Joy and Light Photography

Fayetteville, AR
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Costa Mesa, CA for additional fees

Hello! I'm Diana - An emotive wedding photographer focused on capturing candid love, real stories, and epic connection. Specializing in vibrant, clean, documentary imagery that will stand the test of time. Proudly serving couples in Arkansas and Oaxaca, Mexico.

Diana is kind, very communicative and very professional. I've heard of other photographers not communicating prior to weddings or dropping off the face of the earth, but not the case with Diana! There's open communication and planning and discussion and she checks in beforehand. She is able to be respectful yet also wrestle the groups and poses together that need to happen! We had 150 family members between my husband and me, and she was able to organize everyone into family photos very efficiently--it was like herding cats but she made it look easy! She helped coach my husband and me so that poses looked natural, and walked us through activities to get great bridal party photos. She respected our preferences for minimal editing, with bright and clear photos with lots of light. She had a second shooter as well and they collaborated together very well together to get great photos. I loved how Diana was assertive in her communication with our videographer and any other vendors to make sure they weren't in shots so I didn't have to worry about my positioning or spend any mental energy on that because I knew she had it taken care of. 10/10 would recommend her as a wedding photographer!

My name is Morgan Belieu (she/her), the owner and photographer here at Morgan Belieu Photography. I am photographer servicing both Seattle Washington & Phoenix Arizona; specializing in intimate couple sessions, small weddings & elopements, and portrait photography. But hey, don't let my current location or specialties prevent you from reaching out, I am always eager to travel and experience new places and people.

Awarded Best of Zola
Morgan is a dream to work with! I have been a hairstylist at quite a few weddings and elopements but I honestly get so relieved knowing I get to work with her because she is a radiant and a fun person to be around-- and I believe that kind of energy is so important for a wedding. She is also a lgbtq photographer so you know you will always be in a safe and welcoming environment with her! I have done a handful of weddings with her now (and even have gotten shoots with her myself!) and I can tell how much she cares about her work that she creates because she is so detail oriented. She also has a very creative eye so she can turn your love story into beautiful, intimate works of art that are also timeless in itself! I couldn't recommend her more!

I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. You’re planning the day that you’ve been anticipating your whole life and yet you only get one shot at it! By the time you get the hang of it, the planning is over! My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
I absolutely LOVED working with Sarah as my wedding photographer! From the moment I booked her until the final gallery was delivered, I couldn't have had a better experience. Sarah made everything so fun, made me feel like her most important client, and most of all, genuinely cared about what my husband and I hoped for in our wedding photos. She brought so much energy to our day, and was an absolute joy to hang out with all day. My husband, not one for all the details and photos, even had the best experience of his life with her. Best of all, we are in LOVE with each and every one of the photos from Sarah! Each one perfectly captures a memory and a moment (in the most beautiful possible way) that my husband and I will treasure forever. We cannot recommend Sarah enough!!

My gift is my vulnerability, passion, and dedication. I believe every image has the power to evoke emotions that can't be expressed in words.

Working with Dominique was an amazing experience, from our initial inquiry to the delivery of our final gallery. Dominique was very sweet, professional and organized, which made it so that my fiancé and I didn't have to stress over anything. She took a genuine interest in getting to know us and our love story, so that our photos would reflect who we are as a couple. Thanks to her help, our photo timeline worked out perfectly with the timeline of our wedding day events. We are absolutely in love with our galleries and love the creative overlap that we were able to achieve. Dominique made us feel really comfortable in front of the camera, which resulted in natural and genuine photos. We had mentioned that detail shots were important to us, and Dominique captured them beautifully. We are beyond happy with our decision to hire Dominique and are excited to have these gorgeous photos to look back on forever. Thank you so much!

I'm a Las Vegas based professional wedding photographer, working with couples from all over the world, as well as a travelling wedding photographer. Along with adoring weddings, I'm a serious hockey fan, with silver hair, and a terribly awkward smile. When I’m not photographing people, I love photographing Lego Minifigs on location, Darth Vader being a favorite (and personal hero) but I like expanding my collection of character portraits. I have a wicked sense of humor, a weakness for Rom Com’s & Spanish red wine. In my personal time I work closely with a local dog rescue, as a foster home and photographer, helping find their furever homes.

Klein Photography was so much fun! I always wanted to do a Trash-The-Dress kind of photoshoot. Katy handled the wedding day beautifully and our photos were amazing. She even stayed late to get the afterparty and put up with my "photographer" uncle. I scheduled a Trash-The-Dress session after our honeymoon which was a blast! Katy obviously enjoys being a photographer and it shows in her work. I have already recomended Klein Photography to a friend getting married. I hope they book! Thanks Katy :)

My husband and I had a wonderful experience working with Jade. She was professional, attentive, flexible, creative, knowledgeable, personable, passionate about her work, warm, and just a lovely person to work with. We found her portfolio on Wedding Wire and really liked her style of photos. When we reached out, she was very thorough and clear in the packages that she offered and always responded quickly. Based on the price and her photos, it was an easy choice for us to book her as our wedding photographer. My husband and I chose to get married at San Francisco City Hall, so we also wanted someone who had lots of experience at this venue and Jade did not disappoint. After we booked her, she scheduled a planning meeting with us one week before our wedding date. I loved that she enjoyed getting to know us as a couple and our love story and gave us tips on poses and where to get my bridal bouquet. On our wedding day, Jade arrived early and greeted us, super excited to photograph our wedding. She was very knowledgeable in where to go for the best photos and suggested many poses for us to try. She was also very attentive to our needs and energy levels and checked in with us often as it was a busy day. It took about 2 months for us to receive the photos and we are in love with them. They captured our sweetest moments and brought us right back to our wedding day. Lastly, you can tell how passionate Jade is as a photographer by the way she talks about photography and capturing wedding moments. Thank you, Jade, for your hard work and dedication to our wedding photos. We will enjoy them for a lifetime and we hope to work with you again in the future! :)

THE HOLY GRAIL OF WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS. Truly the best experience and photographer I could have asked for. This young woman is highly artistic, professional, hard working, and goes above and beyond to ensure you have the best photos and session experience. She has taken my graduation photos, engagement photos, and now wedding photos. She offers great customizable package deals well worth your money. She asks all the right questions to ensure you get the photos you want. She arrives early, drives or travels to any lengths, and delivers her photos early. She makes you feel comfortable, brings out the natural candid side of you (and your man for those of you with shy and camera timid men like mine). She captures all the important moments during your event and offers a second shooter for extra coverage. I could not have asked for a better photographer or experience. What an artist.

Authentic moments are what set our hearts on fire! We strive to capture you exactly as you are and bring out your personality. Think of us as your best friends that you haven't gotten to meet yet - we are known for dancing with our couples at receptions, snuggling babies to get a few solo pictures of the parents, and becoming lifelong friends with our seniors. We cannot wait to meet you!

Awarded Best of Zola
TL;DR: 15/10 -- She simplifies EVERYTHING about wedding planning AND takes the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. She will be taking our pictures for the rest of our lives. They are incredible. Kyra from beginning to end made everything absolute perfection. The pictures, my sanity, basically everything. We brought her to Crozet, VA for our engagement photos and our big day. Pre-Engagement get to know you session: We face-timed for 2.5 hours (not required just happened naturally). She cares about everything and anything you want to share and supports your vision. Engagement Session: She took the time (right after having a baby nonetheless) to come to us and make sure we were happy and comfortable in every way. Kyra got to know Dan (my husband) better and is the only person to this day that can make him smile naturally for pictures. Planning: Kyra provided anything and everything I needed or didn't know I needed. Refined/recommended timelines, pictures, hair styles, dresses, snacks for getting ready, laughter, you name it, she did it. If I had another vendor I needed a second opinion on, she reviewed their work. If I wasn't sure on chicken or crab cakes, she knew what would be a crowd pleaser. Basically she had wisdom and advice well beyond her years to accompany her incredible talent. Weekend of: Kyra and Heather came out early and scoped out the best locations for everything indoors and outside at the exact time the ceremony would be held to make sure the lighting was perfect. Day of: I would have fallen apart without her. Every picture she took was of real, candid, happy moments that my brain was too stressed to miss. When I ripped my dress, she and Heather whipped out sewing scissors to fix the problem. They kept the train moving and captured every moment beautifully. Best to have a photographer dancing with y'all to get the moment just right, and she does that. If I could give more stars I would.

I began my photography journey in 2008 and have been shooting ever since! My love of music and travel initially took me to Nashville, where I studied under some of the best celebrity and music photographers in the business. The City of Music lead me to tour with Jesse McCartney and shoot some amazing musicians including Blake Shelton, Outkast, and the Backstreet Boys (a personal childhood dream of mine). However, the mountains were calling (as they say), and I ended up moving back to Colorado, my home state, in 2015 to begin my journey documenting love in all its forms!

Jenni and her husband did our engagement photoshoot last fall and were our wedding photographers this August. From our first phone conversation, Jenni was sweet and helpful. She’s someone you talk to and feel like you already know her. Her attention to detail and client connection instantly convinced me that she had to be the photographer to capture our special day! On our wedding day, Jenni was calm, creative and collaborative with our videography team. Jenni above and beyond! When our wedding party limo bailed, she was quick to problem solve and get me to my wedding. When our timeline got pushed back a little, she made she that I got to eat and drink during cocktail hour. My husband and I are in awe of our sneak peak wedding photos and can’t wait to see the full album! We will definitely recommend Jenni to our friends and plan to work with Jenni in the future.

  • Serves Costa Mesa, CA for additional fees

I have been professionally capturing images for over 10 years. During that time, I built a successful promotional marketing company in Canada, received my MBA in Ireland, and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife. My favorite part about photography are the stories that are captured, the frozen moments in time that each picture highlights. Over the course of my career, I have been asked to tell thousands of stories. With the ability to operate in the United States, Canada, and Europe, I’m no stranger to traveling for a good story.

Working with Harrison was probably the easiest part of our entire wedding. He built us a custom package for our less than normal wedding, and was super thorough in documenting our details. When we got the photos we loved how he and his second shooter were able to get lots of pictures of our family and friends, while taking some beautiful couple shots of the two of us as fresh newlyweds. You won't regret having him along for your special day!

When we returned stateside, I pursued my passion for photography by getting my degree at Brooks Institute of Photography.

I appreciate this lady so much. From beginning to after marriage. She has been there professionally and as a great friend to ease the stress that comes with a wedding. She was on point with meetings we had. If we got a little busy, she came to us. She is so wonderful. The day of the wedding. She showed up on time and honestly was the reason our wedding day ran smoothly. She understood our family (very stubborn people lol)and how to manage us to get these photos done in a secure time. As the groom, I normally want to get photos done with and eat. But with Aazaria, our pictures were done so professionally and with plenty of time for me to eat haha. I love this lady and thank her so much. She is a big part of my wedding day. And will be a part of our family forever.

When it came to our engagement session she gave us ideas for locations and just made the whole experience so fun and easy. My husband hates his photos being taken and he enjoyed our engagement session and loved talking to Sydney's husband who was with her. When it came to our wedding day, Sydney has this awesome questionnaire that answers everything! There were questions on there I never even thought about!! She showed up early and found places for portraits and checked in on me. She's just the sweetest and made our day so special, even through the stressful parts. She was a blast at our reception dancing with everyone on the dance floor while taking photos, like I said she made the day even better. We were sitting in our hotel room the night of our wedding and I got a Facebook notification from Sydney Marie Photography, Sydney had posted 10 photos from our wedding, I couldn't believe it and it made me so happy. I can't thank Sydney enough for everything, if you're looking for a photographer do not hesitate and hire her.

I have 10 + years of experience documenting weddings throughout the U.S., it allows me to use an instinctive “sense of the moment” that is full of romantically authentic and spontaneous images.

Hillary was everything we could have asked for in our wedding and engagement photographer! We were extremely nervous about pictures as neither of us knew what to do nor did we have any ideas on poses. She directed us just enough to keep the pictures looking natural, like us truly, but also beautiful and relaxed. She would start to direct us and then praise us for just being ourselves which made us feel so comfortable and made the entire process fun, loving between us and an overall amazing experience. The end results are absolutely beautiful and we are extremely happy with her work!

Noah is an absolute pleasure to work with and would highly recommend him. I originally hired him to shoot my wedding a two years ago and have since kept in touch and hired him for my own company events. For me communication was crucial when speaking and selecting our vendors and I don't think there was a single email that wasn't responded within less than 24 hours. This was what made us originally select Noah. Noah made us feel at ease throughout the whole process leading up to our big day and even more so on our wedding day. He showed up early, was organized and professional but friendly as well. He made us a priority before, during and after the wedding was done. Within a week Noah delivered to us our entire wedding gallery, something that both my spouse and I were astounded and pleasantly surprised with. After reading and hearing horror stories of some photographers taking months to deliver photos, Noah eased all our fears once again and sent us a full gallery online. The icing on the cake is the photography itself. My wife and I loved all the photos and he did such a great job of capturing the day. I'll continue to hire Noah for anything photography related and have already recommended him to several close friends.

Featured on Today show and Wedding Day Magazine. I believe everyone deserves to have life's biggest moments captured on camera. But photos turn into heirlooms when the moments are documented in a way that feels absolutely authentically you. No forced emotions, no fake smiles, and certainly no awkward prom-pic poses. Whether you’re dressed to the nines on the day of your wedding or, the dirty white dress that spent more time on the dance floor than the altar let’s capture the authentic you and have a damn good time doing it.

It’s hard to put into words how incredible Mary is. From the moment we booked her, we knew we had made the right choice. Mary meticulously crafted mood boards, timelines and provided invaluable advice from the engagement shoot to the wedding. She has a warm and vibrant spirit that makes you feel comfortable and excited. We found many times throughout the wedding day we felt most calm with Mary while taking pictures. You won’t find another photographer like her, willing to go the extra mile to deliver a vision. We cannot thank Mary enough for our beautiful photos. They are mementos of a perfect day we will cherish forever.

This journey has been SO wild, but I don't regret a minute of it. When you hire me, you hire not only a photographer, but a planner and a cheerleader as well ;) If you like dogs or cats, coffee (oat milk lattes FTW), thriving plants, outdoor adventures, dancing, and sunsets, I think we'll get along great ;)

Helena beautifully captured our elopement last month. Her photos are warm, natural, and full of personality. I don't think my husband and I could have been happier with how the photos turned out. We ended up taking formal wedding photos at the Palace of Fine Arts and some more casual couple portraits on Crissy Field Beach. The majority of the comments we got from friends and family were centered around how epic and awesome our photos turned out and how our photographer choice was a 10/10. Behind the scenes, she was an endless source of enthusiasm and encouragement, and gave us amazing posing tips and suggestions. Even prior to the big day, she meticulously spent time discussing outfits, locations, and logistics to make sure the day was perfect. We're so glad we were able to jump on the Helena rocket ship as her career as a full time wedding photographer takes off. After our session, our close friends were so impressed with our photos that they booked their engagement and wedding shots with her as well. We have no doubt that her accolades will pile up and she'll be a go to recommendation for our friends and family. Definitely book her for your engagement, wedding, and photo shoots!

She made the environment so friendly and comfortable. The experience was so fun and we got everything we dreamed of and more with our photos.

I have a weird obsession with fuzzy socks and I prefer movies over TV shows. Now on to the typical things you want to know about my journey in photography...I got my first camera in 2009 and basically haven't put it down since! I studied photography at Savannah College of Art and Design and started my freelance photography career when I graduated in 2016!

I’m so glad you’re here. Really. My name is Katie Griffith, I’m 25 years old, living in the gorgeous mountains of Utah. Although it gets so cold and snowy here, you really can’t beat the Utah outdoors. The mountains feel like my second home. Ive been married to my best friend for over 3 years now, and our lil pack consists of our baby girl and our Golden Retriever. These three are my whole world! Honestly, I never knew this level of happiness existed before they came into my life. Ive been photographing weddings and elopements for 5+ years now, and I love what I do! I couldn't imagine doing anything else! This is truly my dream job.

We had 3 wedding location changes and our engagement pictures and wedding were all delayed due to COVID, however Katie was a rockstar and super flexible with all these changes. She rolled with the punches and stayed on top of everything with us by communicating on a regular basis while also giving us our space/time to figure things out during pandemic and unforeseen future. So far we were only able to have our engagement pictures in Utah (which were amazing and was our where our cancelled wedding was to take place). The pictures turned out beautiful, very candid which we love and she made us look great! As of now we are still planning for late summer/fall 2021 wedding and so looking forward to working with Katie again and seeing more of her amazing work! She is highly recommended within the Utah area and as a destination photographer.

Kenessey Studios is a mid to high end wedding & portrait photographer based in St. Louis MO. We have been working in the St. Louis area for several years now and really enjoy the people and venues in the area. Our style of shooting is a mixture of candid and posed shots that I think covers the bases for a large percentage of clients.

We're happy to write this recommendation for Shawn Kenessey Photography!!! He went above and beyond on our wedding day and delivered our pictures and album on time and beautifully packaged. The pictures were just perfect! We couldn't be happier and we highly recommend Shawn to any couples looking for a great photographer.

Hi there! Thank you so much for checking out my photography. My name is Ivy, and I'm a Photographer based in Utah.

I am excited to work with you and document your most cherished moments. I love having mini adventures with you, and creating beautiful moments that you’ll cherish forever. Although I’m based in Utah, I love traveling, and I’m excited to capture your “once in a lifetimes” wherever you are! My style emphasizes intimate moments, and capturing genuine emotions. Think: “dreamy, elegant, timeless.”

Ivy is the most amazing photographer/stand in best friend a bride could ask for! She was so professional, but it also felt like we were lifelong friends, and she knew EXACTLY what I wanted. She made sure I was comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. Ivy went above and beyond, and she got gorgeous, dreamy pictures of us; I cannot recommend her enough! I’m not usually photogenic, and I’m generally uncomfortable in front of a camera, but she made it seem like a conversation with a friend instead of a photo shoot, I was laughing so hard and forgot that she was even taking pictures. She lead us so well, and when I was going through the gallery, I had SO MANY favorites, and that never happens for me! I’m so happy that I had Ivy as my photographer, and that I have her gorgeous photos to remind me of the best day of my life!

DESTINI! She is an incredibly kind and talented photographer and we were blessed to have her on our wedding day. She brought along a second shooter, Nate, who was just as much fun. They ensured they captured what we wanted and captured things we didn't even think of. We're so thankful for Destini and Nate and the amazing work they do. We'll definitely be reaching out to them for future photos. 3

Hey, hi, hello! My name is Nancy Chhin, I’m a wedding and elopement photographer based in Portland, Oregon. I grew up in Southern California, I visited Oregon once and fell in love! I’m totally a kid at heart, so much so that I still have a giant stuffed shark on my bed and my favorite food will forever be cheesy fries. I’m the type of person that will say hello to every dog I meet on the street and freak out when I see a dog hanging their head out of their persons car or when I see cows grazing while driving down the backroads. I'm a huge lover of the outdoors and quiet mornings with a huge cup of coffee and reading on the balcony.

Nancy was so great to work with! I was on the search for a photographer style just like hers and was so happy to find her. Her photography skills did not disappoint and her friendly personality was key in helping us feel comfortable in front of the camera.

I'm thrilled you're here and planning one of the biggest days of your lives! I've had the privilege of capturing weddings at some of the most beautiful venues San Diego has to offer.

Alyssa is incredible! My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Alyssa DeGraff for our wedding, and I must say that my experience exceeded every expectation. Her professionalism, attention to details, and kind heart generated higher quality wedding photos than we could have ever hoped for. Alyssa took the time to understand our story and capture shots that were effortless and beautiful. She effortlessly managed the entire photoshoot, orchestrating group shots, candid moments, and even captured the intimate details only an expert would see. Alyssa's warm personality, gentle direction, and talent made it all possible. We have over 600 photos to choose from, and they are all stunning. We are so thankful to have met and worked with Alyssa, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in search of a talented and personable photographer. Thank you again Alyssa!
