Hi! I'm Victoria, an event planner and designer with a passion for crafting magical moments.

Heather Hughes Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Smithfield, VA

A former newspaper photographer & editor, I truly love to capture authentic moments as they happen - commonly known as lifestyle photography. My favorite photos are storytelling moments filled with happiness & love. I'm also a sucker for gorgeous light, sunsets, trees, and ALL naturally beautiful outdoor settings. I'm a bit of a romantic and LOVE catching those in between funny moments when no one thinks I'm watching. My Client for Life program evolved when so many couples came back to me for newborn and family sessions - I LOVE building that relationship and becoming "their" photographer for life.

Heather Hughes gave us the most incredible photos and was a lifesaver at our wedding! Her pictures are downright magical, and she stepped in to save the day when our timeline went awry and our venue coordinator dropped the ball. She was such a joy to have around on our special day, and did a fantastic job of keeping everyone on track while also knowing when to let the schedule flex. She was an invaluable part of our wedding and we are so excited to use her for our soon-to-come newborn photos!

On the day of my wedding, she made me feel absolutely beautiful. My make up was so beautiful that I did not want to take it off! I actually kept it on overnight. My make up was able to last from morning through morning. It stayed in place and looked incredible through a ton of sweating, rain and sun (yes, it was sunny and raining). Chelsea and her team made not only myself, but my bridesmaids feel and look their absolute best. She paid very close attention to detail, she was very prompt with time, and made sure that we all loved our looks. I would absolutely hire Chelsea Marie for any event where I need to look amazing. She has so much experience with different skin types, textures, features etc. She WILL make you feel like a million dollars.

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Serves Smithfield, VA

Hey there! Thanks so much for checking out! my page. I’m a couples and wedding photographer based out of Virginia Beach, Va but you can take me anywhere(: I’ve always loved taking photos and editing them, but couples have just completely stolen my heart. Being able to get creative and meet so many amazing couples all while giving you something you’ll have forever is what makes it so fun! Feel free to visit my instagram or website to see my most up to date sessions and learn more about me! (:

The first thing that caught my eye with Kyndall was her editing style. I mean when picking a photographer that’s pretty important to love! Her style was so unique and almost ethereal. I just got the best vibes from everything she had online and immediately I knew I wanted her for our wedding. From the moment we decided on Kyndall, I was impressed by her efficient and thorough communication and the entire process of booking. I loved being able to pay through her portal and have reminders throughout the year. She was always available if I had a small question or needed advice on something during my planning. Then the real magic happened day-of! Her and Bre were a highlight of my day truly. They were simply FUN. Immaculate vibes, we all fell into things very easily. It was a very blustery day and I wasn’t feeling super pretty- just kind of disheveled honestly. Despite the weather they both made me feel beautiful, comfortable, confident, and at ease, and I know my friends and family would agree. Her work was exactly what I was hoping for to capture our special day, and her personality was a bonus. Kyndall was genuinely fun to work with, and I cannot wait to see the final results. I’ve seen the sneak peaks (which I got literally less than 12 hours after our wedding!!) and I can say without a doubt hiring Kyndall was truly the best decision we made in selecting vendors. I would highly recommend her services to any couple planning their wedding.

Photography has always been my way of connecting with the world, but weddings hold a special place in my heart. There's something truly magical about experiencing every emotion of the day alongside the couple - the joy, the happy tears, the excitement, and even the quiet, heartfelt moments in between. Being entrusted to capture those emotions is an honor I don't take lightly. With each click of the shutter, I'm not just taking a photo - I'm preserving a piece of your story, one that you can cherish forever.

Lauren Ashlie Imagery provided amazing photography for our wedding day. Her communication was efficient, clear, and prompt throughout the entire process making it so easy to work with her. The quality of her work was incredible - the photos are so natural and detailed, capturing all the special moments beautifully. She also sent the sneak peak photos, along with the full portfolio, in a timely manner. Lauren was able to make me feel so relaxed and beautiful in front of the camera.

As your wedding photographer I understand the journey you have been on that leads you to your wedding day. I know about the unique twists and turns of your story as a couple and how much this celebration means to you both. I know these things because I am invested in you as a couple just as you are investing in me as your photographer. As you vow to be true to each other for the rest of your lives, I promise to capture you in a timeless and romantic way that creates heirloom quality images that eventually turn into your legacy.

Meridith Bright is an exceptional photographer. You would be absolutely blessed to have her by your side at any event. Meridith photographed my wedding (10/14/2023), welcome party (10/13/2023), and a recent family photography session (9/2023). I could not have been happier with her work, professionalism, and vibe. Due to budget reasons, we were unable to have a second shooter, but she was EVERYWHERE. Every single time I looked up, there was Meredith. It rained on my wedding day, which limited our availability for photo locations - no big deal, she improvised and came up with excellent second choices. When I stepped outside the tent to take selfies with my girlfriends in the rain, all of a sudden there was Meridith capturing our moment as well. I’m a photography addict and I had some out of the box ideas that Meridith admittedly didn't have experience with. I love that she was open and honest about not having done this type of photo before and I loved her willingness to try out the photo styles. One of these requested photos was in my sneak peak, and it was to die for, perfect. Two days before my wedding, my mother surprised me with a list of photos she would be requiring for the day. I thought my "official" timeline by my planner wasn't going to be able to accommodate this. Meridith took charge. She went back and forth with me multiple times over the next 48hrs and created a new timeline to ensure we could get it done. Lastly, after all that back and forth, I was insanely late the day of my wedding. There was a bit of drama (surprise lol), and I did not complete my hair and makeup until over an hour after I was supposed to. Oh my goodness was Meridith wonderful in this situation. She never flustered or got angry with me. Instead, she lovingly kept reminding me of the importance to have fun and enjoy this time. So while I was freaking out at the potential of ruining everything, Meridith was go with the flow, upbeat, and calming - all things I really needed. I got my sneak peak photos from the wedding and welcome party on 10/15/2023. 26 pictures of pure perfection. OBSESSED! They are absolutely gorgeous. The day had its fair share of craziness, but these pictures are out of this world – coming from someone with 105,891 pictures on their phone. I feel like I got my perfect day, which will forever mean the world to me and would not have been able to happen without Meridith Bright. Thank you for everything, Mer! And to the googlers still reading, book her – you won’t regret it.

With showmanship and personality as big as their sound, Tidewater Drive is a performance powerhouse on any stage. This nine-piece party band features electrifying vocals, colossal brass presence with larger-than-life horns, and dazzling choreography for a show-stopping experience.

I cannot say enough good things about booking Tidewater Drive. We booked them through Sam Hill Entertainment and they made the entire process simple, stress free, and easy. The band listened to what we said we wanted and brought the best vibes and party! The band was so personable and brought so much energy to our party. Our guests are still ranting and raving about how much fun they had with them. The band would have members out in the crowd and on the dance floor hyping everybody up. They even did an awesome ending for us as we requested. I cannot thank them enough for making our wedding dreams come true and giving us the best reception party. 5 stars, 10/10, highly recommended, would DEFINITELY book again and again for any event.
