Christy and Alex are amazing ! They made us feel comfortable and the photos are a work of art. They capture every nose crinkle, every smile and tear. My family adored them and talked to them during the wedding. They explain what to do and just be yourself! The details of the wedding were captured so beautiful. Highly recommend and they are wonderful people. Feels like a friend not a vendor! Couldn’t thank them enough for making it to Iowa and capturing our big day. These photos are forever and generation after generation. Love Jennifer and Justin

Hi, I'm Kristen and I'm so excited you are here! I've been a wedding photographer for 17 years with hundreds of weddings under my belt. Diversity and inclusivity are very important to me both personally and professionally, so no matter who you are I want to document your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not more highly recommend Kristen! Kristen was one of the very first vendors that I booked for my August 2024 wedding and I could not be more happy in that decision. Kristen's style is timeless and true to color. She focuses on capturing the day as it happens rather than focusing only on super posed shots- which I love! Kristen's communication is clear, prompt, and honest- I so appreciated her insight through the wedding planning process and especially in developing the timeline. We also received far more sneak peeks than we expected and I'm still shocked with how quickly we received our full gallery! Kristen, we are so happy you were there to capture our day!

Sokol & Co Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Pawleys Island, SC for additional fees

Here's what you should know: First, it's pronounced Sokol like 'vocal'. We're Polish... like kraut-and-pierogi-at-every-family-gathering-Polish. Second, we're a husband and wife wedding photography duo that believes it's the little things that make the story come to life. From the knowing glances across a crowded room to the hand squeezes when you're about to walk down the aisle, you can trust us to capture your most romantic, candid moments.

Savanah and Andrew are two of the sweetest souls with an eye for every picture you could possibly need. From our first discover call until the big day, everything was handled with ease. Pictures can be awkward but they make it comfortable! They also think of all the small details you’d want but don’t think of. If our big day didn’t fit in their schedule, we would’ve moved it to fit on theirs. My pictures turned out better than I could’ve expected and I got sneaks right away. Everything was 10/10 and I couldn’t be more grateful they were a part of my special day.

Hi, I am Alyssa Farineau. I am the owner of Cherished Moments Photography. Photography has been my passion my whole life for as long as I can remember.

I would love to help you capture your most cherished moments.

We were so happy we chose Cherished Moments Photography for our wedding! Alyssa was friendly, knowledgeable, and punctual in all of our communications leading up to the big day.

She knew exactly how to pose us to showcase our love, and the final pictures were incredible - they reflected the way we see ourselves as a couple. The value was wonderful - Alyssa delivered far beyond our expectations while staying within our budget. We wholeheartedly recommend Cherished Moments for your special day!

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

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!!

Fueled by equal parts sweet tea and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

I know I can look forward to my upcoming wedding photos because our engagement photos came out beautifully! They’re so light and airy, and I just want to show them to everyone. Plus, my fiancé and I had no posing experience and she taught us the ropes so we looked comfortable and natural.

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 is incredible to work with! She respects your time and wants to make sure your day is smooth as butter and captures the most magical parts. Not only that, but I witnessed her show love and kindness in minor ways with such a massive impact on her Couple and their friends/family. She is such a kind ball of energy and light. You would be lucky to have her as a vendor on your wedding day, Christmas cards, birth, whatever it is. Consider yourself lucky to know her.

By chance, I met Rebecca on a flight out of RDU and I'm so glad I did. We signed up for Christmas minis this year and she was wonderful to work with. She made my husband and I feel at ease and she selected a beautiful, local setting. She even provided us (and many others) with props that created the perfect touch. Rebecca made us feel relaxed and put a smile on our face - which is very important to create the best photos. The results were amazing - each photograph was beautiful and it was honestly very difficult to choose one for a Christmas photo. I will definitely be seeking her out in 2024 for more photographs. Please use Rebecca when recording your special memories - you won't regret it!

My gift is my vulnerability, passion, and dedication. I believe every image has the power to evoke emotions that can't be expressed in words. I'm dedicated to creating imagery that speaks to your heart and soul, capturing the essence of a moment and evoking powerful emotions that will last a lifetime. I want to be your newest best friend behind the camera, capturing your honest love, the miracle of life, and your passion for life. Your truth is my mission.

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

My name is Morgan Elise, and I have had a camera in my hand since I was around nine years old. I specialize as a storyteller & documentarian photographer. Nothing brings me more joy than capturing moments you don’t necessarily see… but I do. I am constantly looking for those quiet moments, genuine smiles, laughs, hugs, kisses, etc. I want to tell YOUR story as authentically as I can. My work has heavily been influenced by my intuition and empathic gifts, history, vogue, literature- mostly Jane Austen, and poetry. Before every session, I create a story of poses for each client, carefully curated for each person’s personal story.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was looking for a wedding photographer, my main goal was to find a photographer that could capture the raw emotions of the day. I looked through HUNDREDS of photographers and Morgan stood out for the way she balanced artistry, emotion, and detail. Morgan captured the most stunning images of my wedding. I am so impressed by the way she was able to capture our personalities in the photos. Not only did we receive beautiful still portraits, but we received pictures that made us feel like we were reliving the moments. That’s exactly what you want from a wedding photographer. On top of the beautiful images, Morgan is a joy to work with. She is kind and uplifting, extremely professional, and turns the photos around extremely fast. Morgan was one of the best choices I made for our wedding and you should absolutely choose her too.

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!

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.

From the moment we first spoke with Danielle (at Moon Rising Photography), we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. Her communication style was both thoughtful and highly professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. She kept us on track the whole day, working quickly and efficiently while also keeping everything feeling natural and easy. The quality of her work is truly exceptional, with an artistic approach that captured a soft and romantic essence in the most beautiful way. We are overjoyed with the stunning photos that will allow us to cherish the memories of our wedding for a lifetime. Danielle exceeded our expectations in every way, and we cannot recommend her highly enough!

She really made our wedding vision come to life even with our short "microwedding" timeline, getting all my must have pinterest-inspo pictures. She did awesome helping us with posing and calling out small fixes (hair, hand placement, directions) to create the best photos. 1000% recommend her to any couples!!! She even sent us some sneak peak photos a few days after to hold over our excitement until the full album was complete. To say we're OBSESSED is an understatment.

You'll probably find me at your local thrift shop with my iced coffee in the dead of winter listening to gospel or rnb music in my ear while shopping for records and broken cameras. When i find spare time i play apex legends or attend creative events. my guilty pleasure is reality tv and crime documentaries.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough about Justina—she helped our wedding day run seamlessly! From the start, she was incredibly helpful and communicative, working closely with us to construct the perfect wedding day timeline. She even provided a detailed wedding guidebook and questionnaire, which helped us envision the exact vibe we wanted. On the big day, when we inevitably fell behind schedule, Justina handled it with such grace and adapted quickly. She adjusted effortlessly, stayed flexible, and kept everything moving. Even with less time for photos, she still managed to capture all the shots we had requested. Justina’s collaboration with her brother Anthony, who did our videography, was another highlight. Instead of coordinating between two separate vendors, we were able to meet with both of them together, ensuring that our wedding day vibe was beautifully reflected in both the photos and video. They both were extremely professional and helpful, in addition to providing creative ideas that helped bring our vision to life. What truly sets Justina apart is her talent and eye for candid shots that look and feel so natural. You can tell she cares deeply about the quality of her work. She got us a preview album within a week of the wedding, and my husband and I were so moved by the photos. We still cannot stop looking through them! If you want someone who will make your wedding photo dreams come true and help you feel comfortable and taken care of on our wedding day, look no further than Justina. We couldn’t be happier with our choice!

When I was looking for a photographer, I really wanted someone who could do video as well and thankfully Anthony offered both for a reasonable price. He was a great photographer and really put me at ease when things didn’t go quite the way they were supposed to. Anthony really knows how to make you feel beautiful on your wedding day! Even though it was “busy season,” his turnaround time for wedding pictures was fast! I really liked how he didn’t over edit our photos like some photographers do. Him and his videographer (I think his name was Davonte) really put in a lot of time and work to capture my wedding! If you choose him, you won’t be disappointed!!

Right Price Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. The photographer and her team were very prompt and timely with communication leading up to our big day, responding to emails and calls within a day or less. On the wedding day, they arrived on time and came prepared with a detailed timeline that we had collaborated on in advance.

The end results are beautiful photos that perfectly capture the joy and special moments of our wedding, all at a very reasonable price.

Lindsay and Nathan are an incredible team. From booking them two years ago, doing our engagement session, and now having gotten sneak peaks back from our wedding that was just 2 days ago, I’m completely blown away by how incredible they have been! Lindsay is a complete pro. Group photos flew by because she was so great at directing and wrangling everyone. I had multiple people comment on how she was EVERYWHERE non-stop at our wedding, doing an amazing job the whole time! I just know she got every picture I wanted and more, and with how gorgeous our sneak peaks turned out I know I’ll absolutely love them! She and Nathan were so on top of everything, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Not only that, she truly went above and beyond helping to safety pin a rip in my dress. The day was a whirlwind but Lindsay and Nathan made it so easy! I would hire them a million times over!

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.

Your culture, style, love languages, and family dynamic play a huge role in how I approach your wedding. This is why I always schedule a call prior to booking!

Josie is incredible, we had high expectations from all of the stellar reviews - but she absolutely exceeded those high expectations. We had a very small wedding and a relatively small budget but she worked with us to find a way to shoot our wedding within our budget. She made sure to meet with us twice before the wedding to make sure she had a good idea of what our expectations were and who each person in our party was. On the day of, she felt like a friend/guest. She is so lovely, bubbly and so genuinely passionate about capturing every moment of your special day. We knew we wanted a documentary style photographer, but she is truly talented in her eye for detail and being able to make your wedding photos look like stills from a movie. She was able to coordinate photos without having us posing for them and she is so good at making anyone feel comfortable in front of her camera. We were so happy we decided to book her even before we got all of our photos back. Now that we have seen them, we are just elated.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so lucky to find and connect with Kim for our wedding photos. Planning it for the 3rd time – yes, we are one of those pandemic couples – we were so nervous about having to find someone quickly that we liked. Pictures were one of our top priorities and we were very picky about achieving the right style. Kim hit it out of the park on all fronts. Not only is she ridiculously talented, but she was a breeze to work with from beginning to end. She is extremely kind, attentive, and accommodating. She offered us a last-minute engagement shoot so that we could meet her and to get us comfortable in front of the camera. This was so helpful for us and made shooting for the wedding much easier and relaxing. She also stayed longer than planned to get those few extra special shots walking around SoHo. When we saw our engagement photos, we knew we made the right decision. On the day of, it was important to us to incorporate our home, neighborhood, and adorable pup in our photos. Kim was super flexible and thoughtful of how to do this. She totally leaned in when I wanted to walk to Washington Sq Park for our first look, where we got the “free hugs” guy to take photos with us, then hopped into a yellow cab to the venue. Kim kept us moving and made the best use of the time we had, which was super helpful since we didn’t have a wedding coordinator. The whole day turned out to be perfect and Kim captured it all for us. Every person who has seen our proof book has said “how are you going to choose? They are all amazing…” and I couldn’t agree more! We can’t wait to work with her again.

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.

We’ve known Kaitlyn for a while and were so honored to have her capture our wedding events! She was there for the proposal, engagement shoot, rehearsal dinner, and the wedding day! Kaitlyn is so fun to be around and so incredibly talented! We really appreciated her “fly on the wall” approach so we could just enjoy ourselves and live in the moment without having to worry about posing. Looking forward to having her capture many more of our milestones in the future :)
