Hi! I'm Scott. Wedding & Elopement Photographer, outdoor adventurer, & world traveler serving East Tennessee, Western NC and beyond! There's nothing I'd rather be doing than photographing special moments in beautiful places. I believe that providing great images goes hand in hand with building a good personal connection. It's important to work with someone you vibe well with! In my free time, I love hiking, biking, and rock climbing in the mountains—any chance to get out into nature and explore.

Scott and his team are absolutely incredible! Our photos from our day are so beautiful, and absolutely nothing was missed! Our video is utterly stunning and even 3 months later, I am still hearing comments from our guests about how great his team was! Responsive and organized, and overall so attentive and thorough and just brings excellent vibes also!

White Fox was an amazing company to work with! We were nervous at first not being able to meet the photographer until the day of but I promise they know exactly what they were doing. Ben was selected to photograph our special day and not only was he very kind but he made sure we got all the shots we wanted, had great ideas for things we didn’t even think of and made us feel so at ease. We were so excited to get our pictures back and so antsy but it was all worth the wait. They were STUNNING to say the least and the moody editing style turned out better than we could have imagined. Thank you again for creating these memories that will last us a lifetime and that we will always remember our special day by.

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. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

It's weird describing the "me behind the camera" but I'll start with the fact I'm the mother of two of the cutest identical twin girls you've ever seen. This business allows me to spend most of my time with them and even some of my work time and for that I am forever thankful. While finishing my Bachelor's Degree in Middle Grades Education at Western Carolina University photography sort of just happened. By the time I graduated I knew that photography was what I wanted to do full time. I shot a wedding the day I was supposed to walk the stage at graduation and I've been chasing light with some of the sweetest couples in the world ever since.

Vicki is a wonderful photographer. Super easy to work with, communicates well, fun, and professional. Her photography style is absolutely lovely and would capture anyone's wedding day beautifully. Wholeheartedly recommend 10/10!

Fox & Owl Studio 
Waynesville, NC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

I am a Mama to two red headed blue eyed babies and wife to a tender hearted bearded mountain man. Fox & Owl is my love story with that man and it's a small whisper of my deep + intimate relationship with the natural world. I'm a fiery woman as a Leo sun and Sag moon + rising. I cuss a lot and I break out into a terrible British accent when I'm excited - especially when I'm shooting with my clients. I love dark humor and I get tickled at the smallest things. You can find me at home with my fam and my dogs, deep in the woods howling at the moon, around a fire with an endless glass of Scotch, or enjoying a cuppa in my favorite coffee shop.

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.

Brandi-Lee Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was fast and easy - they were always quick to respond to our questions and requests. On the day of the wedding, Brandi-Lee and her team were professional, talented, and made sure to capture all the important moments. The photos they delivered were truly amazing, and we're so grateful to have such beautiful memories of our special day. Brandi-Lee went above and beyond to ensure we received the full value of the package we had paid for. We couldn't recommend them highly enough to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

The quality of their work and overall value was exceptional - they were accurate, collaborative, and adaptive, delivering truly beautiful photos that captured all the special moments of our big day.

Hey there! My name is Savanah and I started photography full time back in 2021 and it has been absolutely amazing. I have met so many amazing couples, and helped capture the most important day of their lives. I’m very big on candid moments and in between of your wedding day, from the little looks from across the room, to grandpa breaking it down on the dance floor. My goal is to capture every single thing that makes YOUR day special.

Savanah Marie Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with on our wedding day. From the beginning, their communication was easy-going, clear, and consistent, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. On the day itself, Savanah was so considerate - it was freezing outside, which made it difficult to take photos, but she gave us ample breaks to warm up and recover from the unrelenting wind. She also made sure to capture all the poses I had requested. While we haven't received the full collection back yet, the sneak peeks we've seen are absolutely captivating and such high-quality. The photos beautifully capture our love story and the beauty of our wedding day. I have never felt more beautiful and my husband feels the exact same way. Savanah's work is truly of the highest value, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

Connection is the key to meaningful photographs and an experience that you'll remember for a lifetime. I will laugh with you, cry with you, and photograph your wedding day as if it's my own. You're not seen as just a client, you're a friend (and I'm your new favorite third wheel!). I limit my bookings to 15 weddings per year, so I can give each couple my full attention and the best experience possible. Filling my calendar with back to back weddings is not my goal...I want to have the time to leave you with the memory of a day well-spent laughing, exploring, soaking up the sun (or rain) and breathing in the moment - simply because we can!

As a wedding planner in the Florida Keys, I’ve been lucky enough to work with Margeaux on multiple occasions. Her work is always spectacular…if you want gorgeous sunset photos at your wedding, she’s your girl! Margeaux goes above and beyond for our clients…I’ve even seen her get in the water just to get that perfect angle! I highly recommend working with her!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

“Our photographer really took the time to connect with us, and we found that we shared a lot of common interests! She made us feel very comfortable, and completely followed our desires for candid and more relaxed photos. She was amazing at posing and directing us, as well as going with the flow and capturing what was happening in the moment. We couldn’t be more happy! We love all of the photos taken outside- our couples, wedding party, and golden hour photos feel so genuine and organic and I think that’s what our photographer really excelled in. Our golden hour photos specifically are very romantic and magical- definitely our favorites! I cannot give enough praise to the level of communication given during the planning process. Wedding planning is hard and it gets tricky to keep track of everything. From Darcy at the start getting us booked to Hannah throughout the planning process, I was so grateful for the texts and emails keeping me updated and on track. I am very grateful to have found OLAS, and have already recommended them to my friends getting married next year.”

My husband is my second photographer, so we come as a photo team! Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I Got You!

Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

Trust me when I say that this won’t be the last time we use him!

We are in-love with his aesthetic and his work! 3. **Professionalism** - I don’t think we’ve met anyone as invested as Albert! He always had a plan and was ready for anything! Albert is a perfectionist - he was so intentional with every moment and could get inspiration from anything! Seeing him lose himself in his work was truly inspiring and made our time together so much more meaningful. 4. **Communication** - From the beginning, middle, to the end - Albert was always present. He was always early - to ensure he was set up and to get a clear vision of what could be done! He was very accessible at any moment we needed him to obtain any clarifications or even to share an idea! He was so clear and concise of what we could expect from him and what he could do to make it better! 5. **Comfort and Ease** - Albert has a gift of making anyone around him comfortable! He makes you aware that his customers are His priority and will do anything to ensure you leave satisfied!! We felt so comfortable trying a whole bunch of things! He can truly make ANYONE look good & will give you the confidence that you need to feel secure! 6. **Deposit Process** • The financial portion of our agreement is exactly what I envisioned it would be! He was flexible and gave us a reasonable amount of time to turn in what corresponded to us.

My now husband and I are usually not "photo people", as we tend to be more introverts than anything else, and she went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Her professionalism and guidance during the shoot can be described as more than stellar. I will definitely recommend her to all of my friends who will be getting married soon.
