Hey there- I'm Joanna, but feel free to call me Jo! My world has always been filled with photography- through all the years and different cameras, it's always been my biggest passion and love. I am a travel enthusiast and I will always be down to hike up a mountain or explore a new city. My favorite meals are anything that include coffee or sushi and I am a firm believer that there is no such thing as "too much chocolate." Most importantly, I am a lover of all love and will never get tired of documenting it.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I decided to elope to NYC from Scotland in 2022. Jo linked us to her Instagram profile following a post on a Facebook group and we instantly fell in love with her whole vibe. Her work stunning. We set up a video call to discuss what we wanted from the photos from our special day - Jo just got it and got us almost instantly. She knew NYC and where to get our pictures done but also allowed us to collaborate and explore on the day. Jo is passionate about her profession and passionate about giving you the best possible experience, flowing with love and positivity throughout. It’s super relaxed and fun. I wish she lived closer - she would absolutely be our go to for all our big life events! We wish we had been able to get Jo to do some of her film shots as well as they are absolutely STUNNING! She was able to get our sneak peak pictures to us quickly and wanted to absolutely nail it for the rest of the gallery and boy did she nail it. We genuinely could not imagine our wedding day without her capturing it for us 3

His understanding of what was important to us shone through in every interaction. On the day, they captured all the vibes - from the details of our dresses to the emotional moments that come with elopements/wedding days.

Erika of Erika El Photography is an adventurous elopement and intimate wedding photographer based in North Carolina and Colorado. Here to help you minimize stress and soak in every ounce of your day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Erika has such a fun-loving and sweet personality, that it would have been hard *not* to turn into friends! I've been lucky enough to see Erika's work first-hand as both a bride AND as a photographer who's worked with her! For my own wedding - even despite flying from out of state for our event, Erika was fresh-faced and good-humored, and did an excellent job at making us feel seen, loved, and at home in front of the camera. Since the wedding, she's also done a few portrait sessions for me and my husband (including a destination session for our 5 year anniversary)! As a photographer - I've both worked for Erika, and have hired her to work with me. She literally did such an amazing job at my own wedding that I now seek out her assistance whenever I need another photographer to come along on a destination wedding. TLDR; trust a photographer that other photographers hire. :)

  • Serves Cornelius, NC

Photography lives in the present and life is fast and fleeting. We want to remember what life we do have while we're here, evolving and growing. That’s why we’re always taking selfies, right? Like, I was here! Weddings are an emotional experience, a record of moments, journeys, visions and feelings, expressed in millions of unique byproducts. I'm the storyteller who gets the privilege of recording all of it coming together on one amazing, beautiful day.

Megan knocked it out of the part. She was so personable and professional. I am awful at “poses” and she made them easy and fun. My dog was along for the ride of getting ready pictures and she made sure to include him. She made me feel so comfortable. My bridesmaids were all very impressed with her as well. The pictures turned out better than anything I could imagine. If I could change anything it would be to book her longer. Seriously if you want one of your most special days photographed I cannot recommend her more. Thanks for everything Megan!! 3

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Jonathan. We found Jonathan through a friend, and he shot both our engagement photos and our wedding! Throughout the entire process, Jonathan wasn't just our photographer -- we really felt like he has become a dear friend to us. When we wanted to film our ceremony at the last minute due to family who weren't able to travel, Jonathan and Candice said, "No problem!" and filmed our ceremony, and got us the video within a week of the wedding, too, so our grandmas can watch. We will always treasure that he did that for us. Jonathan is incredibly talented and takes beautiful candid photos as well as the perfect posed photos we needed with our family. He is incredibly prompt in responding to questions, and delivers photos at an incredible speed too! We were able to view so many wonderful photos just 2 days after our wedding, and it's just the previews! And hey, if you are throwing a PARTY, Jonathan's dance floor photos cannot be beat. TL;DR: He is a gift to wedding photographers everywhere, we love Jonathan.

Pretty much a professional sucker for love. Charlotte, NC Wedding Photographer & Content Creator. Mix of digital and film. My style is evocative, photojournalistic, a dash of editorial. I'm here as your wedding bestie to tell your story photographically, in the most authentic way, with a pinch of curated chaos.

Yazmin was quite possibly the best part of my wedding day, besides getting married of course. Communication beforehand felt like I was talking to a friend, meeting her was like being around someone I’ve known for years, and having her take photographs throughout our elopement was so much fun. She saw my vision for what I wanted out of our elopement pictures and made them even better than I could have imagined. She is worth every penny AND MORE. I will 100% recommend Yaz to anyone and everyone and will use her in the future. I actually already added on a session for our post elopement party if that tells you how amazing she is!

Which I appreciated in the moment but will definitely appreciate in the years to come looking back on our pictures.
