Would you like to remember everything? Well, if you ask me the answer is YESSSS! When it comes to your wedding day, of course you want to remember everything! You want to remember all the details you put so much hard work into, your new spouse wiping away those happy tears as you walk down the aisle, and your grandparent getting down on the dance floor!

We booked Darby for our engagement photos and our wedding back in June. I honestly cannot recommend her enough. She is so kind and fun to work with, talented at her craft, and creative in her vision. Every photo we have received is amazing and beautiful. Our photos truly look like art and I cannot wait to get some printed out. She made our wedding look like a dreamy fairytale and worked so well even when we had to take photos outside in the rain! Her positive attitude was infectious and she made our day that much more fun. Thank you Darby!!!

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? Eloping is a coming home to yourself and your beloved because you’re boiling all the details of your day down to what really matters. With that extra space in your day, void of distractions, you're truly free to live out your day with intention. I would be so thrilled and honored to come alongside you and help capture and craft your best day ever!

Awarded Best of Zola
Don't miss your chance to have Kayla as your photographer. As a fellow vendor I get excited when I hear that she is the photographer. She takes the time to cultivate the experience to the couple, guides them through all the needed steps, and encourages them to take time and just enjoy the moment without rushing to get to the next thing. And the photos are always amazing!

Raven Shutley 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Athens, GA

Wedding photographs should honor your relationship and highlight your unique connection. More than simple validation, they are a declaration that love knows no boundaries. So, it’s important to find a photographer who understands the full scope of your story, someone who sees both the broader significance and its personal meaning. And someone who captures it all through unforgettable photographs. When it comes to photography, it takes a non-traditional perspective to look beyond the obvious and capture the hidden bits of who you two really are.

Raven documented my wedding day with such care and clarity. In her pictures, I see the settings, people, and details, when it all happened. Lush greenery and orange leaves where my partner and I said our vows. My aunt smiling as she met my baby daughter. Hugs with guests after our ceremony. The flowers on my alternative style dress. Amazingly, she got many of these shots when the people in the photos did not realize it. They're not only a killer record of what happened that day. Her pictures are lovely and naturalistic with vibrant colors. Killer wedding day coverage is not the only thing you get with Raven. She is great to work with throughout the process, always warm, well-organized and punctual.

I had the pleasure of working with Krista in 2022 for my clients’ wedding and she is one of my favorite photographers I’ve ever worked with as a wedding planner. She was very responsive when I reached out with questions on behalf of my clients. She was very well organized with providing a photo checklist before the wedding. On wedding day, she arrived early with a smile and captured even more photos than my clients were expecting. Their photos turned out so beautiful and high-quality. The bride even cried a little bit when she saw the final photos. I highly recommend Krista and her team for anyone’s special day, whether that is a wedding, anniversary party, or any other special occasion!

I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough.

Not only did they guarentee quick turn around on my photos (I think their words were "before you're back from your honeymoon") but the quality of work speaks for itself in the photos. They were such an joy to work with- often splitting up to cover ground and their easy banter with each other puts you right at ease when they're pointing those big cameras at you.
