Tomi was absolutely wonderful at our wedding a few months back! He hosted a pre-wedding meeting for us to go over details, and checked in with us the week of the wedding so there were no suprises the day of. Tomi was somehow everywhere and nowhere the whole day, meaning he captured so many beautiful moments but was so good at not intruding in private moments between us and our guests. And our pictures are STUNNING! He used our whole venue and gave us so many amazing memories, we're having trouble deciding which ones to print! Tomi is so professional, artistic, kind, and funny, he is definitely the perfect accompaniment to your wedding day!

When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

Awarded Best of Zola

Was open and honest about her passion in photography. My favorite photos are the candid shots she got of my friends and family. Now over 10 years later, I still look at these photos every anniversary and smile at the laughter and love she captured.

Awarded Best of Zola
I simply cannot say enough wonderful things about Sean. From the moment we contacted him, he was professional, warm, and dedicated to creating an amazing experience for his clients. I am normally very camera shy, but Sean was so easy to work with that he put me at ease immediately. And as a cherry on top, he sent our photos back within the week! When we were choosing wedding photographers, we wanted someone whose work would transport us back to our wedding day. His photos captured the small, intimate moments that we will treasure most about the happiest day of our lives- the laughs as the wedding party prepared together, the moment my father saw me in my dress for the first time, the roller coaster of emotions as we read our vows to each other, the rowdy dancing at the end of the night. I can look at a picture and remember exactly how I felt at that moment. To Sean, the photographer who captures joy- from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Know that you have created something special that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. It is clear that you take great pride in your work and it was truly wonderful to work with you.

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Awarded Best of Zola
Diana is amazing to work with! She is super detail oriented and easy to get along with. Her process really streamlines everything and I felt like I wasn’t doing a lot of unnecessary selections which is amazing as a busy bride! She really makes everything enjoyable and takes her work seriously. Diana truly became such a special person in our lives throughout the wedding planning process and even after. Throughout our wedding weekend she really felt like family. She laughed, cried and celebrated with us. Diana is so talented and passionate about her work and trust me it shows! I truly can’t wait to work with her again in the future.

Hi! I'm Sarah. Congratulations on taking the next step in your wedding planning! Choosing to work with me earns you more than just a photographer; you get a hype-girl, a dress fluffer, a confidant and a new best friend. Since we are now future besties, here's what you should know about me: My love for portraiture stems from the joy it brings me to make others feel beautiful. Few things make me feel as giddy as photographing weddings, engagements & proposals, and I can't wait to capture the next stage of your love story. My strengths lie in natural lighting, illuminating colors, and catching the candid moments that make you, you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had to change photographers due to changing venues, and like a beacon of light or a divine intervention from God- I was referred to Sarah by another photographer. From our first zoom meeting I knew she was the one (it took me faster to realize she was the one than it took me to realize my husband was the one!). She was just so knowledgeable and passionate about her craft. She had such a burst of energy and enthusiasm which was very needed, because the time we were going through was so stressful. Fast forward to the wedding day, we were running behind because other vendors were super late. I was even more stressed and there were too many details to remember. Sarah was extremely patient and kind. She made me feel beautiful and grounded. She kept praising me and guiding me through pictures. I got sneak peeks in less than a week and I almost fainted at the beauty of them! I couldn’t believe they were my pictures. If the sneak peeks were that beautiful, I cannot WAIT to see the rest! Sarah please don’t stop doing what you do. You truly have a gift. You listened to what I wanted, you hyped us up, you ignored my bridezilla moments and you worked soooo hard to capture our beautiful day. If we need an NYC photoshoot, you’ll be the first one to call! We love you 3

These intimate details hold immense significance to me. As your photographer, I bring a heartfelt and genuine perspective, ensuring that your wedding day is portrayed in a way that truly reflects you and preserves the memories you'll cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé and I loved working with Lucia! She did an engagement photo session with us, and the whole experience was fantastic from beginning to end. She set up a video call to get to know us, get a sense for who we were and what we were looking for, and then was super helpful and communicative when picking a location for the shoot. She was able to share sites she had used before with photos from those locations, and she shared input from other photographers on locations we thought of that she hadn't used before. When we started looking for a photographer we were apprehensive about the whole thing because we're both by nature pretty awkward in front of a camera, but she made us super comfortable and you can tell how relaxed we were when looking at the photos. We genuinely had family members say "now that's what I think of when I picture you two" when they saw our photos. She even asked for some of our favorite music and had it playing when we started, which was super thoughtful! For the shoot itself, she gave us plenty of direction but was also really collaborative and open to any of our ideas for poses or shots or areas of the location to use. We were worried on the way to the shoot because it was rainy when we first showed up at the park, but right away she had ideas for how to still find usable areas and took some great shots, and even had some clear umbrellas that made for a cute look. When the rain let up, we were able to get some wide shots that really took advantage of the location and she did a fantastic job of editing out the groups of oblivious sightseers that walked into frame. The photos definitely capture us as a couple and showcased the location we chose. After the session we got our preview gallery back in record time. She told us she was going out of town on a family trip a few days after our shoot but she'd get our preview turned around before she left so that we didn't have to wait, and she totally delivered (and probably 3x the amount she promised, so she even overdelivered). We got the full gallery back exactly when she said, and they all look amazing; we loved the experience and the photos we get to share with family and friends.

I knew that I wanted to hire Justina as soon as I saw her work— I loved her editorial style, her vibrant photos, and the fact that she offered a 2 photographer 1 videographer package (her brother Anthony is the videographer, and they make for a real dream team!!). We contacted her in January for a June wedding. We had about 3-4 calls before the wedding, where she made sure to fully understand my partner and I’s preferences and styles when it came to photography, posing, etc. We also did an engagement session with Justina (which was complementary at the time, and I HIGHLY recommend doing it before the wedding), and that allowed us to get familiar with her shooting style. I feel like we became friends very quickly. On the wedding day, Justina and her team arrived early and adapted quickly when we had a sudden change of plans due to weather. She also adapted quickly when the original 2nd shooter got sick right before our wedding, and found a replacement photographer right away. Our wedding party and I had so much fun shooting with her team: she was efficient while being thorough with the shots we wanted to get. Anthony, the videographer, also had creative ideas and suggested several unique “shots” to capture for the wedding video. Their team integrated so seamlessly into the wedding that I honestly barely noticed them running around and capturing moments. They were both professional and down-to earth; I felt like they even added to the joy and fun vibes our our intimate, 85-person wedding. I got the preview wedding album from Justina exactly a week after the wedding as promised, and Anthony sent the short video reel a month after (also as promised). We’re having so much fun going through the photos—they truly turned out better than I expected, and if there were any changes or tweaks that we wanted to either photo or video, both Justina and Anthony are super responsive and reasonably quick to change them for us! Justina and Anthony are an up-and-coming team, and I could not recommend them more! You should definitely book them before they’re booked out for the rest of the season :)

Hi, I’m Bridget — but you can call me Bee, cause that’s what my friends call me! And since we’re basically already best friends, let me tell you a secret: taking pictures isn’t even the thing I love most about my job. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m as obsessed with taking gorgeous, dripping-in-light photos that you’ll look back on for ages as much as the next photographer. But what I really love? Meeting the most kind-hearted people and getting to know them on a level much deeper than the typical client-photographer relationship.

From the first chat I had with Bridget I knew we were going to be friends & that she was just the person I wanted to capture our wedding day. Her warmth, bubbly personality & passion for what she does shines through in each & every conversation with her.

We both genuinely enjoyed the engagement session & left feeling so confident in having chosen her to be our wedding photographer. Flash forward to our wedding day, Bridget exceeded any & all expectations. Her creative eye, her excitement & genuineness all blended together to make the perfect person to have by our sides all day. From the second Bridget got to the venue, her energy & happiness were contagious. Talk about a hype girl! She made me feel like a bridal vision the entire day & she was undoubtedly the right choice for a wedding day photographer. We received countless compliments from family, bridal party members and guests about her. We received sneak peaks very quickly after our wedding (& there were SO many more than we expected). We received our full gallery in the allotted time provided in the contract & they did not disappoint! I haven’t been able to stop looking at the pictures since we’ve received them & it further reinforced that she was the best person to capture memories we will cherish for a lifetime. If you are in the market for a photographer, especially for your wedding day, hire Bridget & I promise you will not be disappointed! Bridget’s organization, attention to detail, talent & personality made the process seamless.

Sara with Iris Rose photography did a truly incredible job photographing our elopement, we couldn’t be happier. She took absolutely beautiful photos, delivered them according to schedule, was one of our witnesses, and gave great guidance to help us feel comfortable during photos. Not only that, but our elopement was up on our favorite hiking trail at sunset, so she did all that PLUS hiked up with all her gear, and hiked back down after the sun set. She went above and beyond- literally. Major props as well to her husband, Ryan, who helped, too! For gorgeous photos that take you straight back to your special moment, creativity, warmth, and a stellar experience- BOOK SARA! We can’t recommend her and her talents highly enough!!

I’m Madysen (yes s-e-n) Kuhstoss (try saying that with mispronouncing haha)! I'm 4'11 (so close), but try making up for my height in my personality; you could almost call me your "mini-hypewoman"! I’m based in Indianapolis but always willing to travel when documenting your love story! My husband Collin and I got married in the middle of April 2021 and we have a little corgi named Leo who we are crazy for! A few of my favorite things are Jesus, thriller movies/tv shows, coffee dates, sweatpants, Texas Roadhouse, and my amazing clients! That's me in a nutshell, but I can't wait to hear about you!

Madysen was amazing! She was so sweet and brought much needed energy when we were exhausted! She was so easy to work with and helped us feel more at ease for our photos. Highly recommend!

Hi! I'm Taylor a Georgia based Wedding photographer, mommy, and cheesecake lover. Obsessed with: Family, Naps, and good books. I’ve been keeping it real since 1997. I started my business when I was just 17 years old. Since then I have turned that small hobby into a full time career photographing beautiful couples love stories. Throughout my 8 years in business, I have been lucky enough to photograph over 200 weddings throughout Georgia and the other southern states.

As a wedding officiant, I have the pleasure of working with so many different vendors, photographers in particular, and I can honestly say that Taylor is one of the best! Working with her is always fabulous! Her professionalism, creativity, and dedication to capturing perfect moments and special details are second to none. She puts couples at ease with her easy going nature which helps them to relax around her and act naturally, in turn allowing her to capture a variety of gorgeous shots. During the ceremony itself, she blends seamlessly into the background while effortlessly capturing the essence of the heart of the ceremony. So much so that, as the officiant, I am unaware that she is even there which I think is a perfect approach for that particular part of the wedding day! Taylors work is truly beautiful and her commitment to ensuring her couples have the best possible photography experience attention to detail and commitment to excellence makes her a standout choice for any wedding or special event. I highly recommend Taylor to couples seeking not only beautiful photographs that will serve as lasting memories, but also a stress-free, authentic, personable experience on their big day.

My name is Abby, a Midwest based wedding + boudoir photographer who's really obsessed with her job. I've gotten to see how directly photos can impact people. As we grow up, we realize how priceless photos are and how quality pictures become prized possessions. It's a moment in time you can forever look back on. It's easy to take pictures, but it's hard to capture moments. I'll love making magic with you, because everyone has some magic in them that deserves to be celebrated.

I was referred to Abby and I could not be more grateful for that! I knew she was the perfect person to capture our wedding day and needed to book her! She was easy-going, genuine, fun, and kind! She not only made us feel at ease to know she had our backs through the whole planning process but she made us feel like we had a friend who was rooting us on through it all! From the initial meeting, engagement photos, and to to our wedding day Abby was there for us and made sure that our day would be absolutely seamless and as fun as possible while capturing our stunning photos! On the wedding day, Abby was organized, punctual, and ready to go to capture our day from start to finish! She executed a perfect timeline and made sure everyone was ready and were they needed to be! An absolute rockstar for that! We received so many compliments on how wonderful Abby was from our guests! Abby is extremely talented at capturing the moments throughout the day! She knew we were not huge center of attention people. We wanted our photos to be captured in real time and those surrounding us! She did absolutely that! She captured all the love and happiness throughout the whole day! Each photo was absolutely stunning! For anyone looking for a photographer, I could not recommend Abby enough! She will make your day seamless and capture the most beautiful photos! She will make you feel like a friend and not just working with another vendor! We are forever thankful to have worked with Abby and cannot wait to continue to work with her!

Hey!! Congratulations and I'm so excited you're here! My name's Lissa (pronounced "Lyss-uh") and photographs are my jam! Also my jam? Bright colors, the lamest jokes, floral everything, weird history, and awesome ghost stories. I'm a total mother hen / perpetual big sister and I'm mom to Max, Henry, and Penelope. I love creating. I garden. I sew. I crochet. I design ridiculously cute tee shirts. But most of all? I freaking love creating photographs. A professional photographer since 2011 (eek!), my photographs are bright, happy, and totally meant to hit you in the feels. But most of all? They're a total party!

It was such a pleasure having Lissa as the photographer for our wedding. She has taken several photos for me and my family throughout the years, and each time the photos have always been exactly what we wanted. Her photos are vibrant, full of color, and full of feeling. Lissa was sure to respond quickly to contracts, questions, and provided information in a timely manner. She listened to our desires and concerns, and when needed she provided feedback that helped us feel more comfortable and excited to work with her. She is incredibly easy to work with her. She was flexible with any photo requests that came up in the moment, and she guided and directed us for other shots she felt would turn out well when we weren't sure what to do next. She was professional and courteous to all of our wedding guests and yet always made sure to prioritize our (the bride and groom) desires and time as opposed to the rest of our wedding party. She had a happy, yet focused disposition while working with us. That focus was evident in the BEAUTIFUL pictures she took. She perfectly captured our joy that day. Turnaround time was better than expected, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We have no regrets with our choice of wedding photographer. She's amazing!

My husband wasn’t wanting pictures, but during the wedding and afterwards, he was so grateful we had Ashlee capture it. Her style was what I was dreaming of, and if you’re worried about posing, she helps coach your poses. Our wedding was a fantastic day, and she’s one of the reasons it was.

We had the most amazing experience with The Jeffries. They truly captured every heartfelt moment and turned it into a stunning visual representation of our love story. From our initial consultation to the day of the wedding, they showed great care and attention to detail. They arrived early, were professional yet like extra friends, and made sure to capture all the little details that we had put so much thought into. They truly went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera, which allowed our true personalities to shine through. This resulted in a beautiful collection of images and highlight film that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Their creativity and skill were evident in every shot. The quality of their work surpassed all of our expectations and left us completely stunned. The editing and final presentation of the photos and video took our breath away, and we couldn't be happier with the result. Forever grateful to this incredible husband and wife duo for capturing every moment of our day so perfectly. Thanks to their work, we can relive our special day again and again. They were, without a doubt, the best choice we could have made for our wedding photography and videography needs. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing experience and stunning results.

Kyra was our photographer for our wedding/engagement photos and she was the absolute best. I am honestly not the best at writing reviews, but she made our experience so amazing that I feel like everyone deserves to hear about her! From the instant we met, I felt like we had been old friends. Her kindness made our experience infinitely better because it was obvious that she was genuinely so excited for every part of our big day (which is the kind of energy that everyone needs on their wedding day)! Kyra also went above and beyond with every detail of our photos. She was so good at listening to us, willing to work with us, and wanting to get to know us as people, that she was able to capture our wedding photos above and beyond all of our expectations. I LOVE looking at our BEAUTIFUL photos, and I feel like they are such a good portrayal of the whole day. It takes us right back to all of those precious memories. We really enjoyed our time working with her, and we are honestly sad that we don't get to hangout with her like that everyday!!

Hello! My name is A.R. Clark. I am a photographer and videographer from Bangor, Maine. I love the joy that comes with capturing these magnificent days, and I aim to show everything about your wedding in gorgeous tones and lighting. My style is best described as vintage with influences from old hollywood. I have worked every type of wedding and I love to travel!

Awarded Best of Zola
We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.

I have been a wedding photographer for the last 10 years between Texas and Colorado. I currently travel between both capturing weddings and events all over the country. I love wedding photography because you get to be part of a life event and capture all of those moments.

As a bride, I feel it is my responsibility to be completely transparent with all future brides and their families when wanting to book someone as important as their photographer and videographer. That being said, I found Caitlin through Facebook chatter when I was planning my wedding, and although there were others that impressed me- Caitlin's work stood out the most. Her skills behind the camera made me truly believe in the beauty of the world, had me in awe of the uniqueness she found in others, and convinced me that she is the perfect fit for our big day. I spoke to Caitlin for months before even booking our engagement photos, and when that day came, she showed me her skills in real time. Posing, correcting posture, finding the right balance of light, bringing props- she showed up and showed out big time. My fiance and I were both thrilled with how the photos came out, and were even more impressed that we liked the unedited versions too; you don't always get the best of both worlds when it comes to photographers who can make you look good in edited and unedited photos- but Caitlin did. Her and I were in constant communication because being a bride isn't easy, and being indecisive runs right through all of us at every stage of planning, but she was a trooper and guided me through everything. I kept going back and forth on how long I should have her there, if we should do videography, where I wanted her for getting ready, etc. As someone who has never been married, it was nice having someone help me through the second biggest decision of my life. When the wedding day came, she was there before I was, awaiting the gates to open to ensure she had enough time to get detail shots and getting ready photos. I didn't have a maid of honor or even bridesmaids, and my husband didn't have a best man or groomsmen, so it made the day easier too. However, Caitlin dedicated time to getting all of the pictures of us getting ready so that when the day was over and we could finally look back on our day, all of the moments were captured- even me doing my friends hair and having a mini panic attack over my dress being zipped. It was all there, because she ensured that our day was nothing but magic. Our wedding wasn't what we intended it to be- there were supposed to be 45 guests and a majority dropped out, leaving our entire wedding and reception at 18 (including us). Our wedding wasn't as long as we had hoped, nor as grand, but Caitlin made sure we felt special and that nothing was left unseen or captured by her or her husband. Although our wedding ended two hours earlier than we wanted, Caitlin was beyond helpful and kind- never hesitating to give us a kind or encouraging word, and being so out-of-this-world generous. If I haven't made it clear to you yet, then I'll say it in simple terms-- HIRE HER. Whether it is for your wedding, graduation, proposal, family photos; whatever the occasion. Hire Caitlin, and I promise you will not be disappointed in the results she provides.
