editing, attention to detail, and skills are unmatched.

Olivia Smartt Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,900
  • Serves Cornelius, NC for additional fees

Want a trusted, unobtrusive, thoughtful pro photographer friend on your wedding day? Someone to capture the way the wedding FEELS as well as it looks. A little direction during portrait time, a little leadership during family portraits, and near invisibility all other times? I think you’re onto something. I’m in. What's exciting? What’s important? What's confusing? Let’s sit down for a discovery meeting and I’ll ask, listen, lay out options, and share suggestions. I want to learn about you. I'm on your team 100% before, during, and after your wedding. Bonus: I've shot 400+ practice weddings before yours and I absolutely LOVE what I do!

We found Olivia to be a wonderful, skilled photographer! Her eye for composition is creative, yet she demonstrated the connectiveness of us as a couple. The one thing that stands out is how Olivia totally put us at ease by using innovative ways to relax us as we were posing. She had us, as we were holding a position close to each other, to tell each other 3 things we love and appreciate about each other. This of course brought smiles and was totally relaxing and sincere. She made us so relaxed and comfortable . As a result , the photos look completely natural. We actually became engaged the afternoon, immediately after these photos were taken. She made the moment so relaxing and magical. It was serendipity. I recommend her highly, and will be spreading the word amongst my friends and contacts. We will treasure these photos forever.

Reid Videography

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Cornelius, NC for additional fees

Our passion for videography started at a young age for both of us. We weren't concerned about the type of cameras our families owned or the quality of those cherished home videos. What mattered to both of us was how it felt to capture memories through film. We are blessed to be able to now pursue our passion together as husband and wife. Cameras and video resolution have definitely upgraded from those old tape recorders, but our passion is still the same. ​

There aren't enough gold stars for this GOLD couple and their phenomenal videography business! Ryan Reid is one of the kindest, friendliest souls you will ever meet, which makes him so fun and easy to work with on your wedding day. He worked incredibly well with our photographers and was so good at reading the scene and knowing when/how to capture the BEST content right alongside them. He was our ultimate hype man throughout the whole wedding day, too! Always smiling, always cheering us on and making us smile big for the camera. We can't tell you how many family members and wedding guests complimented us on our videographer. My brother is professional video producer with a tenure producing video for the Atlanta Braves, and he RAVED about Ryan's talent and professionalism. We can't say enough good things about him and his wife, Sharol! If you're on the fence about hiring a wedding videographer, you will NOT regret it if you pick Reid Videography!!!

Christine is amazing! I was looking for a photographer for my wedding who’s work had more contrast than a lot of the light and airy photos I’ve seen lately and Christine definitely delivered! She’s super sweet and easy to work with (even doing our engagement pictures when she was super pregnant)! She did such a great job of scouting locations to take photos for our downtown San Diego wedding and we love that we have pictures in different spots around our venue. She also spent time talking through different dynamics with families for wedding pictures so we could get all the combos we needed without awkwardness of certain family members not getting along. I cannot recommend working with Christine enough! Hire her- you won’t regret it!!

There are never too many questions or emails, because everything I provide for you should be exactly as you envision, but better.
