Vega Foster Photography

Opelika, AL
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

As a photographer, my goal is to express your individuality through a collection of photos. We start by taking the time to connect over lunch or a cup of coffee. I'll ask the important questions to learn more about you and your story - This allows me to tailor our time together to best reflect you. This platform of connection allows us to be communicative during the wedding day, while encouraging your natural personality to shine once you're in front of the camera. This friendly approach leads to a wholesome gallery filled with artful composition and playful candids.

Vega Foster Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Vega's communication was fast, friendly and clear - she was a true professional who made it clear what to expect and customized it for what I was looking for. The quality of her work is exceptional, with a creative and high-attention-to-detail approach that really captured the beauty and emotion of our special day. She paid careful attention to every detail, making sure I looked and felt my best while still allowing me to fully enjoy the moment :) The final photos are absolutely gorgeous - she has a true gift for capturing the magic of a wedding day. Vega is a genuinely kind woman who clearly cares about her clients. I highly recommend hiring her for your wedding, she will make you laugh, feel the moment, look beautiful, and address any concerns you may have. Vega understands the assignment!

Hi there! We are Cody and Haley, your friendly neighborhood wedding photographers and 10 years ago we weren't wedding photographers. We were in your shoes, planning our wedding. Our day was crazy, and it flew by so fast that we didn't get to enjoy the day. Our biggest regret was in our photography. We didn't realize what these moments would mean to us 10 years later. Moments were missed, we looked awkward, and we had no idea what we wanted out of our pictures. We became wedding photographers to help keep you from going through the same mistakes that we made. Our job as photographers is to take the stress off of your shoulders.

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.

Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. 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. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

I believe your wedding should feel like a memory you can step back into — the laughter, the quiet glances, the way your hands find each other when no one’s watching. I photograph it all as if it were a film, blending the beauty of timeless portraits with the soul of real moments. Wherever your day unfolds, I’m there — no travel fees, only the story we’ll tell together

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.

My name is Luca, and I’m the artist behind Bringer of Light Photography. A solo-run, heart-driven, editorial-meets-documentary brand for the tender-hearted, brave, and the deeply human. My work is built on the idea that photographs are not just decorations, but inheritances. I’ll meet you where you are. awkward, giddy, tearful, reverent, undone - and we’ll co-create something brave + beautiful. This is not a factory. It’s me, showing up with my whole heart to create something that feels true to you. If you want your story told with integrity, emotion, and reverence - You're in the right place.

Hiring Luca as our wedding photographer was hands down one of the best decisions we made during the entire planning process. From our very first conversation, I knew we were in the presence of someone not just with technical skill, but with a heart for people, and an artist’s eye for light and emotion. Luca somehow managed to be everywhere at once, catching every moment we didn’t even realize was happening. Her ability to capture the feeling of the day, not just the events, still blows my mind. Our sneak peeks came within 24 hours and made me cry happy tears all over again. The full gallery? I can’t even explain. We didn’t just receive photos. We received a gift that I’ll be showing my grandchildren one day, saying, “This was the day I married your grandpa.” Luca, thank you for treating our day like it mattered to you, too. For anyone even thinking about booking her: do it before someone else gets your date. Seriously.

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.

Amanda’s work speaks for itself. Her photography isn’t just a snapshot in time - she creates true art. She’s also super calm and easy going (a major plus on what can be a hectic day). From her portrait and group shots, to shots during the wedding, to still life shots of the cake, rings, or outfits, to journalistic style shots of the reception, she captures it all with a beautiful eye. What I love most is that her style is unique, with such stunning use of light and shadow. Her photography was easily the best thing we spent money on for our wedding. I highly recommend Amanda Summerlin Photography.
