From the moment we met him, he made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and guided us through poses in a way that felt natural, relaxed, and fun. We shot at The Looking Glass and up in the mountains, and the views and locations he helped us choose were absolutely breathtaking—truly unforgettable.

By the luck of the draw, Nathan was available for our very quickly planned wedding--we snagged the last date he had in June 2024. I was ecstatic because I had always admired his work. My now husband and I had a blast working with him, we never thought taking photos/videos would be one of the highlights of our big day but it really was. The whole family loved working with Nathan, too. He was laid back but nothing short of a true professional--he was somehow everywhere, capturing everything yet never in the way. He went with the flow with funny family eccentricities that popped up and made everyone feel comfortable. Our photos and video got back to us in shockingly record time and we can't choose favorites because we love them all. Multiple people we've shared photos have said, "that looks straight out of Vogue or a magazine." If you're lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with Nathan in any capacity, whether it be a wedding or other shoot, do not pass this amazing artist up.

Erin did a spectacular job capturing every aspect of our wedding! She was able to find the perfect moments and highlight them with true mastery. If there was a good angle, Erin had already found it and made sure it was flawless! Our favorite photos included places she suggested and even some special surprises that we didn't know about, like the positioning of our rings and candid family moments.

Irvin Music Studio 
Rating: 5.0 (14 reviews)
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $450
  • Serves Hot Springs, NC

This small company serves as a hub for Sam and Kylie Irvin's musical projects based in Asheville, NC. They are passionate performers, educators, and advocates for the arts with years of training and experience in the field. With a broad range of interests, this couple and their colleagues can offer an extensive variety of instruments like solo classical guitar, guitar/violin duet and Kylie B. & the Birds, a jazz ensemble.

Sam played at my niece's outdoor wedding in September, and was a joy to have with us that day. His pop and jazz concert prior to the ceremony, the classical music he played for the processionals, and the music at the end and afterwards during photos really elevated the whole morning. He is a talented musician, dresses very well, was super easy to work with regarding the program, showed up on time and is a true professional. I would hire him again in a minute, can't say enough nice things about the whole experience and how easy and beautiful he made it for our family to add music to the day.

Choosing the right photographer is a big deal—truly one of the decisions that can make or break your entire experience. We met Nathan at the very beginning of our journey, during our engagement shoot at the Biltmore Estate. We were both nervous, awkward, and completely unsure of what to expect. Then Nathan arrived, and everything changed. Within minutes he had us laughing, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying ourselves. That was the moment we knew he wasn’t just talented—he was special. So when it came time to choose someone to capture our wedding in Sedona, we took a chance and asked if he would fly out. Honestly, we thought it was a long shot… but he immediately said yes. And thank goodness he did. I will never forget the moment he walked into the room on my wedding day. I had just started feeling that wave of nerves while finishing my hair, and the instant Nathan stepped in, I felt completely at ease. How does he do that? He has this quiet magic about him—an ability to ground you, hype you up, and disappear into the background all at once. His passion is infectious. His eye for intimate, meaningful moments is unreal. And somehow, while capturing every single one of those moments, he manages to remain practically invisible. When we received our gallery, we both laughed, cried, and sat there in awe. It felt like reliving the day, but through the lens of someone who truly understood us. To put it simply: Nathan is gifted. Exceptionally, unmistakably gifted. We even showed our engagement photos to another top-tier photographer, and her reaction was: “Book him immediately. His editing is some of the most incredible work I’ve seen—I want to talk to him myself!” If you're reading reviews trying to decide who to trust with your memories, stop here. You’ve found the one. Nathan exceeded every expectation we had—and then ten more we didn’t even know we should have. He is the best of the best.

From the mountains to the coast I've been capturing amazing stories and moments for over eight years now. I absolutely love creating beautiful authentic films of couples and their wedding day. It's an honor really, so I'm always grateful! My goal is to create films that you'll fall in love with over and over again. I defiantly recommend checking out my Instagram, that's definitely a platform where I keep the most updated films and clips I've created, also a great place to find inspiration for the style and vibe of your wedding day. Please let me know if there is anything I can help you with.

From the moment Tim from Be Creative Films arrived, his calm and friendly demeanor instantly put us at ease. He listened intently to understand what was most important to us on our wedding day, and his honest and efficient communication throughout the process was greatly appreciated. The final video he delivered captured all the special moments and emotions of our celebration in a truly incredible way. The quality of their work is priceless, and they ensured everything was completed on time without any hassle. We are thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend Be Creative Films to any couple looking for a talented and professional videography team to immortalize their wedding day.

Hey there! John & Amy here, the husband and wife team behind the cameras. We’re both adventurers, daydreamers, and you guessed it wildly in love. Fun fact, we’re actually highschool sweethearts and have been together for 10+ years. We are currently based in NC and are transitioning to WA in 2022. We love to travel and are down to adventure throughout the US & Beyond. We both have a heart for exploration and love working with couples who share this adventurous spirit. Genuine smiles, hearty laughs, spontaneous adventures, that’s what we’re all about.

We are over the moon with our photos and videos from Amy and John. The quality is incredible, and the quantity is unbelievable. They delivered an incredible amount of photos so quickly, and our friends and family have commented several times that it looks like our wedding was featured in a magazine spread because the quality is so impressive. We’ve been looking through them nonstop, and every time we see some new gem. They captured so many big and small moments throughout the weekend. It is incredible that they were able to capture so much without us or our guests feeling like there were cameras everywhere. They blended seamlessly, and it truly felt like we were just hanging out with them all day. They were so kind and lovely to work with and directed us beautifully, while allowing us to be ourselves and capturing genuine and authentic moments. They both brought such a calm presence. We can’t believe they captured so much content and so many angles when we don’t even remember them doing that - we mostly remember them being by our sides and talking and laughing with us. So many of our guests have said similar things. They truly impressed everyone and have given us so many incredible photos and videos to remember the weekend. Hiring them was such a great decision. We would 100% do it again and recommend them wholeheartedly.

Highland Brewing Company was an incredible venue for our Welcome Party from the very beginning, the communication with Erin Winters and Monica Mayville was quick, responsive, and easy to work with. When we had to quickly move our welcome party from New Belgium in February due to the hurricane, the team at Highland Brewing worked with us to get us situated for an April wedding. The spacious venue was perfect for our 99 person welcome party, and the staff was fantastic in helping us execute our special day. The beautiful space and great communication made our wedding day perfect. We highly recommend Highland Brewing Company as a wedding venue.

From the moment we reached out to JCM Photography, Jenny and Joe were amazing to work with. Their communication was excellent, and they made the entire process incredibly easy for us. We loved working with them, as they made sure to capture all the shots we requested, as well as some wonderful spontaneous moments on our wedding day.

This place is pure magic. It’s not just a stunning wedding venue, it’s a gorgeous weekend getaway in the mountains with 20 of your loved ones. A few weeks later and we’re still swooning over our wedding at Laurel Falls! We got married at the end of September and it was absolutely beautiful. We loved being able to spend Thursday-Sunday on site with our closest people, which gave us the chance to really slow the weekend down and savor every moment. We’re an out-of-town couple but we fell in love with Laurel Falls immediately when we saw it online. Kristen, the events director, and Jordan, the owner, were incredibly kind and helpful throughout the entire process. Jordan gave us a virtual tour of the venue and shared the site’s special history with us throughout. When we were in town, he also took the time to give us an in-person tour! Kristen is ON IT — she quickly responds to emails, helps navigate any challenges, and is just an all-around rockstar. The love and care the LF team has put into the property is obvious — from the Helene renovations to the thoughtfully stocked accommodations to the prompt communication — they are a dream to work with! We cannot recommend this venue enough!! We’re already planning our 10-year anniversary celebration here!

Carly was incredible to work with as our wedding photographer. We had know idea what we were doing, yet Carly made us feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. She had lots of great ideas/techniques to implement our vision and was an absolute joy to work with. Our photos couldn’t have came out more amazing. We are obsessed with the final product.

Emerald Ridge made every part of our weekend so perfect and special. This location and views are absolutely STUNNING. The owners truly cared so much and made our day magical. Their organization and communication are both top notch. We recommend using the coordinator at the venue, Malorie, as she was the true MVP and knows every detail at this venue back to front. We booked the no rush weekend and used the venue for our rehearsal as well. Our dog stayed with us all weekend as well which made us feel right at home. All in all we couldn’t be happier and enjoyed every minute here.
