Molly Madeira Photography

Greenville, SC
  • Classic style
  • Serves Swannanoa, NC

Hi! Molly here—lover of Jesus, laughter, and sunshine. I specialize in capturing weddings and elopements for the happily in love. I strive to tell each couple’s story in a natural, authentic way so that when they look back on their photographs they’re able to relive their favorite memories and moments for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Molly is the BEST. She took our engagement photos last year, and we just loved working with her. She is fun and easygoing, and so creative. We trusted her completely to capture our wedding day, and she delivered!! The photos were everything I dreamed of. Molly is just so fun to work with - when she directed the bridesmaid getting ready photos, it was like working with a friend. Literally such a wonderful addition to the bridal suite to have someone as kind as Molly around. Also, during the wedding and reception, we never noticed Molly and her second photographer around, yet they were capturing beautiful images of the day. Our wedding did not feel like a big photoshoot, and yet every image I could have possibly wanted was captured. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend Molly for literally any photography need you have. 10/10

  • Serves Swannanoa, NC

Hi! I'm a Charlotte native, mom of 3, horse and cat mom, passionate cook, artist, gardener and all things creative. I love hearing love stories, getting to know my couples, and really working my hardest to not only deliver full wedding day coverage, but that WOW factor, that makes you KNOW in your heart you chose the right photographer.

Stefanie was our dream photographer! Years later her photos fill our house. She was wonderful to work with and disappeared into the background of the wedding while still being everywhere to grab all the amazing photos of moments we would want to cherish for years. She was quick with our couple photos getting us through as soon as possible and onto the dance floor. Through the hundreds of photos, there is not a bad photo (or bad angle) in the bunch. We highly recommend her!! And can’t wait to use her again!!

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
After my Husband and I decided where we were getting married, Nick was actually the very next vendor we decided on. I knew the photos were something that we wanted to make sure were something we would cherish for a lifetime and Nick went above and beyond. Starting with his warm website, to then a Facetime call to get to know each other, Nick is kind, patient, accommodating, and just so incredibly knowledgable about so many wedding things, not only photography! We instantly knew Nick would be the perfect fit to capture the most important day of our lives. He also was the primary go to for establishing our wedding timeline which ended up working out great! Fast forward to the day of the wedding: Nick was an absolute dream! His presence was so calming and supportive (you spend a lot of time with your photographer on the day of your wedding) and I'm so glad that we got to spend the day with Nick! His attention to detail was impeccable, he captured absolutely everything, I felt 0 stress on the day of, and I left that day knowing we would have memories that would last a lifetime. Our preview gallery which came a week after the wedding was FILLED with so many stunning photos, and our full gallery followed just a few weeks later. We were overwhelmed in the best way. I would recommend Nick Levine Photography time and time again. Not only did we walk away with a stunning wedding gallery, but a new friend! You should absolutely choose Nick to capture your special day, you will be so grateful you did!

Adrian Etheridge Photography

Asheville, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,900

I've been an artist for as long as I can remember. My mom gave me an old film camera sometime around 5th grade thinking offhand that I might be interested in yet another art form and boy was she ever right. From then on, I've always had a camera in my hand, documenting anything and everything. Photography has been not only my chosen form of expression for over half my lifetime, but my way of learning about the world, of getting to know people, and even of getting to know myself.

Awarded Best of Zola
Adrian went above and beyond for us! She is so talented; she's got a great eye and you can tell she loves what she does. We loved getting to chance to meet and work with her during our engagement shoot several months before the wedding. Right from the start she made us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. She was easy to work with on coordinating our day-of timeline, and she was up for anything! Adrian and her assistant, Erin, worked hard to capture every part of our big day and everything went smoothly. Her shots are well rounded- we got a great mix of candids and portraits- we love every photo! Her turnaround time is also amazing- within a few days we had sneak peaks of our pictures for both the engagement shoot and the wedding day, and within a couple weeks she was sending the link to our full preview! We can't thank you enough, Adrian!

    Soon after Juan and Emily got married in 2018 Juan began his photography career as a light technician in LA. Juan studied journalism for his undergrad, and this is when he was gifted his first camera and his interest in photography was sparked. Emily's childhood dream was to be a photographer, and after working for years as an ICU nurse she is able to do just that alongside Juan. We are energized by the creativity that photography brings, and the light and joy we experience from meeting couples.

    Juan was a wonderful photographer for our family photos. He was prompt, prepared and a true joy to be around. Everyone in my family felt comfortable with him and he was so encouraging throughout the photoshoot. Even with 3 small children, Juan managed to get all the shots. I would highly recommend Juan for any future photoshoot opportunities!

    We had the most wonderful experiences with Laren! We wanted our wedding photos to look timeless and classic. She gave us just what we were hoping for and captured our day exactly as we remembered it. She went above and beyond shooting our bride and groom portraits to follow! We had originally planned to take pictures the day following our wedding on the Blue Ridge Parkway, but when we arrived at our destination, it was 39 degrees and windy. After taking a few photos, Laren offered that we come back during a warmer time to take the pictures at no additional charge. The photos turned out BEAUTIFULLY!! There were so many good ones that we had a difficult time deciding which photos to print for our home. Laren has such a warm and encouraging personality that made my husband and me feel very comfortable from the get go. You will love your photos by her guaranteed!

    Jeremy is everything you want in a wedding photographer and more. He is highly skilled and truly a delight to work with! From our very first conversation, it was obvious he enjoys capturing weddings and working with couples, which reassured me that our treasured moments would be in very capable hands! Jeremy’s lighthearted, happy demeanor put us at ease and made it enjoyable and easy to work with him. During our engagement session (which I highly recommend!) he gave us great direction and helped us to feel relaxed and more ourselves even when we otherwise might have felt self-conscious. On our wedding day, Jeremy was an unassuming, reassuring presence—it felt like being with an old friend! The resulting images were better than we could have imagined.

    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!!!

    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.

    We got married 2.5 years ago on the beach, which is where we had met 4 years before that. Lacey was truly one of the great choices of the day. Before she arrived she began helping us plan and think of details we could not anticipate. Her experience and professionalism really showed before, during and after, but one thing not anticipated and so blessed by was her friendly, easy-going enthusiasm. No matter the weather changes, the mic malfunction from our DJ/friend, or even things going late- she was supportive and helpful. We had a small house-warming reception afterward. Seeing her dance while taking photographs was fun and helped her blend right in with everyone. I still have friends asking me to give recommendations for photographers, and I'll tell them about Lacey every time. A great choice!

    The Jungle Branch offers an authentic, refreshing approach to wedding photography and is paired best with folks who wish to remain present in the moments throughout one of the most important days in their lives. With an artistically stylized and candid approach, my goal is to not only tell your story in its truest form, but to encourage you to fully live your day, allowing yourself to experience the calamity of joy with your loved ones without photography feeling like a production.

    Working with Mike was an absolute dream. My partner and I are not people who feel comfortable in front of a camera. Mike completely changed that - although we had never met in person before, Mike felt like an old friend. He had the utmost patience in dealing with our wild family members before we arrived and captured every moment completely perfectly. Mike was so intentional about every shot and was incredible about getting all of the nature-inspired, detail-oriented shots that I wanted. Every time I look back at my wedding album, I'm brought to joyful tears just seeing how perfectly captured every raw emotion was. At our reception, guests couldn't stop raving about how personable and easy to work with Mike was. We had a very "free-flowing" party and Mike was able to round-up everyone and get all of our needed family and friend shots - an impossible task! My partner and I just don't have enough good things to say about the entire experience, Mike as a person, and the beautiful pictures that we ended up with. I look back on our photos and know that I will forever have memories of the moody, "Pinterest-board-inspired" wedding of my dreams!

    A word of advice, hire them! Hire them for both photo and video! I feel blessed to have stumbled across Jen and Brian’s company on my search for a videographer and photographer. Jen was wonderful to work with from the get go. She was willing to drive hours from her home for both my wedding and my engagement photos. She is so flexible and ready for whatever Mother Nature throws at her. Our pictures and video are just amazing! They were able to capture the moments in such a way that it’s like you’re reliving the day over again. Throughout the ceremony I had no idea they were even there, they were like ghosts but they captured every important moment. I will cherish these photos and video forever. I hope one day I have a reason to go back up and hire them again for some photos.

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.

    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!

    Kind, patient, flexible, talented... what more could you ask for from your wedding photographers. Jules & Conrad are top-quality people and photograhers. We fell in love with them for their eye - finding beauty in the smallest of candid details. Even going in with high expectations, we were overwhelmed by the quality of the gallery Jules & Conrad delivered. If you want photographers who will also be able to capture the small moments beyond the big kiss - the quiet glances, the guest smiles, the reach of a hand, a dancefloor drop - this is the couple for you. Would choose them as our photographers a million times over.

    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.

Fifteen years ago, I started telling visual love stories of couples in Western North Carolina and East Tennessee. What started as doing a favor by shooting a friend's wedding, became something I wanted to pursue more wholly. So, let's tell your story. The story of you and the love of your life I can't wait to create something with you.

    Mike is an incredible photographer! He went above and beyond on our wedding day and helped make it really special. He helped us feel relaxed and made us laugh a lot.

      This review is long overdue. One year ago today, Ashley photographed my intimate family wedding. Literally everyone at my wedding loved her. My brother is also a professional photographer (but a jinx for weddings) and complimented her sooo many times. She was so low-key throughout the event, blending right in throughout the day. She was so sweet and friendly, she basically felt like was part of the family that day. She got beautiful portraits of me and my husband, portraits with our families, then so many great candids throughout the day - exactly what we wanted. She definitely knows what she's doing with the couple portraits too - she gave us directions that sounded so silly at the time, but omg the pictures came out amazing.

      Where do I even start.. Melissa went above and beyond before we even booked her. From the first time we met her at a wedding expo, my husband and I knew she was going to be our photographer. Her style is so amazing and unique, we instantly fell in love with her photographs. Instead of just treating us like we were just another couple whose wedding she was going to shoot, she treated us like we had been friends for years. When we did our engagement shoot, my husband and I were a little nervous since we had never had professional pictures done before. Melissa made us feel instantly better! She was there making us laugh, talking us through it all and telling us stories of her and her husband doing sessions and what they do to ease their nerves. Melissa was not only here for us as our amazingly talented photographer, but she also always had a helping hand for ANY wedding question we had. She made me feel so relaxed at times when I was just a big ball of stress. Fast forward to our wedding day.. She was a freaking champ!! Our day wouldn’t not have NEARLY gone as smooth as it did if it wasn’t for her! Melissa is amazing at her job and making sure everything was on time with all the pictures and the timeline we had against the sunset (fall weddings lol).

We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

      intimate wedding photographer originally from the coast of VA, but now based in the North Georgia Mountains & love finding new adventures while exploring the outdoors. When I am not hidden behind my camera, you can find me hiking up a new mountain with my fur babies, eating tacos, or spending quality time with my little family. I started out capturing families, then realized that my heart is completely drawn to love & the bond that two people share. I describe my photography as bold, intimate & sincere. I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions as well as the pure romance between two people on their wedding day.

      Hannah truly is a total package. She is the sweetest human, best photographer, and the best person to keep your head on straight during your wedding. We had an amazing experience from the first few message exchanges. We had a beautiful engagement shoot and an even more beautiful wedding. All of the images we got truly reflect the absolute joy we felt on those special days. On my wedding day Hannah really was more than my photographer. She helped keep me calm, keep me on schedule, and even put together a last minute boutonnière for my dad when my venue messed up and didn’t make enough. To say we were thrilled and in love with our pictures and experience truly is an understatement. We can’t wait to have Hannah capture other events in our life and you should definitely book her for your special events as well!

Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time.

      If you’re looking for someone to make you feel your absolute best, super comfortable, and give some direction - you’re in the right place. Nicole and I would not have been happier with the choice to book Steve for our engagement/wedding photos and video. We were nervous and uncomfortable with posing and stressing out about how we would look in our photos, but he did his absolute best to make it super fun and stress free. We look at these photos and are still in shock at how beautiful we felt and how much fun we had. He communicated with us every step of the way and took the time to understand and execute our vision. We wanted a couples handshake stop motion … seems a little out there, right? Well … he made it happen and I’m still crying over it today. We had a few photos to swoon over as soon as a few hours later(to hold us over), and the rest came super quickly as well. I could go on and on, but I think you get the point. There is only one answer here - book Steve for your photo & video needs if you’re looking for the best experience out there

      Hi, I'm Kayla, and I believe that your wedding day should reflect what you and your beloved want; **not** what others want. Yep–I said it. Your wedding day can be your greatest adventure yet, and your decision to elope can trailblaze the way for more intention in your life. How?

      Kayla is an absolute DREAM to work with! My husband had her secretly follow us around when he proposed, and she was such a delight! We were so comfortable with her and she took the most amazing photos. So, when we heard she did elopements … we knew we had to go with her! She walked us through the entire elopement process, researched the area to find the BEST space for us to have the ceremony, and kept us updated on everything leading up to the big day. We wanted a sunrise ceremony and she was able to figure out the exact area inside Cloudland Canyon that would give us the best light. Our pictures are absolutely breathtaking due to this. Not only is Kayla an amazing photographer, but she’s truly a delight to work with. She has the best energy and she is SO kind and patient! If you’re thinking about eloping, use Kayla. She knows her stuff and knows how to make sure you have the most perfect day.

      Hi, my name is Hayle and I am the creator of Crash Media Productions! I started my videography and photography business in 2014 while earning my bachelors degree in Digital Media Production and Film Studies at Florida State University. I started Crash Media as a way to do what I love- by making magic behind a lens become a reality on the screen. It is a passion and an honor to be able to tell couples' love stories through my eyes and camera. My goal is to ensure that newlyweds can look forward to reliving their precious day for a lifetime.

      If you're debating hiring a videographer for your wedding day, stop it and just hire Hayle already! While photos are obviously amazing, having video to capture the sights and sounds of your wedding day is seriously so special, and Hayle pulls it all together sooooo beautifully. Literally as soon as we got engaged, we immediately reached out to book her for our wedding date because her schedule fills so fast and we knew we wanted her to be the one to capture our day. Not only were her final edits of our wedding beyond perfect in telling the story of our love, but her communication style, professionalism, and creativity cannot go overstated. She was an absolute dream to work with before, during, and after the wedding day and we cannot recommend working with her enough!

      • Serves Swannanoa, NC

      As a long time wedding and elopement photographer, I am passionate about my couples enjoying and being present on their wedding day. I take only a handful of wedding clients a year so that I stay fresh and excited. I usually shoot about 30% classic portraiture and 70% lifestyle/photo documentary. I like to tell the story through movement and candid photos, while also taking time to create striking and timeless portraits. I edit all my photos in black and white and color, with a film finish.

      Helen was awesome to work with, she captured all of my favorite moments of my wedding and then some that have become a treasure in our household! It was so comfortable to work with Helen. Nothing felt awkward in the shots we posed for or in the candid ones she captured. Honestly the candid shots were absolutely amazing. She reminds me of Henri Cartier-Bresson in her ability to capture precious decisive moments of embraces, smiles and tears. We are grateful for these memories Helen captured at our wedding.
