Wife to my best friend of 12 years strong! I love drinking all the coffee, and LOVE!

My goal is to capture and display that love and happiness in it's most raw and authentic form!

We LOVED having Jordan photograph our wedding! She was professional, communicative, and flexible when family didn't show up on time for family pics before the ceremony as planned. But above all the pictures are so beautiful! As two slightly awkward, kind of silly people, she made us feel comfortable during our couple's shoot and I think she really captured our personalities and relationship perfectly. I am so glad we went with her for our wedding!

We hired Lesleann to photograph our engagement session and wedding day, and both experiences were smooth and absolutely amazing! We loved her professionalism and genuine spirit from our first meeting and knew instantly that we wanted her to be our photographer. She is flexible, patient, super talented, and has the most warm, upbeat and positive personality! She makes you so happy and comfortable during a shoot that you almost forget you’re being photographed! She is a quick observer, and scouted several creative shot possibilities at our engagement and wedding locations to capture. Also, she worked very well with all our wedding vendors, making for a calm and seamless wedding day. We are in awe and extremely pleased with the photos that were captured – they are simply gorgeous and exceeded our expectations.

Hello beautiful couples! Looking for a photographer? I’m your girl! ✨ I specialize in capturing your day in a way that’s unique to you and your love story.

Your day goes by SO fast, so it’s great to have someone who’s ready to be there for you and make sure you don’t miss a beat when you look back on your day. PS - I also do video!

I was the most nervous about choosing our photographer/videographer out of everything we chose in our wedding but I do not regret choosing Hailey Hughes Photography at all. Hailey took the time to set up a call with my husband and me prior to booking with them to talk through all of our expectations and our wedding photography/videography needs. After speaking to her, I had no doubt in my mind she would do a great job and was the perfect photographer/videographer for our wedding. They are an awesome, sweet couple who do above and beyond amazing work. They captured every special moment through pictures and video. We couldn’t be happier with the results.

It is the biggest honor to photograph your wedding. Your wedding is a day you hope to remember for the rest of your life and I don’t take my role as a wedding photographer lightly. Whether you’re a newly engaged couple looking for a photographer for your wedding or just an engagement session I have something for you! The best moments on your wedding day are the unexpected, intimate moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
I will post and gush about Katey as a photographer for forever. She has been a WONDERFUL woman to work with. When I first posted looking for a photographer - instead of pitching me on the phone, we met on a video call - talked about me, my wedding vision, and I never felt any pressure from her. ( I knew on the call I wanted her but what is life without a little suspense) Since then she has been a dream. She is SO communicative, she has been flexible, and it was so comfortable to be photographed by her. Besides having the actual BEST experience - both in how she worked to make it comfortable for everyone (me and my husband) and then (me and all of our families on the day of). she is also a KILLER photographer - I will always always always refer back to her incredible skill with how she photographed my day. She truly has her own vision for capturing all of (and ofcourse the best) moments in a wedding. I cannot say enough nice things about Katey. ** funnily enough my sister in law got married about two weeks before me and ended up liking Katey's pictures in our wedding better than her own. So if you read nothing but my last sentence - you will truly love working with Katey - your pictures will turn out incredible and it will be such a great and natural experience.

  • Serves Dorchester, SC for additional fees

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.

Hey! I'm Nina. I'm a pretty energetic and charismatic person that loves love and enjoys life. Documenting through photo is my favorite thing on this planet. I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras, flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nina was a pleasure to work with. We hired her to photograph our wedding in upstate NY and the whole experience was such a pleasure. We are both pretty shy and uncomfortable in front of a camera, and our wedding was as casual as they come, and Nina fit right into that. I feel like I found a best kept photographer secret and am so grateful we chose her!

Meghan Ann Imagery LLC was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, her communication was very clear, and on a personal level she is incredibly kind and sweet to deal with. We weren't initially planning to have a photographer since this was our very small "legal" wedding and we were planning a larger destination wedding, but we're so glad we decided to book Meghan last minute. On Mother's Day, she gladly accepted the job and captured every special moment beautifully. The quality of her work was tremendous, exceeding our expectations with how fast she turned around our photos, and we now have precious memories to cherish forever. We are absolutely thrilled with the photos and cannot recommend Meghan Ann Imagery LLC highly enough.

Featured on Today show and Wedding Day Magazine. I believe everyone deserves to have life's biggest moments captured on camera. But photos turn into heirlooms when the moments are documented in a way that feels absolutely authentically you. No forced emotions, no fake smiles, and certainly no awkward prom-pic poses. Whether you’re dressed to the nines on the day of your wedding or, the dirty white dress that spent more time on the dance floor than the altar let’s capture the authentic you and have a damn good time doing it.

It’s hard to put into words how incredible Mary is. From the moment we booked her, we knew we had made the right choice. Mary meticulously crafted mood boards, timelines and provided invaluable advice from the engagement shoot to the wedding. She has a warm and vibrant spirit that makes you feel comfortable and excited. We found many times throughout the wedding day we felt most calm with Mary while taking pictures. You won’t find another photographer like her, willing to go the extra mile to deliver a vision. We cannot thank Mary enough for our beautiful photos. They are mementos of a perfect day we will cherish forever.

Hi, I'm Christine! I specialize in capturing & preserving love stories for the romantic and madly in love couple; whether you’re engaged, getting married, celebrating your anniversary, or just because - I’m here for it! I want to ensure you have an unforgettable experience that allows you to truly focus on your relationship and the love you feel for each other. When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my hubby and fur-babies. I absolutely love to travel and explore new places, so if you want to take me to another state, or abroad, I’m totally game!

We booked Christine with Barefoot Royalty for our wedding after meeting her at a bridal expo in Statesboro, GA. The Queen of Hearts package was the one that best suited our needs, which included an engagement session as well. My husband and I decided that we would like to have our session at the river on his dad’s property and Christine was on board and filled with excitement from the start! Little did she know our session would involve a dog, canoe, boat, champagne, and a very awkward couple. With all of these props, obstacles, and survival taking pictures from a moving riverboat in the Ogeechee, Christine got us through our engagement session. We were instantly blown away after our pictures arrived within the timeframe given! Our wedding day quickly arrived and was exciting, fun, and busy right from the start. Christine had a photography schedule for us to follow and worked as hard as possible to keep all of us on track (which was a VERY challenging task in itself). After the ceremony, Christine recommended “golden hour” pictures while our guests enjoyed a cocktail hour. As much as I was excited to start visiting and celebrating with our guests, I am so happy she encouraged us to take the time because the pictures are PERFECT! The week of the wedding, we decided to book an extra hour with Christine to be able to capture more of our reception. Honestly, aside from booking Barefoot Royalty in the first place, this may have been our best decision yet! She and her second shooter stayed until 9 PM and captured so many fun reception pictures that we would not have had otherwise! Christine stayed in touch as the weeks passed while we waited for our full gallery to arrive… and boy were they worth the wait!!! Being able to relive our wedding day through the pictures has been so much fun. We are blown away by the talent she has, attention to detail, and how everything turned out. We would highly recommend Barefoot Royalty Photography for your engagement/wedding photos and would book with Christine every time if we had to do it over again!! Hands down the BEST experience and we were most definitely given the ROYALTY treatment! Thanks for everything! - Shelby and Ryan

Mario Oliveto Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Dorchester, SC for additional fees

Mario Oliveto Photography is genuine and heavily focused on real emotions, always believing that everyone has a story. Our photography makes you feel as if you were connected with those in front of the camera. Wedding photography is capturing real, raw, emotions, in the most beautiful fine art style.

We had nothing but positive experiences with Mario from engagement shoot to the big day! We used Mario for our engagement shoot in Philly about a year before our wedding. We were really unsure of locations and he had great suggestions that he ran by us and offered ideas ahead of time and during the shoot, he helped adjust as we looked at the lighting and space. We both expressed how unsure we were about taking professional pictures since this was a first for us and were not comfortable with a lot of the trendy shots and he really worked with us to make all the poses feel natural to us while still looking phenomenal. We decided to go with his associates for the big day based on our budget and they did not let down. Mario specifically picked two photographers who were familiar with our venue and had great suggestions for where to get the best shots. Our two associates, Rachel & Alyssa, were helpful, kind, fun, professional and absolute champs to get all the best pictures on our day. We had 100 degree temps and they worked so hard to make sure we were comfortable the entire time while not sacrificing the pictures we had planned for. They checked in with us often and were not afraid to tell our family that the group pictures were done so that we could actually enjoy cocktail hour (after confirming with us that is was what we wanted). They also took adorable couples pictures of our guests during lulls in the dinner service that my family and friends were beyond excited for. Mario and his associates are an absolute recommendation in my book and I can not say enough nice things about working with them!

Hi, I’m Taylor, the proud owner of Miles and Moments Photography! Born and raised in SE Michigan, I’ve always had a passion for capturing life’s most special moments. Whether it’s the vibrant colors of a sunset or the joy in someone’s smile, I strive to create timeless memories through my lens. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me exploring new places.

Taylor did our family photos and they turned out perfect! My kids and husband can be stubborn and do not like "fake" forced moments but Taylor's personality helped them feel at ease and everyone truly had a great time during our session. Kids were actually laughing and smiling, not just for the camera. Would recommend Taylor to anyone looking for a photographer.

I’m originally from New York, and shortly after moving down south I found myself falling in love with a country boy and made the New River Valley, VA my home. I have had a passion for photography since I was a child, and when I finally decided to take the leap into my own photography journey I was very lucky to have the support of family, friends and other professionals. I’ve had the opportunity to have some amazing mentors along the way and have soaked up everything they took the time to teach me.

I had an amazing experience with Kira Trinh Photography! Working with Kira felt effortless. She was very professional yet kept the atmosphere fun and light throughout the session. We started the session by listening to music while sharing ideas. I was truly impressed with her preparation. Kira came with creative poses and concepts, yet she was always receptive to my vision. She helped bring all my visions to reality, I couldn't ask for better! The results were stunning! Kira made me feel comfortable and confident during the photoshoot, which really showed in the results. I can tell she paid attention to each little detail. She perfectly captured my natural beauty, creating photos that feel authentic and unedited. I highly recommend Kira Trinh Photography for any occasion. She has already done my graduation photos along with various shoots, and I haven't been disappointed once. I'm already thinking of what we can do for our next shoot. I can't wait for our next session! Thank you for the amazing memories!

Hey, how cool of you to end up here. I promise not to bore you with a bunch of flowery language or over-the-top promises. I love to document real moments. Weddings, elopements, couples' shenanigans - you name it, I am here for it. I do this with a healthy dose of humor, a dash of sarcasm and a whole lot of heart. So if you're looking for someone to capture your day in all its imperfect glory, say something, let's make it happen.

Loy at Sweet Lime takes some great photos. He was a joy to work with and helped set the room up by providing a suggestion that none of the restaurant staff, or us, had thought of which ended up working swimmingly. The day of the wedding, he was present but also not too if that makes sense. He was kind enough to send us a couple preview shots while we impatiently/patiently waited. The photos are well worth the wait. I would be happy to recommend Sweet Lime Photography. You will not be disappointed in his service.

My goal is to create a relaxed, intimate environment where you and your loved ones can be completely yourselves. Your wedding is a one-of-a-kind celebration of love, filled with joy, emotion, and connection. It’s my honor to document every happy, romantic, emotional, and even quirky moment that makes your love story uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Angelica captured our special day absolutely perfectly. We had hired her for our wedding that was supposed to happen in 2020 but had to be rescheduled for 3 years later due to the pandemic and through that entire time she stuck with us! She was communicative and responsive, and her shots were absolutely gorgeous. She managed to capture every single important moment of our celebration and the way she guides and corrals everyone into taking pictures that look good is nothing short of a miracle (trust me, I feel so awkward in front of the camera and I look incredible in all of my wedding shots.) If you need a photographer for your wedding, Angelica is 100% your girl.
