Awarded Best of Zola
Searching for a wedding photographer can be really overwhelming but finding Madison was the best thing that could have happen to us! She was absolutely amazing—so sweet and attentive. She took our engagement and wedding photos and we are blown away at her skills. All her photos turn out bright and beautiful, capturing every moment perfectly. My husband and I have different styles in photos but she took the time to understand our preferences and made sure to photograph everything just the way we wanted. We are very awkward in front of the camera and never know how to pose… but her instructions make it easy and seem like we are naturals. We 10000/10 recommend Madison as your wedding photographer. She’s a true gem!

Hi, I’m Carson, and I’m based in Columbia, SC! I have been photographing weddings and elopements for over seven years across the country. I recently moved to South Carolina from California, where I lived in Yosemite National Park. While my primary focus is wedding photography, I am also a biologist, which brought me to this beautiful state. I love expressing my creative side through photography and witnessing the joy it brings to my clients. I specialize in a blend of editorial and documentary-style photography. I aim to capture natural moments as the day unfolds, but I’m also happy to give gentle guidance when needed.

She even provided an extra shooter on the big day to make sure every moment was captured perfectly. Her sweet and warm personality made the whole experience so enjoyable. We were a bit nervous in front of the camera, but Carson made us feel so comfortable, even playing music and attending to all the little details to ensure we looked and felt our best.

Rhett masterfully captured our wedding from beginning to end, all our guests loved him.

Priscilla Thomas Photography 

5.0

Charleston, SC
  • Photojournalistic style

Icelandic-born but raised stateside in New Mexico and South Carolina – thanks to the United States Air Force. My love of storytelling began as a child when I asked for a typewriter for Christmas. Friends and I composed neighborhood newsletters featuring imaginary residents along our street in Alamogordo, NM. After moving to Charleston, I was a yearbook and school newspaper staff member. Words transitioned to visual storytelling soon after I graduated from the College of Charleston. After freelancing for a couple of years, I studied at Ohio University. Focusing on visual communication, I concentrated on photojournalism and multimedia.

Priscilla and Davis were the best to work with. As a pretty laid back bride with very little of my own input other than wanting beautiful pictures and memories, Priscilla captured EXACTLY what I asked for and more! She is amazing to work with and I highly recommend her! We love our photos

Taylor Rae Photography 

5.0

Charleston, SC
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,800

It brings me so much joy to photograph two people in love. That’s why I adore working with couples who know that their marriage is about SO MUCH MORE than just their wedding day. It’s all the days that follow. It’s choosing your spouse each and every day. Your wedding day will be perfect, not because everything went according to plan, but because you said YES to the love of your life. And I see it as a huge honor when a couple chooses me to document such an important day in their lives! When past brides describe my style, they say words like, “joyful,” “romantic,” “warm,” “bright,” and “photos that actually look like me!”

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! Taylor is your woman! My husband is not a huge fan of having his photo taken, so my main concern was finding someone that would make him feel comfortable. Little did I know how much Taylor would calm my nerves on our wedding day. She is such a light, but fun presence and I think that is reflected in how natural our photos felt. They truly reflect us, our love and the feeling of our big day. The only trouble you'll have is figuring out which of the hundreds of amazing photos you want to print. Seriously, is there a limit to how many wedding photos you should display in your home? She is the best!

Ben and Erin are in a league of their own. My husband and I hired them to photograph our wedding in New York, and it was a decision that literally changed our lives. We had not met them before our wedding, but from the moment they showed up they were ready to become a part of our family. Since our wedding, they have become the "official photographers" of our family and have photographed weddings and events for siblings, cousins, friends, etc. The photos from our wedding far exceeded what we could have ever expected! In addition to being amazing photographers, they took a genuine interest in who we are and were able to get photos unlike anything we had ever seen before. They work SO hard to capture every single moment, and you'll find them under chairs, tables and in unimaginable places to get the kinds of shots they're known for. On our wedding day, we planned a 3 hour break for portraits. Ben and Erin ran around with us to capture portraits in front of our favorite backdrops. They were ready to do *anything* to get us the photos we envisioned. Erin even gave me her jacket to protect my dress at one point in our portrait adventures. With their photos, they managed to make us see a place we had lived in for 10 years differently than we had ever seen it before. I can still stare at our photos for hours and remember exactly how we felt. They captured every single thing that happened, and in a way that our own eyes can't see. When it was time to create our album, they put incredible amounts of thought and care into making it perfect. They're willing to suggest ideas, and happy to work with yours. They showed us samples of albums and spent hours talking with us about what they thought would be best for us and our photos. The end result is an amazing wedding album that does justice to their photos. One of the things that I appreciate the most about Ben and Erin is how they truly get to know each and every one of their couples. If you ever ask them about a specific wedding or photo, they can tell you everything about the couple, wedding, family members, friends, etc. as though they've been a part of each family. When you look at the types of photos that they're able to capture, you realize that much of it is because people feel comfortable opening up to them and their cameras. They have a rare gift for photography and relationships. If you can find a date that Ben and Erin are free for your wedding, take it! Hiring them was the single best wedding planning decision we made. We can't wait for more family weddings to have an excuse to get in front of their cameras!

I’m Madison, but you can call me Maddy. You should know right off the bat, I’m not your typical wedding photographer. As a journalist, I was trained to see the story in everything. Now, as a photographer, I use storytelling to connect with people. And the stories I want to tell are adventurous, unbiased, natural, emotive love stories. So let’s skip the small talk. I want to hear about your biggest life hurdles, your aspirations, your journey, and the things that ignite your soul. Let’s skip the pomp and circumstance, too. If your dream is to marry your partner on a mountaintop, I’ll grab my hiking boots.

Oh my goodness... Madison Krupp is an absolute gem. She has the kindest heart, and makes you feel completely at ease! Having her take our wedding photos felt so easy and natural - she has such a calming way about her that almost makes you forget photos are even being taken! My husband and I had so much fun spending time posing, laughing, and really taking in those special moments together. I absolutely adore our wedding photos, and will treasure them forever. We couldn't of asked for a better person to photograph our day - she captured every moment so perfectly. In a professional setting, she is wonderful to work with as well. I work at a wedding venue and absolutely love when Maddy and I get the opportunity to work alongside each other at weddings + events. She is professional, warm, and cares deeply for her clients and her work. Thank you for all you do, MK!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

We were pretty nervous about finding the right photographers because we’re both camera-shy, but Rivelle Media completely blew us away. Anna and her team made the whole experience feel so natural - like we weren’t even being photographed most of the time. They joked with us, gave gentle direction when needed, and somehow caught every little moment that made our wedding feel so ‘us.’ Leading up to the day, they were also super helpful. Anna sent us this guide that was packed with tips and ideas we hadn’t even thought about, and she always made time to answer our questions. It felt like they really cared about making everything perfect for us. Now that we have the photos, we can’t stop looking at them!!

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him.

Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

Hi, I’m Heather! (that's me on the left) I'm a wedding photographer with a deep passion for capturing the genuine moments and raw emotions that make each wedding day so special. I’ve always been drawn to storytelling through photography, and over the years, I’ve developed a style that combines artistry with authenticity. My goal is to not just take pictures, but to tell the unique love story of each couple I work with, from the grand moments to the quiet, intimate details. My husband is a wedding videographer. So, if you are also looking for video, look no further!
