Fancy This Photography 

5.0

Durham, NC
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500

At Fancy This Photography, my goal is to capture the essence of who you are on the most important day of your life. When I got married, my first concern with hiring a photographer is that they understood the fun and unique side of who I was, and could capture that. I want the same thing for you. My passion is working with couples who want something a bit out of the ordinary for their wedding. The couple that’s real, the one who’s willing to be exactly who they are. The one who puts their relationships as top priority, and who want the people who are most special to them in the world to witness the joy of their wedding.

Fancy This Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Amanda Law and her team were incredibly professional, individualized, and reliable in their communication style. The quality of their work was truly stunning - they captured the essence of our special day perfectly. The two photographers felt like friends we would have invited to the wedding anyway, and they were so fun to work with. They developed a great timeline for photography to ensure all of the photos we wanted were captured. Highly recommend Amanda Law and the whole Fancy This Photography group - we hope they like us because we are hiring them for all of our life events!

Andy and I absolutely loved working with Melissa! I first found The Photobrief by searching on instagram & immediately knew I wanted Melissa to capture our wedding day. Melissa was truly a dream to work with. Always responsive to emails and questions. Super fun, friendly and so chill during our backyard engagement shoot & on the wedding day. Couldn't love her more! Our 2 dogs joined us during the engagement shoot and we had an absolute blast! On my wedding day, I felt so calm & truly trusted Melissa & her shooting partner to take the reins and capture all of the perfect moments. She passed out cold beers to Andy & I, made us laugh, and even bustled my dress <3 Melissa- I am so grateful to have worked with you and cannot thank you enough. You are so talented and I will cherish my wedding photos forever!

I've always loved photography. The ability to freeze those special moments in time to cherish forever is such a strong passion of mine. I love being behind a camera. Whether it's capturing my husband and kids reading a book together or the first time a groom sees his bride. Every photo has it's own story to tell. I live in Raleigh, NC but love to travel, anywhere and everywhere! I can't wait to hear from you and hope to become a part of that special moment in your life!

Kelly is a joy to work with. She has a way of connecting with her couples to have them look natural and relaxed. Each time she shoots a wedding at our venue she captures different photos of our property. She works hard to get every picture possible and all those special moments!

The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Hey There! I’m Hannah - an Intimate Wedding Photographer originally from the coast of Virginia but stumbled my way to the North Georgia Mountains which I now proudly call home! I love finding new adventures while exploring new places! I started my Photography journey capturing families but soon realized that my heart was completely drawn to capturing love & the bond that two people share! I describe my photography style as more Photojournalistic while being heavily focused on capturing more intimate/Romantic & candid shots!

Love Knot Photography

  • Serves Durham, NC

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac came recommended from a friend who did their engagement and wedding photos with him. We were also fortunate to have done our proposal, engagement and wedding photos with Isaac! He is so professional and comfortable to be around. My husband and I dont usually like to take photos, because we are self conscious, but Isaac took care of us. I am so grateful we came across LoveKnot and will always highly recommend them for anyone's special occasion.

I began this journey several years ago inspired by all the little moments going on around me. Photography has become one way I can express myself creatively while freezing a moment in time. I'm especially drawn to documentary & lifestyle photography as I love how natural the emotions are in the photos. There is a story to be told & I look forward to helping capture it on film.

Awarded Best of Zola
I really can’t say enough about how truly amazing Brandi is. She was with me from the start of my planning process to the end providing me with so much support and guidance. She was more than just a photographer. She is truly one of kind. From helping me coordinate a timeline, giving vendor suggestions, oh and not to mention helping me throw together a whole wedding in 72hours due to the Tennessee flooding. She is reliable and such a joy to work with. She made me feel so special. I just received our full album and let me tell you I am blown away. The quality of the photos are outstanding and I received so many!!! I am amazed at her attention to detail and ability to capture every special moment. I cannot recommend Brandi enough! She was such a blessing to work with and all around a wonderful photographer.

Our work involves a lot of interaction between you and your partner: the way you smile, hug, laugh and goof off together. We use natural light to create artistically genuine moments. Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time. Our ultimate goal is to be a companion with you throughout your wedding planning process as a friend, not a vendor. We're not someone who simply ‘gets the job done’— We're with you every single step of the way, from the first time we talk until your images are delivered.

They were so great to work with. My pictures turned out stunning and showed such artistic talent and creativity. Book them for your event, you won't regret it!

We are in Atlanta, GA - but we love to travel and will go anywhere to tell a good love story! Get to know us better and say hi!

We were looking for timeless, romantic with warmth and candid shots with photography and videography package; Hellen, Rafael, and Team are wonderful to work with! They are all we wished for our wedding day=) From the beginning, Hellen wanted to know us better of asking our love story, how we met, what we like, what are our fave foods, shows, music, etc. After they detail oriented a contract package and timeline which I love so everyone is on the same page. During our engagement shoot, Hellen & Rafael were calm, easy going and fun with amazing directions as they shoot our poses. They made us laugh and made us feel loved<3 This continued on during our wedding day; Hellen, Rafael, Goose, and Christine( I'm sorry If don't spelled your name right) were also professional and quick thinking with every shot! They made sure our family shot list is all checked and arrange each group to their positions correctly. Also made us feel like stars lol. There were minor issues with timing but they're personality overlook them=) Thank you sooo much!! for making our day happy!

My passion for wedding photography stems from my love of storytelling. Weddings are filled with moments of joy, laughter, and love, and I believe in honoring every genuine connection and fleeting glance that happens throughout the day. Every couple has a unique story, and my goal is to help you relive yours for years to come through images that evoke the same emotions you felt on your wedding day. Being in Business for 6years with over 120 Wedding shot across the country.

We started with an engagement shoot to get to know him, which I highly recommend. Throughout the process he was a great communicator, and always helped with any questions. When it came to the wedding day he was super organized, and stayed on our timeline which was great. Most importantly, the pictures are beautiful!! 10/10

Your wedding photography should feel as unforgettable as the day itself—filled with emotion, depth, and those blink-and-you-miss-it moments that make it yours. My approach blends editorial artistry with real, heartfelt storytelling—so you get the iconic, cinematic shots and the quiet, unscripted moments in between. With a mix of film and digital photography, I create images that feel nostalgic yet modern, timeless yet full of life. Whether you're celebrating in a historic estate, a backyard under the stars, or halfway across the world, I’m here to capture it with care, intention, and an eye for the details that matter most.

She is an insanely gifted photographer who brought our wedding day to life in a way I could’ve only dreamed of. She was such a kind and comforting presence throughout the entire process leading up to and during our wedding day. Her eye for things might be incredible, but so are her dance moves. She will capture YOU as a couple, as an individual, and will show what makes you special. I cannot recommend her enough!!
