Hello!! I am Camille! I am passionate about preserving every moment from your special day - particularly those intimate moments of togetherness amid the crazy! ❤️ I am an all-inclusive photographer and very easy going; more on the quiet side, but I can wrangle a crowd if I need to. 😉 If you like goofy comedies, folk and pop music, and loving people how Jesus does, we'll get along just perfectly! I prefer to capture everyone in sweet and candid looking moments rather than being traditionally posed but I do a bit of both! I would love to get to know you and your future spouse - just send me a message any time!

Based in the heart of Nashville and journeying with couples worldwide full-time since 2018, I specialize in crafting timeless, low-stress, editorial images and elevated, audio-centric cinematic wedding films. For the free-spirited and the adventurous, for the lovers of art and bold style, your dream wedding memories await. Everyone deserves to have their wedding captured with care, creativity, and kindness. I can't wait to create an amazing experience for you and your partner.

TLDR: she is talented, professional & kind very helpful as someone with limited mobility. Tessa & her team photographed & recorded my wedding last weekend, and they were a dream to work with. I am chronically ill & so I knew on my wedding day I could not be running around to different locations for photos, and Tessa was extremely mindful of that fact & made sure to work within the parameters of what was doable for me. I was worried my limited mobility would mean my photos would be a little boring, but she's already sent a handful of pictures over for a sneak peek & they are GORGEOUS. Tessa is a true professional but also someone who clearly loves what she does, which I think really shows in the quality of her work. Could not be more glad to have had her & her team document my special day! :)

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

We had the pleasure of working with MoonTide Media for our wedding photography/videography. Shannon and Ally were an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. Their communication throughout the planning process was fantastic - they consistently kept us updated on travel plans and made sure we were all on the same page regarding the photography timeline. Most importantly, the quality of their work is stunning. We recently received a preview of some of our photos and were brought to tears by the beautiful images capturing our special day. Shannon and Ally have a true talent for capturing emotional moments without ever getting in the way. They were the hardest working team at our venue, going above and beyond to get every possible shot we could have imagined. We felt so comfortable with them that they even grabbed some extra candids of our wedding party that we had asked for with no issues. If you're looking for amazing photographers/videographers who produce breathtaking images while also making you feel at ease and comfortable on your wedding day, look no further than MoonTide Media.

Kaity Campbell Weddings & Events LLC

  • Serves Dayton, VA for additional fees

With Kaity Campbell Events, you will have a truly luxurious customer experience from the moment you sign your contract all the way up to your event day, and even beyond. We believe that every wedding should be a reflection of your unique love story, and we are here to ensure that every detail is perfectly tailored to your desires. Our passion for creating unforgettable experiences, combined with our industry expertise, allows us to curate a seamless and stress-free wedding day that exceeds your expectations. Being able to create an event that is truly yours, and has all the elements you care about, is why I started doing what I do.

Kaity did a great job, especially considering all the uncertainty of bad weather (my ceremony was outdoors) we had to all deal with. She always had an upbeat and positive attitude the whole time, which I know can be very difficult to do around my family. She definitely would just roll with all the punches to keep us on track. I was anxious the entire day, but Kaity reassured me that she had everything under control and I knew I could trust her. She even went out of her way to get me and my husband little care packages on the day of, with inspiring notes. The only hiccups I actually noticed was with announcements and speeches, because the volume and echo was not great, so people didn't know when things were actually happening, so I wish we could've told the DJ sooner to fix the issue. We had also wanted to have our dinners boxed up, because my husband and I were both too anxious and excited to really eat, so our food ended up being thrown away, plus we didn't receive the top tier of our wedding cake to save for the tradition thing (but my guess is because they served it all to the guests). Unfortunately, at the end of the night, we were super rushed to get everything out of the building, because of the time and the pouring rain- I was running around barefoot in my dress while my husband was passed out in the car, and I was one of the few trying to get everything packed and cleaned up. However, Kaity and her husband really helped us out by collecting all the left items and holding onto them for us until the next day. She kept in contact, since at least a month beforehand, to make sure we had everything in order and sent her all the vendor contacts , so she could be included with all the day-of plans. She really did go above and beyond to make sure I had the best day possible, and I really appreciated that from her. I would definitely hire her again.

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.

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

Dwayne was 1st shooter at our wedding and he kept us calm and relaxed to enjoy our day while still managing to get shots we didn’t even know we needed! Detail shots, first reveal, preparation, grounds, ceremony, family, reception, and all the special little moments in between.

Amaka and her team took over like we wanted and literally covered everything. The best part was how they helped us save tons of money on our wedding. Don't be hesitant in booking. Book them with confidence and I promise you will not be disappointed. Everything about your wedding will scream luxury and will be well organized. The price you pay is well worth it Somehow they found a way to even get my husband involved in the planning process because Amaka made it a fun process. She also gave us a planning book to help keep track and our own personalized google sheet that literally had everything including our guest list and how everyone would be seated. Amaka was always available when needed and if she wasn't, she delegated someone else. My husband and I loved attending vendor visits with her and she would always offer to treat us to lunch/dinner whenever we had appts. They went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure the wedding was blissful. I recommended her to a friend who has a destination wedding next year and they are already in love. A planning company that knows what they're doing, very honest with you rather than telling you what you want to hear and extremely resourceful. We also got to save on decor because they provided rentals since we booked the full service planning and Amaka with giving us tips on how to save on decor. We wanted them to actually do the decor :-( but they couldn't at that time and was honest about it. However, I am excited about ariscreationz doing the decor for my friend's wedding.

I am a caffeine addict who never sleeps. I love a good thunderstorm and playing Candy Crush for the brain breaks. I adore all kinds of dogs, but I have a special love for German Shepherds. My all-time favorite thing is to sit by the fire with a glass of good cabernet or watch the ocean waves hit the beach. I love to garden and to build things (but I let my husband to finish all my projects LOL). I enjoy good food and will likely refer to a stand up comedy routine at least once in a conversation. I am also a football mom, lacrosse mom and basketball mom. Wife to a very understanding husband and emotional support person for my big puppies.

Our wedding day was nothing short of magical, and much of that was thanks to our incredible photographer, Silvia. From our first meeting, her calm demeanor and positive outlook put us at ease. Silvia has a unique ability to blend into the background, capturing candid moments that truly reflect the joy and love of the day. Her calm presence was a soothing force during the hustle and bustle, making us feel relaxed and natural in front of the camera. Every photo she took is a testament to her talent and passion for her work. Silvia didn’t just take pictures; she told our love story through her lens, and for that, we are forever grateful. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to capture our special day.

Hausfrau is an upscale catering and events company putting the JOY back into hosting and wedding planning. Let us take care of all the details. We love themes ~and FOOD~ not just German! We can develop the perfect menu, layout, decor, and more to create a unique experience for your guests at your price point. Our team takes the time to hear your ideas, envision your perfect event with you, implement our shared plan, and ensure everyone enjoys our hospitality from start to finish. Our focus on aesthetics means we plate and garnish food on white china platters and wood instead of just dropping off disposable aluminum pans for you to figure out!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Hausfrau Catering for my 80th birthday celebration, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience! As an Austrian-born immigrant, it was essential for me to reflect my heritage in the event, and Hausfrau delivered beyond my expectations. From the moment I contacted Kristin Sanders, I knew I was in good hands. This was my first experience hiring a caterer, and Kristin was nothing short of amazing. She assisted me in planning the menu and remained incredibly accommodating as my guest list grew from 35 to 65. Throughout the planning process, she was mindful of my budget, while ensuring that everything was just right. The staff arrived on time and set up beautifully, donning stunning Austrian Dirndl dresses that added a special touch to the event. The food was absolutely perfect! We had a delightful array of German and Austrian dishes, complemented by some American favorites. The hors d'oeuvres, pretzel bar, buffet with three main dishes, and dessert received rave reviews from my guests, who are still talking about the meal and the event! The website portal was user-friendly and reflected the professionalism I experienced throughout the planning process. Hausfrau Catering will be my go-to reference for any future occasions. Thank you, Kristin and the entire Hausfrau team, for making my birthday celebration truly unforgettable!

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Madison because she was an Alumni from same school, UCF, as me. We booked her to do an engagement shoot (an hour outside of Orlando) and our photos turned out absolutely amazing. From that one interaction with her, it really felt like we knew her our whole lives. She is super nice, personable, and made us feel very comfortable right away. She also had so much knowledge about the area, and any questions that we had regarding the shoot. She planned and timed everything out so that we could get photos at one location, and then sunset photos by the beach 30 min away. And then when we were looking for photographers for our wedding (in Philadelphia), it was a no-brainer that we wanted to book her again to capture our big day. She came halfway up the coast and played a large role in making our day perfect. We planned the photography from 1000 miles away, and she was really communicative and helpful about the picture planning, and also just wedding planning in general. We ran into a timing issue with how the day was going to work out before the ceremony, and she helped us navigate that, and she worked to keep us on track throughout the night for the different photos that we wanted. She knew what to do & what not to do in the Church. She also worked well alongside our videographer. Ultimately, we are very happy with our experience with Madison, and the wedding photos she took turned out absolutely amazing.

Hi! I'm Kim. I am quirky, creative, and perhaps a bit unusual. While I am local to the Richmond, VA area, I am happy to travel! I have a strong background in logistics and supply chain, an intense interest in quality over quantity when it comes to purchasing the flowers I use, and an even more intense desire to Get Creative.

We wanted to have a wildflower-themed, fun, and colorful wedding with the Shenandoah mountains as the backdrop, and Pandora's Posies was the PERFECT florist to execute our vision. I sent her many pictures from pinterest of what the look was I wanted, and we discussed over the phone what actual type of flowers would work for that. She was very accommodating and even tried to grow specific flower types that I wanted! Her price range was very reasonable, and overall, we were SO happy with the look of our flower arrangements for our wedding!

We had our wedding reception at a brewery and wanted some easy to eat sweet and salty snacks. These popcorn flavors were delicious, they sent us flavors to try before we decided. We chose 4 flavors and they shipped them right to our house. The popcorn buckets had our cute custom labels which they designed for us and looked PERFECT! We had tons of compliments on the popcorn. We ordered plenty and people were grabbing them to take home at the end of the night. A perfect snack after a few beers. Theu were very fast with the samples and the order too!
