Harvest Moon Photography

Portsmouth, VA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000

Hello!! I am Camille! I am passionate about preserving every moment from your special day - particularly those intimate moments of togetherness amid the crazy! ❤️ I am an introvert and more on the quiet side, but I can wrangle a crowd if I need to. 😉 If you like goofy comedies, folk and pop music, and loving people how Jesus does, we'll get along just perfectly! I accept everyone and take nothing too seriously! I prefer to capture everyone in sweet and candid looking moments rather than being traditionally posed but I do a bit of both! I would love to get to know you and your future spouse - just send me a message any time!

Awarded Best of Zola
Harvest Moon Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Camille was fast to respond, accommodating to our needs, and always maintained a positive and excited energy. Her communication style was just what we were looking for - she made the whole process feel seamless and stress-free. The quality of her work is truly flawless, with a beautiful, candid, and dreamy aesthetic that captured all the little moments we wanted to remember. Camille made sure I got everything I wanted and more out of my photos. The photo I cherish most to this day isn’t even of my husband and I. My grandfather recently passed away and the photo I cherish most is of him and my littlest sister, dancing together alone on the dance floor. It is a photo I hold dear to me and will cherish always. Camille is an incredibly talented and accommodating photographer, and we are so grateful to have had her be a part of our special day. We have already decided she is the only photographer we want to work with going forward to capture all of the special moments in our lives.

My excited, caring and spunky with a side of ‘hell yeah’ personality makes people feel comfortable, protected and loved. I meet people, hug them within seconds and it’s not awkward. Also, catch me slingin' jokes and dancing while I work or just on a Tuesday. I started my business three years ago, since then I've captured 102 weddings and over 200 couples, I can't image doing anything else! I’m married to Alex, love of my life, cat-doggy daddy, and muse. We fell in love after I called him a loser the moment we met. Since then we've lived in Hawaii, traveled the world and added two fur babies!

The ladies at this company are simply amazing!! My now husband I are not photogenic people and are typically not comfortable being in front of the camera, but Danielle and Ashley made us feel so comfortable and we had so much fun doing it! We have many branches to our family and the photos ran seamlessly and were quicker than I expected! I am obsessed with the preview photos we have gotten so far and can’t wait to see the full album!

If you don't know what DJ to book for your wedding, please look no further! DJ Karizma was the first vendor I booked after the venue because I really valued the experience of the music, reception, and someone that is an amazing MC at getting the guests pumped, hooked and controlling a room for your timeline of events. I can say our guests and other vendors at the venue said this was the one of BEST wedding receptions they've been too because of DJ Karizma. We were literally dancing and screaming the whole time and I never left the dancefloor once reception started. (Still recovering to get my voice back). If you have a type of vibe that you are going for for your wedding, he will listen with all ears and do just that. If I could give 11/10 stars would!!

I am obsessed with Tiffany! She photographed our destination elopement and easily was one of the highlights of our day. She was flexible, knowledgeable, and helped us plan out how we wanted our special day to go. When our initial plans were rained out, she was quick to assist with problem solving and just be down for the adventure which made the whole process stress-free. My husband and I have never been the types to be comfortable in front of the camera, but she made the session fun and the product is some truly stunning photographs. Since our elopement, Tiffany has become our go-to photographer. She has done couples, maternity, and family portraits for various loved ones and is always a pleasure to work with. She’s great at working with everyone from the oldest to the youngest of our family, the most stoic to the most rambunctious. She’s amazing at digging out those authentic smiles and making you feel at ease. She’s professional, creative, and just a genuinely kind human. I recommend her to everyone.

We absolutely loved working with Bryauna and Jamar at Moments for Life Visuals. From booking our initial consultation to giving updates on wedding timelines to following up post wedding, they were responsive and easy to get in touch with. Jamar showed up right on time on our wedding day and we felt really comfortable with him around. He managed to capture the entire vibe of the day from the big moments to the little details. We were really on the fence about whether or not the cost of a videographer would be worth it since we already booked a photographer. Moments for Life had packages that fit with our budget and we’re so glad we booked them. Photos are great, but the videos we got are so full of life and are truly magical. If you’re on the fence about hiring a videographer - DO IT! We also really appreciated that Moments for Life gave us the raw footage of our ceremony, reception speeches, dancing, and cake cutting.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where do we even begin? Choosing Dakotah as our photographer was hands down the best investment we made for our wedding. From our very first engagement shoot in the spring, she absolutely wowed us. She made us look and feel incredible — we’ve never felt more gorgeous or more like ourselves. We still look at those photos every single day and can’t get over how stunning they are. When the wedding day came (complete with rain and all!), Dakotah, Jim, and Anderson rolled with every twist and turn with total grace and humor. They made the entire day feel effortless. Dakotah and Jim are warm, funny, and make everyone around them feel comfortable and confident — including all of our guests. Anderson was amazing as the second photographer, helping capture every detail and moment we might have missed. The way this team works together is seamless. Dakotah’s direction and creativity are unmatched, and Jim’s presence behind the camera adds so much calm and fun to the day. We could truly feel how much they care about their couples — they listen, they adapt, and they help with absolutely everything. What started as a vendor relationship has truly turned into a friendship. I’ve never been more excited to get photos or messages from someone because I know whatever Dakotah and Jim create is going to be magic. Every single time, they blow us away. If you’re debating whether to book them, don’t wait another second — invest in them. You will not regret it. They are simply the best, and we cannot recommend them enough.

We first worked with her for our engagement session, and the results were absolutely stunning — she captured us so naturally and beautifully that we knew instantly she was the perfect choice for our wedding. On a personal note, I also booked a boudoir session with her as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day.

I cannot imagine our day without the CRC team! We utilized coordination services for the last 4 months and I am SO thankful we had this incredible team. Jenna was always quick to respond and anticipated our needs. Jenna had a form to organize all of our thoughts and worked out the details to mean fewer vendor meetings on our end. She worked seamlessly with our vendors who continuously complimented her to my husband and I. Our guests have told us it was the most organized wedding they have ever been to! This team is clearly full of incredibly organized, detail-oriented, and, most importantly, kindhearted people who made it clear they were there for us and excited for us! Any fires that may have happened, Jenna put out without me even knowing.

We hired Paula and Samantha pretty down to the wire of our wedding, but they immediately jumped in! We contacted them on Friday, and they had our proposal ready by Monday! Our flowers fit our vibe perfectly: I wanted something to pull from the venue's brick, but not look too "autumny" for our January wedding, and they nailed it! They look and feel like "regular" flowers, but they'll last forever and have so far held up perfectly! We're gifting a number of our pieces to our mothers and grandmothers as keepsakes from our amazing day, while saving the rest to display around our house! We're so happy to have such beautiful mementoes to remember it by!
