Hello! My name is Christian. I'm an artist. Whether camera shy or not, my couples and their friends or family have a great time with me and I make the experience pretty easy and enjoyable since I'm an awesome director. It has taken me a lot of studying, practice and natural talent to get to where I am today. I've documented over 600 weddings leaving many happy clients in many different areas of the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Love Knot Photography

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
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

We all connect to those moments that are honest. My job is to find the light and create the space that allows you to enjoy your Wedding day with presence. My clients seek me out and often praise me for spotting and capturing stolen glances and every little hidden moment then preserving it forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
He is absolutely kind, energetic, and professional throughout both of our shoots. ( we loved our engagement session so much we booked him right away for our wedding ! ) The photos and video came out beyond our wildest dreams. For two people who don't love being in front of the camera, I don't know how he does what he does. I never felt overly aware of the camera or like I was being posed. Yet somehow he pulled off the most amazing and epic photos and final video! Almost unbelievable. 10/10 recommend. The best around!

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.

We had Brandi and her partner Brian photograph our wedding and I cannot recommend her enough!! She is extremely creative and talented. She got every single shot on our shot list and then some and the pictures turned out amazing. She is extremely kind and fun to work with and there was not a single moment that she wasn’t photographing something.

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.

Alicia was amazing to work with. She was on time to the wedding and took every picture we asked her to. She worked up until the last minute to get the perfect shots throughout our wedding. We would highly recommend her to anyone!!

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it! I would recommend 505 media to anyone!!

Skyler has been nothing short of an absolute dream to work with! She shot our engagement photos, wedding photos, and a boudoir shoot. She has been incredibly kind and caring, even taking the time to reach out to us after we were hit by Helene. Her work is beautiful!! She was willing to adapt to the different styles we were wanting to try out for our pictures, and we were so, so pleased by every single photo. She was extremely communicative, punctual, and somebody we felt like we could trust throughout the craziness of getting married. She was worth every. single. penny! I am so grateful that we were able to not only get such great pictures of one of the biggest days for us, but that we got to meet Skyler and her husband in the process :-) I’m already scheming up reasons to have another photoshoot!!

Hey y'all, I'm so happy you are here! I'm Payton. I'm based in Asheville, NC but will travel to wherever your love takes you. When I'm not on a photoshoot I'm either traveling, hiking, or spending time with my family. I have been a photographer for 10 years and photographing weddings for 5. I have a BFA in Photography from RMCAD. I LOVE getting to know you and helping you plan out every minute detail of your wedding day. My passion is capturing the essence of my couple's love, every story is uniquely you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Payton was a hidden gem that I found through an intense Instagram/Facebook search for a wedding photographer. I was starting to get discouraged with the outrageous pricing of some of the big name photographers in the Birmingham, AL area and disappointed with the gallery examples of some of the cheaper options. When she messaged me back, her rates are so reasonable and affordable and her Instagram really shows how vibrant and dreamy her previous galleries have turned out. I felt like I could really trust her with capturing our special memories, I was right. Prior to the wedding, she sent out a questionnaire asking about our photography priorities and mindset. Also recently she started including an engagement session when you book her for a wedding package!! A steal! We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience with a Payton. She also is a traveling queen, so if you’re not in Birmingham, AL, don’t be discouraged!

I’ve had the opportunity to photograph many commencement ceremonies, birthday parties, and church events as well as tons of portrait sessions. However, weddings always give me butterflies. The beautiful details, the people, and the music makes me fall in love each time. There’s something special about witnessing love as it’s most authentic moment. The day goes by so fast, and I am able to freeze every tear, every laugh, and every kiss with just one click. But it’s truly more than that, it’s about creating an experience that you and your loved ones will never forget.

Kailli from Eleven 03 Photography was nothing short of amazing! From the very beginning, she was extremely responsive, patient and respectful in all of our communications. The quality of her work was absolutely incredible - the photos she captured of our wedding day were absolutely perfect. Kailli listened to exactly what we wanted and guided us through the poses, making us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. Everything I asked for, she provided and more. Kailli was professional yet down-to-earth, and our pictures turned out gorgeous. We cannot wait to use her services again!

Here I am years later running my business full-time & I love what I do. Capturing the raw moments and being the one to capture memories that you will look back on years to come.

I am a published photographer located in the beautiful state of Tennessee. I am a mama to two fascinating, wild little girls and I have a passion for running around, breathing in life. Photography has been a life long passion of mine; I can remember being a small child running around with disposable cameras trying to capture everything in site. Now, as an adult, photography is my way of making permanent what I, and others, hold close. I love tattoos, am romance book obsessed (honestly this career could not have been better picked) and hope to one day go sky diving! Now that you know a bit about me, I can't wait to learn about you!

From the moment we booked Beautiful Images by Toni, their communication was fast, helpful, and responsive. Toni's unique, creative, and fun style captured the excitement of our special day perfectly. She was there to help wherever she could, making everything feel seamless and just right. We are thrilled with the beautiful photos that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come. Toni and her team truly went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable.

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for over 10 years, and raising our two sweet boys on this little sandbar we call home is a dream come true. While we are based on the OBX, we happily serve couples on the Outer Banks and Beyond, and enjoy spending the winter months in Costa Rica.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

Photography has always been a part of my life in some shape or form. As a young girl, I wrote in my journal that I wanted to be a photographer.

The entire time up until the wedding, Catherine communicated with me and made sure she knew the vision I had for my wedding day. Behind the lens, on our wedding day, she was constantly encouraging us and managed to have ALL of the family photos flow seamlessly. Within the next few days, I was getting photos back and in just a month my whole album was ready! Talk about a quick turnaround!!

Hello, I'm Whitney. I’m a wedding photographer who loves capturing all the small moments in life. My passion for photography started long before it became my profession. I've always been captivated by how images can capture emotions, preserve moments, and tell stories that transcend time. With every click of the shutter, my goal is to freeze not just the smiles and laughter, but the deep feelings and love behind them-those tender moments that deserve to be cherished forever. For me, photography isn't just a job; it's an art form, a way to encapsulate the beauty in life's fleeting moments.

We couldn’t be happier with the photos taken by Whitney! From the very beginning, she took the time to get to know us, learning about our personalities and what we love, which made the whole experience feel so personal and special. The session was incredibly comfortable and easy—she made us feel at ease in front of the camera, and we could truly see her talent shining through. Not only did she capture the perfect moments, but the quality and creativity of the photos exceeded our expectations. Plus, the turnaround time was incredibly quick, which was such a pleasant surprise! We’re beyond thrilled with the results and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer with both skill and heart.
