JayLynn was the absolute BEST day of coordinator we could have asked for on our big day! She was so so helpful! She came to our hotel room to pick up the decor and when she arrived the first thing she said was “do you need anything?! What can I do for you?”. She created the perfect timeline for the day and sent it out to all of our vendors so the day went smoothly. She took the extra flowers we had and I told her “do with these what you will” and she used them perfectly! We had a memorial chair for my husbands parents who had passed and she put the flowers there as well as on our cake! I was so impressed with how she used the flowers. The venue was set up exactly how I wanted and it was even more stunning than I expected. JayLynn was on time to pick up the decor and I never once had to stress about her or the set up. I truly did not have to stress at all on our big day and it meant the world to me. All night JayLynn was helping me with either carrying my train, helping me in the bathroom when needed, and even coming up and asking if there was anything I needed. She helped my maid of honor bustle my dress and change my shoes for the reception. At the end of the night JayLynn brought all of our decor back to the hotel for us!! She ended up staying in the same hotel and I’m so so glad she did because I’m sure she had a super busy day and we didn’t want her to drive home from Frisco at midnight. JayLynn was such a sweetheart and made everything run so smoothly. There was not a second in our day that wasn’t smooth and that is because of HER!! We had the absolute best day of our lives and we know that it wouldn’t have been possible without all of her help. JayLynn, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your hard work and your commitment to making our day perfect! We appreciate you and the work you do SO MUCH!! I know that I probably missed so many of the things she did for us because she did it all but we are forever grateful for her and her help!

With over 20+ years of photography experience, capturing life's smallest and biggest moments has been a passion of mine. Being able to encapsulate these candid moments is such a privilege; one that we don't take lightly!

We had an amazing experience working with Jenn, owner of Symula Media Group. From our engagement shoot, to our wedding day, Jenn was professional, personable, easy to work with, and very communicative during the process. She also has a fun, cool personality that put us at ease(being in photos can feel SO AWKWARD) and had my photo-shy husband saying "wow, she was a great find!"(direct quote). On to the quality of her work: Our photos for our engagement shoot and wedding turned out beautifully. Jenn took in to consideration the types of shots we were looking for, and checked in with us to make sure our visions remained aligned. She is skilled at her craft and delivered magazine worthy shots -- from posed family photos, to capturing the most precious candid moments between us, our family, and our friends. Seriously, she was like a ninja the way she stealthily put herself exactly where the moments were happening. I cannot say enough good things about Jenn and her company Symula Media Group! You won't be disappointed if you book with her!

BPP Content was nothing short of spectacular. I worked directly with Natasha, and she carefully crafted the perfect reels and captured our entire day while remaining discreet, unobtrusive, adaptable, and artistic, creating the perfect record of our wedding day. The week before the wedding, we went over certain details and the timeline of our wedding. On the day of the wedding, she knew exactly what was going on and worked seamlessly with our photographer to capture the perfect moments. Our day was filled with so many events, such as the first look, ceremony, family portraits, tea ceremony, and boba bar. She captured all of it! Not only did she curate the perfect stories during each of these events, but she also gave us the raw footage for all of them. I know this doesn't mean much to some people, but it's another way to look at different vantage points of all our guests, which we thoroughly enjoyed watching. Additionally, Natasha had our reels done within 48 hours after our wedding! Talk about a quick turnaround with high-quality production! Her attention to detail was perfect, as she captured our authentic moments in real-time. We loved BPP Content and Natasha for all their hard work and are so happy to have worked with them!

These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

Tab and Kate are AMAZING to work with! I was a bride on a budget and their A La Carte option was absolutely perfect for us. They were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable not only about flowers and overall wedding ascetic but also went as far as providing additional wedding planning advice during our first consultation. They provided us with a beautiful lookbook and an incredibly detailed and price-transparent quote. Planning a wedding as we all know is not an easy task, but Atlanta Flower Company made this piece of the process SO easy. We had our last consultation and they were incredibly helpful with guiding and updating a few of the design and floral pieces, then was extremely flexible with our pick up and drop off arrangements for my bridesmaid to grab the flowers for us the day of the wedding. When I saw the flowers I audibly gasped and cried! They were absolutely STUNNING and so much more beautiful than I could have ever imagined!

Leah photographed our wedding at my family's property in Napa Valley, June 2024. Leah took lots of time to scope out the location and seemed to be absolutely *everywhere* during the wedding, at all the right moments. I didn't have to call her over once, because she was already there. She captured the emotions of the day, the little moments, the big moments, and made our day look like the fairytale wedding that it felt like. Once we got the photo gallery back (so quickly!) we relived the day all over again. We were tearing up and laughing at all the photos. I felt like I was looking at photos from a Brides magazine, but it was me! Another thing I'll mention is that Leah gives direction in a kind, calm and encouraging way. My husband is not too confident in photos and he felt SO comfortable posing with her there, and loves his photos too! I felt like she could guide me into more flattering poses when I felt uncertain about my angles. I love Leah and her work and would recommend her to anyone!

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.

Choosing to work with me earns you more than just a photographer; you get a hype-girl, a dress fluffer, a confidant and a new best friend.

There is not enough good things we can say about Sarah! From day 1, she had great communication before the proposal while deciding the perfect location and how we would meet up with her. She executed flawlessly and I never saw her until the ring was on my finger even though she followed us for a bit before the big moment. She made us feel so comfortable for the photoshoot after and was willing to go to a few different spots with us all while carrying all of our stuff so it wouldn’t be in our pockets for the pictures. We received the sneak peeks the next day and were blown away with how well they turned out, she nailed it!! She got the big “I do” moment which was most important and then captured so many other sweet moments right before and after that I will forever be so grateful we can relive because of her photos. The best thing about her is that you can feel the joy coming out of the screen when you look through her galleries. So many people have raved over how well our engagement photos turned out.

Kristen Caputo Weddings & Events is a wedding planning service that curates elevated events for memories that will last a lifetime! We offer everything from full-service planning packages to wedding coordination packages.

Kristen and her team were amazing- her services were the most critical part of our wedding! She was so organized and on top of everything for the wedding, as soon as I hired her I felt so much more at ease with the planning process. I did a pretty much DIY wedding, my venue did not provide anything other than the venue and furniture, therefore, I had a lot of moving parts to my wedding and multiple vendors involved. Kristen took all the chaotic information I provided and streamlined the whole thing. She organized everything for me into a very easy to follow timeline and then was in constant communication with all the vendors. My regular hair dresser is the hair dresser I used for my wedding and she and I are friends. She told me that from a vendor's perspective, Kristen was the best coordinator/planner she had ever worked with. She was very impressed with her constant communication and all of the details she thought of in preparation of the event. Kristen and her team took my vision and made it a reality which was no easy task but she got it done. This was hands down the most positive experience I had in wedding planning/preparation and I would highly recommend Kristen for any planning needs!

Full disclosure: I did not hire Marta for my wedding- but she went above and beyond for us even after when we were clear that we wouldn't be clients. DETAILS: We're getting married in NC and for some reason Zola listed her as a local planner which I didn't realize. Ten minutes into the call, we realized she wasn't a fit for our needs. Instead of ending the call right there, Marta gave us a some incredible advice about the questions we should be asking planners when we're hiring them and other tips-- this is all after we made it clear that we weren't a match. She was extremely communicative, transparent, warm, and efficient-- truly everything we could hope for in a planner.

Ayla knew exactly when to step-in, how and handled so much for us. We knew we’d both get pretty drunk so we counted on her to handle pretty much everything day-of. When I tell you she knew when to feed us, who to talk to, how to set things up….our day was absolutely perfect! We also had no idea where our vow books ended up (that was before we started drinking) and she mailed them to us, which was such a sweet surprise. Ayla and her team were great!

Erica and Neil are simply amazing. I could not recommend them more, I love that they really care about the people they are working with and they are so easy to work with. Erica was my go to girl for so many questions and she was so helpful, not sure I could have done this without her. They were both so great helping us figure out a timeline for the day and making sure we got all of the pictures we wanted. On our wedding day when things got stressful or we were running late, they had a way of making it less stressful. They made pictures fun and we loved working with them - they are just the kind of people you want to be around, especially on your wedding day!

What if your photos actually looked and felt like you? 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.

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer! From our initial meeting, Danielle took the time to really get to know us and understand our vision for the day. She arrived early and jumped into action, ensuring she didn’t miss a single moment. She kept us on track all day, and liaised seamlessly with the venue staff. It really felt like we had friends helping us through the day, having our backs and making sure our vision was realized. The photos are absolutely stunning and truly capture the joy of our celebration. We’re so grateful for Danielle’s professionalism and talent! Book her!

Fueled by equal parts sweet tea and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

I’ve worked with Melinda twice now. My husband and I wanted to surprise his mom with family portraits since she’s been begging for this for years. She didn’t want to be in them, but wanted all her kids and grandchildren to take photos together. She was wonderful with the kids and showed so much patience. The photos turned out beautifully! Our second session was on a cliff that we hiked a short hike to have these gorgeous photos taken on. It was the fall (right when the leaves where changing) and it was just perfect! These photos were to makeup for our wedding day photos that we didn’t get to have done because we were lead to believe that my husband’s uncle would be taking them for us, which really didn’t happen as planned. We told Melinda what type of backdrop we wanted and she hit the nail on the head with the location she chose for us. She worked with our tough schedule and showed up on time. We didn’t know anything about posing for photos and wanted them to look very natural, she told us where to move, stand, etc. and the photos turned out just perfect! We had so many compliments on them! I’m a bit nervous when people “stare” at me. Makes me feel weird but I didn’t feel that way with her, she honestly made us feel so very comfortable. I didn’t feel as if she was judging me and she didn’t make me feel like I was doing everything wrong. She was so very patient. She’d ask if she could touch my arm to move me, she’d say can I move this strand of hair hanging in front of your face, and etc. she was just very helpful all around. My husband at the time had a mole on his head, he was very self conscious about it. He asked her to remove it if she could from any photos it shows in and she did exactly that and you could never even tell it was there! When we need photos again we will definitely work with her. She’s such a blessing to work with. Melinda is very reliable, professional, down to earth, knowledgeable, punctual, patient, and friendly!

From the moment we booked Shelby Phillips Photography, the communication was excellent, easy, and seamless. Shelby and her team have an incredibly creative and artistic eye, capturing all the special candid moments of our wedding day(s).

We also have recommended her for our family's engagements and weddings, and we all couldn't be happier with the results of everything she has done. I would hire her to photograph anything, at any time, because I know that no matter what, the results will be stunning. Even if it was just a picture of a garbage can, I promise you that garbage would look high key incredible.

Since 2013, I’ve been capturing love stories in a way that’s timeless, authentic, and uniquely yours. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a big celebration, my approach blends classic elegance with photojournalistic storytelling. More than photography, it's about building trust and celebrating love in all its beautiful forms—honoring every culture, story, and connection.

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!

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!
