Rivkah | Fine Art Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Swannanoa, NC

Hi, I’m Rivkah, I three beautiful boys–Laef, Atlas and Oslo. I have a background in art, music, and wedding fashion and apparel, and I’ve been a wedding photographer for over a decade. More than anything, I’m a mom and I love it. In fact, I only commit to around twelve weddings per year to ensure I give my family, and my clients, the attention they deserve.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rivkah is not only extremely talented but also an amazing person. She and Kaitlin photographed our wedding and it felt like having old friends there with us. They captured from the major moments to the little intimate incredible ones. The pictures are truly amazing. Everyone who has seen them has said they are the best wedding photos they have ever seen or that they look out of a story book. She really made our wedding look like fine art.

Haverlee Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Swannanoa, NC

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee), solo parent of three wild things. My photography career was birthed from many years of pain. My life derailed and everything felt unstable and uncertain. The more difficult things became, the more I clung to small moments of beauty. When things felt dark, I clung to the light. And I could always find light in people and in nature. Focusing on others instead of my own dark days brought me joy every time without fail. I always knew I was creative but it took me a while to find my niche! As I ventured into photography, everything fell into place. It was as if I already knew the language, I just had to find the words.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I were first looking at photographers for our wedding, we knew we wanted someone who could capture the emotion of our day so that we could re-live those memories forever. Haverlee did that for us and so much more!! Her photos brought us to tears and are a true treasure. Not only are her photos beautiful, but Haverlee is such a delight to work with. She made our day (and all of the days leading up to it) feel easy and allowed us to stay in the moment. We couldn’t recommend her more! We can’t wait to use her for all our future photos.

Shutter & Sound 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Swannanoa, NC

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

My husband and I loved working with Shutter and Sound for our wedding!! They went above and beyond when capturing our venue and all the special moments throughout our wedding day. The videographers were very personable and easy to work with, and were confident in their vision. All of the deliverables came even sooner than we were expecting which was a nice surprise, and I've watched our videos sooo many times since we got them back. Truly a great experience! I'd recommend Shutter and Sound to anyone looking for quality footage that really tells a story. :)

I’m an Asheville-based photographer and lover of the great outdoors, home cooked meals, hot summer days, and going on adventures. I’m weird (aren’t we all?), but I’m unapologetically myself, and I am obsessed with my job and this life I am so blessed to live. I've worked with some awesome couples, and maybe you're the next!

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!

Carly is the absolute best. I told her my vision and she brought it to life in the most magical way possible, more than I could ever imagine. I look at my wedding pictures and I fondly think of when I’ll get to show these to my grandkids in the future. The unexpected shots were my favorite ones. The colors popped amazingly and some of them even look like they could be photos in a magazine. Carly is such a dream to work with, her communication is top tier and she shows so much grace and flexibility. We know we will hire her to photograph our next phases of life.

Wilder Weddings Collective 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Swannanoa, NC

Wilder Weddings Collective is a dedicated team of elopement and wedding photographers passionate about capturing wild love and real emotion. Based in Western North Carolina, but willing to travel anywhere, we’re leading a revolution in wedding photography, bringing the focus back on couples, their commitment, and the whole experience of the day.

Where to start… Carolyn and Jake made our wedding day(s) better than we could have imagined. They guided us through just about everything including, location scouting, vendor recommendations, and the wedding day itinerary. They helped us create the perfect day that we didn't even know was possible. After planning for 6 months, the day finally came and rain was in the forecast. Carolyn and Jake took this in stride and pivoted our hike to the day before our original date which turned out to be sunny and perfect. This meant we were lucky enough to have two wedding days, which was awesome! It also turned out so much better than our original plan. If we had to do it all over again we would have planned it as a two day elopement because it was more fun, less exhausting, and stress free (after we nailed down the new plans). Carolyn and Jake even hung out with us after their “time” was up for a couple celebratory glasses of wine. They are incredible people and by the end of the day it felt as though we had gained two friends. OH and did I mention Jake made us coffee on the mountain and Carolyn sewed my dress?!? Yeah, they are WAY more than “just photographers”. Best decision we ever made (other than marrying each other) was hiring Wilder Weddings Collective. The pictures were absolutely stunning!! PS - We highly recommend allowing Jake to set the hiking pace, he saved us on our hike!

Hey y'all, I'm so happy you are here! I'm Payton. I'm based in Asheville, NC but will travel to wherever your love takes you. When I'm not on a photoshoot I'm either traveling, hiking, or spending time with my family. I have been a photographer for 10 years and photographing weddings for 5. I have a BFA in Photography from RMCAD. I LOVE getting to know you and helping you plan out every minute detail of your wedding day. My passion is capturing the essence of my couple's love, every story is uniquely you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Payton was a hidden gem that I found through an intense Instagram/Facebook search for a wedding photographer. I was starting to get discouraged with the outrageous pricing of some of the big name photographers in the Birmingham, AL area and disappointed with the gallery examples of some of the cheaper options. When she messaged me back, her rates are so reasonable and affordable and her Instagram really shows how vibrant and dreamy her previous galleries have turned out. I felt like I could really trust her with capturing our special memories, I was right. Prior to the wedding, she sent out a questionnaire asking about our photography priorities and mindset. Also recently she started including an engagement session when you book her for a wedding package!! A steal! We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience with a Payton. She also is a traveling queen, so if you’re not in Birmingham, AL, don’t be discouraged!

Laren Rose Photography

I believe your photos should have a timeless feel, full of your real emotions. I’m here to guide you every step of the way for a stress free experience. All the way from timeline planning to guiding you behind the camera, I’m here for you. 🌿

Awarded Best of Zola
What initially drew us to reaching out to Laren to be our photographer for an intimate, 14 person wedding ceremony was obviously her stunning, timeless and romantic photographs. But what somehow stood out even more than the beautiful photographs she delivered to us (and with a relatively short turnaround!) was what an absolute pleasure it was to work with her, from communicating to figure out if it was a good fit initially, to planning a wedding day adventure session, to ensuring everyone at the ceremony got the photos they wanted. Throughout the initial coordination and planning process, she was very helpful with providing feedback on our ideas and crafting it into a clear plan for the day. She was flexible in allowing us to split coverage between an early morning adventure session in the mountains and time later at the venue for the formal wedding ceremony. She provided recommendations for other vendors and drafted timelines to help us organize the activities for the day. Leading up to the day, she provided us with regular updates about the weather, proactively providing alternate options if it did not cooperate. For the adventure session, it ended up being a frigid and windy morning, which could have been a miserable experience but because of her warmth, energy and positivity ended up being really fun despite us being freezing! She was always offering alternate ideas to make sure we had opportunities to warm up and even spent a good amount of time at the beginning helping us learn how to tie a bowtie. Since it was so cold and windy in the morning that we cut our hike short, she offered to come earlier in the evening (which was so kind) and shows her commitment to having the whole day really be about her clients, even if the coverage is split into two sessions! Working with her for the ceremony felt so natural and it really showed in the heartfelt, genuine and joyful photos that she took. We highly recommend Laren -- her skills would shine for capturing any event!

I am a wedding and portrait photographer armed with a love of treasured moments and an obsession with light. I have photographed hundreds upon hundreds of weddings starting in 2002 in NYC. I have had the honor of traveling all over for weddings with my furthest destination wedding being Nice, France. I have made Asheville, NC home since 2011 and have loved photographing weddings here ever since.

We absolutely loved working with Jen, and are so glad she photographed our wedding! Everything about the process was so comfortable and easy, and she truly enjoys people and photography - what more can you ask for? Jen blended in with our guests to get some great shots of our multiple family and friend groups, and even stayed a little later to catch some sunset portraits of us! She was really accommodating when we wanted to meet up before the wedding (because we don't live in North Carolina) and also has the shortest turn-around time for incredible quality photos of all the photographers we researched. Highly recommend!

We have been lucky enough to work with Jeremy 3 times and hope to continue having him capture special moments in the future. Jeremy shot our engagement pictures, wedding, and family photos with our baby and we are always so happy with the experience and photos. He goes beyond taking staged shots and finds the moments not everyone sees so looking back at the photos let us experience moments we missed during the hectic parts of our wedding day. He is also genuinely kind and goes out of his way to make everyone comfortable. His photos are artistic yet still manage to capture personalities and relationships beautifully. We highly recommend him and his work!

Laura naturally makes couples feel comfortable and at ease, which is pretty important during your wedding portrait shoot. She's so down-to-earth and fun to work with whether it's a true elopement or an intimate ceremony (with a handful of guests).

I wouldn't hesitate recommending Laura to anyone but especially couples looking for an adventure off the beaten path!

I'm a visual artist, when I have my camera I'm in my happy place, I'm dedicated in studying the elements that have come together for each moment to happen, finding ways to play with composition is my passion, and delivering images that will take your breath away, is my goal. I believe it is important for my clients to know me and have a glimpse into my world, my interests and passions. It creates a stronger bond between photographer and client. After all, I'm not just a photographer. I"m a mother, a friend, a wife and another human walking this path alongside you.

My wife and I first learned of Daniela while thumbing through promotional materials for a wedding venue in which various local photographers helped to capture its essence. Each photo was beautiful, but there was something particularly captivating and exquisite about a number of them. They were vibrant, rich, layered, and told a story. We had to know who was behind the lens. It was Daniela. When we first met her, we knew we had our photographer! Daniela's stunning photography, thoughtful organization, candid approach, and undeniable artistic vision is matched by her easy-going, fun, and trustworthy demeanor. Daniela photographed both our engagement session and our wedding, and it felt like being with a friend each time. And, of course, the photographs were extraordinarily STUNNING. She has an indescribable gift for capturing "the moment" and in times when you wouldn't even expect there to be a moment. We could not recommend her enough!!!

Hi! We're Julie and Rad. We met in Vietnam in 2016, and have lived in eight countries together since then. During our time abroad we've had plenty of adventures, seen incredible wildlife, eaten a lot of wonderful food, and honed our photography skills. We also got married in 2020! Planning a wedding during a pandemic involved an unusual set of challenges. Although our guest count was a little smaller than we originally anticipated-- the day could not have been more perfect. This was made possible only because we hired and trusted the right people. We try to instill the same trust so you can enjoy your day!

Simply Amazing! We had our engagement shoot at the Biltmore estate and it was nothing short of magical. Julie was able to capture exactly what I wanted the pictures to look like. She is a joy to work with and helped us feel relaxed and at ease. I can’t stop looking at my pictures and everyone that lays eyes on them is OBSESSED! They take your pictures and capture who you are but also make it look like a beautiful piece of art. I simply cannot say enough good things!

Lacey is a world-travelled photographer originally from the midwest. This is a woman and Vet owned business. Her strength is primarily about seeing- the composition, the light, the dynamics between the people she is photographing. Portraits have a lean toward that as well, with a push toward the bonds between people. By working to get clients to interact, the images made reflect the connection between individuals as well as the self.

Lacey was so easy to work with and we love the results. We did not have much time to pull together our tiny wedding (we eloped), and we were lucky to find her. She was creative, professional, and just fun to be around. Highly recommend her and her work.

"Passionate" doesn't really begin to describe how I feel about being a photographer. It's more like, who I am as a person. Photographs are able to speak a million words in a moment when words may fail. After photographing 200+ couples of all shapes, sizes, & colors -- I can still say it is my favourite thing to do in the universe. People are my JAM! I love people & their wonderful uniqueness. When two people get together in a thing called "love"? Well, I just can't help but want to be a part of it! Capturing those obvious or subtle displays of affection between two people in true, heartfelt love is as necessary as oxygen in my lungs.

Beautiful work that captures both big and small moments; capturing expressions of overwhelming joy, love and tenderness. Works to understand what is important to each person, family or couple being photographed and brings out the best in everyone.

We have a passion for telling your love story via imagery. Our style is classic, romantic and joyful. We are based in Asheville, North Carolina but travel to many wonderful locations. We specialize in working with joyful couples in love!

We could not recommend Natasha more. From the moment we found her, we knew we were in the right hands. She met with us via Zoom regularly leading up to the wedding. Anytime we reached out with a question, she was ready to set up a time to chat and make sure we felt confident and prepared. She had great recommendations, was knowledgable about the area, and sent incredibly helpful bride and groom guides (these even helped us to make some really important decisions that changed the way we planned our wedding day!). Natasha connected with our videographer in advance to make sure they would be on the same page and work well together, which they most definitely did! Her and her husband, Al, showed up early the day of the wedding and worked together seamlessly. In their company, I felt immediately comfortable to be myself, to make jokes, to go with the flow. Before reading the bride guide provided by Natasha, we were planning to have a first touch but not a first look. After reading Natasha’s thoughts and experience of first looks, we were convinced. Our first look was the perfect moment for us to connect, release our anxieties, and remember the real purpose of the day. We were able to have plenty of space between ourselves and the camera and truly felt like we were alone enjoying the moment. This was one of the major highlights of our day, and the photos show it. As the day pressed on, Natasha was the perfect photographer and director that we needed. I had asked that she feel comfortable to be as bossy as necessary to capture the perfect pictures. I had experiences before where I ended up hating my positioning, posture, or the distance between people in wedding photos. She handled this job with grace and the perfect amount of discipline. Everyone listened to her, and the fun, joking energy continued. During our ceremony, I was able to release any stiffness and be myself. We had the least stiff ceremony I’ve ever attended, and it was a true representation of who we are and the love we share. I believe this was due to our comfort level provided by the photography team of Natasha and Al, as well as the relationship she established from the start with our videography team. It didn’t feel like we were being watched by extra “staff”, they felt like they were meant to be there. And honestly, I could barely tell they were there half the time! During the ceremony, I had no idea they were getting the shots and angles they captured! While I awaited the photo album, I honestly thought we were going to be missing some of the angles I had dreamt of because I never saw them taking them. As soon as I saw the album I was SHOCKED to see that they had been there all along, capturing my husband's face as he cried for my entry, capturing the guest’s reactions, capturing it all. If you are considering hiring Natasha, please stop hesitating and book her. You will NOT regret it. In fact, as soon as you reach out to chat with her, you will feel at ease, in the best hands you could be in, and like considering anyone else would be a mistake. From speaking to her on our consult call, chatting leading up to the day to create a perfect day of schedule, working with her the day of our wedding, and spending a stunning sunrise capturing our love once again, we were in awe at her professionalism, ability to feel like a friend, and STUNNING end product.
