HI there! My name is Natalie and I own Natalie Kathryn Photo! I love having the privilege to capture you on the best day of your life! I absolutely love weddings and being able to be there for every part of your day!

Wedding photos were such an important part in planning my wedding. I wanted to make sure I was investing in something high quality and would match the editing style my husband and I prefer. Natalie and her teams photos are just that. While she was who did all our final edits, she was not able to be present on my wedding day. Instead two girls who she works closely with did my wedding photos. I was a bit nervous about this at first but after working with Natalie I put full trust that her recommendations would not let me down. We are so thrilled with our sneak peaks and are so glad we trusted this team. Everyone was so great in making sure we got the posed photos we wanted but also capturing moments as they happened. Looking forward to receiving our full gallery. If anyone is looking for bright and romantic photos, look no further.

Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a wedding photographer based in West Virginia! I find happiness in my family, my church, warm summer light, capturing moments on film, sunrises and sunsets, and reminiscing on nostalgic moments. I have a passion for travel and am always happy to go somewhere new! I picked up my first camera in middle school (thanks, Grandpa) and never looked back. I began documenting my own life, as well as special moments for my friends & family, and I quickly fell in love with the gift of memories that photography provides.

I cannot recommend Maddie highly enough! From the first moments of our special day, her warm and calming presence immediately put us at ease. She was so kind and professional throughout the entire process, making what could have been a stressful portion of the day feel effortless and joyful. Her attention to detail and ability to capture genuine, heartfelt moments are truly unmatched. Every time I look back at my wedding photos, I’m transported to that magical day all over again. These photos are treasures I’ll cherish forever, and I’m so grateful to Maddie for preserving these memories so beautifully. If you’re looking for a photographer who is both talented and an absolute delight to work with, look no further! Congrats on your big day! I know Maddie will capture all the magic... you just go get married! ;)

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Hey there! My name is Savanah and I started photography full time back in 2021 and it has been absolutely amazing. I have met so many amazing couples, and helped capture the most important day of their lives. I’m very big on candid moments and in between of your wedding day, from the little looks from across the room, to grandpa breaking it down on the dance floor. My goal is to capture every single thing that makes YOUR day special.

Savanah Marie Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From the beginning, their communication was easy-going, clear, and consistent, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. On the day itself, Savanah was so considerate - it was freezing outside, which made it difficult to take photos, but she gave us ample breaks to warm up and recover from the unrelenting wind. She also made sure to capture all the poses I had requested. While we haven't received the full collection back yet, the sneak peeks we've seen are absolutely captivating and such high-quality. The photos beautifully capture our love story and the beauty of our wedding day. I have never felt more beautiful and my husband feels the exact same way. Savanah's work is truly of the highest value, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

Hi I'm Sam! Congratulations on your engagement! What an exciting chapter in your life!

I live for those candid, unscripted moments. When couples choose me to capture their big day, it’s a true honor—because once the celebration is over, the only thing left to relive those memories are your photos. Happy Planning ;)

Samantha did such a wonderful job on our wedding photos! She was very easy to work with, very quick to respond and helpful leading up to the wedding day, and made the whole actual day so much fun! We felt very at ease with her from the start. Everyone raved about her to my husband and I at the wedding and they still are to this day (4 months later!). She sent us the photos in the time frame she promised and they are absolutely beautiful! We couldn't have been more thrilled with her and plan on using her in the future for any other photography needs we may have. Thank you so much for making our day even more special, Samantha!

I'm Brooke! I'm a fine art photographer and videographer from Cincinnati, Ohio. I'm a mom, an artist, an adventurer and a go-getter and I absolutely love what I do! Capturing true emotion and delivering life-long memories is such a special and important role to take on. My work is classic and timeless. I got my start in shooting weddings when my sister basically forced me to shoot hers in 2018. She knew I was more than capable, and that I just needed a push. I haven't looked back since! She's still my biggest fan to this day.

Brooke was absolutely amazing every step of the way! I hired her for a boudoir shoot and the wedding and nothing about either was uncomfortable or stressful! She was even helpful when I needed recommendations on scheduling and vendor management (talk about going above and beyond!). When she arrived for the photos, I had all my "details" in a box and she jumped right in grabbing everything she needed to be the most efficient with the time she had. Her turnaround was very fast (about 4 weeks for photos, 6 weeks for video). She is honestly worth more than what she charges. Many of my friends and family have since done mini shoots with her because of how much they loved her personality and her results! Very friendly, professional, skilled, creative; I couldn't be more happy!

Past clients rave about the way I manage the wedding day, how helpful I am throughout the entire planning process, and the timely manner in which I deliver your images.

From the moment we connected with McKinsey and Gavin of McKinsey Murray Photography, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was consistently positive, friendly, and clearly committed to making our wedding day special. The quality of their work is truly exceptional - it shows their detail, passion, and ease of capturing the natural beauty of the celebration. McKinsey's patience was outstanding from day one, as she never rushed us but was happy to answer all of our questions. Both McKinsey and Gavin are wonderful at making everyone feel comfortable and look their best. We felt like we had friends taking care of us on our special day.

My name is Rabeeh and I'm new to ZOLA (you can see over 250 reviews on my Knot profile). When I first started taking pictures, I can honestly say that I didn't plan on becoming a wedding photographer. Most other photographers I socialized with would tell me how stressful and demanding wedding photography could be. Over a decade and numerous weddings later, I must strongly disagree! I want you to relax, breathe deeply, and experience every moment of your wedding with as little worry or concern as possible. A little about myself, I am an easy going guy who enjoys numerous hobbies ranging from collecting antique cameras to the art of bonsai.

We could not be happier with Rabeeh from Blue Dahlia Photography. The photos from our wedding were exactly what I had envisioned, and somehow even better! He perfectly captured the "spooky romantic" vibe we were going for, elevating it to a whole new level of magic. Rabeeh was an absolute joy to work with—friendly, calming, and incredibly professional. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, which is not an easy feat! On top of that, his creative input was invaluable. He suggested staging ideas I never would have thought of, and they turned out absolutely gorgeous. Every shot feels like a work of art! Choosing Rabeeh for our wedding photography was one of the best decisions we made. We are so grateful for his talent and can't recommend him highly enough. If you're looking for someone who can turn your vision into a reality, Rabeeh is your guy!

Intimate wedding photographer originally from the coast of VA, but now based in the North Georgia Mountains & love finding new adventures while exploring the outdoors. When I am not hidden behind my camera, you can find me hiking up a new mountain with my fur babies, eating tacos, or spending quality time with my little family.

I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions as well as the pure romance between two people on their wedding day.

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.

From the very beginning, Diana's communication style was open, professional, and timely - she was always checking in to make sure our day was going as we had imagined.

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!

Abigail Saalfrank Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Russell, KY for additional fees

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!

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.

My husband and I flew Golden Hour Images to Utah for our wedding and it was worth every single penny!! Golden Hour Images was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the very beginning, their communication was super consistent and they listened to everything we wanted. The photographer, Jenna, did an amazing job and just her sneak peaks had my husband, me and my family absolutely balling. She did the best job at capturing all our sensitive moments and made us feel and look absolutely beautiful throughout the day. Jenna listened to exactly what we wanted and exceeded all of our expectations - our wedding photos are stunning and we will cherish them forever. We cannot recommend Golden Hour Images enough!

Maurissa is such an amazing human being! We could not have asked for anyone better to be our wedding photographer! We knew we loved her the minute we met her for our engagement session last winter. She is very outgoing, friendly and honest! She has been very responsive in communication from the beginning. Maurissa goes above and beyond just being a photographer. She made sure everything was lined up, provided a timeline for all the vendors, made sure to get every "must have" photo. Maurissa also helped make sure we enjoyed OUR day. I was very worried about the timeline and being behind on everything but she made sure to remind me that there is no timeline and this was our special day so anything we wanted she would make happen and the guests would be okay entertaining themselves until we were ready! We also got our sneak peaks back already and are so obsessed and cannot wait to see the rest. Maurissa will definitely be showing up in our future because we love her!!
