From start to finish, working with Zoom Wedding Studio was a dream. Our experience with them was that they were responsive (operationally we worked the most before and after the wedding with Helen and she was fantastic). Our photographers Mary and Joanne and videographer Denis were total professionals and guided us through the evening wonderfully, even though my husband and I are quite awkward in front of cameras.

Hello! I’m Sharon and I own Sharon Elisabeth Photography. I feel so grateful every day that I get to capture the most heartfelt moments and feelings that occur during weddings as well as documenting the relationships between people who love each other so much – families, friends and couples! I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

We booked Sharon for our engagement photos and wedding and any expectation and hope I had for how the photos would turn out were exceeded by Sharon! Her ability to capture the best of both posed photos as well as candids were everything I was looking for. There was not a single tender moment or a moment of laughs that was missed by her and her team and I would recommend her to any and everyone! She also is so patient and quick to communicate and I truly could not have asked for a better experience! Thank so much, Sharon, for getting every precious moment that we can look back on for years to come!

Choosing JMSmith Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Jennifer was amazing to work with, not just because of her incredible talent, but because she is a great person who simply loves what she does. From our first meeting, Jennifer's communication was both professional and approachable. We never felt like just another wedding on her schedule. She took the time to get to know us—our quirks, our inside jokes, and all the little things that make us unique. The photos are absolutely stunning! They’re creative, full of emotion, and capture every detail beautifully. She stuck to our timeline perfectly while still being playful and flexible (thanks for filming our silly TikTok request!). The final photos are amazing AND the feeling of comfort she brought to our special day is truly what sets JMSmith Photography apart.

When I shoot photography, it’s not about composing the perfect pictures or getting a great shot. Yes, those things are essential. But, to me, photography is so much more. It’s about capturing a moment in time that you will forever be able to look back on and feel something magical.

Emily has taken pictures for us on multiple occasions including our wedding, family pictures, and professional pictures for our business. And there’s a reason we keep coming back! What we love most is that Emily brings life to our pictures. They’re not just portraits, she captures the energy of the moment and expresses our life through her photographs. Whether it’s an important moment in our lives we wish to remember or, as with our professional portraits, a representation of us to show the world, she brings out who we are rather that just making an image of us.

We are 2 experienced photographers that have joined forces after a decade in the wedding industry as a full-service photo video team. We are here to tell your story in a way that truly captures your uniqueness. Our focus is to provide you with professionalism, confidence, a joyful and unforgettable day-of experience and above all photos and video that you can look back on and re-live the emotions from your wedding day.

Steph and Stef Photography has been out go-to for our large corporate events for years. We have multiple events every year that range from 30 people to 800 people, and I love that I feel confident reaching out to this partner for so many different events. We rely on them for both indoor and outdoor events, and their images always turn out so well. Their communication style is friendly, flexible, and casual. It's easy to reach out to them, make requests, talk through specific needs, and get their input on what works well for our event/venue/lighting/etc. Their photos always exceed expectations with dynamic, fun images capture the feeling of the event. I'd like to share a recent experience with Stefanie Haviv at our 250 person company Christmas party. The event, a formal event at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, NC, had a special focus to celebrate our company's founder's retirement. The event was structured similarly to a wedding with sections of planned speaking and unstructured mingling time. We had very specific things we needed captured for the structured activity, but we had fewer instructions for the free-form periods. Stefanie nailed the specific images we wanted and recorded these key moments so well. Her talent was most evident, however, in her candid photography. We weren't sure exactly what we wanted image-wise for the unstructured portions of the evening. Stefanie took it upon herself to find the most touching, personal, lively moments of the event to tell the party's story. Her work is dynamic and adaptable, and she was able to use the space's lighting and the crowd's energy to create images we loved. We are looking forward to the next opportunity to work with Steph and Stef!
