Audra Jones Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $7,200
  • Serves Columbia, VA

Hi there. I originally hail from Georgia, but am so happy to now call Charlottesville my home. When I'm not chasing down perfect sunlight, you can usually find me tucked away somewhere with a book, writing, enjoying life with my partner Charles, styling my 1920s home, or snuggling with my Frenchie pup, Finny.

Awarded Best of Zola
Incredibly talented, always listens to the couple's needs, flexible, generous, smart, artistic, kind, and fun! Audra was the absolute best. She made us feel so comfortable, even though we are camera shy. The wedding flew by in a flash, but I'm so grateful for the incredible photos which will last forever so I can enjoy the day over and over again!

Meredith Coe Photo 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Serves Columbia, VA

Each event, at it’s root, is a story. It’s a unique story of that moment in time- a newborn coming home, a bride and groom embracing or a grandmother on her 85th birthday - and it's an important moment to hold still. My role as a photographer is to tell that story as honestly as I can. I want people to look back on these memories and remember it exactly as they experienced it. That’s why I aim for transparency in my photography that neither adds nor takes away from the moments that I am documenting.

Awarded Best of Zola
Meredith was an absolute joy to work with! Her warm, fun energy instantly put us at ease, allowing us to feel comfortable and be ourselves, which truly shines through in our photos. She has an incredible eye for not only capturing the background, lighting, and surroundings perfectly but also bringing out the unique personality of everyone she photographs. We did our engagement photoshoot in NYC, which captured a cool, chic city love story, and our wedding day photoshoot at a vineyard in Charlottesville, VA, on a beautiful summer day. The vineyard setting was so dreamy, and Meredith effortlessly captured the natural beauty of the day, making every moment look timeless and elegant. When you look at her pictures, it feels like you’re reliving those moments. Her shots are full of life—not stiff or posed—but vibrant and authentic, capturing the true essence of each moment. Meredith was also incredibly kind and easy to work with, offering thoughtful advice both before and during the shoot. This was our first time having professional photos taken, but thanks to her, we felt relaxed from the start. Her work is a perfect mix of classy, modern, and elegant, with a splash of fun and a seize-the-day vibe. We’re already excited to work with her again—hopefully for our next photoshoot, when we have a baby! Cannot recommend her enough - just do it, book her!!!

Ashley Cox Photography

  • Serves Columbia, VA

Ashley Cox Photography is a professional wedding photography studio based in Virginia. Ashley has an eye for beauty in every moment of your wedding day, and preserves it with an artistic touch. She has worked as a wedding photographer for many years, providing exceptional service and stunning collection for each couple. Ashley thrives on capturing the intimate moments where your true beauty shines. She offers a variety of photography packages for weddings of every size, style, and budget.

Do yourself a favor and hire Ashley for your wedding, event, family photos, etc. - she is absolutely AMAZING!! We hired her for our June wedding and it was the best money we spent, hands down. Everything from coordinating our engagement shoot to planning the shots we wanted at the wedding was seamless. Ashley is not just a wedding photographer; she is a true artist and has an incredible talent for styling shoots on the fly, troubleshooting in challenging environments, and making everyone feel SO comfortable. One of my main concerns with our photos was that we would look stiff - with Ashley that was not an issue. She had us laughing and feeling so relaxed from the very beginning. On our wedding day, Ashley was extremely efficient and worked around our desire to have the first look at the ceremony, while also somehow getting all the shots we wanted plus a lot more. We even made the last 15 minutes of our cocktail party! The photos are art-quality, timeless, and everything we hoped they would be - she captured the day exactly as we remembered it, even the crazy-packed dance floor! I really cannot recommend Ashley enough, we will absolutely be using her again in the future!!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace is an amazing photographer! If I could give her 10 stars I absolutely would. She was amazing working with both of our crazy families and from the very beginning I knew that she’d do a great job capturing the special moments of our special day. She worked with everyone and did a great job explaining what everyone needed to do to get a perfect shot. She also was absolutely wonderful with our 2 year old son who would’ve climbed in the car and went home with her if he could. If I could do it all over again I would definitely always pick Grace to shoot our wedding! She was an amazing addition to the day and we are so thankful that we found her.

Working with Amy was a dream! She has such calm energy and was able to pivot quickly as rain interrupted our pre-wedding photos. She also managed to wrangle our family & friends group photos, even during cocktail hour! We had so much fun working with her. And the photos are stunning!

Hello! My name is Alexis and I am a wedding photographer serving Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and destinations beyond. I create natural, elegant, artful wedding photography for the adventurous, romantic, classic couple in love. I have eight years of professional wedding photography experience. I've had the opportunity of capturing the most achingly beautiful love stories around the globe, from intimate chapel weddings in Greek villages, traditional cathedral weddings in the city, and now the large familial celebrations in the iconic capital city of Washington DC.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Alexis was one of the best decisions we made about our wedding. Alexis is professional, and her photography is stunning, but just as importantly, she is a kind and generous person. She has a remarkable ability to put anyone she's working with at ease (including children and family members who shy away from cameras!). She has a calming, steady presence while also having a remarkable ability to keep people on track when necessary. Starting with our engagement session (and continuing with family sessions), we've always been impressed with how well she is able to capture really fun candid photos as well as beautiful portraits and more traditional shots. We 100% recommend Alexis!

Thank you for visiting our profile! I'm Mel (Lead Photographer) and my spicy latin queen, wife and BFF, Alegna is the second shooter/editor. It's been 20 years and 5 jewels later since our "I do" moment. We are passionate about capturing the beginning of a lifetime of love. This is more than a business to us. It's a passion! Our motto is: "Love the moment. Live it forever."

Awarded Best of Zola
I was fortunate to find Enamored for my wedding. In the limited time I had, Alegna kept me on target to get everything done. It’s obvious she’s done a lot of weddings. I don’t think anyone else could help me pull off a beautiful wedding in less than a month. The pictures taken by Mel are simply marvelous. He has an easy going demeanor that made us comfortable when taking pictures and he’s always thinking about the next shot which made the photo sessions quick but thorough. The whole family was instrumental in the wedding being stress free and wonderful. I can’t imagine what they could do with more planning time!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t say enough about Mellisa. She did a truly AMAZING job at our wedding! Not only did she capture our big day so wonderfully but she also made sure I was well taken care of from the start to the end. Mellisa is also very good at finding the perfect angle right away, which tells you how talented she is as a photoprapher. I used her pictures for our Christmas cards and I received SO MANY compliments!! I also used her work to create a wedding photo album, which I gifted to my parents-in-law, and they were very impressed and moved. Her photos capture and deliver even the subtle emotions of people, and that allows us to relive our unforgettable wedding day. Her work definitely touches many people’s hearts and I can’t thank her enough for it! Being able to work with her was absolutely one of the best decisions I made for my wedding and I HIGHLY recommend her. Don’t look for any further! I would love her to take our future family photos or anniversary photos as well! Thank you for being such a kind, fun, thoughtful, and talented photographer, Mellisa! We are forever thankful!

Sam Hurd Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Columbia, VA

My style is distinct, a result of both my unrelenting commitment to my craft and complete trust from clients who commission me. You’re not going to read about any awards, badges, or “top 10 lists” because what matters is you’re in love with the work that you see and are ready to trust me entirely to do what I do. This trust drives me to find the perfect balance between creative experimentation and honest documentation.

Can't recommend Sam enough. Not only is his work some of the best I've seen and is well known around the world, but he is also just super chill to work with. He lets videographers do their thing and is very easy going with the couples and vendors he works with.

I'm Sarandon (pronounced SU-RAN-DIN). I'm an artist and photographer in Baltimore, Maryland where I live with my husband, our daughter, and our Australian Shepherd pup. I have an affinity for houseplants, terrible movies, good whiskey, and dinner parties. On days off I like hunting for my next favorite bakery, perusing a museum, or gathering friends for dinner and cocktails.

Sarandon is a talented, professional, and easy to work with. Personally, as someone who hates getting their photos taken, I thoroughly enjoyed my time in front of the camera that Sarandon was working with. She made both my husband and I feel at ease, comfortable in front of the camera, and stress free on our big day. The photographs came out beautifully and on time. I would highly recommend Sarandon for your next wedding. :)

We are Hannah and Anthony Green, a husband and wife photography team specializing in weddings throughout Virginia. While we love a wedding with a great mountain view or a historic home, we know that it is the people that make this day truly special. Our favorite part of the wedding day is capturing authentic moments as your most special people celebrate the start of your new family. Some of our favorite images from our own wedding were fun, candid moments with our family and best friends. We take that experience, and our 7 years of photographing weddings together, to bring a unique approach to wedding photography that is couple-focused.

We absolutely loved working with Hannah (and Anthony, her partner, as second shooter)! Hannah was so on top of all things planning-wise and even helped me to figure out non-photography-related wedding things. She's so friendly and personable, it's amazing how she can really dial in on what you want and need. On the day of our wedding, Hannah was such a calming presence, working with our day-of planner to make sure things went off without a hitch and all the photos we wanted captured were shot. Seriously, cannot recommend Hannah enough!

I am a lover of pretty light, laughing with my couples and curating fine art weddings & engagements for the Audrey Hepburn’s of Charlottesville, Virginia and beyond. When I’m not photographing weddings you can find me in my favorite place-Walt Disney World.

Sarah is so wonderful and we LOVE our photos! From the first call, I felt like Sarah and I were friends - she is so good at relating to people and making them feel comfortable. She is beyond sweet, creative, and so helpful. Sarah was great at communicating leading up to the wedding and was always quick to respond. On the wedding day, she did so many extra things that went above and beyond: she attached my family pendants to my bouquet, put flowers in my hair, got me electrolyte water, and so much more. She made me smile all day and had everyone laughing in our group family photos. We felt so taken care of! She is a true professional and it’s obvious that she has a lot of experience. We also loved her second shooter who did a fabulous job photographing the groomsmen. Getting our photos back was like Christmas morning! We absolutely love Sarah’s light and airy photography style that makes me feel like our wedding was in a Jane Austen novel. It is such a gift to have photos that capture the best day of our lives so well. I have looked at our photos multiple times a day every day for the last month and now they decorate our home so that we can look at them 24/7! The photos Sarah captured will be among our most cherished possessions for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Sarah!

Hi I'm Maddy! I’m a Virginia native whose love of her camera took her on an adventure into entrepreneurship. I accidentally stumbled into wedding photography thanks to some family friends, and ended up leaving my career as a consultant to pursue my passion. I’m not afraid to admit that I’m a perfectionist and a little bit Type A, but take pride in how that makes me into a great wedding photographer. I thrive in fast-paced environments and love the energy of a wedding day that keeps me on my toes. My attention to detail allows me to go above and beyond when it comes to helping you prepare and capturing your wedding day.

We absolutely loved working with Maddy! She was professional, talented, and made us feel so comfortable during our photoshoots. She truly nailed the sweet romance we were trying to achieve through our pictures. Our package also included an engagement session and the photos came out beautiful! We had an incredible selection to choose for our save the date and website photos. Maddy’s system is also so easy to use. She uploads all photos online and gives you the option to download into a Google Photos album so it makes sharing with friends and family incredibly simple. In the days leading up to our wedding, Maddy was organized and helpful, even prepared for the rainfall predicted for our wedding! The day turned out gorgeous and so did our pictures. We are so happy we chose Maddy to capture our big day and I know you will too!

I am a Wedding, Portrait, and Event Photographer. I’m based out of Northern Virginia, but I enjoy traveling to Virginia Beach and other destinations. I’m a Mermaid at heart, so naturally, my favorite place to be is by the sea. I am married to my best friend, Michael, and we have 2 pups named Lily Mae & Sir Chance.

Sitting here obsessing over all of the photos that Kristin has taken throughout my wedding journey! I don't know where to start because she is just absolutely wonderful! She offered an amazing wedding package so she did our engagement pictures, my bridal portraits, rehearsal, and our wedding day! My husband and I are not fond of getting our picture taken, but Kristin made us feel so relaxed and comfortable and walked us through every step and pose! We have been amazed by everything she has done that even our sneak peeks gallery from the wedding day is blowing our minds! We're like, wait, there's more?! YES! We can't wait!

  • Serves Columbia, VA

I'm Katie and I've been a wedding photographer for over ten years now. In that time I've been lucky to photograph nearly 200 weddings all over the East coast and the world! I love to approach each wedding day as though I were telling the story to someone who wasn't there...which to me means capturing a mixture of the little details you worked so hard to choose as well as those little in between moments that happen as the day unfolds. When I'm not photographing weddings, you can find me shopping at Trader Joe's, planning my next trip, or cuddling with my cat, Lucy!

I had the pleasure of working with Katie Nesbitt over the course of several years and have watched her talents evolve in the process. Katie's eye for detail is astounding, and beyond her technical expertise, she is a joy to work with. She deftly navigates complex family dynamics, moves swiftly through portrait sessions, and knows when to blend into the background and when to assert herself to get the best pictures. She has a way of elevating our charming, little farm venue through her lens and makes it look sophisticated and refined! I was always impressed by the mix of candids, posed shots, and details she captured throughout the day. Beyond that, she is punctual, communicative, dependable, and complimented every single vendor team she has been paired with for our couples! In fact, I hired Katie as my own wedding photographer for my 2020 (now 2022) wedding because I was so impressed with her professionalism behind the scenes as well as her work. I've loved working with Katie in this capacity, especially during these complicated times, because every communication reminded me that she cared, listened, was flexible as we were forced to change our plans. The next steps were clearly outlined, so we were never left wondering what was going on. It made us feel that we were being guided by a true professional through a process she was a master at! I would never hesitate to recommend her to anyone who wants a true professional to create a customized photography experience.

Hello! I'm Christina! *I believe big love happens in the small moments. *I LOVE learning about your love story! *Chasing dreamy light for your portraits thrills me! *My favorite parts of a wedding day are the parts that show off the kind of life you’ve built & tell the story of who you are- the private vows, speeches, & stories shared throughout the day. I live to be the wallflower witnessing & capturing these moments. It is such an honor that I look forward to every weekend.

My husband and I used Golden Gower Photographer to capture our December wedding. Christina captured each moment and every emotion of our day perfectly. Christina as a photographer is kind, warm and encouraging. She has a special ability to make her clients feel comfortable and heard. Christina is quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and is prepared with solutions to calm any nerves. From our engagement shoot, to our wedding day, we are impressed not only with the quantity of pictures, but the quality of the photos as well. It is clear Christina took her time and put thought and care into each individual picture, and we feel so fortunate to have these beautiful pictures to look back on for years to come.

Lindsay and Nathan are an incredible team. From booking them two years ago, doing our engagement session, and now having gotten sneak peaks back from our wedding that was just 2 days ago, I’m completely blown away by how incredible they have been! Lindsay is a complete pro. Group photos flew by because she was so great at directing and wrangling everyone. I had multiple people comment on how she was EVERYWHERE non-stop at our wedding, doing an amazing job the whole time! I just know she got every picture I wanted and more, and with how gorgeous our sneak peaks turned out I know I’ll absolutely love them! She and Nathan were so on top of everything, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Not only that, she truly went above and beyond helping to safety pin a rip in my dress. The day was a whirlwind but Lindsay and Nathan made it so easy! I would hire them a million times over!

Hi! I'm Taylor a Georgia based Wedding photographer, mommy, and cheesecake lover. Obsessed with: Family, Naps, and good books. I’ve been keeping it real since 1997. I started my business when I was just 17 years old. Since then I have turned that small hobby into a full time career photographing beautiful couples love stories. Throughout my 8 years in business, I have been lucky enough to photograph over 200 weddings throughout Georgia and the other southern states.

Over the last couple of years, I have had the pleasure of working with Taylor Faith Photo Co., and I can't say enough about the fantastic experience I had. Taylor not only possesses exceptional talent behind the lens but also excels as a mentor in the world of photography. It is evident that she is passionate about sharing her knowledge and expertise. She patiently guided me through the intricacies of perfecting manual settings, offering invaluable insights and practical tips along the way. Her teaching style was clear, concise, and tailored to my individual learning needs. What truly sets Taylor apart is her willingness to go above and beyond in nurturing aspiring photographers. Not only did she impart technical skills, but she also graciously allowed me to tag along on various shoots, providing firsthand experience and invaluable opportunities to observe her creative process in action. She fostered a supportive and inclusive environment where questions were encouraged. Whether you're a beginner looking to hone your skills or an experienced photographer seeking inspiration, I highly recommend Taylor Faith Photo Co.

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.

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Lindsey on our wedding day! Neither one of us enjoy being in front the camera and she made it so easy and comfortable - we ended up having a blast! We are amazed at all the photos - she captured us perfectly! We still joke 8 months later that we can't decide which ones to hang up in our house. Throughout the entire process, Lindsey was super professional and great to communicate with and we can't thank her enough for doing such a wonderful job. We highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her for future photography needs :)

We feel so lucky to have found Andrew as our wedding photographer. He has an incredible eye for the editorial style and makes his photos into works of art with golden light and chiaroscuro. So many photographers just rely on their high-res equipment but don't offer anything more--I don't want a macro shot of every pore or line on my face like an owl in a tree at 100 yards, I want to have a sense of magic and beauty in every photo. Andrew actually does that. I almost cried when I saw our first look photos because I don't feel very confident being photographed and I finally had dozens of photos of myself and my husband that I want to share with friends immediately and cherish forever. He delivered the first look so fast, even though I know he was busy working another wedding; I thought for sure we would have to wait longer. The wedding package we chose included very nice touches like polaroids so we had something in hand at the end of the wedding day itself, too. It was very thoughtful and left us feeling good about the whole experience right away. He was very personal and nice to work with, but not intrusive, and went with the little schedule changes we had, and was open to suggestions while we took post-ceremony photos around the city. I couldn't be happier with our experience with him and would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a real artist for their wedding photography.
