I'm a laid-back and fun-loving photographer based in Roanoke, Virginia. I specialize in capturing the joy and excitement of life's special moments, whether it's a wedding, a family session, or a milestone event.

Awarded Best of Zola
James is absolutely amazing! We hired James a little over a year ago for our wedding! We were not getting married in our hometown so we decided to find someone in the town would get married in! We had our Engagement session with James last year in June in Roanoke Virginia. We were nervous before going, because sometimes the first session with a new photographer can be a little uncomfortable. Ours was FAR from it! We had the absolute best time! We laughed a lot and James was so fun to work with! Not to mention the pictures we got back from it were absolutely incredible. I could not recommend James more! Before our wedding James kept in touch and up to date with everything! This helped ease my anxiety before our big day. James arrived ahead of schedule on our wedding day and got started immediately! He is by far our favorite photographer that we have worked with and we will definitely be making trips to Roanoke in the future just to book sessions with him because yes we love him that much! We got our wedding pictures back and they are absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for better! We highly recommend booking James! You will not be disappointed at all! He is simply the best!

  • Serves Sandston, VA for additional fees

Hello, and welcome! Nick here, and I first wanted to stay thank you for taking the time to check out my work, and I look forward to the opportunity to capture your wedding day! My approach to your wedding day coverage is more of a documentation of genuine moments between you, your partner, friends, and family. Specializing in a photojournalistic style, I'm on the hunt for those natural smiles, tears of joy, and most importantly, finding you and your partner lost in the moment. I also strive for a clean and timeless look, focusing on composition, and I'm not afraid to give direction when needed.

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Nick for all your photography needs! Nick was our photographer for both engagement photos and wedding and he did a fantastic job. The photos came back flawless and we were able to get them back in a very reasonable time frame. He worked within our busy schedule for photos and was super easy and prompt with communications. Nick (and his day of partner Becca) was professional and easy to work with and the joy and passion he has for photography certainly shows. We plan on using him for future needs.

Salt & Ivy was an absolute dream to work with. Highly communicative, professional, punctual, and absolute artists. From booking to receiving the photos, they were so amazing to work with. I (the bride) am typically very uncomfortable taking photographs. This was the first time in my life that I was actually at ease and having fun. 10/10 would and will book them again in the future for family/maternity photographs.

Julia Scarborough Photography

  • Fine art style

  • Serves Sandston, VA for additional fees

Someday, years from now, someone close to you will ask about your wedding day - someone that may not have been able to be there, or a new friend or family member who you have welcomed into your life. As you sit on your couch and reminisce while sipping on a cup of coffee, rather than just telling them about your wedding day - I want you to be able to show them. Photographs have an amazing ability to freeze special moments in time. I want to do that for you.

Julia was a complete joy to work with for our engagement photos and then wedding! From the day we met I knew my (then) fiancé and I would be able to relax and be comfortable in front of her camera. She was so much fun to work with and had us in beautiful but still comfortable poses/positions. Her and her husband shot our wedding and they were so patient throughout hectic family photos. We can't recommend Julia enough!!

I had the absolute honor of working with Brittany for a wedding where I was the DJ. I always feel that there are no vendors more important than the Photographer and DJ for a wedding. The DJ will help create memories while a great Photographer will capture them for the Newlyweds to enjoy them forever. Brittany was great to communicate with and she made the Bride and Groom feel at ease and having fun while capturing portraits. She also captured some amazing dancefloor shots once the party started. I highly recommend Brittany if your looking for a wedding photographer that can capture every aspect and detail of your wedding. From the ceremony to the sparkler send off, she’s there for you!

Molly Majher Photography

Timeless. Intimate. Organic. My name is Molly Majher (pronounced like "major") and I am a wedding photographer serving VA, WV, MD and more! I'm a wife, mom, and LOTR & HP fangirl. When you hire me as your wedding photographer you don't just get a person who shows up with a camera, but you get someone who you can be yourself around, who answers your questions, helps create your wedding day timeline, holds your umbrella when it rains and calms your nerves. I do all this while taking stunning photos for you to remember all the big and little moments of your wedding day.

I was blown away when I stumbled across Molly’s Instagram page 2 years ago, and even more blown away after receiving our own engagement and wedding galleries. Not only is she incredibly talented, she’s also incredibly kind, thoughtful, and fun. From the moment we met her all the way through to the wedding day, she was there for our questions and matching our excitement. Her calm, patient, caring personality is such a comfort on a busy wedding day and made the day go so smoothly. There are already so many things to think about when planning a wedding; trusting your vendors wholeheartedly makes such a difference and that is exactly how we felt about our wedding photos, we just knew they would be perfect and they were. Best decision we made, hands down!

With over 10 years of industry experience, my strengths clearly lie in wedding and portraiture photography. Whether you're a recently engaged couple looking for someone to preserve your journey from fiancés to newlyweds through photographs, an expectant Mama hoping to capture your maternity glow or simply wanting to document you and your loved ones during whatever special season of life you're in, I would love to hear from you, I specialize in all types of portraiture but I am renowned for my wedding and engagement photography above all else. Whatever your photo needs are, I would love to chat and find out if we're a good match.

Sam was our girl from the beginning. She encouraged our pups in our engagement photos and worked around their lack of being photogenic. She pushed us, comfortably, out of our comfort zone. She was found by my Maid of Honor on Instagram and I immediately knew her style was what I had been looking for. When it came to wedding day I was most excited to see not only our photographer, but a friend. She was supportive, easy to work with and guided us in the right direction when needed. She knocked out our photos in a timely manor while positioning and giving great direction as to where to move to make the picture look better (something that was important to me). I am happy to scream her name for recommendations from now on & return to her in the future!

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

Taliya gave us the absolute best wedding photography experience. She was extremely professional and quick to answer any questions at any point along the way. She made sure every detail was arranged before hand so there were 0 surprises along the way and day of. Not to mention that the photos turned out phenomenal. She was great at posing and framing to get the best shots and made sure that everything got pictured and captured from our special day. Would recommend 100%

I'm here for the relationships and memories that matter and to capture all of your real moments that make your life so amazing! Working with me is knowing your final product speaks to who you are as a couple (as well as gaining a friend for life). I'm not just your wedding photographer..I'm your forever photographer! Ready for your next step? Check out our packages and message me to chat and start planning!

Rachel and her team made our stressful and busy day absolutely wonderful, and now that we have our photos back, there is no denying that they were THE standout of all of those that we booked! The only thing that I would change is that she now has a new addition of a content creator that I have no doubt would be amazing! Our package included film and polaroids and Super 8 for Wedding Day and the night before. From a boudoir session in her amazing studio, a Welcome Dinner on a sailboat, different getting ready locations and all around our venue, each part was unique! Getting ready, first touch, the ceremony, cocktail hour, portraits, reception, and golden hour each have a unique different focus, which I absolutely love. The polaroids were an amazing touch, and the different types of film were such a vibe! I could not ask for more to have captured our memories and make them feel timeless! Of all of the research I had attempted to do to look for a photographer, Rachel was perfect and surpassed expectations! She and her team were flexible, experienced, professional, and have tremendous range. It was so evident that they put in work before the events to know what we were looking for. She even has great recommendations for other vendors and her connections show how well respected she is. Rachel also has a wonderful personality that seems to click with anyone. Rachel was wonderful to work with from the start. She had clear and consistent communication and it’s obvious that she is professional that loves what she does, and through our multiple sessions I had no doubt that she had our best interest in mind and was happy to be behind the camera and supporting us. The team was constantly multi-tasking, aware of what was going on, caused no concerns for us, but also always seemed to be in the right place at the right moment. She and her team were more than familiar with our timeline, what we wanted most out of the day, and needed no reminders, and as things will inevitably happen, they were quick to adjust with a smile. Time goes by so quickly during the events, and she and her team were always prepared and making what we had hoped and planned for happen! After our initial inquiry, Rachel responded quickly and we scheduled a video call, during which she was super engaged and attentive! We could tell that she really listened to what we shared we were looking for and seemed genuinely excited for what we were planning and happy to be a part of it. Her service guide and contract were clear and so were expectations. My husband and I could tell from the start that she not only had a great eye but had the business part of what she does down as well. There wasn’t a single instance during the period of time we worked together that I had doubts or felt on edge about our decision to go with her or that the end product from her team would be lacking. She checked in often and asked for a detailed questionnaire and mood board not only as a part of the inquiry, but also closer to the day which I loved as over months and months of planning things do shift and change. They did a great job of capturing candid moments and getting group shots. They were somehow able to let us enjoy the experience but also get those specific shots we’d requested. They were able to make each part of the day fun, memorable, and unique. We are so happy to say that we have traditional family portraits, candid, and even photos that look editorial!

Lizzie was one of my favorite vendors to work with and she truly made our wedding day better. We are delighted with how she captured our wedding, the scenery, and all the details and moments that you want to be able to look back on. Lizzie was always one step ahead of the program which was a huge benefit. She had great ideas for shots and her approach and personality kept us at ease during the planning process and throughout wedding day. Lizzie is not just an amazing photographer - she really is your hype woman, wedding day extraordinaire, and someone you will be happy to have at your side. People say you spend a significant amount of time with your photographer which proved to be true! We are so glad it was with Lizzie.

When we're not creating, you'll find us on the hunt for vintage treasures, sinking our toes into the sand (and missing our beloved cats), or enjoying quality time at home with our three adorable fur babies: Ellie, Lola, and Jax.

I recently had an engagement session done with Kanded, and it was everything I could have asked for! I had a very specific vision in mind, and Kiersten and Enrique nailed it. From helping pick a location, doing camera tricks to help achieve the look I wanted (think dreamy vintage fairytale)- they were so helpful and attentive every step of the way! An added bonus is that you’re getting two photographers for the price of one, so you can’t go wrong booking with them :)

Hi! I'm Erin. I've been in the photography business since 2008. My passion for capturing perfect moments grew immensely when my babies came along. I didn't want to miss a thing! One of the things I love most about weddings is that no two are alike. I am blessed to be able to experience each and every unique day. I am married to the most precious husband I could ever dream of. We have five children and lots of pets. I enjoy spending time with my family and pets, being outdoors in nature, exploring, reading, cooking, and rescuing animals.

Daniela Zapata Photography

  • Serves Sandston, VA for additional fees

Daniela Zapata Photography is dedicated to capturing joy in every frame, and love in every moment. The DZP wedding experience includes thoughtful timeline planning, stress-free posing, and professional guidance every step of the way. I did my job right if your grandkids fight over your wedding photos one day (in a loving way, of course).

We chose Daniela to photograph our wedding day – she was absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish! When we were deciding to book with her, she took time to understand our vision and make sure we were a good fit. Daniela came prepared and organized to every meeting, crafting our shot list and what we wanted to capture for our big day. Daniela took time to come to the rehearsal dinner and took fantastic candid photos. On the big day, Daniela and her second photographer Kranthi were so helpful – capturing getting ready and the big moments before during and after the ceremony. The photos turned out incredible – they captured our vision and our day perfectly. Daniela’s energy was also fantastic; she brought a bright and energetic vibe that made her a delight to work with. We would recommend Daniela for ANY event – she is a fantastic photographer and you will not regret choosing her.

I’m a zealous photographer who gets way too excited about sunsets and gorgeous venues & landscapes. The only thing that could ever make them better is YOU! It’s such a blast having the privilege of documenting weddings & elopements in beautiful places with beautiful people—especially when there’s golden light. I find great joy in providing vivid, exquisite, and timeless photos and videos that you can cherish for a lifetime!

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily captured incredible photos of a February wedding at our venue! We were so worried about some red mud areas from excavation work ruining some of their wedding photos & Emily insured that there was no red mud in any photos! That was extra work for her to do & she happily did that for her wedding couple & myself!! She goes above & beyond with her work. I love that she asked me, the owner of a new event space, what she could capture for me for advertising! That was so sweet of her. I gave her specifics & she delivered just that! It’s important to hire a professional photographer that listens to your vision. I can tell her heart is deeply invested in her photography. It isn’t just a job to her. Anyone that works with Emily will notice that! It’s refreshing to meet a hard worker with so much passion! Emily will not let you down!

We are Amy & Jackson Smith, a husband and wife team, who met through photography. We fell in love and got married in our own backyard right here in Charlottesville. We feel so fortunate to meet such genuine people and have the opportunity to tell their stories. Since 2014 we have shot over 150 weddings at more than 60 venues. We are based in Charlottesville, Virginia and love photographing weddings here as well as Richmond, Washington DC, and beyond.

My wife and I are beyond thrilled with the amazing photos Amy and Jackson from Smiths Photography took at our wedding in Florida! They did such an incredible job capturing all the special moments, and somehow they managed to capture the true personalities of each of our guests, too. Their talent is truly unmatched. The pictures are not just beautiful; they perfectly reflect the emotions and vibe of the day. Every shot is a work of art, and the quality is outstanding—vibrant colors and sharp details make each photo a real standout. Amy and Jackson were so professional yet so warm and friendly. They made sure to understand exactly what we wanted and then went above and beyond to deliver. They blended into the background while making everyone feel at ease, which really helped make the day even more special. We received our photos quickly and couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. We are incredibly grateful they were our photographers. If you’re looking for someone who captures not just the moments but the essence of your event, Smiths Photography is the way to go. Highly recommend them!
