Hi, I'm Hannah! I’m a Greenville, SC wedding photographer, available for weddings throughout the Carolinas, Georgia, and beyond. I love soft light, rich color, timeless edits, happy tears, a focus on the little details, and couples who are really, really into each other.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'm a wedding coordinator, and working with Hannah was SUCH a dream. She was responsive, extremely kind, helpful, and totally on top of her game at the wedding we worked together. I didn't have to worry if she was on time or ready for the next event - she was always there, ready and smiling! Her pictures were also perfect - the editing was just what the couple wanted, and she returned them quickly. Highly recommend her!

Hey There! I’m Hannah - an Intimate Wedding Photographer originally from the coast of Virginia but stumbled my way to the North Georgia Mountains which I now proudly call home! I love finding new adventures while exploring new places! I started my Photography journey capturing families but soon realized that my heart was completely drawn to capturing love & the bond that two people share! I describe my photography style as more Photojournalistic while being heavily focused on capturing more intimate/Romantic & candid shots! I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions between two people on their wedding day!

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.

Since 2013, I’ve been capturing love stories in a way that’s timeless, authentic, and uniquely yours.

Golden Hour Images was the perfect choice for our engagement photography. From our first interaction, their communication was effective, kind, fast, and easygoing. The quality of their work was amazing, with beautiful, high-quality photos that perfectly captured all the special moments of our day. They made our engagement pictures so special and fun, even incorporating our camping-themed shoot and being so patient with us and our dog. We couldn't have asked for a better photography team to document our engagement , and we're thrilled with the results.

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.

I really can’t say enough about how truly amazing Brandi is. She was with me from the start of my planning process to the end providing me with so much support and guidance. She was more than just a photographer. She is truly one of kind. From helping me coordinate a timeline, giving vendor suggestions, oh and not to mention helping me throw together a whole wedding in 72hours due to the Tennessee flooding. She is reliable and such a joy to work with. She made me feel so special. I just received our full album and let me tell you I am blown away. The quality of the photos are outstanding and I received so many!!! I am amazed at her attention to detail and ability to capture every special moment. I cannot recommend Brandi enough! She was such a blessing to work with and all around a wonderful photographer.

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.

Vogue-published and based in NYC, I create cinematic, editorial imagery that feels more like legacy than coverage.

From candlelit villas in Italy to black-tie weekends in New York, every story is crafted with style and soul. Signature collections begin at $8K, with most couples investing $10K–$20K. Multi-day destination weekends with full creative direction can reach $50K+, depending on travel and scope.

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.

Hey y'all, I'm so happy you are here! I'm Payton. I'm based in Asheville, NC but will travel to wherever your love takes you. When I'm not on a photoshoot I'm either traveling, hiking, or spending time with my family. I have been a photographer for 10 years and photographing weddings for 5. I have a BFA in Photography from RMCAD. I LOVE getting to know you and helping you plan out every minute detail of your wedding day. My passion is capturing the essence of my couple's love, every story is uniquely you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Payton was a hidden gem that I found through an intense Instagram/Facebook search for a wedding photographer. I was starting to get discouraged with the outrageous pricing of some of the big name photographers in the Birmingham, AL area and disappointed with the gallery examples of some of the cheaper options. When she messaged me back, her rates are so reasonable and affordable and her Instagram really shows how vibrant and dreamy her previous galleries have turned out. I felt like I could really trust her with capturing our special memories, I was right. Prior to the wedding, she sent out a questionnaire asking about our photography priorities and mindset. Also recently she started including an engagement session when you book her for a wedding package!! A steal! We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience with a Payton. She also is a traveling queen, so if you’re not in Birmingham, AL, don’t be discouraged!

Within such short notice, she coordinated meeting time, researched the area for photo ops, and was ready with so many poses for us. She even agreed to be a witness for our ceremony! Working with her during the shoot was a joy. She was very fun and upbeat, making it an even more enjoyable experience. And the pictures turned out AMAZING! So so thankful for Josie and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated photographer who will give you the most beautiful photos.

From the moment we first spoke, she was incredibly professional yet friendly - it felt like we were talking to a best friend we'd known for years. Their communication style put us at ease throughout the entire process. And the quality of their work is truly next level. They are so talented and detail-oriented, capturing all the special moments of our day with such care and artistry.

We are forever grateful for their expertise and passion, and we cannot recommend them highly enough.

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!!

Hello, I'm Kelly! Balsam Portraits and Weddings began in 2020, inspired by my deep love for storytelling and the mountains I’ve always called home. Raised in Hendersonville, NC, I cherish capturing intimate weddings where personalities shine, emotions flow, and every day is uniquely its own. I focus on the real, in-between moments—the quiet glances, the laughter, and the details that matter most. My goal is to document your wedding with honesty and artistry, creating memories that feel as real decades from now as they do today.

We hired Kelly at Balsam to photograph our wedding! She was nothing short of professional, timely, and incredibly fun to work with. We had around 100 guests not including wedding parties, and Kelly managed to photograph all the important, goofy, and treasured moments throughout the whole day. She seemed to be everywhere at once and missed nothing, all without me (the bride) hardly even noticing when and where she was shooting. Getting the photos back was like reliving one of the best days of our lives. She also was kind and fliexible enough to help us figure out a livestream setup so my husband’s very dear grandfather, too sick to travel for the event, was able to be included in the ceremony. The whole day went off so smoothly, Kelly was on point the whole time, and now we have gorgeous shots of all our favorite moments of the day. We couldn’t be more grateful to Balsam. I’ll also mention she shot our engagement photos as well - if I start talking about how perfect that day was, as well as the photos that came out of it, I’ll never stop. Nothing short of perfect.

Andrea-Marie is a fine art documentary wedding photographer specializing in romantic, editorial-style imagery. Blending candid moments with timeless elegance, she crafts a visual story that captures the genuine emotions of your wedding day. With a thoughtful and refined approach, Andrea provides a seamless experience, offering personalized guidance throughout your wedding journey. 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.

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for over 10 years, and raising our two sweet boys on this little sandbar we call home is a dream come true. While we are based on the OBX, we happily serve couples on the Outer Banks and Beyond, and enjoy spending the winter months in Costa Rica.

From our first inquiry, Courtney Hathaway Photography was incredibly responsive, informative, and professional in every aspect. She took the time to understand our vision and provided helpful guidance throughout the planning process. On the wedding day, Courtney and her team blended seamlessly into the background, capturing elegant, timeless, and stunning photos that we will cherish forever. Since our wedding Courtney has captured every milestone in our families lives. She’s been there to capture our engagement, wedding, newborn photos and Christmas cards! We wouldn’t have anyone else!
