At Untethered Times Photography, I believe your wedding day is more than a celebration—it’s the start of your forever. I specialize in capturing love stories through timeless, natural photography. From the big “I do” moments to the smallest details—the tearful glances, stolen kisses, and joyful laughter—I aim to preserve every chapter of your day so you can relive it for a lifetime.

Untethered Times has been absolutely amazing to work with for my family photos. My son is not a fan of sitting still at all and is difficult to get him to cooperate in general. Emily was fantastic at distracting him and was so creative in doing so! She was very flexible when we had meltdowns, and the photo quality is outstanding that you would never know he was crying just minutes before! She was very personable and made us all feel relaxed. I will only ever use Untethered Times for all my photography needs and recommend everyone to use her.

Hi, I’m Ria, and I am a hopeless romantic with a camera in hand. I believe in the magic of the in-between moments—the tear in your father’s eye, the shaky breath before the first look, and the chaotic joy of the dance floor.

Photography has always been my way of connecting with the world, but weddings hold a special place in my heart. There's something truly magical about experiencing every emotion of the day alongside the couple - the joy, the happy tears, the excitement, and even the quiet, heartfelt moments in between. Being entrusted to capture those emotions is an honor I don't take lightly. With each click of the shutter, I'm not just taking a photo - I'm preserving a piece of your story, one that you can cherish forever.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren for our wedding, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! From the moment we first met her, it was clear that she wasn’t just passionate about photography—she genuinely cared about capturing the essence of our day in the most beautiful, authentic way possible. Lauren has an extraordinary eye for detail. She doesn’t just take pictures; she captures moments—the spontaneous smiles, the glances exchanged, the raw emotions. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—something neither of us was used to. She took the time to understand our style and personalities, and tailored her approach to fit that perfectly. On the day of the wedding, her calm and positive energy was a grounding presence amid all the excitement. Lauren made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and beyond. She’s a true artist, and her work will be cherished by us for years to come. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is not only professional but will go above and beyond to capture your most important moments, look no further than Lauren. She exceeded every expectation we had, and we are forever grateful! Thank you, Lauren, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!

Hey, I’m Bry! ✨ A slightly introverted, highly goofy, and professionally sarcastic wedding photographer. I specialize in light & airy imagery filled with real laughs, genuine moments, and all the beautifully unscripted magic. While I may be quiet at first, give me five minutes and I’ll be cracking jokes, hyping you up, and fixing your dress like we’ve been friends for years.

Saying Ashley (and her associate photographer, Bri) was amazing just does not do her justice. Ashley did both our engagement photos and wedding photos, and both were stunning. The communication with Ashley throughout the entire process was easy, she always responded quickly. She was so willing to answer our questions and give us tons of wedding planning advice. She made sure to get every single shot we asked for. Her skills are beyond unbelievable. She makes you feel so comfortable and makes sure you are having fun while taking all of your photos. She even helped me with our timeline, which helped the day run smoothly. Her turnaround time is extremely fast, unrivaled in the industry. We received our sneak peeks less than 12 hours after the photography ended. We received our full wedding gallery less than 2 weeks after our wedding date! We were blown away by all of the photos. Her editing is top quality and every single photo looks stellar. We could not recommend Ashley enough for any occasion, not just weddings!

I am a Virginia Beach and Outer Banks professional photographer and I grew up a few streets from the beach in Virginia Beach at the oceanfront, it is my ultimate happy place. If I am not in Virginia Beach, I am probably spending time in the Outer Banks with my boyfriend and our cocker spaniel puppy Wallen. I absolutely love those relaxing weekends spent in Kitty Hawk. My goal during your session or wedding is to be comfortable, have fun and absolutely GLOW in your photos! I want to showcase your emotions with your loved ones through my lens.

There are simply no words that would do Maddy justice, but I’ll try. We booked an engagement shoot with her a year before our wedding and from the moment she snapped the first picture, I knew she would photograph our wedding. She’s knowledgeable, professional, and most importantly FUN! She went above and beyond to make sure we had the best day ever. I am not a fan of the traditional “posed” photos, but Maddy photographs you as you are- natural. She directs you In a way that makes you feel comfortable. She was able to capture my pure happiness on my wedding day. These photos will last a lifetime and I am so proud to say Maddy took them!

Hey there! Thanks so much for checking out! my page. I’m a couples and wedding photographer based out of Virginia Beach, Va but you can take me anywhere(: I’ve always loved taking photos and editing them, but couples have just completely stolen my heart. Being able to get creative and meet so many amazing couples all while giving you something you’ll have forever is what makes it so fun! Feel free to visit my instagram or website to see my most up to date sessions and learn more about me! (:

The first thing that caught my eye with Kyndall was her editing style. I mean when picking a photographer that’s pretty important to love! Her style was so unique and almost ethereal. I just got the best vibes from everything she had online and immediately I knew I wanted her for our wedding. From the moment we decided on Kyndall, I was impressed by her efficient and thorough communication and the entire process of booking. I loved being able to pay through her portal and have reminders throughout the year. She was always available if I had a small question or needed advice on something during my planning. Then the real magic happened day-of! Her and Bre were a highlight of my day truly. They were simply FUN. Immaculate vibes, we all fell into things very easily. It was a very blustery day and I wasn’t feeling super pretty- just kind of disheveled honestly. Despite the weather they both made me feel beautiful, comfortable, confident, and at ease, and I know my friends and family would agree. Her work was exactly what I was hoping for to capture our special day, and her personality was a bonus. Kyndall was genuinely fun to work with, and I cannot wait to see the final results. I’ve seen the sneak peaks (which I got literally less than 12 hours after our wedding!!) and I can say without a doubt hiring Kyndall was truly the best decision we made in selecting vendors. I would highly recommend her services to any couple planning their wedding.

My love for photography began back when I was in high school, and my friends and I would have makeshift photoshoots just to keep our Myspace profile pic updated, and well the rest is history. . For me photography is more than just snapping a picture and or editing something in photoshop, but about the entire experience, and documenting your special moment; from choosing a location and vibe to what outfit you should wear, I am with you every step of the way.

Not only is Maria incredibly talented, she’s the absolute sweetest too!!! She got on so well with our bridal party and joked along with us! The pictures are absolutely stunning and all my friends and family keep saying “your photographer took beautiful photos!!” Whenever we need more pictures in the future, you can bet I’m reaching out to Maria again!

As your wedding photographer I understand the journey you have been on that leads you to your wedding day. I know about the unique twists and turns of your story as a couple and how much this celebration means to you both. I know these things because I am invested in you as a couple just as you are investing in me as your photographer. As you vow to be true to each other for the rest of your lives, I promise to capture you in a timeless and romantic way that creates heirloom quality images that eventually turn into your legacy.

Meridith Bright is an exceptional photographer. You would be absolutely blessed to have her by your side at any event. Meridith photographed my wedding (10/14/2023), welcome party (10/13/2023), and a recent family photography session (9/2023). I could not have been happier with her work, professionalism, and vibe. Due to budget reasons, we were unable to have a second shooter, but she was EVERYWHERE. Every single time I looked up, there was Meredith. It rained on my wedding day, which limited our availability for photo locations - no big deal, she improvised and came up with excellent second choices. When I stepped outside the tent to take selfies with my girlfriends in the rain, all of a sudden there was Meridith capturing our moment as well. I’m a photography addict and I had some out of the box ideas that Meridith admittedly didn't have experience with. I love that she was open and honest about not having done this type of photo before and I loved her willingness to try out the photo styles. One of these requested photos was in my sneak peak, and it was to die for, perfect. Two days before my wedding, my mother surprised me with a list of photos she would be requiring for the day. I thought my "official" timeline by my planner wasn't going to be able to accommodate this. Meridith took charge. She went back and forth with me multiple times over the next 48hrs and created a new timeline to ensure we could get it done. Lastly, after all that back and forth, I was insanely late the day of my wedding. There was a bit of drama (surprise lol), and I did not complete my hair and makeup until over an hour after I was supposed to. Oh my goodness was Meridith wonderful in this situation. She never flustered or got angry with me. Instead, she lovingly kept reminding me of the importance to have fun and enjoy this time. So while I was freaking out at the potential of ruining everything, Meridith was go with the flow, upbeat, and calming - all things I really needed. I got my sneak peak photos from the wedding and welcome party on 10/15/2023. 26 pictures of pure perfection. OBSESSED! They are absolutely gorgeous. The day had its fair share of craziness, but these pictures are out of this world – coming from someone with 105,891 pictures on their phone. I feel like I got my perfect day, which will forever mean the world to me and would not have been able to happen without Meridith Bright. Thank you for everything, Mer! And to the googlers still reading, book her – you won’t regret it.

I am a photographer based in Virginia Beach. For nine years, I coached a US Olympic Team and saw many remarkable feats and places. My love for capturing those moments bred my passion for photography and sharing it with others. Photography has dared me to confront the world in a much different way and helped me enjoy my surroundings, cope with my fears, and ease (a little) my social awkwardness.

Andrew E. Woods Photography was an excellent choice for our wedding photographer. His communication style was clear, timely, and professional throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly excellent - the photos are beautiful, fun, and family-friendly. Andrew caught the fun and loving side of everyone who attended, working patiently with my large family to make sure everyone felt included. He took so many wonderful candid shots, and our guests commented on his attention to detail and friendliness. Andrew even captured a special moment of my bridal party praying before the ceremony, which is something I will always treasure. As a couple who isn't very photogenic, Andrew was very patient with us and still managed to document our day beautifully. If I could upload all of my photos, I would!! I highly recommend Andrew E. Woods Photography to any couple looking for an experienced, talented, and personable wedding photographer.

Hello! My name is Liz Seidel and I can't wait to spend time with you! I am the sole owner/photographer at Sterling Life Photography. I have been documenting weddings and people full time since the summer of 2015. I have two beautiful children that keep me busy and laughing. I love driving with no destination while listening to audible, wine, a good laugh that makes your cheeks hurt, and melting into the scene at weddings.

We are so grateful to Liz for capturing the beauty and spirit of Emily and Matt’s wedding day. Liz was able to accompany us throughout the entire day in a way that did not interfere with any of the events or aspects of the day. She has a unique ability to capture the many moments of two families coming together as one by seamlessly threading together the tenderness of friends and family helping the bride and groom getting ready, to the love and holiness of the ceremony, and finally to the exuberance and free spirited joy and celebration of the reception. Then, Liz patiently put all of it together to create distinctively individual albums for the bride and groom, for our family and for Matt's family. Liz did an amazing job and I would highly recommend her to any bride and groom.

My favorite thing about photography is getting to know my clients, their stories, their families, and their friends and making that special connection. Seeing their love, warmth, happiness, and joy captured in my photos is so exciting. My clients become friends and hold a special place in my heart. I blend traditional photo-journalistic photography with my own creative flare! Yes, traditional photos are great and beautiful; however, clients fall in love with my creative, fun shots. It's my desire for each client to look at their pictures years from now and still remember the exact emotion and excitement they felt.

Julie is a FANTASTIC photographer!! She and her second shooter Melissa were so fun to work with, and my husband and I were blown away by their photos. We couldn’t be happier!
