Introducing myself, an Atlanta-based wedding photographer with a deep passion for capturing authentic and timeless moments. I am dedicated to providing couples with a true-to-life experience, ensuring that every aspect of their special day is beautifully documented.One of the aspects I love most about my craft is the opportunity to travel. Whether it's an elopement in a picturesque location or a destination wedding, I am always thrilled to be a part of your journey. No distance is too far to document the love and joy that unfolds during your special moments.

Kim is always my first vendor recommendation to my couples. I have worked with her on numerous personal and professional events and always am in awe once I see the galleries. She knows exactly how to capture the images/memories many don't even have words to ask for. There is nothing better than truly being able to see how your guests enjoyed the wedding, along with their unscripted , raw emotion.

I’m known for documenting candid moments in a bright and vibrant way. I love capturing and creating narratives from start to finish - being a wedding photographer and videographer is the ultimate storytelling experience, and it’s one of my greatest joys. Weddings feel like home to me. I’ve found that it’s hard for me to stop smiling throughout the day, and even afterward, during the editing process. There’s just something about weddings that gets my heart all aflutter.

Ashley is awesome, easy to get ahold of when needed, she organized all the people who needed to be in photos very well, and got some amazing shots!

Lauren Rae Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,250
  • Serves Wilmington, NC for additional fees

We're wedding & elopement photographers who have spent the last 15 years traveling all over the US for our couples! We're relocating to Las Vegas from Atlanta this year, and are so excited to spend more time doing what we love - making incredible images and giving a killer wedding day experience to each and every one of our clients. Whether you're planning an elaborate, traditional wedding day or an elopement in the desert, we're here for you. We're the photographers who will make you laugh, carry your flowers, make sure you hydrate, and will give you priceless photos you'll treasure forever.

I cannot recommend Lauren enough! My husband and I visited Death Valley NP a few years ago and could not have imagined we would get the opportunity to have a photo shoot there… Lauren made it possible for us. Aside from the fact that it was hot, there was limited places to stay, and no cell service, Lauren planned and executed this day flawlessly. She camped out the night before and even drove our videographer around the park with her. Lauren took the lead and really went out of her way. On top of all this, the photos she delivered were stunning. She’s an absolute gem of a photographer and person. We highly recommend Lauren for your next photo shoot!

Our passion for telling love stories started out as capturing our own adventures but little did we know that God had planted a seed in our hearts that would grow into something that we are still in awe over. Today, our love for wedding films has lead us down a path where we’ve been blessed to capture countless weddings and help share each couples unique love story!

Love and Heirloom Films were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was professional, fast, and easy - they were always responsive and made the process seamless. The quality of their work was truly exceptional, capturing our day in a documentary, emotional, and picturesque way. They made sure to get all the big and little moments, and the final photos and videos are perfect keepsakes that we'll cherish forever. Every time we look back on them, we're transported right back to our special day.

Taylor Rae Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Wilmington, NC for additional fees

It brings me so much joy to photograph two people in love. That’s why I adore working with couples who know that their marriage is about SO MUCH MORE than just their wedding day. It’s all the days that follow. It’s choosing your spouse each and every day. Your wedding day will be perfect, not because everything went according to plan, but because you said YES to the love of your life. And I see it as a huge honor when a couple chooses me to document such an important day in their lives! When past brides describe my style, they say words like, “joyful,” “romantic,” “warm,” “bright,” and “photos that actually look like me!”

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! Taylor is your woman! My husband is not a huge fan of having his photo taken, so my main concern was finding someone that would make him feel comfortable. Little did I know how much Taylor would calm my nerves on our wedding day. She is such a light, but fun presence and I think that is reflected in how natural our photos felt. They truly reflect us, our love and the feeling of our big day. The only trouble you'll have is figuring out which of the hundreds of amazing photos you want to print. Seriously, is there a limit to how many wedding photos you should display in your home? She is the best!

  • Serves Wilmington, NC for additional fees

Hi! I'm Ashley, a traveling wedding photographer based in the DMV area. As a traveling wedding photographer, I'm always on the move, ready to embark on new adventures and document love in the most breathtaking locations. From adventorous elopements to grand celebrations in majestic venues, I thrive on capturing the unique essence of each couple's journey. I believe that photography is more than just taking photos; it's about freezing moments in time, preserving the raw emotions and genuine connections that make weddings so special. My goal is to craft a visual narrative that reflects your personalities, your love, and the beauty of your day.

From the beginning we knew Ashley was going to be an amazing photographer. Her collection of work is absolutely beautiful. She would reply to our questions quickly and with in-depth answers. She is super helpful, organized, and just an overall joyous presence, especially on the day of the wedding. She really took our vision for how we wanted our wedding to be captured and made it into pieces of art that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Wilmington, NC for additional fees

Hi there, my name is Jen El-Haddad! I am the lead photographer and owner of "Jennifer Mary Photography". I specialize in lifestyle photography and portraits! I started this business almost a decade ago, as a Photography/Computer Digital Imagery student at Shepherd University (Go Rams!) with a dream to share the artistic joy with others. However, life seemed to have a different plan. I slowly moved into the corporate world and lost touch with my creative side. After lots of soul searching and a 7-year hiatus, I found my love for photography (again.

Jen was amazing! Prior to our wedding we booked our engagement photos with Jen, so we could practice poses. I had a very particular lighting style, and Jen listened to my wishes and used the most amazing light angles and edited the photos in the was I had asked for. Prior to the wedding we had phone calls and meetings to make sure we had a set list of the photos I wanted, so that the day of nothing would be missed and it was stress free. Wedding day Jen captured every moment from getting ready, to the ceremony, family portraits, couples photos and even dances at the reception. Jen is kind, caring, respectful and professional. She was truly a joy to work with and I am in love with my wedding photos! I highly recommend booking your wedding, engagement or any pictures with this lovely photographer!

Eisley Images

At Eisley Images we are actively anti-racist by learning and unlearning our own biases and learned behavior. We are actively trying to make the wedding industry we are a part of more inclusive, kind, and part of the larger discussion at hand. As consumers ourselves, we deeply appreciate knowing WHO we are investing our money in. We want to be upfront and unapologetic about who we are, and what values we deeply believe in.

We reached out to Christy almost immediately after booking our venue (18 months before our wedding), and are so happy we did! We had a great engagement shoot - something we didn't think we needed/wanted but she convinced us that it was worth it and it was! When the pandemic hit, Christy was flexible and kind as we figured out how to change our wedding plans. We decided to have a super small, outdoor wedding at a family house with as many precautions and safety measures as possible and only 12 us total. Christy felt like a member of our family as she captured the most beautiful photos of our day! She was one of the only vendors on our wedding day and we are SO happy she was there with us! On top of Christy's awesomeness as a person, our photos are better than we ever could have imagined! We have the most beautiful photos to remember our intimidate wedding by and will cherish forever. Our family members who attended love them, too - and having such beautiful images to share with our friends and family who couldn't attend has been so great. Our wedding day was so much better than we could have imaged, and having Christy capture our day made it even better!

Faith Ealy Photography

  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Wilmington, NC for additional fees

I am a destination wedding photographer . While I’m based in Arkansas I have a love for destination weddings and elopements. You name the place and let’s go!! When I am not behind the camera taking a picture of you and your loves, Im taking them of my 2 littles living the daily mom grind! I get how crazy life can be but as Dr. Suess said it best "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory!"

I got married in September 2021 and had the best experience with Faith! I ended up catching her while she was doing a Black Friday sale and got a full wedding package for less than 2k! I was able to get engagements, bridals, and a full wedding day with her and at the time she had someone working under her as well so I had two photographers. Faith was great at choreographing poses for photos and working with the direction of the sun. We also loved that she was very kind but also knows how to take control of a large group of people to get great photos. The turn around for my photos was very quick on all three occasions and we loved the finished product! Faith will not only be your photographer but she will be your cheerleader and friend! :)

If you're looking for a photographer that is as excited as your big day as you are, then I am the Charleston wedding photographer for you! My goal is to document your wedding day as it happens with beautiful photos that you'll cherish forever, and to serve to the best of my ability throughout the entire wedding planning process. I am a southern girl from Savannah, GA. I love all things Disney related, a nice cold Coca-Cola, snuggles with my Giant Schnauzer, and traveling with my husband Ethan! I enjoy finding new restaurants and coffee shops to try, beautiful flowers on my kitchen counter and a crisp fall morning. I’m so glad you’re here!

Maggie was awesome to work with! She was always responsive, on time, and very friendly while maintaining professionalism throughout. We've loved all the photos she delivered to us! Maggie provided great recommendations for locations both in Charleston (Engagement shoot) and Savannah (Wedding event) and helped immensely with posing and being comfortable and natural. Her ability to streamline group photos and manage a variety of personalities without being uncomfortable or rude was incredible! We absolutely would work with Maggie again.
