The Best Wedding Photographer and Videographer!
•Verified review
•Zara and J.•Dec 17, 2024
Literally could not be happier that we went with Nathan as our wedding photographer and videographer for our Asheville wedding! From the moment he arrived, he brought such a fun, energetic, and creative vibe that put everyone at ease. Nathan captured every special moment beautifully—our photos are absolutely stunning, and the highlight video brought tears to our eyes. He truly has an eye for detail and storytelling, and his creativity shines through in every shot. Not only is he incredibly talented, but he’s also a joy to work with—professional, personable, and so much fun. If you're looking for someone to capture your big day perfectly, Nathan is your guy. Highly recommend!
Our Photographer felt like part of our family!

Nathan! We love you. You made our wedding day feel so comfortable and exciting all at once. And now, looking back on our album ( and bonus highlight video!!! ) we get to relive all of it over and over and over. And we have! So many times! The best photographer and video we could imagine :) 100 stars!!!!!
Blown away!!

We cannot recommend Nathan highly enough! From the very first meeting, his positive energy and passion for his art were absolutely contagious. Nathan immediately put us at ease with his warm, friendly demeanor and made the entire process such a joy. Before we even saw the final results he brought such positivity and enthusiasm, making everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, including some camera-shy family members. Nathan felt like an extension of our family and wedding party, seamlessly blending in while still managing to capture everything. We are forever grateful!
Infectious enthusiasm and endless creativity!

He is absolutely kind, energetic, and professional throughout both of our shoots. ( we loved our engagement session so much we booked him right away for our wedding ! ) The photos and video came out beyond our wildest dreams. For two people who don't love being in front of the camera, I don't know how he does what he does. I never felt overly aware of the camera or like I was being posed. Yet somehow he pulled off the most amazing and epic photos and final video! Almost unbelievable. 10/10 recommend. The best around!
