Love Knot Photography

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

I began this journey several years ago inspired by all the little moments going on around me. Photography has become one way I can express myself creatively while freezing a moment in time. I'm especially drawn to documentary & lifestyle photography as I love how natural the emotions are in the photos. There is a story to be told & I look forward to helping capture it on film.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we started wedding planning in late 2023 for our wedding in October 2024, I was seriously panicking thinking about all the different vendors we’d need to book. I knew we needed a photographer who was pretty flexible since we lived out of town from where we were planning the wedding, and that was Brandi to a T!! She was recommended by our wedding planner and I could not be more glad we chose her. She’s personable, kind, helpful, and an amazing photographer. She did our engagement shoot as well, and perfectly captured the spooky vibes we were going for and recommended the coolest photography venue to do them at. On the day of the wedding, she captured every moment so well with her second shooter, Valerie, and I’m so grateful to now have an entire album of beautiful wedding photos to look back on. She even sat down with my young nephew on the wedding day and let him take a few pictures with her camera. Just the sweetest person- I can’t recommend Brandi enough!!!

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it!

  • Serves Banner Elk, NC

Our work involves a lot of interaction between you and your partner: the way you smile, hug, laugh and goof off together. We use natural light to create artistically genuine moments. Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time. Our ultimate goal is to be a companion with you throughout your wedding planning process as a friend, not a vendor. We're not someone who simply ‘gets the job done’— We're with you every single step of the way, from the first time we talk until your images are delivered.

I had found them through a fb group, and have already gotten my engagement pics done and can’t wait for the wedding day pics! The engagement pictures are wonderful. By far my favorite pics I have with my fiancé. Super excited to see what she pulls together with our wedding pics :)

MSMP Media was the perfect choice for our wedding. Beyond the fact that their editing style was what we were looking for with bright photos, their team was incredible. We had the pleasure of working with their West Michigan Team. Jordan was fantastic and even got me a small birthday gift because my wedding was on my birthday! It was small details like this that really made our experience so great. She was great at getting us ready for photos with great directions. None of the wedding party were huge "photo" people, but she made us feel comfortable to allow for such great photos. Her eye for shots was fantastic. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos from everyone that we have shared them with! Beyond the photos themselves and the actual wedding day, Marisa had great communication. We received sneak peak photos within a day of the wedding and had the entire album less than a month out of the wedding. From what we have been told, this is a great timeline. We are so happy to have booked MSMP!

Your wedding photography should feel as unforgettable as the day itself—filled with emotion, depth, and those blink-and-you-miss-it moments that make it yours. My approach blends editorial artistry with real, heartfelt storytelling—so you get the iconic, cinematic shots and the quiet, unscripted moments in between. With a mix of film and digital photography, I create images that feel nostalgic yet modern, timeless yet full of life. Whether you're celebrating in a historic estate, a backyard under the stars, or halfway across the world, I’m here to capture it with care, intention, and an eye for the details that matter most.

I’ve had the opportunity to photograph many commencement ceremonies, birthday parties, and church events as well as tons of portrait sessions. However, weddings always give me butterflies. The beautiful details, the people, and the music makes me fall in love each time. There’s something special about witnessing love as it’s most authentic moment. The day goes by so fast, and I am able to freeze every tear, every laugh, and every kiss with just one click. But it’s truly more than that, it’s about creating an experience that you and your loved ones will never forget.

She has a true talent for her craft and has a way of making everyone in front of her lens look incredible. We received a huge variety of beautifully edited photos that we will cherish forever. Eleven 03 Photography truly made us feel like family throughout the entire process, and we never had to stress about our photos - we knew they were in good hands. We are thrilled with the results and highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Hello, I'm Kelly! Balsam Portraits and Weddings began in 2020, inspired by my deep love for storytelling and the mountains I’ve always called home. Raised in Hendersonville, NC, I cherish capturing intimate weddings where personalities shine, emotions flow, and every day is uniquely its own. I focus on the real, in-between moments—the quiet glances, the laughter, and the details that matter most. My goal is to document your wedding with honesty and artistry, creating memories that feel as real decades from now as they do today.

We hired Kelly at Balsam to photograph our wedding! She was nothing short of professional, timely, and incredibly fun to work with. We had around 100 guests not including wedding parties, and Kelly managed to photograph all the important, goofy, and treasured moments throughout the whole day. She seemed to be everywhere at once and missed nothing, all without me (the bride) hardly even noticing when and where she was shooting. Getting the photos back was like reliving one of the best days of our lives. She also was kind and fliexible enough to help us figure out a livestream setup so my husband’s very dear grandfather, too sick to travel for the event, was able to be included in the ceremony. The whole day went off so smoothly, Kelly was on point the whole time, and now we have gorgeous shots of all our favorite moments of the day. We couldn’t be more grateful to Balsam. I’ll also mention she shot our engagement photos as well - if I start talking about how perfect that day was, as well as the photos that came out of it, I’ll never stop. Nothing short of perfect.

I am a published photographer located in the beautiful state of Tennessee. I am a mama to two fascinating, wild little girls and I have a passion for running around, breathing in life. Photography has been a life long passion of mine; I can remember being a small child running around with disposable cameras trying to capture everything in site. Now, as an adult, photography is my way of making permanent what I, and others, hold close. I love tattoos, am romance book obsessed (honestly this career could not have been better picked) and hope to one day go sky diving! Now that you know a bit about me, I can't wait to learn about you!

Andrea-Marie is a fine art documentary wedding photographer specializing in romantic, editorial-style imagery. Blending candid moments with timeless elegance, she crafts a visual story that captures the genuine emotions of your wedding day. With a thoughtful and refined approach, Andrea provides a seamless experience, offering personalized guidance throughout your wedding journey. Serving Asheville, North Carolina, and beyond, Andrea-Marie Photography creates heirloom-quality images that stand the test of time.

Finding a great wedding photographer is about so much more than simply making it work for your budget. You need to find a person you and your partner will be completely comfortable with during the most intimate moments. After our initial call with Andrea, she left us feeling completely at ease. Andrea joined us in France for our wedding week and she instantly felt like family. So much so that without us asking she was thanked in every speech on the wedding night. Andrea's direction is perfect; fun and lighthearted for those more casual shots. She is also able to be kind and concise when wrangling guests. She had a beautiful ability to navigate family dynamics throughout the whole week. She kept us on schedule when our wedding planner, disappeared to deal with a wind storm that caused all of our plans (even plan B) to become impossible. On paper, everything that could go wrong did go wrong. The only thing that seemed to be right was having Andrea as our photographer. She's just the kind of person you want around for the highs and lows of your wedding day. We could write a novel about Andreas' character, and we could write another novel about how unbelievable her work is. We have heard from a multitude of people that our photos could be in Vogue. The shots from our wedding are mind-blowing. On so many occasions we have said to each other, "Wait is that actually us?". Andrea staged beautiful photos that felt completely genuine and never cheesy, because of the mood she sets. She also captures such incredible candid shots, her photos have that "cool girl aesthetic" that's saved on all of our Wedding Pinterest boards. She perfectly encapsulated the magic of our friends and the parts of the day that were so special. Thanks to Andreas's work, we practically forgot our reception tent almost falling over, our cake falling through a window, our bartender showing up alone, our caterer serving food we were super allergic to, and our seating arrangements becoming non-existent. Thanks to Andrea when we look back at our wedding, we have photos that show the love between us, the incredible friends and family we have, and the things that went right at our wedding. Thanks to Andrea we remember the magic and we'll never be able to repay her for that.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

Kamil and his wife Anna were amazing—guiding us to get the shots we wanted while letting us truly enjoy our day. The photos are pure art, and I could rave about Glim Studio and their team forever. They’re simply the best!

Awarded Best of Zola
When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3
