3 Cats Photo

  • Serves Stanardsville, VA

I never thought I would be a wedding photographer. I started my professional career in Boulder, Colorado, riding on the backs of motorcycles, chasing professional cyclists through winding roads and epic climbs. I never thought I would find another career as exhilarating and rewarding but I was wrong. I photographed weddings in Colorado, but it wasn’t until moving East, to Charlottesville, Virginia, that I fell in love with them. I love all of the beauty of the flowers and the pretty clothing, but what I love most is documenting the love between the two of you, and the complete joy of your best day ever. We celebrate all couples!

I've known Beth with 3 Cats Photo for years and it was an honor to have her photograph our wedding. She made my wife and I's pinterest board dreams come to life in addition to taking pictures of all the tiny details we didn't even know we wanted until they existed. Beth is organized, kind, and so knowledgeable in addition to having a beautiful eye for the perfect moments and compositions to make every photo a work of art I want to frame on our wall. (Seriously, I've printed so many of our wedding pictures my wife jokes that I have constructed a shrine to our marriage - and she's not wrong, they're just so cute!).

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
I could not have asked for a better wedding photographer. My husband is in the military so we never got a chance to meet John or do an engagement shoot before the wedding day—it didn’t matter. John was so easy to be around, both my husband and I immediately felt like he was one of the group. (So did all of our wedding party) My husband, who normally doesn’t exactly enjoy picture taking, even admitted he had a ton of fun taking pictures because John made it such a blast. It felt so natural and easy. The pictures were absolutely beautiful and felt like he really captured the essence of the day. I’m so grateful we had a friend recommend him and I would 1000% recommend him to anyone.

For as long as I can remember, I have had a passion for understanding people and making beautiful images. Earning dual degrees in fine art photography and anthropology was a natural extension of this passion — a path that led me to launch Cramer Photo in 2005. I focus my photography on the art of documentation. I love to capture the in-between moments, when a bit of your inner self is revealed. Your images will be a perfectly honest reflection of you, the people you love, and the moment you’re in. I am a visual storyteller, documenting the personal and professional stories of my clients. Let me tell your story!

If there was the chose of 10 stars I would give them to Sarah and Cramer Photo. As a wedding planner, I am absolutely thrilled when a client chooses Cramer Photo and we get to partner. Sarah is energetic, enthusiastic and pours her heart into every project. Her talent is definitely 10 star worthy and the entire experience is so professional and memorable. Any client would be extremely lucky to get on the books with Sarah and her team.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Rachel Stenger was one of the best vendor decisions that my husband and I made for our wedding day. Even from the first meeting we had with Rachel, she has such a calming and warm presence which we knew was what we would need the day of. She has such a unique way of photographing and capturing moments that make her so special and unlike a lot of other wedding photographers we met with. We did an engagement session with her and she made us feel so at ease, like most couples we're not naturally in front of the camera but she was able to easily talk us through poses throughout the session. We had a call the month of to discuss details with her - e.i, timeline, shot list, etc. This was a great call because it helped all of us get on the same page for day of. Forwarding to the wedding day - Rachel arrived early to start on capturing details. She helped us stay on-time during getting ready and first look since my DoC was at the venue setting up. She was able to capture SO many images throughout the day from getting ready all the way to the dance floor. Aside from the staged/traditional photos you'd expect from the wedding, she captured so many beautiful candid moments. She moved in SILENCE, I truly didn't see her for most of the day (in a good way!) yet we ended up with 750 images in the 7 hrs we hired her for. She captured everything and more. When we finally got the full album - my husband and I spent had an amazing 2 hours reliving every single moment! She blew us away and we were not prepared by how beautifully she captured the day - all of the details, the emotions, and the aesthetics, were EVERYTHING! Her talent is remarkable and we couldn't have asked for anything more. I'd recommend her to anyone - in fact, I already have a friend that's hired her for their day.

Growing up in rural Virginia my intro to photography came to me at 14 while breaking into abandoned houses with friends to take photos that can only be describe in retrospection as “experimental”. Fast forward a handful of years and I found myself going 'legit' and holding a BFA in photography, later finding yet more perspective and cutting my teeth shooting society events in NYC. Having now spent more years of my life taking photos than not, it’s safe to say that I’m all in.

Cassidy has an amazing report when working with clients and the staff on weddings. We have absolutely had the best experiences from the booking process, through to the ease of the day of the wedding. Always being great at transitioning the clients, bringing smiles to their faces and then producing beautiful imagery. We have loved working with Cassidy for the last 8 years and know that he bring professionalism, a unique perspective, and humor to ever wedding day.

She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles. She captured our guests so beautifully too, particularly the kids who were in our wedding. Everyone's personalities shone through so wonderfully and the picture are absolutely stunning.

Hello, I am Brittany Adams, I am a photographer, writer, graphic designer, and retouch artist who wishes only to exist in the world as an artist. I want everyone to fulfill their potential and I pride myself in being able to help other people see the beauty and value within themselves. Due to this I have created a heart-centered business which focus is not just earning a sustainable income but promoting confidence and independence in women.

Brittany is a talented photographer. Anyone can take a picture, but she captured our very small ceremony at the Virginia Fine Arts Museum with the most stunning and artistic photos, both black and white and in color. She is a total professional, was very easy to work with and the end result photos are exactly what we were looking for. I would HIGHLY recommend her for a wedding or really any event at all!

My style is rooted in a editorial and documentary approach, allowing me to narrate your unique love story through timeless images that capture genuine emotions. I prioritize unscripted moments, such as the reaction of your spouse as you walk up the aisle, the inside joke that makes you break out in laughter or the tears as your loved ones share thoughtful memories during toasts. These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

I absolutely recommend Lucia for any photography needs - my fiance and I had such a great time during our engagement session. Neither one of us had ever had professional photos taken of us before, so this was new for both of us. Lucia made it feel easy - but most importantly FUN! She was super helpful in picking a location and time that worked best for our needs and style as a couple. She also asked if we had any preference for particular poses, which at the time we didn't, so we followed her lead and absolutely loved the way the photos turned out. We are so excited for our wedding day, and the memories that will be captured beautifully by Lucia.

Hi! Congratulations on your engagement! I'm Arielle and I want to photograph your wedding! I'm a fun loving lady that's totally in love with love. I have like 20 years of experience with a camera in my hand, and 7 years since I started shooting weddings full time. Rain or shine we're going to have the best day ever if you choose me to shoot your wedding. I grew up in Vermont and after traveling around and living in several different states I made my way back to Vermont where I posted up and started this wild photo business and I've never been happier to share my talent with you! I can't wait to meet you!
