Laurel Calabek Photography

  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

Hi, I'm Laurel! I love to capture authentic, candid moments between you and your loved ones, as well as variations on classic poses. I like to think of myself as a storyteller for sweethearts in love. I specialize in natural light wedding photography, with an emphasis on fine art and candid images. On wedding days, my second shooter is my sweet husband, Jakub– that’s right, we are a husband and wife team! I love shooting all the emotion-filled moments and delicate details on your wedding day, and I couldn’t imagine doing it without Jakub by my side. We when aren't photographing, we are usually spending time with our Holland Lop, Beau!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have had the pleasure of working with Laurel and Jakub throughout multiple sessions over the last 2 years - engagement photos, bridal portraits, rehearsal dinner and wedding day! Laurel was always open to my thoughts and suggestions from inspiration I had seen for poses, session locations, etc. but she is always prepared to give such helpful direction and guidance based on her experience. Communication is 12/10 and we loved her use of "credits" with the packages she offers. Sessions were always extremely comfortable and in turn, she was able to capture photos where we felt confident and well, like ourselves! Outside from their incredible talent to capture such special moments - Laurel and Jakub are just wonderful people to be around and work with!

Hi, I'm Coby! I am so excited you are here! It is a privilege to be invited to some of the most pivotal and beautiful moments in people's lives. My couples choose me to preserve true, honest memories of their newly forming family tree. They trust me to truly see these connections and document them with professionalism and artistic ability so that they come away with photos that are treasured for the rest of their lives.

I worked with Coby at a fall wedding in Raleigh, and she was a dream photographer for my client. She spent several months before the wedding helping myself and my client prepare for their wedding, which made wedding photography the day of extremely smooth. From the first moment of inquiry to well beyond the final delivery of the wedding gallery, she made the whole wedding planning process a team event.

Kivus & Camera

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

I used to be a divorce attorney, I had brain surgery, and now I'm a wedding photographer. Yes, you read that right. But there's obviously more to the story. Before going to law school I went to school for photojournalism and even worked for newspapers. After brain surgery turned my life upside down, I realized I wanted to go back to my roots as a photojournalist and I wanted to capture truly joyful, enthusiastic moments and voila - I fell in love with weddings and photographing them.

Awarded Best of Zola
When it came to wedding planning, the photographer was my most important decision. That's also what I say to friends and family who are planning weddings. After everything is over, your photographs are what you have to remember a once-in-a-lifetime experience that is over in a blink! It was important to me that our photos reflected our personalities and were worthy of our walls and frames. Kivus & Camera are truly exceptional wedding photographers and were everything I had hoped for. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication style was open, caring, and responsive. They were dependable and fully committed to ensuring our wedding day was captured beautifully. As an LGBTQ couple, we worried the perfect photographer would be hard to find, but Elyssa and John are wonderful, and we couldn't have done better. Elyssa is a lovely person who is easy to hang out with on top of being a fabulous, talented and professional photographer. The quality of their work is simply stunning - they have an artistic, one-of-a-kind style that resulted in photos that are both beautiful and unique. We will enjoy our photos and memories from our engagement shoot and wedding day for years to come thanks to the thoughtful way Elyssa and John captured each moment. Logistically, our photos were easy to get and work with. Elyssa curates things for you in a way that makes sense. We ordered a photo book as well, and it is absolutely gorgeous. We cannot recommend Kivus & Camera enough to any couple looking for wedding photographers who will go above and beyond to make your special day perfect. In fact, they just photographed my sister's wedding this summer as well. So you know that we were all happy if we were willing to make it a family affair! You will not be sorry if you work with Kivus & Camera. (But you might be sorry if you don't!)

Tuuba Tuncer Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

I’m Tuuba*, an artist, adventurer, explorer, mother, educator, wife and much more. I have an MFA from Boston University in visual arts. Photography has been more than a hobby for me. Throughout my life and education, I have often used photography as a medium to explore my artistic endeavors. *pronounced “Too-baa”

We loved working with Tugba so much! From the moment I (the bride) met her I knew that I wanted to work with her for our wedding, and we are so glad that we did; she was very professional (responsive to communications, patient with the number of questions we had) and accommodating throughout the entire three years that we worked with her as we had to reschedule our wedding TWICE! Tugba has such a wonderful eye and is very experienced; she captured all the key moments that we indicated we wanted captured, and took other photos we didn't even know that we wanted but are so glad that we have. Also, neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Tugba directed us into the best lighting and poses to make sure we looked our best. She and her second photographer were as unobtrusive as possible throughout the event, while still managing to capture some really amazing candid shots that we are going to cherish as much as the posed ones. We do not have the words to express how much we love our wedding photos -- they are gorgeous and every time we look at them we are able to relive our magical day. We would highly recommend Tugba for your photography needs.

Hi there! I’m Emma CotéEwers, your East Coast & Destination Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer! My work is a seamless blend of traditional heirloom portraiture, lively artistic shots, and a little ​photojournalism if the day calls for it. With a true-to-color, film-inspired approach, I strive to craft visuals that capture love, ​laughter, and those beautifully authentic moments that weave together the story of your ​wedding! I feel like these should include fun ​facts? Patsy Cline’s Walkin’ After Midnight is my favorite song and I am currently on my 8th ​nostalgic binge of Gilmore Girls (which might just be fueling my banter lately).

Awarded Best of Zola
Emma was an absolute dream to work with! Quick to respond to messages; very helpful with location scouting and wardrobe choices. She promised to have our gallery edited and delivered within 2 weeks of our shoot date and she did not disappoint! My fiancé and I are absolutely in love with our photos - they're everything we had hoped for, and then some! I sent Emma a plethora of inspo photos on Pinterest and now I feel like I have my very own Pinterest board of photos that are all of me and my fiancé - they are perfection! We hope to work with Emma again in the future - cannot recommend her enough!

  • Serves Chapel Hill, NC

My philosophy is simple... I am here to tell the story of the day you married the love of your life. I want to document the excitement of you getting ready with your best friends, the look on your mother's face when she sees you in your dress for the first time, and the tears your father cries during the father - daughter dance, and that "Oh my God, we are really married?!" look of joy on your faces as you walk down the aisle as a married couple for the first time. I will pose you and guide you when necessary, but I believe when you are focusing on each other and really soaking in those moments --- that's when the magic happens.

Megan's photography skills are simply unmatched. From our engagement session to our wedding day, she effortlessly captured the essence of our love story, creating timeless memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. During our engagement shoot, Megan made us feel comfortable and relaxed, allowing our personalities to shine through in every photograph. When it came to our wedding day, Megan exceeded our expectations once again. She effortlessly blended into the background, capturing candid moments and genuine emotions with an artistry that is truly remarkable. Megan's photographs tell the story of our day with authenticity and grace. She went above and beyond to ensure that every shot was perfect. Megan's passion for her photograph is evident, and it shines through in every photograph she takes. She has a gift for capturing the beauty and creating images that are both breathtaking and full of meaning. We are beyond grateful for her talent, dedication, and professionalism, and we recommend her to anyone in search of a photographer who will capture their most precious moments. Thank you, Megan, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!

This isn't just your wedding, it's the beginning of your legacy. Within this beginning there are timeless moments to be captured. Jessica's attention to detail and touch of fine art allows for her to freeze those timeless moments for you to remember for years to come. The beginning of your legacy, your beautiful wedding day, should be as comfortable and fun as possible. You deserve to have a positive and relaxed day, which is exactly what Jessica delivers with each experience.

Jessica Thomas is absolutely amazing. I stumbled upon her while looking for a wedding photographer. Her photos and editing style are stunning. She was amazing to work with - easy to contact, very responsive and helpful, great with scheduling for our engagement shoot, and seriously one of the most down to earth, kind hearted people I have ever met. We had to reschedule our engagement shoot because of inclement weather and she immediately had a list of other dates she had available. Jessica even spent extra time with us capturing photos of our two year old son. She provided information before the wedding so we knew exactly what to expect the day of. Jessica brought a second photographer that was just as amazing and they both captured every part of our day perfectly! We got sneak peeks right after our wedding and she even sent me the high resolution ones in time for our Christmas cards! Our wedding gallery was also absolutely stunning and perfectly organized so we were able to look through each part of the day. I cannot recommend her enough - she captured every special moment of our day!

Hi there! I'm Sheree from STP. Alongside my husband, Eugene, we work together to capture one of the most significant days in the lives of our couples. We're truly passionate about what we do, and doing it together makes it that much sweeter.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot rave enough about Sheree!! From the moment I first spoke with her, I knew she was the perfect photographer for our wedding day. Her communication style was incredible - she was always quick to respond and professional but also so incredibly easy to talk to. Not only was the quality of her work simply outstanding, but her package pricing was extremely reasonable compared to other photographers out there. My husband and I are not the most comfortable in front of a camera, but Sheree was able to put us both at ease and did all the orchestrating when it came to posing. She was even able to include our fur baby into our pictures, which was incredibly important to us. Our wedding photos are more beautiful and exceptional than we could have even dreamed of. We are so happy to have found Sheree and we will definitely be booking her if we ever need pictures done in the future. I cannot recommend her enough. Book her for your wedding NOW, you will not regret it!!

It is the greatest privilege in life to capture such meaningful photos on the most important days of our lives. The trust and vulnerability from each person I work with is something I take very seriously. I am so thankful to choose this profession because of how much joy it brings me to document two people coming together in the name of Love, with their most cherished friends and family surrounding them.

Where do I start? Casie’s all around professionalism and talent make her stand out in the large crowd of wedding photographers. I hired Casie nearly a year before my wedding and she was able to answer any questions I had during that time. She was also such great company on my wedding day - never taking up “too much space”, while also being there whenever I needed assistance. She made ALL of my specific visions come true while simultaneously providing some incredibly unique surprise shots in my gallery as well. I cannot recommend Casie enough!!!!

LindseyK Photography specializes in capturing romance and emotion. Waiting for the sun to gleam just right through the trees, having finger on trigger awaiting that moment dad wipes a tear from his daughter's eye during their dance, or pulling the bride and groom away for some alone time during sunset to capture that forehead kiss. These are the moments... the moments of subtle, real, beautiful emotion that float through a busy wedding day easily forgotten unless captured. The importance of your bouquet broach, notes shared, jewelry worn, groomsmen toasts, ..even quirky socks, all tell the story of your day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I saw Lindsey's work on IG and knew it was something special! When we met her in person the first time having tacos, I was sold. She is poised, professional, fun, and to the point. I adored engaging with her. She made us feel so special at our engagement photos and was open to help us think about places that would suit our style. When it came to our wedding, I knew we were in great hands and she provided sooooo many wonderful photos and memories. All of our friends and family LOVED working with her. This woman is the real deal and her photos are FABULOUS!
