Our photographers Mary and Joanne and videographer Denis were total professionals and guided us through the evening wonderfully, even though my husband and I are quite awkward in front of cameras.

Ben was selected to photograph our special day and not only was he very kind but he made sure we got all the shots we wanted, had great ideas for things we didn’t even think of and made us feel so at ease. We were so excited to get our pictures back and so antsy but it was all worth the wait. They were STUNNING to say the least and the moody editing style turned out better than we could have imagined.

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nick is a gem!! We are so thankful that he photographed our wedding. My partner and I had a lot of requests, and Nick accommodated them all while never making us feel difficult. He listened carefully to what was important to us - for my husband it was not stopping the party to take pictures and for me it was LOTS of candids of our loved ones. Somehow Nick made it happen!! We got gorgeous photos of the two of us just being ourselves with each other and amazing dance floor shots of our guests having the best time! With no posing!! The colors in the photos are fantastic -- even though Nick does AMAZING work outdoors he makes indoor photography feel just as special. Nick made a special effort to take a lot of photos of my grandparents and our parents specifically which we will treasure in years to come. Our friends said that the photos "look like how the day felt" which felt so right. We were amazed by how many micro moments between guests Nick captured!! Reliving the day via the photos is now my favorite past time. To top it all off, Nick was incredibly kind and calm throughout the day. Everyone in our families raved about how nice our photographer was. He worked with our coordinator for our timeline to run on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. We got to be fully present all day long. It was the exact energy you want by your side throughout your wedding. If we could change one thing it would have been having Nick for more time!!

My name's Megan, but my friends call me Meg. Lover of sunshine, tacos, puppies and country music. A mom of three, wife to my goober of a husband, project manager by day, and the photographer that is going to convince you how important it is to invest in capturing life’s sweetest moments. Heads up, we will be friends! I know the value of memories that photographs carry, so I am all in with you from the beginning.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the best experience working with Megan for our engagement and wedding shoot. She made us feel at ease and comfortable, especially as a couple who’s not used to being in front of the camera. Once we saw our engagement shoot pictures, I knew we had made the right decision in selecting someone to capture our special day! Megan helped us develop a timeline and prioritize elements and details of our wedding that were most important for us to capture. Our whole wedding day, I felt very comfortable and confident- I knew Megan understood our vision. She was very accommodating, making sure to capture what was important to us. Again, she made being in front of the camera feel effortless. I am blown away with the sneak peek pictures we got back. She absolutely captured our vision, our guests, and my husband and I perfectly. Everyone I’ve sent pictures to has raved about how amazing they look. Her photos are truly stunning and I can’t wait to see our whole gallery. I would absolutely work with Megan again in the future!

I was born and raised in High Point NC. I have always enjoyed being around a camera, at a very young age I would have glamour shots done at my dads house and I think I knew then that I wanted to do something to capture other peoples special moments. When you step in front of my camera on your special day you will never have to worry about how to pose yourself or others, I will take care of everything for you. Once you get your images back you will be able to relive your entire day from start to finish, every small detail will be captured. When I'm not capturing someones special day, you can find me hanging out with my 3 kids and husband!

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t say enough great things about Chelsea. From the first time I talked to her (we bonded about healthcare problems haha) I knew she was who I needed for my day. Fast forward to our engagement photos, she literally hiked basically straight uphill for a mile with us AND we saw a snake and she still kept going and got the PERFECT photos, even though we all forgot water. We also did a few other sessions with her in between which were also amazing. Then the wedding day comes, she was the MVP for our day and helped with anything I needed help with, even if it had nothing to do with photography. We just got the album and it was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, not to mention you get SO many pictures. She’s not only an amazing photographer, but such an all around amazing person that eases your mind as a bride throughout the day. There is no way I could have chosen someone better than her and I’m SO grateful I found her on here!

Ethereal Moments Art

Burnsville, NC
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves North Carolina

My name is Wioletta, but you can call me Viola. I am a professional photographer based in the mountains of North Carolina where I reside with my three children, partner, a Great Pyrenees dog and a Siamese cat. I have a degree in Visual Art, but I have been fascinated by photography since I was 14 years old. I moved to the United States from Poland when I was just 16. I created my first photography business in 2010 where I shot moody and aesthetic self-portraits that I later sold as prints. I also designed logos and CD covers for bands. I created my wedding business, Ethereal Moments Art, in 2018 and ever since it has continued to grow.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ethereal Moments Art was amazing to work with from start to finish and worth every penny. The theme of our May wedding was romantic, storybook/fairytale with lots of mauves, olive and sage colors and we wanted a photographer with an ethereal, intimate, candid style to match. We found Ethereal Moments Art by searching on the Knot. The first "difference-maker" is that the Ethereal Moments Art's website is upfront and transparent about pricing, day-of-timeline and process, which many photographers don't discuss in such detail right away. We were able to clearly envision working together. Plus, we could immediately make a decision to engage based on one of our highest priorities in vendor selection--budget. After an initial call and agreement, we had an engagement shoot. Wioletta suggested a time and place near us that captured our desire for a candid shoot in nature. We had not had a formal photoshoot done before, and Wioletta was professional, patient when we ran into traffic, gave helpful direction, made us feel comfortable, and took charge to capture us while the sun was going down and we were super sweaty! You can't tell at all in the final photos, either - it was a great way to get to know Wioletta and establish trust before the big day. Wioletta helped ease our minds and prepare us for the wedding day by asking for a list of photos that we wanted to have such as locations during first look, family portraits, etc. She and her shooting partner were on time and started working immediately. Even while the bride needed extra time due to a nervous stomach Wioletta was patient and adapted quickly, used that time to collect more photos of family and the venue. Wioletta did a fantastic job capturing all of the key moments, the beauty of the venue, family group portraits, and the candid moments shared amongst everyone having a great time. She provided a preview shortly after the wedding day, and then the whole album within her promised timeframe. Our album consists of thousands of photos(!) and we are very happy with them. Ethereal Moments Art's online platform made it easy to order prints, an heirloom photo album with USB containing all files, and a large framed version of our favorite image - the one of us sitting in the red chairs. It's hanging in our living room today. I cannot recommend Wioletta enough for your wedding and/or engagement. Overall, a pleasure to work with, responds promptly, and is a master of her craft. If you are on the fence, don't hesitate to book. Thanks again, Ethereal Moments Art! Our family will treasure your art for our entire lives.

I am from a small town in North Carolina. I grew up being in front of a camera doing pageants and modeling. I know what it is like to have no direction at a photoshoot and leave disappointed. I strive to never make anyone feel this way when they leave a session and certainly not on your wedding day. I coach you and help pose you so that you do not feel or look awkward. Photos are not only about how you look, but also the memories that go along with them. When I am not taking pictures, you can find me hanging out with my husband and two kids.

My wife and I had nothing short of a wonderful experience with Stephanie. She was very helpful and coordinated in planning the photo schedule, and made sure that everything happened on time despite certain delays! Stephanie was always polite and professional, easy to work with, fairly priced, and flexible (we had to have a relatively late notice change of venue). And finally, the photos were beautiful!

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!

I've been an artist for as long as I can remember. My mom gave me an old film camera sometime around 5th grade thinking offhand that I might be interested in yet another art form and boy was she ever right. From then on, I've always had a camera in my hand, documenting anything and everything. Photography has been not only my chosen form of expression for over half my lifetime, but my way of learning about the world, of getting to know people, and even of getting to know myself.

Awarded Best of Zola
Adrian is amazing! I cannot recommend her enough, especially if you're a couple that is awkward in front of a camera! We hired her for our wedding in Asheville, and she came to us in Raleigh for our engagement session. She made us feel really comfortable and didn't try to make us do any "unnatural" poses; over the engagement session, she found what worked for us, and brought out more of that! She was also very patient with our dog who did not want to cooperate at all, and still managed to get some great action shots of him! The day of our wedding, it poured! She was such a trooper about quickly moving outside when the sun poked out, and back in when the skies opened up. And when everyone hit the dance floor, she got the best personality pics of our loved ones. She was so patient with us, and everything we needed as two individuals who originally did not feel comfortable in front of the camera!

Admittedly a hopeless romantic, I simply LOVE love. The beautiful season of life that you're in right now is a gift! Having a photographer you trust throughout the entire wedding planning process, as well as someone willing to advocate for you on your big day, is such an important role, and my biggest honor. The name In Bloom is inspired by my love for flowers and how they can be seen as a metaphor for life. A delicate staple of beauty that grows and withstands the elements, ultimately blooming and weathering the ever- changing seasons. My passion flourishes in capturing life's moments that are beautiful and fleeting, like a flower In Bloom.

Awarded Best of Zola
Christan is such a fantastic photographer! She knows exactly how to make your session feel relaxed, natural, and more like capturing pictures in the moment with your significant other rather than feeling like you are constantly aware of the camera. What’s so amazing is that she will guide you on posing and then just let you have your moment afterwards. This helps prevent any awkwardness of “what do I do with my hands?!”. That being said, she does also take more “formal” shots during the session so you really are getting the best of both worlds! I highly, highly recommend In Bloom Photography if you are looking for a documentary style wedding photographer!
