Nicole Sandercock Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Rutherfordton, NC for additional fees

I believe in true love and the beauty of candid laughter. There's more to it than clicking a button -- you need an eye for artistry, moments, and equilibrium. I love people and I love stories, and wedding photography is the perfect blend of those two elements. I want you to feel like I'm a friendly face coming along on an adventure with you, not paparazzi getting in your way. My journey into wedding photography started right after I got married, and I've documented 100+ weddings since then.

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Nicole as our photographer was easily one of the best choices we made for our wedding day! She was so helpful during our wedding planning process and worked with us to create a great day-of timeline. On our wedding day, we never felt rushed. Nicole was such a calming person to have around. We felt so natural during all of our photos, and we loved that our wedding day felt like a celebration -- not a photoshoot. We were so excited about how quickly Nicole sent us our sneak peek photos. They are INCREDIBLE! We love showing them to friends and family. It was really important for our wedding photos to capture the beauty of the Catholic wedding Mass and to showcase the true colors of the day. Nicole knocked both of those things out of the park. We truly can't recommend her enough!!

After speaking with Ashley, she was extremely pleasant, did not fail to put a smile on everyone's faces, and her warm, bubbly personality put everyone at ease during what could be a very stressful day for some.

Hey there!! We're Sarah & Ben a mother-son photography team traveling throughout New England and the U.S., capturing stunning weddings, elopements, & engagements along the way. We’re lucky enough to witness countless beautiful moments that leave us in awe. From the quiet glances to the laughter-filled celebrations, we aim to capture it all with a sense of ease that reflects the genuine connections between you and your loved ones.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to start? During the first phone call with Sarah, even after we told her we were interviewing multiple photographers, she offered us pointers and advice to consider when choosing our photographer, not her as the photographer, but OUR photographer. From the beginning she wanted to ensure that we had the best fit for us. She went above and beyond by coming to our venues prior to the wedding to "get the feel" of what she would need to capture the perfect moments. On the day of the wedding (when it was pure chaos) she adapted quickly, efficiently and went with the flow. Sarah and Ben are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and have a wonderful sense of humor. All of the photos they took are amazing and very unique. The emotion captured by each photo brought us to laughter or tears, but both in a good way! We could not have picked a better photographer, and we cannot thank them enough for all they did!

Hi, its Jessica, I am a couples and wedding photographer based in Virginia. My clients are so special that they find themselves a friend for a lifetime, not just another wedding vendor.

Jessica is AMAZING, we hired her for our wedding and also did the engagement pictures with her. I am brazilian and since she is also I thought maybe my now husband would be a little uncomfortable taking the pictures but no way, not with Jessica, the way she makes everything seems so smooth and simple makes you think you are spending a good afternoon with a friend! And her work is definitely THE BEST! On my wedding day she managed to speak both languages with my family and my guests and took so much amazing pictures that now is hard to choose! Everyone loved her job and she sent the pictures so fast that I was really impressed! From now one my dates for events with pictures will depend on her agenda. I can’t wait for the next sessions of her capturing our love!

Raven Shutley

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Rutherfordton, NC for additional fees

Wedding photographs should honor your relationship and highlight your unique connection. More than simple validation, they are a declaration that love knows no boundaries. So, it’s important to find a photographer who understands the full scope of your story, someone who sees both the broader significance and its personal meaning. And someone who captures it all through unforgettable photographs. When it comes to photography, it takes a non-traditional perspective to look beyond the obvious and capture the hidden bits of who you two really are.

Raven is, in a word, amazing! She worked with us to craft a photo package that served our needs on our wedding day. She made the actual process of photography easy and fun, and the photos we received of our wedding were just phenomenal. I'd recommend Raven to anyone who's looking for a photographer to support you in your wedding journey, no matter how you see that playing out.
