Intimate wedding photographer originally from the coast of VA, but now based in the North Georgia Mountains & love finding new adventures while exploring the outdoors. When I am not hidden behind my camera, you can find me hiking up a new mountain with my fur babies, eating tacos, or spending quality time with my little family. I started out capturing families, then realized that my heart is completely drawn to love & the bond that two people share. I describe my photography as bold, intimate & sincere. I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions as well as the pure romance between two people on their wedding day.

Between our engagement photos and the wedding, Hannah was so much fun to work with! Her prices are fair and her quality of work is fantastic. Love her editing style. She had the photos back to us within 2 weeks for sneak peaks and 3 weeks for everything! All my guests commented on how fun and sweet she was! Highly recommend

Hi! I'm Sarah. Congratulations on taking the next step in your wedding planning! Choosing to work with me earns you more than just a photographer; you get a hype-girl, a dress fluffer, a confidant and a new best friend. Since we are now future besties, here's what you should know about me: My love for portraiture stems from the joy it brings me to make others feel beautiful. Few things make me feel as giddy as photographing weddings, engagements & proposals, and I can't wait to capture the next stage of your love story. My strengths lie in natural lighting, illuminating colors, and catching the candid moments that make you, you.

Awarded Best of Zola
There is not enough good things we can say about Sarah! From day 1, she had great communication before the proposal while deciding the perfect location and how we would meet up with her. She executed flawlessly and I never saw her until the ring was on my finger even though she followed us for a bit before the big moment. She made us feel so comfortable for the photoshoot after and was willing to go to a few different spots with us all while carrying all of our stuff so it wouldn’t be in our pockets for the pictures. We received the sneak peeks the next day and were blown away with how well they turned out, she nailed it!! She got the big “I do” moment which was most important and then captured so many other sweet moments right before and after that I will forever be so grateful we can relive because of her photos. The best thing about her is that you can feel the joy coming out of the screen when you look through her galleries. So many people have raved over how well our engagement photos turned out. Everyone should book Sarah, she is so great at what she does!!

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Awarded Best of Zola
Diana was absolutely amazing and I would 100% recommend her to anyone with no hesitation. From initial contact on, Diana was understanding of our concerns, given that we had had an issue with a previous photographer, and truly worked to reassure us and gain our trust. She was flexible, so positive and personable and of course, the photos we’ve seen so far are absolutely gorgeous and we can’t wait to see the rest. Our friends and family raved about Diana and her assistant Sarah, and told us how wonderful and friendly they were, that they felt like they were really on top of it, addressed any concerns that they had and just overall were an absolute pleasure to be around and had such a positive impact on our day. If you’re reading this and are on the fence about hiring Diana, which I don’t understand how you could be, let this be your sign to work with her. You will have no regrets and you will absolutely love your photos!

Living my best life in suburban Maryland. I love art and being creative, so photography just seemed like the next step after being an actor for 15 years. Storytelling is a HUGE part of my life- whether it’s sitting around the dinner table recounting funny memories or looking at old photographs of my own family. Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before? I'm here to hold your hand.

Awarded Best of Zola
Having Laura as our photographer was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! She is the kindest, most creative, understanding, detail-oriented, and dedicated human, and her professionalism is beyond compare. She made our day seamless, and we had a ROLLERCOASTER with a downpour of rain, a fallen power line and an emergency back up location switch that involved walking through a woodland path in Maine in the mud. She never wavered, and made everything seem like it was her plan in the first place! She even took extra time to look at our venue in advance of the day which was above and beyond what was expected of her. If you are thinking of hiring her, GET IN WHILE YOU CAN!!!!

As a Memphis, TN Wedding photographer, I have been calling the Grind City my home for the past 10 years. I love the city, the lifestyle, and even the incredibly stupid traffic (although that won't keep the road rage down). I came here for my BFA in Photography and stayed for the Grind City life. My work focuses on the actions we take to show our care and love for each other. I cherish all types of human connection, and believe that our most precious memories deserve to be preserved in a way that is personable and true to us.

Wow, Michelle was an absolute GEM to have on my wedding day. An actual angel among us. Not only is she clearly an extremely skilled photographer, she also has a wealth of knowledge about weddings in general and made everything feel so much less intimidating. She was so willing to jump in to help with other small wedding details I hasn’t considered, and never made me feel bad for being unsure about how I wanted things to be. She’s so communicative and has a clear vision for how to help you achieve the wedding you truly want to have. I will be recommending her to anyone who mentions needing a photographer!

If you're the kind of couple that would prefer their photographer feel like one of the guests as opposed to a paparazzi, and if when the neighbors complain about the noise, you just invite them to the party, keep reading. I take a documentary-style approach to my weddings. Roaming with a camera, I capture the candid moments and small details that make your wedding unique to you, while making sure to set aside time for a few special portraits.

Awarded Best of Zola
Steph isn't just an amazing wedding photographer, she's an amazing human. Working with her was like getting an extra bonus guest -- a bonus guest who can absolutely crush a wedding shoot. She knew just how to pose us, light us, and capture our most important moments, all while staying basically invisible. We had no idea she even got some of the beautiful shots she did until we saw our previews, because she was just that good. Hire Stephanie to shoot your wedding; your children will thank you in 20 years.

What if your photos actually looked and felt like you? Picture yourself 10 years from now on your wedding anniversary looking back at your wedding album with tears welling up in your eyes as you relive your day. Your wedding should not feel like a performance. Let go of boring wedding traditions, think outside of the box and create something unique that has never been done before. Whatever the perfect day looks like for you, why shouldn’t that be your wedding day? I am more than your wedding photographer, I am your guide, biggest fan, and the curator of your love story, I will also be the one tearing up from behind my lens.

Danielle was professional, warm, and knowledgeable. She guided us through every step of our day and weathered through unexpected torrential downpours and hurricane winds all while keeping morale up for the whole wedding party! Danielle took the time to get to know what we wanted and needed from her and her intuition filled in the parts that we didn’t even know we needed. Loved Danielle, Love love love our photos, couldn’t recommend her enough!

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

We had the pleasure of working with Emma for our engagement photos, my bridal portraits, bridal shower and our rehearsal dinner. We couldn't be happier with the results. From the very beginning, Emma was incredibly professional, attentive, and truly passionate about capturing the essence of our love story. For our engagement session, she made us feel completely at ease and guided us with such a gentle touch, making the experience fun and natural. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, capturing the joy, excitement, and deep connection we share. When it came time for my bridal portraits, Emma exceeded all expectations. She understood how important these photos were to me, especially since I was wearing my late grandmother’s ring, which holds immense sentimental value. Emma managed to capture not only the beauty of the dress and the setting but also the emotions and memories tied to this moment. She has an incredible eye for detail and lighting, and the photos are a perfect blend of candid and posed shots that reflect our personalities and relationship beautifully. The final images are more than just pictures; they are timeless keepsakes that we will cherish forever. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in telling your story through photos, look no further than Emma. We can't recommend her enough! Thank you, Emma, for capturing these special moments that we'll treasure for a lifetime!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Justina as our wedding photographer, and she exceeded all of our expectations! Just looking at her work, we knew she was the one. From our first meeting, it was clear that Justina possesses incredible talent and a true passion for her craft. Her ability to capture the essence of every moment is unmatched.

Her responsiveness and professionalism made us feel confident and relaxed, knowing we were in great hands. On our wedding day, Justina went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Her attention to detail and creative approach were evident in every shot. She managed to capture not just the big moments but also the candid, heartfelt interactions that made our day so special (and were a huge priority to us).

Each image was a masterpiece, reflecting the joy, love, and excitement of our celebration - my husband and I both got emotional going through them together.

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming.

Sarah made everything so fun, made me feel like her most important client, and most of all, genuinely cared about what my husband and I hoped for in our wedding photos. She brought so much energy to our day, and was an absolute joy to hang out with all day. My husband, not one for all the details and photos, even had the best experience of his life with her.

These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé and I loved working with Lucia! She did an engagement photo session with us, and the whole experience was fantastic from beginning to end. She set up a video call to get to know us, get a sense for who we were and what we were looking for, and then was super helpful and communicative when picking a location for the shoot. She was able to share sites she had used before with photos from those locations, and she shared input from other photographers on locations we thought of that she hadn't used before. When we started looking for a photographer we were apprehensive about the whole thing because we're both by nature pretty awkward in front of a camera, but she made us super comfortable and you can tell how relaxed we were when looking at the photos. We genuinely had family members say "now that's what I think of when I picture you two" when they saw our photos. She even asked for some of our favorite music and had it playing when we started, which was super thoughtful! For the shoot itself, she gave us plenty of direction but was also really collaborative and open to any of our ideas for poses or shots or areas of the location to use. We were worried on the way to the shoot because it was rainy when we first showed up at the park, but right away she had ideas for how to still find usable areas and took some great shots, and even had some clear umbrellas that made for a cute look. When the rain let up, we were able to get some wide shots that really took advantage of the location and she did a fantastic job of editing out the groups of oblivious sightseers that walked into frame. The photos definitely capture us as a couple and showcased the location we chose. After the session we got our preview gallery back in record time. She told us she was going out of town on a family trip a few days after our shoot but she'd get our preview turned around before she left so that we didn't have to wait, and she totally delivered (and probably 3x the amount she promised, so she even overdelivered). We got the full gallery back exactly when she said, and they all look amazing; we loved the experience and the photos we get to share with family and friends.

Hire Kate as your wedding photographer!! Kate was one of our absolute favorite vendors from our wedding and the day truly wouldn't have been the same or gone they way it did without her. From the initial meeting, to the check-ins, and the day-of, Kate was so kind and so professional. We had Kate photograph our welcome event the day before our wedding and it was a great way to get us and our guests comfortable before our big day. On the day of the wedding, we got so many compliments about Kate from the wedding party and our families. She made sure everyone knew where they needed to be, how to pose, and was so efficient with family photos before our ceremony. After the wedding, we received SO many sneak peeks within a week of the wedding and it was so fun getting to relive the day through her beautiful photography.

We highly recommend Courtney at Wild Opal to anyone looking for a photographer who will not only meet but exceed your wedding day needs. The gallery tells our love story so well, and we can’t stop staring at the beauty captured! Beyond stoked about these!

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

My husband and I can't recommend Kaitlyn enough. From the booking process, our engagement shoot, through the wedding itself Kaitlyn was thoughtful, professional, and attentive to our preferences and requests. She even drove 3 hours to do our engagement shoot in Wisconsin and was able to film our ceremony on her own! Her sneak peek the next day made us so so happy, and she got every photo on our list, including some out of order or spontaneous based on how the day went. We couldn't have been happier with Kaitlyn's services! Rachel & Alex

From the moment we booked Modern Day Lovers, the photographers were incredibly responsive and provided us with sneak peeks of our photos within days of our wedding. Dylan and his team were friendly professionals who made us feel at ease throughout the day. The quality of their work was phenomenal - the photos captured the beauty of our special day perfectly and are truly the best pictures we've ever had taken. They were incredibly organized and flexible, helping to keep our wedding day running smoothly. Dylan in particular went above and beyond to make our day extra special.

1828 Collective 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Girard, IL for additional fees

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you have spent even just a few minutes checking out McKenna's work, it is obvious how good she is at getting her subjects comfortable! Creating images that are playful and honest. Well crafted and timeless. Intimate and irresistibly fun. But what you may not be able to see through the limitations of your computer screen, is how she exudes positivity, enthusiasm, and carries a genuine curiosity. Does this sound like someone who you would want at your wedding? I hope so. I have had the pleasure of working along side her while capturing video and I'd happily have her at every wedding taking the photos! Hire her to tell your story.

Milieu 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Girard, IL for additional fees

The word ‘milieu’ defines how we want to capture your wedding: as whole of scenery. Any experience is the result of a series of moments and feeling of our interaction with others. Images can recreate those intangible elements more fully in our mind, allowing us to relive our emotional experience long after the day has ended.

Awarded Best of Zola
Salvatore (Milieu) made our wedding day even more special than we could have expected. We LOVED his beautiful and creative ways of capturing our most special moments (if you look at his portfolio, you will know exactly what I mean). He is so very kind, professional, and made us so comfortable. He was so accommodating and helped us come up with a way to get all of the photos we wanted within the time frame we had to work with. I can go on and on about how much we loved working with Salvatore! He is truly a 1 of a kind find and we HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend him!
