Awarded Best of Zola
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!

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves East Bend, NC for additional fees

Fine art wedding photographer based in Phoenix AZ, and ready to capture your natural and authentic day! I have traveled and photographed over 150 weddings and believe in capturing the real emotion that happens on your wedding day with timeless editing . From elopements and backyard weddings to large venue banquets, I have all your photographic needs covered. I wear many hats during your wedding to be sure it is as stress free as possible. While I do not replace a wedding coordinator, my duties to you on your day, do overlap. I want to make sure that you enjoy every moment and that after you have stunning photos to fondly look back on.

Absolutely thrilled to share our experience with our amazing wedding photographer, Kristy Velesko! From start to finish, Kristy displayed exceptional communication skills, ensuring that every detail was perfectly planned, and answering all my emails and questions so promptly. Her energy and friendliness were contagious, making everyone feel at ease and adding a special spark to our day. Everyone in my wedding party loved working with Kristy! Kristy's vast knowledge about weddings was invaluable. She anticipated our needs and had creative solutions for everything (like how do I go to the ladies room in a HUGE ballgown - she knew!). Her artistic talent truly sets her apart; she photoshopped a stunning castle into our wedding photos, making our fairytale dreams come true! Not all photographers have this additional skill set! One of the standout moments was Kristy's ability to be the “bad guy” for us, especially when managing the bridal party. She expertly directed the groomsmen, ensuring everyone was in the right place at the right time. Especially when my groom gave them all lightsabers as gifts, you can assume the craziness that ensued! But everyone loved her even if she had to be bossy with them! A highlight was how impressed Disney’s Fairytale Weddings team was with her work. They couldn’t stop raving about her professionalism and the vibrant, beautiful photos she captured. Kristy truly has a gift for photography, and we are beyond grateful for the magical memories she created for us. We have since asked her to do family portraits and since I had 3 wedding gowns (Yes, 3!) - we had her do more portraits. They were all so gorgeous! Haven’t had a bad photo and I love how she knows exactly the directions to give us to get the best photos! Highly recommend her for any special occasion!

Bill Carroll was more than a DJ at my mom's wedding. He genuinely cared about my mom's wishes and made it clear he wanted her to have the best wedding ever. It's like he became a member of our family leading up to and during the wedding. He made the entire process SO easy. When it came to the actual wedding day, everything went off without a hitch. My favorite part was when everyone left to line up and send off my mom and her new hubby, he played one final song for just the two of them to dance to, by themselves, on the dance floor. It was so incredibly touching. I can't recommend him enough. Absolute stand up guy and a DJ who knows what he's doing! Everyone had a blast. We love you, Bill Carroll!

Raven Shutley

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves East Bend, NC 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 and her team are *phenomenal* and one of the main vendors we have to thank for making our wedding day as incredible as it was. From getting to meet Raven at the engagement session we did, she instantly took care to listen to what we were comfortable with and helped us have fun being in front of the camera (which for us is not in either of our comfort zones). On our wedding day itself, Raven and her team were such pros at wrangling family/wedding party members and also getting the shots that were most important to us. :) They are such calming presences and made us and all of our people feel so at ease, and we know that the photos are gonna be spectacular!! As people (and queer folks) who aren’t immediately comfortable with posing/having our picture taken, getting to work with Raven was such a gift and we are so thankful for her and everyone we got to work with from her team!!

James is absolutely amazing! We hired James a little over a year ago for our wedding! We were not getting married in our hometown so we decided to find someone in the town would get married in! We had our Engagement session with James last year in June in Roanoke Virginia. We were nervous before going, because sometimes the first session with a new photographer can be a little uncomfortable. Ours was FAR from it! We had the absolute best time! We laughed a lot and James was so fun to work with! Not to mention the pictures we got back from it were absolutely incredible. I could not recommend James more! Before our wedding James kept in touch and up to date with everything! This helped ease my anxiety before our big day. James arrived ahead of schedule on our wedding day and got started immediately! He is by far our favorite photographer that we have worked with and we will definitely be making trips to Roanoke in the future just to book sessions with him because yes we love him that much! We got our wedding pictures back and they are absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for better! We highly recommend booking James! You will not be disappointed at all! He is simply the best!

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

Lexi did a wonderful job capturing my husband and I’s wedding day! We couldn’t be more grateful for all the amazing photos she took for us. We will cherish them forever! Lexi is a very skilled photographer who pays close attention to detail. Her calm & caring personality was also very comforting for the both of us. Highly recommend L& L photography!

We are thrilled with the beautiful photos that will allow us to relive our wedding for years to come. Cecilia is worth every penny and we cannot recommend her highly enough.

I started photography as a second shooter with another local photographer and I fell in love with it. I love every aspect of my job, from meeting new people to editing photos. There truly is nothing better than getting a message from my clients about how happy they are with their images and how much it means to them. I have traveled to Colorado, California, New York, Florida, Alabama-- All over for weddings! I LOVE to travel for my work. So if you like my work, but realize I'm not close by, still reach out and let's talk!

I'm Megan, founder of Radiant Film NC. I created Radiant Film NC to help couples have a tangible, lasting memory of their wedding. I LOVE filming weddings for couples and creating something beautiful they can go back and watch to remember the best day of their lives by.

Megan is my sister but I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. While she was doing her MOH duties her team was behind the scenes handling everything so professionally so she could be in the moment with me. She still jumped in when she could for some extra behind the scenes footage with her 1st ever super 8 film at a wedding. Megan and her team are the most kind hearted and go the extra mile to make sure every detail and moment of your day is absolutely perfect. If I have learned anything from being married it would have to be pay for the extras and the add ons because these moments will be memories in the blink of an eye! Make sure to check out the super 8 on her website or inquire about it because it is so worth it! I also recommend adding on the raw footage of your day because that feels more real than anything just hearing those moments from that day over again brings you the best feeling. So I say this as a bride and not a sister you MUST book Radiant Film and definitely inquire about the add ons! Find videos on her website or social media pages.

I love what I get to do!! It’s my PASSION! I enjoy capturing all of the beautiful and unscripted moments. I love how every wedding is different and each one presents its unique moments that I seek after. I also do photography but I gotta say, there’s something extra special about being able to bring those photos to life and turning them into your own movie, so that you can relive every moment of your day instead of just seeing them in pictures. You get to feel the emotions and relive the moments with loved ones.

Alex is super friendly and fun to work with! He has a positive attitude and lots of energy that keeps his shoots exciting. His pictures are also great! I love the style of his editing. You can tell that he really loves what he does. I’d highly recommend him as a photographer/videographer for your event.

Hi! A little bit about my business is I started Nanii Negron films back in 2020 with an "experiment". Which was, "What is it that I can do with my drone and camera". At the time I just decided to buy a Canon M50 and a Phantom Pro Drone, why you ask? I don't know either! Haha. All I know is God knew what he was doing. With a mentor & no experience, I can proudly say I own a profitable videography company going on 2 years strong! I love meeting new clients and creating that bond that feels like we have been friends for years! At Nanii Negron films we go above and beyond for our clients to create a beautiful and timeless videos!

If you’re looking to hire a wedding photographer who can capture your big day in a “not so traditional” way, then you’re in the right place. We are Alternative Portraiture & Documentary Wedding Photographers based in sunny (and sometimes rainy) South Florida, and we like to think of ourselves as friendly, honest, and quirky (the good kind, we promise). We are creative beings at heart and love to tell stories unconventionally.

Erika is one of the most talented photographers I ever met. As wedding planner and designer I get to work with many great photographers but she is definitely one of my top to refer to. She will make you feel so comfortable, relaxed and you will have fun with this fun energetic lady who will capture every single moment of pure happiness. She is sweet, easy to communicate with and she gets you! Working with her is absolute pleasure every time!

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 story 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.

I believe you can't stand behind your business unless you can say you fully understand it – and 24 years of marriage is proof that I KNOW LOVE. I set out to capture the essence of love when I started Parker Photography in 2018. I have been married to my best friend for the last 24 years, and people who meet us swear we are newlyweds. We still act like lovestruck teenagers with each other, that same feeling we get from every newly engaged couple that we meet. We know where our couples are coming from and what they hope to capture in their engagement sessions and on their wedding day, and we make it effortless for them to achieve their goals.

Deb and her team did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding pictures in April 2021. The pictures are so beautiful and did a great job of capturing our day. She got the pictures back to us so quick too! Our friends and family have not stopped texting us raving about how nice the pictures came out! Would recommend Parker Photography to anyone.
