  • Serves Wakefield, VA

At the heart of my process, I believe in being a calming presence who gives you room to be the most genuine version of yourself in front of my camera, gently guiding you with prompts while capturing sophisticated portraits and true moments. As a bride, you know how fleeting the moments of your wedding day will pass you by. So rather than worrying if you’re missing any of it you value being present, and will hire a photographer who will allow you to do just that. This trust grants you the ability to live in the moment while we’re documenting them for you telling the story of your relationships with a gentle authenticity.

My husband and I got married in December 2022 and realized a bit last-minute that we needed a Rehearsal Dinner photographer! Amanda was so accommodating and scheduled a conversation before the big weekend to go over all of our photo dreams and logistics. Not only is Amanda warm, kind, and easy to work with, her photos are absolutely stunning! Her work is light and airy with an incredibly timeless feel. With all the excitement and nerves of wedding weekend, Amanda was the calming presence we needed before our Rehearsal! We loved her photos so much, that we scheduled a Christmas card/one-year wedding anniversary photoshoot with her one year later in November 2023, with two large pups in tow! We give our highest recommendation for Amanda and her work and we are so lucky to call her our new family photographer!

At Big Day Story Carolinas, we're more than just photographers and videographers; we're visual narrators. Our team's mission is to illuminate the beauty of your moments and weave them into a story that stands the test of time. With state-of-the-art equipment and an artistic touch, we ensure every shot reflects the essence of the occasion. Whether it's the subtle glances or the grand gestures, our lenses capture it all, while our editing suites transform raw footage into cinematic masterpieces.

We came across Doko PRIME nMedia through one of our friends’ instagram story. Upon looking at their profile and the candid pictures they take we decided to reach out to them which later happened to be one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. We needed a wedding photographer/videographer who had an idea about traditional Nepali-Hindu wedding as we didn’t want to miss any of our special moments. After having chatted on the phone, we loved how easy it was to talk to Bipin and how he knew what exactly we were looking for. Even in a short 10 mins call, we bonded over our shared love of food . During our next call, we virtually met with Sanjay along with Bipin. After meeting with them, it became clear that we had found a great match, both in terms of professionalism and personality. The connection and ease we found with them made the entire process go so smooth. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that we usually are the most awkward posers and the most camera shy people. But, Bipin and Sanjay made it so easy on us that during our pre-wedding photoshoot we felt like we were actually hanging out with our friends. We initially were hesitant about our shoot but considering their suggestion we decided to go with it. When we look at those pictures today, we feel glad that we did it. We could head towards our big day with the best pictures and the most magical experience right before our wedding. A day before the wedding day, was my Mehendi. There was a change of plan just a night before our Mehendi, and we decided to go with HSNC, Morrisville for our Mehendi venue. Sanjay and Bipin were so committed to give us the best experience that they immediately adjusted with our change and drove from Charlotte to Morrisville to be on time to capture the groom’s entrance for the Mehendi. There were many different emotions flowing through the room that night. To our surprise this team managed to capture each of those both in photos and videos. You guys really treasured all those moments just for us to feel it every time we see them. On the wedding day, things ran a bit late due to some rituals taking longer time than expected (which is so typical for a traditional hindu wedding), but this team was A-gaming on their end. From being at the Bridal suite at 6:30 am in the morning for a bride getting ready shoot to driving down to groom’s house which was 45 minutes from the venue (DoubleTree by Hilton, Durham) to capture groom’s getting ready and ‘janti anmaune’. They were making sure that both the bride and the groom gets the best of what they could provide. While Sanjay was taking care of the groom-side, Bipin was making sure that Bride’s side were well taken care of. They made sure that every ‘aaha’ and ‘awww’ moments were captured from 8 hours long wedding rituals. On a practical note, both Sanjay and Bipin were consistently communicative and punctual throughout the entire process. Beyond their technical expertise they’re a joy to work with. If you are looking for a photographer who’s so easy to work with and professional all-round, look no further. Bipin and Sanjay are the best duo who can create a magical experience and capture all of your precious moments of your big day in the most unique way. Everytime we look at our wedding photos, it helps us relieve those moments. We will forever treasure these photos and videos. Thank you Sanjay and Bipin! Thank you Doko PRIME nMedia!

Hobbyist coffee brewer, professional nap taker, and sucker for raw moments and authentic emotions. Dedicated to documenting the beautiful moments as they unfold. Based in Southern California & available worldwide.

I am so fortunate that Yin and I found each other on a wedding thread and I was able to see some of his work and book him for my wedding. If you are looking for a true artist that will capture raw and genuine emotion, look no further. Not only can you feel it when you see his work, but he also made the whole planning process and the day of my wedding that much more special. Yin is not only incredibly talented but also an organized professional, great communicator and a gentle, calming soul who brings the right energy to every moment. I have only had the chance to see my sneak peak photos and my husband (ahh!) and I were literally obsessed with each and every one. Being the type of people who do not do well with all eyes on us and are generally awkward in posed photos, we simply could not choose a “favorite” as every one of them held a special memory or captured a raw moment. I literally feel like I fell more in love with our love story after seeing our photos of nervousness, excitement, joy, bliss and emotions. He is truly a storyteller and his 2nd shooter Catherine did just as phenomenal of a job. It is truly wedding vendors like Yin that make dreams come true on this huge milestone. I just can’t stop raving! I literally plan to hire Yin for any and every future event!!! Thank you, Yin for capturing my wedding story and making our day so special. You are so gifted and I am so lucky we crossed paths!

Hi I'm Maddy! I’m a Virginia native whose love of her camera took her on an adventure into entrepreneurship. I accidentally stumbled into wedding photography thanks to some family friends, and ended up leaving my career as a consultant to pursue my passion.

I thrive in fast-paced environments and love the energy of a wedding day that keeps me on my toes. My attention to detail allows me to go above and beyond when it comes to helping you prepare and capturing your wedding day.

There are no words to describe the breathtaking photos that we received back from our October 14, 2023 wedding!! Every single picture is stunning and there isn’t one single picture that we (even a little bit) don’t like. Hannah and her SIL showed up and quickly got to work. That day it was raining from dawn until the start of the ceremony and they showed up with smiles and raincoats to get every shot imaginable. They not only captured the sentiments of us but also captured the party and joy in everyone else there.

Hi, I'm Liz! I'm based in Lynchburg, VA. I moved here from Los Angeles where I studied Fashion Design and Merchandising. Photography has been a huge passion of mine since I was in middle school but one class in college that really sparked my interest again. When the Pandemic hit, I was 6 months pregnant and starting to realize that I didn't enjoy my job anymore. I was so tired of working 50-60 hours a week and realized the most important thing to me was to be there to raise my child. So, that was that and here I am.

Working with Rustic Rose Photography was the best experience! She completed both engagement and wedding pictures for us. I am not someone who loves to be in front of a camera, but Liz uses really natural prompts to make you feel like yourself and feel good. At my wedding, she was really supportive and even checked in with me to see if I needed water or food. She’s always prompt and fun to work with. Hiring her was one of the best decisions I made when wedding planning. I can’t wait to scheduled more sessions with her in the future because she has a way of capturing the warmth of a moment in such a special way.

Our engagement session and wedding might be over, but I wouldn't put it past us to use Virginia Wedding Company for future events, even though they aren't local to us. These two were the perfect photographers for us, and I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking!

We feel lucky to have had Joshua photograph our wedding day, his creativity and attention to detail is amazing. The photos came out so good that we can hardly choose our favorite one. Joshua of Starke Images made us feel comfortable and most of all, FUN. We didn't want the cookie cutter, generic wedding photos. Joshua's images made our photos look like they could belong in a magazine, the images are timeless and sharp! For the price and quality, highly recommend. We look forward to booking him again in the future, very happy!

We are Hannah and Anthony Green, a husband and wife photography team specializing in weddings throughout Virginia. While we love a wedding with a great mountain view or a historic home, we know that it is the people that make this day truly special. Our favorite part of the wedding day is capturing authentic moments as your most special people celebrate the start of your new family. Some of our favorite images from our own wedding were fun, candid moments with our family and best friends. We take that experience, and our 7 years of photographing weddings together, to bring a unique approach to wedding photography that is couple-focused.

Hannah and her team were OUTSTANDING!! Every step of the process Hannah went above and beyond and really made me feel important and my ideas heard. She was always there and willing to jump in to help with anything and ease my stress on the wedding day. She was extra prepared for whatever and super professional yet down to earth and approachable. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and at ease when taking the photos which really helps make them look and feel very genuine and not stiff and posed. When it came time to delivering the finished gallery we were blown away at just how many STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS photos she had captured and how fast she did it! We couldn’t have been more pleased. She was such a tremendous blessing and we were so so grateful she was a part of our special day. If you are on the fence about what photographer to hire, don’t hesitate any longer, she is the best and you will not regret choosing her and her talents!

Katie Merkle

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Wakefield, VA

I want to cover your day in a way that highlights the joy and sincerity that surrounds you and the people you love. Some emotions are unbridled, but most are nuanced and fleeting. When you look back at your set of images, I want you to be transported back to that day and to have those feelings rekindled. My role is to be an observer and a listener. The less time I spend interrupting, the more time I can spend watching, waiting, and capturing the moments that should be remembered. If I’m there to record it, it’ll be without printed pages from other photographers you’d like to see imitated. I'll be there as me – and I’ll be capturing you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Katie is so fantastic! She is communicative, easy to work with, and takes the most FABULOUS photos! My sister has special needs and getting good photos of and with her for my wedding was one of the most important things to me- and we have the most amazing photos! She captured every moment and emotion and I could not recommend her more!!

My name is Myles Katherine. I'm a photographer to my core and I am so lucky to have the opportunity to do what I love! Through my job, I have met so many incredible couples, artists, models, families and friends. After living in Portland, Oregon from 2012-2019, I relocated to Richmond, Virginia. However, I'm open to traveling anywhere and everywhere! I cannot make it through the day without coffee, my cat and (obviously) my cameras. I'm looking forward to being a part of your unique love story and capturing it in a beautiful, unconventional way. -Myles Katherine

Myles was our photographer for our wedding at the VA Living Museum and she exceeded our expectations (which were already high after looking through her website)! She really captured the joy of the day in such an artful and unique way. The film pictures were a particular highlight, so beautiful and elevated beyond your typical wedding photos! Myles was able to incorporate the natural landscape of the museum grounds into the photos as well. I usually feel pretty awkward getting my picture taken but Myles and her husband Chris made us and our family feel so comfortable there was no awkwardness at all! It was a privilege to work with Myles!

They made sure that all of our photo requests were met and captured every amazing moment of our day with ease thanks to their experience and professionalism. They were a joy to work with and I am so glad we had them with us on our big day.
