Jaira + Jesse

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Stem, NC

We're Jaira + Jesse. We’re equal parts homebodies and avid travelers. We had a traditional wedding, and while it was the right decision for us at the time, looking back it could’ve been so much more intentional, focused on us + our relationship, and the things we’re the most passionate about. Because of that, we have grown to be super passionate and dedicated to helping couples create elopements and intimate weddings that are the truest reflection of themselves in the places that inspire them the most and documenting that for them.

Jaira and Jesse were absolutely incredible. My wedding was anything but normal thanks to Covid... they both stuck with me the entire way and went above and beyond to make sure they would make it(now to another state) to capture my wedding. They even helped me day of and did more than I could’ve ever expected to help make sure it all ran smooth just because that’s the kind of people they are. Their character speaks volumes for their work and their love and passion for photography speaks for itself in my pictures. I would recommend them time and time again as they were such a memorable part of my special day. Thanks guys for everything!

We got photos and videos for two days and they even live streamed our wedding to our family overseas. Billy's photos are insane gorgeous and Cheryl's video captured everything we had dreamed of. I highly recommend them to everyoone wanting a amazing wedding.

AMANDA. ARTIST. EXPLORER. COFFEE DRINKER. TIME MACHINE. So you just got engaged and you need a photographer. Documenting all that love is a wonderful gift for yourself and everyone who loves you. My superpower is being able to see your beauty the way the people who love you do, and then capture it in awesome photos of you so that you can see it too. And there’s no awkward posing or fake smiles involved. Just goofy fun and bad jokes, and you being yourself. So come see the world through my eyes. And maybe you’ll decide you’d like to see yourself through my eyes, to see yourself the way the folks who love you see you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Amanda’s work speaks for itself. Her photography isn’t just a snapshot in time - she creates true art. She’s also super calm and easy going (a major plus on what can be a hectic day). From her portrait and group shots, to shots during the wedding, to still life shots of the cake, rings, or outfits, to journalistic style shots of the reception, she captures it all with a beautiful eye. What I love most is that her style is unique, with such stunning use of light and shadow. Her photography was easily the best thing we spent money on for our wedding. I highly recommend Amanda Summerlin Photography.

I’ve been a wedding photographer for 11 years, but I’ve been an artist since I could hold a pencil – and I’ve been in love with stories just as long. Of all the ways to create a life around storytelling and art, I’m so glad to have found this one: weddings are filled with stories both intimate and profound, and with elements of beauty that delight the artist in me. I love the challenge of seeking, finding and capturing the beauty I see, and telling your story as I see it unfolding before me.

As a wedding decorator, I get to work with many photographers and Ayesha Ahmad Photography is one of my favorites! I love her style of photography and she is very easy to work with! She takes great portraits of couples as well as decor shots!

Holly was great to work with. We got married in May 2020 so everything that we had originally planned changed. She was flexible and willing to change plans as the wedding date approached and state guidelines regarding COVID-19 changed. The day of she was professional and got great shots of every part of the day. And, my favorite thing she did was when the photos were ready she made a slideshow of our photos for us to watch together before we looked through all the photos. She was great to work with for every step of the process!

When I started wedding photography 15 years ago, I wanted to create stunning pictures that showed off my technical skills. Those skills are helpful, but they are no longer the focus of my attention. You are. Now, my goal is to make sure you have the best wedding possible, and that you remember as many moments and details as possible. You may think you'll remember it all, but life moves on and you'll forget more than you expect. I'm here to remind you what your wedding day was like, how much you love your family and friends, and why you got married. I'm excited to help you have a wonderful wedding full of beautifully captured moments.

Ellen photographed my wedding and two separate engagement sessions. This stated, there is nothing more I can say than if I ever have a need for a photographer again, I'd hire her every single time! Her ability to get the perfect shot in every situation is simply amazing. Further, whether she had to take her shoes off and stand knee-deep in water, or provide firm (yet friendly) directions to friends and family after the ceremony (to get all our pictures done in time), she was as competent, kind, and professional as any photographer I've ever seen. I understand how hard it is to trust one person with capturing the most important moments of your life, but Ellen did not disappoint!

R WAGNER PHOTOGRAPHY

On most weekends you can find me, Robert ('Bobby'), photographing weddings—either in New York (where I lives) or farther a field: in various locations around the US and abroad. I find wedding ceremonies to be more than just a series of actions, people, and images to be “captured,” but rather recognizes them as events full of deep personal and cultural significance, particular to a specific time and place and community. As such, I assumes the responsibility of documenting these moments with great respect, believing them to be deserving of a discerning eye and an artistic hand.

We had the pleasure of meeting Bobby a few years ago when my sister got married. When we got engaged, he was the first vendor that we booked. Bobby is an incredibly professional and passionate photographer. His work captures every emotion of the day. What we love the most about Bobby is his calm demeanor and that he blends in with the crowd. He is really flexible and is willing to accommodate all needs. We are currently in the process of making our wedding album and it’s hard to choose the photos, as every one is better than the next. We are forever grateful to Bobby for capturing our special day.

We specialize in many photography services and aim to be your go-to wedding photographers, event photographers, portrait photographers, maternity photographers, corporate photographers, and everything in between. 

Wow, we could not have been more impressed with Brian and Anna! They were recommended to use by our wedding planner, and my first interview with Brian was enough for me to be blown away by his professionalism, creativity, and photography. We got our pictures back quickly, and loved every one. From family portraits to candid moments and "detail" shots, we got everything we wanted, plus some shots we didn't know we wanted! Brian and Anna were given very little "must have" shots, and really impressed us with how they worked to capture every amazing moment of that day. Both Brian and Anna were easy to talk to, flexible, and detail-oriented, which is crucial when hiring someone to capture your special day. Brian presented us with many package options to assure we got exactly what we wanted. The style of photography was unique and and wonderful, and fit our aesthetic perfectly. Thank you both so much for the amazing job you did!

I want to capture all your in-between moments, those are my favorite, the way you guys sneak looks and steal kisses. I don’t want to be just another person who shows up and waves a black box in your face. I want your photos to represent your effortless connection, the closeness with your person, and all the other things that make you guys YOU! I am inspired by your love and I want to capture YOUR raw and real story. I want to tell it through my photos. And the fact that no else has been in my shoes, I see the world through eyes that no one else has. That’s what makes me different. Also NO TRAVEL FEE anywhere in the states!!

We got married in June 2022, and even now looking at our photos and video has us in disbelief at how Ruzin beautifully captured our special day. It’s like we’re viewing someone else’s wedding, but it’s actually ours! Throughout wedding planning, she went above and beyond for us and we can’t truly express our gratitude. She takes the time to get personal and get to know you well and understand your vision to help take it to the next level. We’ve seen many wedding photos, but hands down ours were the best. Choosing her was the best decision we made!

Ryan did a fantastic job with our engagement and wedding photos! He was both friendly and professional. For the wedding, he arrived early so that he could survey the property, find the best photo areas, and start shooting. I could tell that he was making every effort to capture the perfect photos for us and to incorporate the shots we wanted. I’m interested in photography (as a hobby), so I appreciated that he occasionally explained why he was using a certain lens, having us stand in a particular area, etc. He was fun to work with. Looking at the photos, you would have never guessed that this was his first time visiting the venue. There are so many beautiful pictures, I don’t know how we’ll choose which ones we want to print! I appreciate his work in capturing our special day.

Sokol & Co Photo was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day! From our very first interaction, Savannah was organized, considerate, and prompt in her communication, making the planning process much easier for us. I didn’t have a wedding coordinator, so having Savannah be as organized as she was was SO important. On the day of, she was fun and put us at ease in front of the camera (even my husband who isn’t crazy about photos). The quality of her work is incredible - Savannah has an amazing eye and is so creative! She captured all of our desired shots and so many unique, special moments that I wouldn’t have thought of. Sokol & Co Photo is worth every penny, and we are thrilled to have such perfect photos of our wedding day that we'll cherish forever!
