More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We used Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. for our wedding and engagement photos, and they were amazing from start to finish. Their communication was clear, helpful, and enthusiastic throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was efficient, stunning, and highly personalized to our style. They sent us multiple photographer options to choose from, and we went with Sabatani, who captured every moment of our special day beautifully. OLAS also helped us create a detailed day-of timeline to ensure everything ran smoothly. We're thrilled with the photos and couldn't have asked for a better photography experience for our wedding.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

I love being a wedding photographer in Asheville. Spending time with couples one on one to develop a personal connection and make them feel comfortable is what I love! I want everyone to feel like they are in their comfortable and natural environment when they are with me. Capturing people’s natural emotions and connections with those they love is why we take photographs, right? So let’s get comfortable and make the process stress free! When you hire me you get me. I will always be the person that you work with, from the first email, through your future sessions. No outsourcing photographers here!

AMANDA. ARTIST. EXPLORER. COFFEE DRINKER. TIME MACHINE. So you just got engaged and you need a photographer. Documenting all that love is a wonderful gift for yourself and everyone who loves you. My superpower is being able to see your beauty the way the people who love you do, and then capture it in awesome photos of you so that you can see it too. And there’s no awkward posing or fake smiles involved. Just goofy fun and bad jokes, and you being yourself. So come see the world through my eyes. And maybe you’ll decide you’d like to see yourself through my eyes, to see yourself the way the folks who love you see you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have had the pleasure of working with Amanda both on weddings and as my co-host on the Super Gay Wedding podcast and she's earned my absolute highest recommendation. I literally recommend her to all of my clients. Beyond being a consummate professional and a lovely human, Amanda is a trained fine artist with an incredible eye for lighting and composition. If you leave a little wiggle room in your wedding day schedule, you'll have an album full of beautiful memories that also happen to be fine works of art. Amanda is a true team player who will do whatever it takes to make your wedding day work. An avid traveler and hiker with a small Jeep obsession, she'll also do that WHEREever it needs to be done. Do yourself a favor and schedule a consultation with Amanda RIGHT NOW.

HEY THERE! I'M ALYSSA! aka, Your go-to wedding day sidekick! I’m thrilled you’re here! With roots in Hawaii and Pennsylvania, I have an adventurous spirit fueled by local coffee, anime, and delicious food. When I’m not capturing love stories, you’ll find me camping, stand-up paddleboarding, hiking, skiing, or snowboarding. I’m also a proud mom to my daughter and our dog!

Alyssa Johnson Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Alyssa knew exactly what was going on and asked all the right questions to ensure our big day went off without a hitch. Her communication was amazing - she was always quick to respond and worked with us closely to get everything we could ever want. Alyssa's photography style is very simple and elegant, capturing all the special moments in a beautiful and timeless way. She even went the extra mile, doing a few tasks that helped everything blend super smoothly. We are thrilled with the final photos and couldn't be happier that we chose Alyssa Johnson Photography to capture our wedding memories.

I've always held such a high priority on making memories that will last lifetime. This is one of the many reason I started a photography business. Just a little bit about me, I'm 23 years. Married to my high school sweetheart, Noah. We moved to Upstate, SC from our home state of sunny south Florida to start a life as newlyweds. If you are a lover of moody, intimate and timeless photography, let's connect. I would love to work together :)
