Brett Seay Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Pickens, SC

I want to be that friend with a camera, or that family member who happens to take pictures. I want to take a seat in your life, from the time I photograph your wedding to a few years down the road photographing your family. Every moment, every smile, every joyous occasion, and even the hard times, I want to photograph that story; your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not say enough great things about this incredible woman! She is kind, funny, and scary good at her job! You would have thought she had 5-6 shooters at the event with the amount of photos she was able to get! We used her for our engagement and wedding and everything was perfect. My husband and I are not big picture takers and Brett was able to make us feel comfortable and get Austin out of his shell! I will recommend Brett to anyone in need of a fun, energetic photographer and she will be my first call if I ever need one again! I can't even begin the count the number of complements I received from guests regarding her! She was also the first vendor we booked -- she helped us with useful advice on other vendors and was just heavenly throughout the entire processes! I am obsessed with her 3

Terrell Martin Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Pickens, SC

My name is Terrell Martin, and I am based in upstate SC. I have always enjoyed photography because it is the one way I am able to seemingly pause time, and capture a moment that is sure to only happen once. These moments are what make the memories you will one day cherish and share with your loved ones. When I take photographs, I’m not merely thinking about the “here and now.” I’m imagining generations down the the road being told your story through snapshots. This is why I strive to create timeless images. I prefer a style that is true to color, making every attempt to avoid trendy edits that won’t age well.

How do I even begin to express how incredible Terrell was at capturing the most perfect moments of my wedding! He was down for anything and delivered above and beyond what I could have asked for! Hire Terrell if you want someone with an incredible eye for the room's energy, the best hype man, and a thoughtful professional! I am beyond happy with the results!!

They were constantly checking in with us throughout the reception to make sure we were getting all the shots we wanted.

On top of that they were very adorable and always so easy to work with and understanding. I could honestly keep going on and on about how wonderful they are personality wise and work wise.

I chose not to have a videographer for my wedding, and had it covered only by photography. I sit here now, barely two weeks out from my wedding, already enjoying my entire wedding photo gallery from these amazing photographers that captured every detail as if they were using video recorders instead! Not only did they guarentee quick turn around on my photos (I think their words were "before you're back from your honeymoon") but the quality of work speaks for itself in the photos. They were such an joy to work with- often splitting up to cover ground and their easy banter with each other puts you right at ease when they're pointing those big cameras at you. I will never be able to thank them enough for making our day so special, and I'll enjoy it with their photos for the rest of our days.

As a long time wedding and elopement photographer, I am passionate about my couples enjoying and being present on their wedding day. I take only a handful of wedding clients a year so that I stay fresh and excited. I usually shoot about 30% classic portraiture and 70% lifestyle/photo documentary. I like to tell the story through movement and candid photos, while also taking time to create striking and timeless portraits. I edit all my photos in black and white and color, with a film finish.

I loved working with Helen Joy, and I highly recommend her for any event. Her wedding photography was lovely, she did a great job getting the ‘formal’ portraits of family and the bridal party. But my favorite pictures were the candid moments I didn’t think to capture, she has an eye for special moments that I didn’t recognize at the time but are now my favorite pictures.

My love for photography is my passion.

Wedding photography is not for everyone, but it's for me! I love that challenge. Bring it on!

She parties right with you, your family and your friends on the dance floor to get those super fun, amazing photos that will bring back the most treasured memories of your day. And she'll even do all that with a broken toe. Legitimately, she showed up to our rehearsal dinner/wedding and was on her feet the entire time like nothing was different, all while wearing a boot. If that isn't commitment and dedication, I don't really know what is. My husband and I hired Andrea to be our photographer after I came across her both at a wedding expo. Not only did she have the most stunning and artistic photos (which drew me closer to the booth in the first place) her aura and authentic sweetness made me determined to convince my then-fiancé that she was "the one", and boy was I right. Our epic engagement session included three locations and outfit changes, adventure, lots of fun and bonding. Andrea was great at making us comfortable with getting our picture taken and made me feel like we were working with a close friend. The results of our engagement photos... in a word? STUNNING. Friends of ours were amazed at how Andrea was able to fully capture our love. I also have to mention how wonderful Andrea was during the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused us to push back our wedding twice. Her flexibility and support truly made me feel so much better during a time that I didn't think it could get any worse. As for the photos from our rehearsal dinner and wedding… they are EVERYTHING. Andrea’s artistry resulted in absolutely beautiful images; even more beautiful than we already knew to expect from our experience from our engagement session. You can absolutely tell this is Andrea's passion. She takes her craft seriously, and even does continuing education to get the latest and greatest photography techniques. We consider ourselves very very fortunate to have her to document our special day, but even more lucky to just know her. Her aura is a whole vibe that you must have around you. As my now-husband says, Andrea is a "beast" with a camera. She's also a beautiful soul, and that just puts her over the top for us

We easily chose Shack Photo and Film for our wedding day. Their communication style was open, continuous, kind, and mindful throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was superior, first-rate, excellent, and of the highest quality - truly exemplary. They captured our wedding day beautifully on both video and photography, and made my husband, who is not a fan of photos, feel so comfortable. Their documentary style allowed us to revisit the genuine, authentic moments that we will forever hold dearly. We are so grateful to Shack Photo and Film for helping to make our special day perfect.

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.

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.

Amanda’s work speaks for itself. Her photography isn’t just a snapshot in time - she creates true art. She’s also super calm and easy going (a major plus on what can be a hectic day). From her portrait and group shots, to shots during the wedding, to still life shots of the cake, rings, or outfits, to journalistic style shots of the reception, she captures it all with a beautiful eye. What I love most is that her style is unique, with such stunning use of light and shadow. Her photography was easily the best thing we spent money on for our wedding. I highly recommend Amanda Summerlin Photography.

Shayla took amazing photos! I normally hate getting my picture taken but Shayla not only made it fun but also knew how to help me find my confidence. We had more of a "halloween" wedding and Shayla was all for it. We will use Shayla again for family photos when that time comes. We highly recommend Shayla. She communicated from the time we decided to have her as our photographer and even after our wedding day. She went over and beyond for our wedding. She even helped me prior to our big day.
