Hi! We're Sean & Rachel, a Husband and Wife Photography + Videography team capturing intimate weddings across the East Coast! We are truly here for all of the moments, from the second you inquire, to the farewells and "see you laters" when the wedding celebrations end. Let's celebrate together!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first spoke with Kingdom Shakers Photo and Video, we were impressed by their responsive, personable, and friendly communication style. They truly listened to our wants and needs, and their caring approach put us at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, their creative and dependable artistry shone through, as they captured every special moment with an eye for detail. Would've liked more "getting ready" photos up in my room but we didn't have enough time, so make sure to book enough hours so that won't happen. Our engagement photos turned out beautifully, and Rachel even helped us pick out outfits that would look best for the time of year. The wedding day photos turned out so good, and they made sure to try and incorporate all of our input on what we wanted. Overall, the final product was of great value, and we highly recommend getting the raw video footage in addition to the edited version to ensure you don't miss a single second of your special day. Kingdom Shakers Photo and Video was a joy to work with, and we're very happy with the results.

I believe it's those little details combined with your love that make your day come together so perfectly.

We have worked with Sarah for several different occasions - college graduation photos, family Christmas pictures, and most recently a gender reveal for our first baby. We have been consistently blown away by her talent and how well the pictures turn out! Our family Christmas pictures featured our black lab puppy who was rambunctious (as you can imagine) but despite his endless energy and moving around, Sarah was amazing and got wonderful pictures of him! 10/10 would recommend for any occasion!

Hi friend! I'm Tianna, a wedding and portrait photographer based in Raleigh, North Carolina. Originally, I'm from coastal NC but after graduating college, I settled in the Triangle and have been loving it ever since. I'm a girl mama, avid fantasy reader, travel enthusiast, and true crime junkie. There is nothing I love more than cuddling with my toddler (when she lets me), reading a great book, and drinking a cup of coffee. Growing up, I never imagined I would be a wedding photographer. I honestly thought I would be an author! While I'm not putting pen to paper, I am still telling my couples' love stories and loving every minute of it!

Tianna Sanders Photography has captured all of my family milestones and memories since 2020. She has captured our wedding, my college graduation, gender reveal, maternity, lifestyle, boudoir, anniversary, and so much more. She is extremely professional, understanding, and personable. Tianna’s personality is welcoming and allows you to feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her versatility and creative mindset gives you unique pictures every time. If you are looking for someone who will make you laugh, feel comfortable and one who will do anything to get the perfect shot, then Tianna Sanders Photography is the photographer for you!!

After graduating college my goal was to coach and work in the fitness industry. Long hours and the realization that I was working really hard to make someone else a lot of money led me to entrepreneurship. I left a job in 2019 to start my own business. That little business is now my career! My love for photography and helping other families like mine preserve memories has only grown since starting my own family. My kids are my "why" and I truly believe being a mother and a wife has made me a better businesswoman.

  • Serves Washington, NC

Thomas and Ginger's love story blossomed in 2007, leading to a picturesque June wedding in 2011. Combining over 15 years of photography experience, the Grimes Photography team offers couples an exceptional journey and unforgettable photos. Settled in Greenville, North Carolina, Thomas and Ginger cherish their family life with Kennedy, Houston, and Shepard, alongside their cherished dogs Lilly and Walt. Octavio joined the team in 2022, infusing his passion and nearly a decade of expertise into every project, while relishing precious moments with his wife and two children.

We had the pleasure of working with Thomas & Octavio at Grimes Photography for our engagement pictures, bridal portraits and wedding weekend and I have to say, I could not be more pleased with how this entire experience turned out! Thomas was very personable, EXTREMELY ORGANIZED, and is all around a great person to work with. When you are getting pictures done for your wedding, it is so important to have people that understand your style and vision. Thomas was great listening to us and was so efficient the day of our wedding. I was very pleased about this, since we had a very large wedding! We asked a lot of Thomas when he came out to take our engagement photos on South River. He spent half of the day riding in our nasty boat adventuring off into the sound & mosquito filled woods. But, let me tell you - those pictures were AMAZING! And the photobooth. WOW. YOU NEED THE PHOTOBOOTH AT YOUR WEDDING! We had the best time getting to look at the 300 pictures from our wedding guests. This is a really fun way to capture the thrills of the night because people have the freedom to take pictures the way they want to be seen. Really a fun thing to have at your wedding! If you are looking for a photographer that can capture all of life's beautiful moments...Thomas and his team at Grimes Photography are the ones for you. The photos speak for themselves, but they truly have the eye for what goes into that beautiful photo. We highly recommend Thomas and Grimes Photography.

Our whole wedding day, I felt very comfortable and confident- I knew Megan understood our vision. She was very accommodating, making sure to capture what was important to us. Again, she made being in front of the camera feel effortless. I am blown away with the sneak peek pictures we got back. She absolutely captured our vision, our guests, and my husband and I perfectly.
