Hey there! I’m Jesse Crossland, a wedding and portrait photographer passionate about capturing love in its most genuine and playful moments. My goal is to make every couple feel beautiful and comfortable in front of the camera, so their personalities shine through in every image. What drives me is seeing couples light up when they see their photos—those little, in-between moments of laughter, stolen glances, and pure happiness. It’s why I do what I do. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly cares about your experience and wants to make the process fun and stress-free, I’d love to chat!

Jesse was the photographer for my wedding and she was absolutely amazing! Jesse made everyone feel so comfortable and she was so coordinated! She had so many different photo ideas, which all turned out beautifully, and not having to come up with ideas took so much pressure off of me! Plus her kindness made it so no one looked stiff or awkward in my photos, and everyone was comfortable to be themselves on camera! Lastly Jesse coordinated with my venue to go above and beyond, if she had a question she went straight to them which took SO MUCH stress off of me! Jesse is THE BEST and she gave me the most beautiful photos of my wedding day!

Alex Faye Media exists to tell love stories exactly as they are—unfiltered, emotional, and alive. I’m not here to stage your day; I’m here to capture the real, messy, beautiful magic of it. From photography and videography to planning, every part of what I do is about creating space for couples to breathe, laugh, and actually enjoy their wedding. I love what I do because I get to turn moments into art, and every story I tell feels like its own kind of forever.

Alex and her team was so amazing! She stayed in contact with us up to the date and gave us a play by play of the plan. We had a smaller scale farm wedding and everything turned out amazing. Alex had great ideas and was even open to some of our ideas we really meshed great together. The turn around time to get the photos back was spectacular. I truly cannot say enough about her entire business, etiquette, professionalism, and overall ability to make you feel comfortable!!!

We’re Alexis and Nate, the husband-and-wife team behind Alexis Frazier Photography—offering wedding photography and videography across North Carolina and beyond. We’re here to capture your day with authenticity, artistry, and heart (plus a few laughs along the way).

Choosing to work with Alexis for our wedding photos was the easiest and best decision we made when wedding planning, and having Nate do videography was the cherry on top. I knew her work was phenomenal from her Instagram, but I had no idea what a fun, joyful, and uplifting presence she would be on the big day. EVERY bride needs an Alexis on their wedding day, concerned you don't look perfect? She's there to correct minor issues (amazing eye for detail, no errant bra straps here!) and hype you up in a way that improves your self esteem for life. Every photo you receive is so beautiful and there's no awkward "what do I do with my hands??" Moments because Alexis is there to effortlessly guide you into beautiful poses and moments you want preserved. The video Nate curated is so special to us and is such an incredible way to remember our wedding. Every little detail is given its moment, and the editing and video quality are flawless. These are truly the people you need on your team to ensure all of your special memories are preserved and treasured in the way you deserve.

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them!

The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day.

Their warmth and friendliness instantly put us at ease, making the entire experience feel effortless and fun. The calls before the wedding to go over details were incredibly helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly on the big day. One thing that meant a lot to me was getting specific photos with certain family members and bridal party groups, and Joe and Ashley made that happen seamlessly. Being able to send them a list of must-have shots was such a relief, and they powered through it all while still keeping things fun and natural. Those photos will be cherished for a lifetime! And if you’re on the fence about video—DO IT. Having a beautifully edited video with sound clips woven in so perfectly brought our wedding day back to life in a way that photos alone just can’t. The way they captured every little moment, every emotion—it’s truly priceless. Joe and Ashley are not just incredibly talented at what they do, but they also make the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. If you’re looking for a photographer and videographer who genuinely care, are highly organized, and will capture your wedding day in the most perfect way possible, look no further.

My name is Joey, and I am the creative director and lead wedding photographer at Joey Wallace Photography. With much hard work, we have acquired a unique skill-set and in-depth knowledge that earned us the place we’re in today as Atlanta’s top wedding photographers and videographers. We're thankful to have the luxury of owning a wide range of cutting edge wedding photography equipment, and with the backing of some of the most talented wedding photographers in the Atlanta area, we can confidently document every important moment of your all-day luxurious ballroom celebration or 3-day colorful South Asian and Indian wedding parade.

We couldn’t be more pleased with our package. Our photos are EXQUISITE and our wedding trailer is perfection. Joey and took their time to listen to our needs and was with each step of the way. With covid hitting and disrupting all of our original plans, we are so lucky and blessed to have had a vendor team as flexible and understanding. Your vendors are your right hand when it comes to pulling off an amazing wedding you’ve always dreamt of. You want your pictures and videos to remind you of that beautiful day. Joey not only delivered that gift to us but he also managed to do it super fast! We had about 125 images back within 2weeks, 1300+ images back within a month and our wedding videos back within 1.5months. We are so happy with the results!
