The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

I began this journey several years ago (formerly as Brandi-Lee Photography). Recently, I had decided to transform my brand into a more intentional & creative art. Photography has become one way I can express myself creatively while freezing a moment in time. I'm especially drawn to documentary & lifestyle photography as I love how natural the emotions are in the photos. There is a story to be told & I look forward to helping capture it on film. I like to consider myself as a visual storyteller.

Overall, having her by our side on our special day was a joy. We could not have asked for a better wedding photography experience.

Our work involves a lot of interaction between you and your partner: the way you smile, hug, laugh and goof off together. We use natural light to create artistically genuine moments. Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time. Our ultimate goal is to be a companion with you throughout your wedding planning process as a friend, not a vendor. We're not someone who simply ‘gets the job done’— We're with you every single step of the way, from the first time we talk until your images are delivered.

From the first time we connected with Now And Forever Photography, their communication was quick and thorough. The quality of their work was exquisite - the photos they captured of our wedding day were absolutely amazing and beautiful. They did an incredible job of capturing all the key moments, from the ceremony to the reception, and truly documented every important detail of our special day. We feel so lucky to have had them as our photographers, and they did an absolutely amazing job that we will cherish forever.

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it!

I’m a wedding photographer drawn to quiet glances, soft light, and the kind of love that lingers long after the day is done. My work blends cinematic stillness with emotion—documenting each celebration with a poet’s eye and a romantic heart. I don’t just capture what happened—I preserve how it felt. Based in New York and traveling worldwide, I create timeless images that feel like memory and magic, carefully told and deeply felt.

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date. From the very first contact, he was incredibly responsive (super important to us), friendly and professional. His work looked great so we were excited - then we found out he was featured in Vogue! We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Amanda was the best choice for our wedding photographer. I was overwhelmed by the cost of other photographers and often felt like photos were too posed or stiff. We also had a lot of family dynamics to work with with several blended families. But Amanda's calm, kind, and patient personality immediately put us at ease. On the day of our wedding, Amanda blended seamlessly into the guests, capturing the most beautiful, fun, and editorial shots without us even realizing she was there. The value we received was incredible - the previews we've seen so far are beyond what we could have imagined, perfectly preserving all the special moments that made our day so unique and memorable.

Josie is easy to communicate with and responds promptly to all questions which made the planning process smooth. She adapts to the style of photos you would like - whether more portraits or more candid (or a mix of both). Within a week following our wedding she had sent us a link to access a bunch of sneak peak photos. Reliable, personable, professional, kind, talented are just some words to describe Josie. You will be at peace choosing Josie as a photographer. Josie we are SO grateful and blessed to have had you capture our wedding day - we will cherish our photos for many years to come.

Amanda is by far the best photographer I’ve worked with. She and her co shooter Renee are so personable and will put endless effort into making your day perfect. My videographer was late for my first look/ vows. Amanda didn’t hesitate to make sure she got photos, but also recorded it so we’d still be able to have footage. The whole day she went above and beyond to make sure we were getting all the photos we wanted, making sure the groom and I were eating and comfortable, she even jumped on the dance floor to get people dancing and keep the energy high! She got preview photos to me 3 days after the wedding. The preview was huge and amazing. If Amanda is available on your wedding day book her ASAP!!

Serving Asheville, North Carolina, and beyond, Andrea-Marie Photography creates heirloom-quality images that stand the test of time.

I have followed Andrea’s photography on social media for years because in my wildest dreams she is who I would have capture my fairytale moments. Well in 2024 I finally had the opportunity of a lifetime when she captured my elopement in Positano, Italy. She blew even my wildest dreams out of the water. If you want a photographer who is a quadruple threat Andrea is your person! She’s a visionary, wedding planner, confidante, and artist who compromises nothing to merge your vision with her talents in the most magical way. If you have ever wanted to plan your dream elopement, but don’t even know where to begin logistically Andrea is your person! Andrea is not only well versed in travel and local customs, but is also exceptional at doing her research to maximize the beauty of the destination in the most authentic way. Andrea was pivotal in navigating the language barrier while also finding the sweetest local team (hair and makeup artists, florists, driver, and boat captain, etc) to bring everything to life. From the perfect locations for photographs to curating the most Italy-inspired meals, snacks, and desserts Andrea found ways to compliment the sentiment of the day in every single way. If you want a photographer living out her calling, Andrea is your person! I truly believe her vocation is anointed, that she has been called to walk alongside couples to not only provide the most exceptional keepsake, but that she believes fully in the covenant of marriage and the full extent of celebration that it deserves. Her skill and competency with a camera is unmatched as is her ability to work with people. Andrea gave us the time of day to hear our thoughts and questions, provided organization, attention to detail, dynamic planning prior to and day of that made our wedding day feel at ease, yet purposeful. The amount of pride Andrea takes in her work and the way she cherishes her couples unfettered love stories is indisputable. As is the case with elopements we had to deal with different aspects of coastal weather and Andrea had contingency plans for all of it and probably other scenarios that we never considered because she took that on for our sake. I’ll say it again she accounts for it all so you can have the best day ever! I couldn’t have dreamed up a better day from start to finish or a more effective, powerful, and fierce photographer to help usher us into this next chapter. Andrea captured the essence of us so beautifully and she did so by providing affirmation, levity, poise, professionalism, energy, grace, and comfort throughout our day gallivanting around the Amalfi Coast. There is so much more I could say, but her heart and her work speak for themselves. From the bottom of our hearts we are profoundly grateful to have gotten to work with Andrea. Be prepared to want her to capture all of your moments or to just invite her over for coffee, she’s that incredible.
