Helen Joy Photography

5.0

Saluda, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,700

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 Joy took our wedding pictures and they turned out amazing! We had an outdoor ceremony and she took some incredible photos, both organic shots and poses with the wedding party and family. She was great to work with, professional, and reasonably priced. We received our prints quickly afterward also. The entire experience with Helen Joy was an absolute pleasure!

Shannon Leopold Photography

5.0

Boone, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000

Hi I'm Shannon, I was raised in the city of Los Angeles, but now reside in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I describe my photography approach as a "directed documentary". I love to blend more traditional money shots (the big kiss, walking down the aisle, first dances) with a photojournalistic angle that feels like natural snapshots rather than posed photos. My firm belief is that great photos can only reflect what naturally unfolds on your big day. I focus on candids, guest reactions, and photographing anything that helps tell a complete, and unique story. My goal is that anyone who looks at your gallery feels what it was like to be there.

Shannon has impeccable talent! Her photos always tell the most beautiful stories. You can't help but do a little "happy dance" whenever she sends a gallery your way!

I’m a Greenville, SC based wedding & elopement photographer. Documenting the madly in love, fun and adventurous couples, wherever your love story may take me. I want my photos to artfully tell this important chapter of your story. My work embodies the real, the candid and the authentic. My passion lies in creating images inspired by the love between you two and the details of your day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Carly was an absolute pleasure to work with. I have to say, the thing I looked forward to the least about getting married was the photography session. It can easily turn into something that feels like just a lot of work and forced smiles. Not the case with Carly. We had fun, we joked and the smiles were genuine...I cannot fully express how pleased we were to have her shoot for us. I honestly believe we could not do better; certainly not at her price point. We are so happy she was the one to be there for us on our day.

I'm a CA based and travel wedding photographer. I've photographed almost 200 weddings, and every single one goes by so quickly. I love my job because even though the day goes by fast, I get to find and capture those small moments, sometimes just a fraction of a second long, so they can be relived over and over in photographs. I have a photojournalistic and editorial style, plus 9 years of wedding experience under my belt, so trust me that I've got it while you are able to fully enjoy your day and be present.

  • Serves Elkin, NC

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

We were fortunate enough to have Randell as our wedding photographer and videographer as I just stumbled to find him in a local wedding facebook group and without a doubt, he is THE BEST! From the moment we met him, it was evident that his professionalism and passion for his craft set him apart. His efficiency on the big day was truly remarkable. He seamlessly blended into the background, ensuring he captured every significant moment without being intrusive. His ability to organize group shots and direct us for those perfect candid moments showcased his experience and expertise. Now, let's talk about the photos - they are nothing short of spectacular! The only "problem" Randell presented us with was making every single photo look so incredible that it's nearly impossible to choose our favorites! As an artist myself, to me each image is a work of art, reflecting his keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of lighting and composition. Randell not only delivered on capturing the essence of our wedding day but exceeded our expectations. His creativity and skill turned ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. We are beyond grateful for his dedication and the timeless images he has given us to cherish for a lifetime. If you're in search of a wedding photographer who not only meets but exceeds expectations, look no further than Randell. He's not just a photographer; he's an artist who turns your special day into a visual masterpiece. Thank you, Randell, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable!

Weddings are stressful to say the least. From venue shopping to catering selection, I felt like I never had a piece of mind.

I am an elopement and wedding photographer based in Chapel Hill, Durham, and Raleigh North Carolina, but I am always down for an adventure and I love to travel. Whether you're having an intimate wedding in your home town or an adventure destination elopement I am totally down for the ride!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express how precious and special the photos Sarah captured for me and my fiancé are. Sarah has an eye for capturing moments we would have never thought to memorialize (e.g. walking down the street, the little moments of laughter between eating). Her photojournalistic style tells our story from beginning to end. Our favorite photos are the ones that involve movement, whether it's my fiancé lifting me up or me swishing my dress in the middle of the street. There are no uncomfortable forced poses, only candid secret moments. We cannot recommend working with Sarah enough. She is SO kind, patient, personable, and talented. She is willing to listen to all of your ideas and provide valuable input. She has worked in a variety of settings and it shows in her artwork!

We felt so relaxed and comfortable with her around! She had a us fill out a survey ahead of time of the types of photos we wanted and what meant the most to us and she absolutely delivered!! My husband had a broken foot at our wedding and Amy was able to keep his cast out of view in most of our photos. We ended up with hundreds of photos to chose from. Our day was captured so beautifully and we will cherish those memories forever.

AMANDA. ARTIST. EXPLORER. COFFEE DRINKER. TIME MACHINE. So you just got engaged and you need a photographer. Documenting all that love is a wonderful gift for yourself and everyone who loves you. My superpower is being able to see your beauty the way the people who love you do, and then capture it in awesome photos of you so that you can see it too. And there’s no awkward posing or fake smiles involved. Just goofy fun and bad jokes, and you being yourself. So come see the world through my eyes. And maybe you’ll decide you’d like to see yourself through my eyes, to see yourself the way the folks who love you see you.

Awarded Best of Zola
In a word, Amanda is extraordinary. In more words, Amanda was the best vendor decision for our wedding day. I'm a photographer, my now-husband is a videographer, and while we do not do weddings ourselves, we have both worked our fair share of them in the past, so we had a few ideas of what we were (and were not) looking for in a photographer. We could not have possibly had a better experience than we did with Amanda. On our wedding day, I forgot that I was a photographer. I knew every detail was left in her capable hands and I was able to relax and not worry about our photos even once. Meeting Amanda the first time was what solidified our choice in photographer. We already loved her portfolio of work. We already knew we'd love the photos, but meeting her in person solidified that she was the right fit for us. People don't often think about "fit" when it comes to a photographer, but it's so important. Amanda made us feel relaxed and at ease in front of the camera (that's not easy when you're always the one behind the lens), and we knew that she would be able to handle all sorts of personality types in our families and friends. Our wedding day images are thoughtful and artful and surpassed our already-high expectations. Our day was perfectly documented, and when you look at the gallery, it tells you a story - our story. Every time I look at our photos I am taken back into those moments, which is exactly what a good photo should do. I could go on and on (and on), but you get the point. Amanda's an artist and a professional and went the extra mile to make our photographs memorable and authentic, and our wedding day photography stress-free and easy. I simply cannot 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!

Hello! I'm Erica and I am based in Minnesota and Wisconsin but travel all over! I love fun adventures, traveling to new places, meeting people and learning about their unique experiences - a big part of why I love photography! I specialize in wedding and engagement portraits and love serving my couples!

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Erica’s page via an Instagram search, and I instantly fell in love with the vibrancy and authenticity of her style. Her work speaks for itself—she’s a tremendous artist—but what I hope to attest here is how much MORE you get with Erica. I’m not photogenic and I’m terribly awkward while being photographed. My fiancé and I also have a significant height difference, me being 4 inches taller. All this to say, it’s not easy to make us look good. But Erica put us immediately at ease, giving us perfect cues for posing, making us laugh, and giving genuine compliments to keep us motivated. We had an absolute blast on our engagement shoot finding awesome places in northern Minnesota, taking advantage of the gorgeous fall colors, and feeling like we’d made a great friend in Erica. It was the perfect chance to practice for wedding photos, and having that confidence in Erica made the day go so very smoothly. Nothing was left to chance or overlooked. Erica sent a detailed questionnaire to find out what our priority was for photos and what unique or meaningful touches were special to us. We talked through the whole day via video chat, and the photography timeline was laid out super clearly. Despite being crazy organized and overprepared, Erica is down for anything and great at improvising and adjusting to the needs of the moment, her easygoing personality set the tone for our entire day. She’s just fun to hang out with. She went above and beyond for us, even setting up a video call on a tripod so that my fiancé’s parents could watch our ceremony live from South Africa. And then there’s the actual photos: stunning. I can’t even believe the final product- the bright beautiful colors, the genuine emotion, the perfect timing, and delightful subtleties. She made us look SO good. And she sent a great number of our photos to us within a few days of our wedding, allowing us to share the excitement of the day while it was still fresh. I can’t say enough good things about Erica. I literally turned to my fiancé on our wedding day and said, “aside from agreeing to marry you, choosing Erica was the best decision I’ve made for this wedding.” I stand by that. 10/10 I recommend working with Erica, let her blow your socks off too.

Alysa was very open to work with us on our unique wedding plans. They captured the beginning of our day and wedding perfectly. We did not have them come take pictures afterwards, since we did not have the traditional reception. The pictures they captured though, were sometimes candid, and those ended up being some of my favorites. They are very amazing at getting shots that get the essence of the day and capture your raw emotions and turn them into beautiful, everlasting memories. 10/10 Highly recommend 1000out of 10 extremely recommend if having an outdoor wedding or photo shoot of any kind.

When I say Leah is the best, I absolutely mean it. Our first experience working with her was at our wedding. The photos turned out better than I could have ever expected. She really captured us as a couple - not just the big day - but the actual love we have for one another. I frequently get comments that our wedding photos are some of the best people have seen and I have to agree. Outside of the wedding, Leah has been our go to photographer for family sessions. Our session at the Oregon Coast was hands down my favorite and the pictures really turned out exactly how I envisioned in my head. My husband and I are NOT that comfortable in front of the camera. Leah has a special gift of bringing calm and comfort in the session, which allowed us to drop the awkwardness and really be vulnerable with one another. The photos are beautiful and I cherish the relationship we’ve built with Leah. She just rocks, period.

I believe that wedding photography should be about you. This is your love, your story and your adventure. Here's what I believe you deserve: A.

I've spent years photographing weddings and honing my craft, I've got you covered no matter what. Also, I bring snacks. C. Amazingly personal photographs where you don't feel like a stranger in your own wedding album. I want to give you a fun experience, and allow you to be fully present in the moment.

Wow, where do we start with Alex. Seriously, I don’t know if we have enough characters to explain how THRILLED we were to work with him. We’ll cut to the chase, for anyone planning a wedding and worried about feeling overwhelmed, work with Alex. We can’t begin to tell you how awesome he was to make the process so easy and relaxed. His experience and professionalism reverberated through our whole planning process. Just an absolute pro and incredibly kind, understanding, and so helpful. This was all even before we had the wedding day. The wedding day…my man had the whole thing on lockdown. The consistent conversation leading up to the wedding helped on the big day. Integral in setting the schedules, the key times, locations, the main players involved. Alex and Joe (shoutout Joe T!) we’re in complete lockstep with the wedding party and most important family members. That was something very important to us, the family members who mean the most to us were significantly highlighted throughout the whole night. Getting our closest loved ones reactions from the ceremony to the speeches to the dance floor meant so much to us. One thing for sure is that when you’re cutting a rug with your friends and family, just having the time of your life, Alex is there snapping those memories…and you wouldn’t even know he’s there. Our favorite photos are him catching the absolute joy on our faces as we raged with our favorite people in the world. All in all, we loved working with Alex. He was such an important part of our day and we couldn’t have been happier that he was with us on our biggest day. I can’t stress enough how key it is to work with the right people on your wedding day and we for sure we’re lucky to have Alex. When it came down to seeing the photos, Alex had a whole website dedicated to us and an incredible walk through of the day. It seriously felt like we relived our wedding. There’s a lot of decisions to make through the planning process. This one is easy. Alex Medvick should be your photographer.

The first part of wedding planning for us was finding the photographer because it was the most important to me (other than the man I was marrying). I was prepared to search high and low to find the perfect photographer, but Jessica found us! After attending a wedding expo she reached out and offered her services. We met for coffee and discussed our hopes and dreams for our upcoming wedding. There was an instant connection! I told Jessica wedding photos were at the top of my priority list, because they’re what lasts forever. I can look back on those photos and remember the excitement, happiness, and pure joy of marrying the man of my dreams. I told her I was looking for someone to capture the little moments along with the big. Jessica promised us everything we asked for and, man oh man, she delivered!!! I cannot speak highly enough of her. Every part of the process was made simple because of her organization and talent. Every communication we had was prompt, thoughtful, and respectful. She listened to our wishes, offered her expertise, and created unbelievable results!! Jessica and her assistant (Crystal) were fun to be around and made our sessions with them fly by. They made sure every detail was picture-perfect… even during our freezing cold outdoor engagement session. If anyone asks me for a photographer, Jessica is the name I give, every single time. She signed on to do our wedding, but we are now her clients for life because no one will compare to the incredible job she does. Let me squash any doubts you have and help you with the best decision you’ll make when it comes to finding a photographer… just hire Jessica Yahn!! We are forever grateful to have crossed paths with her!!
