  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Altavista, VA

Your wedding day should feel like you, relaxed and joyful, surrounded by the people you love most. It’s about real moments, laughter, happy tears, and the quiet in between times that make the day truly yours. I take a documentary style approach to capture those moments as they happen, so you don’t feel like your day is just a checklist. I step in when needed, like for family formals, but mostly focus on letting you enjoy your day while those candid moments unfold naturally.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emie such a joy to work with and I am so incredibly grateful to her for capturing our wedding authentically and with our goals and priorities in mind. We had a really specific vision of what we wanted our wedding to feel to like and she did a beautiful job capturing that. I was blown away by some of the images she captured. Not only were they stunning, it was evident she understood our vision and emphasized it. I really appreciated that she was so willing to traipse thru the forest on a hike with us mid day and that she made sure photograph everything we wanted but also things I didn’t even think to request. I also really appreciated that she captured true colors/ hues and really listened to what I liked/didn’t like stylistically. I also want to note that she has a lot of experience with animal photography and capturing images of my dogs was very important to me. Since my wedding, one of my dogs has passed away and I am so grateful to have such beautiful high quality images of him from our wedding . she was flexible with adjusting the contract to suit our specific needs and desires, and was really flexible day of with various last minute changes

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily and Dryden exceeded our expectations and we only knew them 10 days before the wedding day! We ran into an issue with our originally booked wedding photo + video crew only 2 weeks out before our big day, and in came this remarkably talented duo to save the day. We didn’t give them much time to coordinate and plan the photo + video for the day with us and yet, they did it all so effortlessly—all while genuinely getting to know us as a couple. They made the day go smoothly with our day-of schedule, brought the fun with some music during photos and fun posing prompts, were professional and courteous towards us and our guests, and deliver quality AND quantity! We are so happy to have had Fuse Media Studios capture our big day and to now call these two dear friends in the process is a special bonus!

Meet Skyla & Carrington! Lovers Photo Co was created after many years of working together for fun. Skyla is in school for Event Planning, which led her to asking Carrington to take a big leap to be small business owners! Now we are here, and ready to make the memories of your big day something you want to see over and over again. Vintage & Romantic is the vibe that we love creating. Wedding pricing starts at $1050!

Lovers Photo Co. was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication style is straightforward, kind, and incredibly helpful. The quality of their work is unmatched - they capture every detail with such precision and artistry, and their photos never disappoint. They already shot our engagement session and went above and beyond to ensure every single photo was one we were thrilled with. Now, with our wedding just a month away, they have made the entire process seamless and have made us feel so comfortable, which is saying a lot since I normally dislike being in front of the camera! I can't recommend Lovers Photo Co. enough, and I always make sure to tell everyone how amazing they are for engagements, elopements, weddings, and so much more.

Rustic Rose Photography

  • Serves Altavista, VA

Hi, I'm Liz! I'm based in Lynchburg, VA. I moved here from Los Angeles where I studied Fashion Design and Merchandising. Photography has been a huge passion of mine since I was in middle school but one class in college that really sparked my interest again. When the Pandemic hit, I was 6 months pregnant and starting to realize that I didn't enjoy my job anymore. I was so tired of working 50-60 hours a week and realized the most important thing to me was to be there to raise my child. So, that was that and here I am.

Working with Rustic Rose Photography was the best experience! She completed both engagement and wedding pictures for us. I am not someone who loves to be in front of a camera, but Liz uses really natural prompts to make you feel like yourself and feel good. At my wedding, she was really supportive and even checked in with me to see if I needed water or food. She’s always prompt and fun to work with. Hiring her was one of the best decisions I made when wedding planning. I can’t wait to scheduled more sessions with her in the future because she has a way of capturing the warmth of a moment in such a special way.

Kanded LLC

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Altavista, VA

Hi! We're Kiersten and Enrique, the faces behind Kanded! Our vibe summed up in three words: Creative, Inclusive, Emotive. Since childhood, we've both had a strong love for art. Enrique's small town upbringing and love for writing infuses our images with warmth and nostalgia. Kiersten's passion for photography started as a young child on her Polaroid where she began her creative visual storytelling. When we're not creating, you'll find us on the hunt for vintage treasures, sinking our toes into the sand (and missing our beloved cats), or enjoying quality time at home with our three adorable fur babies: Ellie, Lola, and Jax.

I recently had an engagement session done with Kanded, and it was everything I could have asked for! I had a very specific vision in mind, and Kiersten and Enrique nailed it. From helping pick a location, doing camera tricks to help achieve the look I wanted (think dreamy vintage fairytale)- they were so helpful and attentive every step of the way! An added bonus is that you’re getting two photographers for the price of one, so you can’t go wrong booking with them :)

We can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from.

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

I first heard about Completely Captured when my husband (then fiancé) booked Elizabeth for our engagement session. We loved the photos so much that we knew we had to book her again for our elopement. Elizabeth’s communication and planning were exceptional. She was incredibly flexible with dates, understanding our need to finalize locations closer to the ceremony. We scheduled a phone call to discuss our vision, and she beautifully captured the inspiration photos I shared. She also helped plan the photography timeline and was proactive with poses and lighting suggestions, which I greatly appreciated. On our elopement day, Elizabeth was professional, friendly, and prepared with all the necessary equipment. She made us and our family, including our french bulldog, feel completely comfortable and even stayed longer to ensure we got all the shots we wanted. The final gallery exceeded all expectations. She even shared sneak peeks the same day, which was such a thoughtful touch. Our family loved the photos so much that we made albums for them, and everyone kept commenting on her incredible work. What stood out most was how personable Elizabeth was—she felt like more than a photographer; she became a friend. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any wedding or elopement. She’s a talented professional and a joy to work with!

I'm Abby! and I’m hopelessly obsessed with love. There’s nothing like watching a couple look into each other’s eyes and realize they just got married. Being able to capture that moment- and then deliver it to the couple to keep forever- it’s truly the best. I’m here to capture so much more than just memories. I’m here to capture feeling. . The sweet glances that make your fingertips tingle. The look that makes your heart thump in your chest. The loopy butterflies in your stomach as you’re about to walk down the aisle. Those feelings. The photos I produce allow you to hold those feelings in your hand, and keep them safe for eternity.

ABBY IS INCREDIBLE. I booked Abby after another photographer I had booked was no longer able to do the job. I was in such a funk and I was terrified to find someone new. Abby had such a great vibe from the start and her skills are clearly magic. She made us feel comfortable right from the start. We had a blast together at our engagement shoot and I felt so safe for my wedding that I didn’t even feel the need to give her specific “shots” just the overall vibes! She read me and my vibe and knocked it out of the park. She was not just my photographer on my wedding day, she was a friend! I’m so lucky to call her a friend now, even after our wedding! Booking Abby will be one thing you absolutely do not regret! DO IT!

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

We were recently married in June and had McKenna as our photographer and absolutely LOVED her work!! First off, communication was so easy throughout the whole process. She was so sweet and accommodating to everything. We did our engagement photos with her and she drove all the way from Charlotte to Duke! Leading up to the wedding, we had a few phone calls to plan logistics and she was so organized it make the whole process so easy! On the wedding day I didn’t have to worry about anything photo related. She made sure to capture every moment we wanted without putting any added stress on us. If you’re looking for a photographer who also hypes you up to make the process more fun, look no further! Can’t recommend her enough!

We had an amazing experience working with Pluvia Studios as our wedding photographer and videographer. He was incredibly intentional and truly listened to the shots and edits we wanted, which made the final video feel so personal and meaningful. Especially since our wedding was at different locations in San Francisco, Presidio, and our local church, I loved how our package cohesively looked natural, fresh and beautiful. During our first intake call he was concise and walked through the package we were interested in. We were in awe by the timeless and beautiful photo gallery and videos we received that we’ll cherish for a lifetime. JayDee was also very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. We’re so grateful to have our day captured so beautifully and highly recommend him and his team.
