We’re Anton & Natalie - your new adventure buddies! On our first date we spent the day doing what we love most, getting outside. That’s also how we spent our wedding day, and most other significant, life-altering moments in our relationship. We fundamentally believe that the best day of your life should be spent doing what makes your heart sing. You’re not here because you don’t care about your day, you’re here because you care more. You don’t want the ordinary and traditional. You want care more about experiences rather than material possessions. You want the authentic, intimate, and intentional day which focuses on YOU as a couple.

These two can truly be your one stop shop for an unforgettable elopement, as Natalie is an officiant and also creates beautiful floral arrangements! Take this as you sign to hire them! You will not regret it!

Adelaide Street Photo + Film

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Gardendale, AL for additional fees

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! :)

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. I love getting all the moments, even the little in between ones that may go unseen. 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. I highly recommend them!

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

I have known Sam, the owner, for a number of years. There are many things I can speak to about his business and him as a person. First thing is that feeling you get when you meet someone that is so fun to be around that you simply don't want to stop being around them. Sam puts a smile on my face every time I see him and hear his contagious laugh. Sam also crushes the benchmark for professionalism and success in the wedding industry. What I mean by that is that if 9/10 photographers get 5 star reviews, on the same scale Sam would deserve 7 or 8 stars. He is well beyond many of our peers and it shows in the quality of his work. If I was to get married again I would choose Sam over any of the 60 or so photographers I have worked with over the years. Hands Down! Chris Hiltz Award-Winning Wedding Videographer

We look forward to working with you and capturing your big day, one frame at a time!

Awarded Best of Zola
My experience with VNC Photography was absolutely amazing! My fiancé and I planned our early morning elopement months in advance, however literally 11 days before the wedding, I decided I wanted to try to have a videographer there to record the ceremony. We were adamant that we just wanted the two of us (plus the officiant and photographer) there, but I wanted video footage for us to look back on. In my late night, last minute searching, one videographer who was unavailable highly recommended Vandreena. I reached out to her and in her response to me, I immediately knew she was the one! She followed up with me the next day via phone and in that conversation, my decision was confirmed. We touched bases the day before the ceremony and she was there in plenty of time to set up. During the ceremony, she made me feel comfortable, yet kept her distance to preserve the intimacy of the moment. I was expecting a week or so to get the footage back, but I was pleasantly surprised to get the videos 2 days later! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched the ceremony and the highlight reel. She captured everything we wanted this moment to be! HIGHLY recommend!!!!

Hey there, I am so happy you are here. A GIRL WITH A DREAMI am a big time lover of love, Jesus, and traveling the world - but you can just call me Hailey. Based in ATL, Im a full time wedding photographer. Im always down for an adventure. When I'm not behind a camera, you can find me on zooming off on a hike with my husband or chatting someone's ear off about my latest podcast obsession. I am here for all the coffee, hugs, & candids. ohh and my Cat hehe

Awarded Best of Zola
I chose Hailey from the moment we had our initial call to talk through her services. She listened so well to our wedding vision & asked thoughtful questions. We were forgoing a wedding coordinator & other “extras.” Hailey was still excited to take us on as clients which some photographers would not have. I was ready to confirm during the call with how supportive and excited she sounded about our day. From this call, she sent over her proposal for cost & information very quickly. She was responsive via text & email to any questions we had. Closer to the date, she sent over a questionnaire so she could be prepared with the photos we wanted. It also included tips & guidance on making sure the experience is smooth. This was super helpful. During the wedding, I was blown away by her and her second shooter. She was decisive when we needed someone to make a decision, supportive to me as a bride, went above and beyond to handle any last minute changes or hiccups with grace. My husband and I had never had professional photos taken. She made it sooo easy and fun! The photos are sooo creative and I continue to pinch myself that they are ours! Wow! Here’s where she deserves to be shouted from the rooftops: We scheduled a hike we wanted photographed to a waterfall on site at the venue (our venue at Hawkesdene in NC lodges all guests for 2 nights). The venue shared it was 1 mile in/out and not difficult. Well it HAILED the night before and rained all night so the path was flooded and muddy. We had to decide to forge ahead or cancel. She without hesitation was ready to forge ahead, ruining her shoes, to ensure we could still have our hike documented with our guests. She encouraged me along the way and I am so grateful because the photos are just incredible. Anyone would be truly lucky to have Hailey capture their wedding. This review doesn’t do her or her skills justice. I will forever cheer her on & can’t wait to find an opportunity to work with her again in the future.

Raven Shutley

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Gardendale, AL 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!!

I believe in true love and the beauty of candid laughter. I fell in love with photography when I realized I could capture the existing beauty in every person I had the blessing to photograph. There's more to it than clicking a button -- you need an eye for artistry, moments, and equilibrium. I freakin' love people and I love stories, so this is just the best job for me! True to color but warm, a vibrant richness, and drawing out natural beauty is how I would describe my style. I want you to feel like I'm a friendly face coming along on an adventure with you, not paparazzi getting in your way.

After being adopted from China, I fell in love with everything creativity. I was always drawing, dancing, editing my friend’s insta pictures for fun, and of course having mini photoshoots of my dog. I felt so much joy when it came to creating art that could be saved forever. It didn’t take until college that I used all my money from my savings to buy my own camera- yeah I definitely knew my priorities. When I had time in between classes and studying I devoted it to taking pictures of my friends/family.

I truly cannot say enough kind things about Rylee! From our initial inquiry meeting all the way to the wedding day, Rylee was enthusiastic, joyful, and just so great to work with. She is so easy to talk to and it felt like I immediately gained a new friend. Her work is beautiful and authentic and really captures the moment perfectly. You can tell she really cares about what she does and also cares about her couples. My husband and I did an engagement session with Rylee too and loved all the photos from that as well. Rylee will be your number one hype girl and will make you feel at ease and comfortable. Would definitely recommend Rylee for any of your photography needs!! :)

Welcome to Franzi Annika Photography, where elegance meets the artistry of visual storytelling. We are Franzi and Martin – a husband-wife duo. While our European roots shape our style, our dedication to the art of photography is what guides us. Through our in-the-moment, meticulous focus on the finer details, we create a collection of genuine narratives preserved on film. These photographs will continue to reflect the emotional depth of your celebration for generations to come.

You won’t find photographers more skilled or personable than Franzi and Martin! They photographed our engagement in Charleston, SC, rehearsal dinner and wedding in Boston, MA. We cannot recommend them highly enough for your next engagement session, wedding, or event! Working with them was a dream and we feel so lucky to have met them. First, if you took all the photography away, Franzi and Martin will enhance your wedding day just by being a part of it. They are warm, funny and fit right in with the gals/guys and families. They also got along and coordinated so well with our venue, floral designer and planner - everyone loved working with them. We all felt so comfortable around them and this is reflected in the natural, beautiful photos. They are also incredibly professional, prepared and organized. The morning of the wedding, they had already scouted and planned all of the locations for the first look, family and bridal party photos, and husband/wife shots. We didn’t have to do or think about a thing in terms of photos the entire day - we just followed their lead! During the ceremony and reception, they were so subtle in taking their photos. We were able to enjoy the day without it feeling like a photoshoot. The photos were simply stunning. We have gotten so many compliments on how unique and personal our photos are. Most importantly, they feel like us, because Franzi and Martin got to know us throughout this process. We had such a hard time putting together an album because we had too many favorites to choose from! One of the guiding values for choosing our wedding vendors was to find true artists who are passionate about their craft and then trust them to work their magic. Franzi and Martin are just that - artists. We wanted them to have complete creative control and freedom and would encourage everyone who works with them to do the same - your photos will be gorgeous, and your wedding day memories will be made better because Franzi and Martin were there.

With over 10 years of industry experience, my strengths clearly lie in wedding and portraiture photography. Whether you're a recently engaged couple looking for someone to preserve your journey from fiancés to newlyweds through photographs, an expectant Mama hoping to capture your maternity glow or simply wanting to document you and your loved ones during whatever special season of life you're in, I would love to hear from you, I specialize in all types of portraiture but I am renowned for my wedding and engagement photography above all else. Whatever your photo needs are, I would love to chat and find out if we're a good match.

Sam was our girl from the beginning. She encouraged our pups in our engagement photos and worked around their lack of being photogenic. She pushed us, comfortably, out of our comfort zone. She was found by my Maid of Honor on Instagram and I immediately knew her style was what I had been looking for. When it came to wedding day I was most excited to see not only our photographer, but a friend. She was supportive, easy to work with and guided us in the right direction when needed. She knocked out our photos in a timely manor while positioning and giving great direction as to where to move to make the picture look better (something that was important to me). I am happy to scream her name for recommendations from now on & return to her in the future!

Hello friends! A little about me: I honestly LOVE weddings and elopements. I believe in creating a relaxed and fun environment that adds value to your wedding day, and not taking away from the experience. What that means is I mix action based posing that creates real memories and fun moments, with a photojournalistic approach. This means more time in the moment and enjoying your day and less time saying "Cheese!" I am for the couples who love to laugh, want to have fun and are looking for a relaxed and organized professional for their day.

I am a wedding planning/ coordination liaison that recently worked with Jessica June for a wedding at Camp Colton . Jess was a very fantastic photographer with a pleasant, down to earth, easy-going attitude. I enjoyed chatting with her about composition and more as we toured the property/ and throughout the evening as the timeline progressed. She recently shared her images from that day, and I loved her work! Very thorough, some great creative edits, and she was able to capture wonderful expressions and heartfelt candid moments- (many guests too- not just the wedding party;) I would recommend her to be a part of your wedding day DreamTeam!

10/10 would absolutely recommend Holly! We plan on contacting her again in the future when it comes time for maternity photos. My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Holly. I am very shy when it comes to any photos being taken of me, I usually hide the best I can when a camera comes out. Depsite, being our wedding photos, I was still not looking forward to that part. However, Holly creates an atmosphere that really eases any anxiety. She guides you through everything so well and really hypes you up during each photo. She made me feel so confident throughout the entire photoshoot. She captured amazing candid photos of us as well that are absolutely adorable and on point with how we are with one another. We couldn't be more in love with how everything turned out! I would definitely recommend her for all photos you want taken, her energy and personality will make your photos perfect. She truly brought out the best in us in all of ours!

Light and bright, timeless photographs and videos for weddings and couples. ND, New England & CA based, available for travel. I describe myself as kind of Type A, kind of Type B. When it comes to photographing your wedding, I take a mixed approach of being a "fly on the wall" and guiding when appropriate. Lots of times my couples see their galleries and noticed things they had no clue even happened during the day. Candids and true documentary style photographs are what I strive to provide, as well as traditional photographs and poses.

Mariah was absolutely perfect as our wedding photographer. She stepped in less than 3 months before our wedding because our other photographer fell through. She was amazing to work with and made us the priority even after our wedding when she was getting our photos ready. She and Doug were so nice and we had so much fun with them. We will definitely be using her again in the future. I would highly recommend her for wedding photography. Her style was exactly what we were looking for and she executed it perfectly. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer.

We are a family owned company that started in 2014. This was my dream and so I decided to name my company after my daughter "Laura Alexandra" since she was the reason for starting my company. We offer many different types of sessions but our passion is capturing love. From engagements to weddings we are there to capture every moment for everlasting memories.

So thankful for having this beautiful soul capture my special day not only did the photos come out gorgeous but she was so helpful with posing and fixing minor flaws. So talented, kind and friendly. She treats her clients as if they’re her own family and friends and does great with communication and keeping in touch. I booked her almost a year before my wedding date and we communicated almost weekly she’s great

Moira was the best photographer we could have hoped for! Not only was she flexible in the ever changing craziness of the day, but she made it so fun! We laughed pretty much the whole day through and it literally felt like we were working with a friend. On top of all that, the photos that we’ve received so far are absolutely amazing! She really captured the best parts of the entire day.

Kallie Anne Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Gardendale, AL for additional fees

Hi friends! I'm so glad you stopped by my site. I'm Kallie, and this is my business, my creative outlet, my dream, and my vision. I graduated high school in 2017, where I continued to pursue my love for photography. I gradually started building a photography clientele base by shooting family sessions, seniors, and couples. In 2018 I started second shooting weddings and quickly fell head over heels for them! I had been around weddings my whole life helping with decorating and catering, which is what I think blinded me from seeing how amazing it is to be able to capture a love-soaked wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kallie was so easy to work with and made our intimate wedding come to life!! We initially met over coffee and went over everything (location, mandatory shots, etc.) We switched locations multiple times and she was very accommodating to our request(s). The pictures came out AMAZING and we got so many compliments!

Hi! I'm Erin. I've been in the photography business since 2008. My passion for capturing perfect moments grew immensely when my babies came along. I didn't want to miss a thing! One of the things I love most about weddings is that no two are alike. I am blessed to be able to experience each and every unique day. I am married to the most precious husband I could ever dream of. We have five children and lots of pets. I enjoy spending time with my family and pets, being outdoors in nature, exploring, reading, cooking, and rescuing animals.

Erin is truly an amazing person to work with and I highly recommend her as a photographer!
