Working with Rebecca was an absolute dream from start to finish—starting with our initial meeting, through our engagement shoot, and all the way to our wedding day! She is incredibly friendly, and she has a unique ability to make professional photos feel easy, natural, and fun. When my husband and I began searching for a wedding photographer, we knew we needed someone we felt completely comfortable with on such an important day, and Rebecca was the perfect choice. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We also feel so lucky to have worked with her amazing 'day of' team—Luisa, Chris, and Maggie.

Laurel & Jakub were very easy to work with, super responsive and willing to be flexible - roll with the punches - as we were married in 2020 during the craziness of the pandemic. They were also super great after the wedding when my computer crashed losing all my stored photos. Laurel sent them right away. You will enjoy these lovely people.

My husband Kevin and I were looking for an elopement photographer in Cary, NC. It was a challenge to find the right person as we needed someone who's bilingual (Spanish and English). Candy is a wonderful person and photographer. She made us feel so comfortable, specially my husband who is ex-military and is a little bit of an introvert. I am so thankful for her talent as she was able to capture the perfect moments. The quality and artistic style of her photos are out of this world.

Raleigh, NC
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

I am a photographer in the Raleigh, NC area but I am totally willing to travel. I love to capture life and all its glory. I am originally from Glasgow, Scotland which is why my company's name is Beatha. It is Gaelic for LIFE. I capture life in the most raw form and curate it for my clients to enjoy for years. I love taking a moment in someone's life and making it last a life time. I love to shoot documentary style with very candid moments. People's true emotions are more clear this way and I always find it the most beautiful.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Beatha Photography for our engagement shoot in Boston Common, and the experience was truly exceptional. From start to finish, Beatha was incredibly professional, making us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire session. The beauty of Boston Common was captured perfectly, with Beatha having a natural eye for lighting, composition, and the scenic backdrop. Every shot felt candid and genuine, reflecting the special connection between us. Not only is Beatha extremely talented, but she was also prompt, organized, and attentive to our vision. Her attention to detail and ability to capture the emotion of the moment were beyond what we could have hoped for. The final photos exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We highly recommend Beatha Photography for any special occasion – she truly goes above and beyond to deliver outstanding work. Thank you, Beatha, for making our engagement shoot such a memorable and beautiful experience!

Hi! I'm Elise and I have been a professional photographer since 2020 and have found a love and passion for capturing weddings! I've been married to my guy since 2010 and have 4 kids. My favorite part of a wedding day is the first look and dancing at the reception! I love sushi, hiking with my family, and my plant babies

Of all of the vendors and activities surrounding our wedding, aside from actually marrying the man of my dreams, the most important thing to me was the photos. Elise and her assistant did a beautiful job capturing our day and all of the special moments. We were able to get the shots that mattered to us most. I would use her again in a heartbeat!

Katey Vaughan Photography

Raleigh, NC
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,700

It is the biggest honor to photograph your wedding. Your wedding is a day you hope to remember for the rest of your life and I don’t take my role as a wedding photographer lightly. Whether you’re a newly engaged couple looking for a photographer for your wedding or just an engagement session I have something for you! The best moments on your wedding day are the unexpected, intimate moments.

I will post and gush about Katey as a photographer for forever. She has been a WONDERFUL woman to work with. When I first posted looking for a photographer - instead of pitching me on the phone, we met on a video call - talked about me, my wedding vision, and I never felt any pressure from her. ( I knew on the call I wanted her but what is life without a little suspense) Since then she has been a dream. She is SO communicative, she has been flexible, and it was so comfortable to be photographed by her. Besides having the actual BEST experience - both in how she worked to make it comfortable for everyone (me and my husband) and then (me and all of our families on the day of). she is also a KILLER photographer - I will always always always refer back to her incredible skill with how she photographed my day. She truly has her own vision for capturing all of (and ofcourse the best) moments in a wedding. I cannot say enough nice things about Katey. ** funnily enough my sister in law got married about two weeks before me and ended up liking Katey's pictures in our wedding better than her own. So if you read nothing but my last sentence - you will truly love working with Katey - your pictures will turn out incredible and it will be such a great and natural experience.

Hello my name is Mirabela, I am a wife, a mom and a woman on the go. Standing still is not in my nature! Many might wonder how did you come up with that name? Well my first born, was my inspiration, my drive. Sofia for the longest time couldn't pronounce the letter S and she would call herself Fofia. She has thought me to be a better person and made me a new me. The Sailboat on my logo represents my son Hunter known as Captain Hunter. There is many ways to look at things, and what of a better way other than capturing those angles with my camera. I don't just capture pictures, I capture a story, Your Story!

I loved working with Fofia Studio Creations and Mirabela! Not only are her photos gorgeous but she is so easy to work with. She really pays attention to the details and strives to make everything as easy as possible for her couples and other vendors. I definitely recommend working with her!

I'm a wife, cat + dog mom, Charlotte NC native, and all around hype woman. I love capturing experiences. Above all else I love watching my couples interact with each other expressing and showcasing their relationship. What truly makes me passionate is to be able to capture their love story with artistic beauty and elegance. I love to provide them with gorgeous candid images so that every time they revisit these memories it inspires the contentment and enduring emotion they hold in their hearts from that day.

Cirque91 was amazing to work with! She paid attention to what we wanted while also giving professional advice/suggestions to maximize our experience. We received over 800 shots and every single one is better than the next! She was very organized and made it a wonderful experience. Very personable, easy to work with, and communication (which was important for me in a photographer) was amazing. Thank you Brennan!!

My name is Giovanna (you can call me Gio!) and I'm a traveling wedding photographer based in North Carolina. I've photographed everywhere from the DMV, NYC, Colorado, Hawaii, Spain to tons of other locations. Having a background in photojournalism, I photograph with a documentary approach which allows an organic and authentic feel to shine through my images. If you value emotion, connection, and creative storytelling, then I'm your girl. I was born in the bustling city of NY and later moved to a horse farm in NC. I was constantly amazed by my ever changing environments and inspired to capture moments that would otherwise be lost in memory.

Gio is INSANELY talented. I’ve worked with her for several life events, the biggest and most important investment being our wedding. Gio is professional and organized, a dream for any bride to work with. She has a gift for making you comfortable in front of the camera and provides expert guidance that makes shooting with her feel effortless. Her passion for her craft is palpable, and you know it’s good when she turns the camera around and says “YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!” Every album I’ve received is a breathtakingly beautiful, cinematic keepsake of the most special moments. Her work is literal ART. I’ll never forget the emotional experience of receiving our wedding album - we literally laughed and cried for hours. Every detail and moment is so intentionally and artfully captured. It’s been two years and I still swoon over our wedding photos. I’ve had several (also obsessed) friends inquire about our wedding photography and even book their weddings with Gio. She is easily one of the best investments I made for my wedding day and I can’t say enough positive things. As a repeat client, I so look forward to working with her again in the future. No question - book with Gio!

I'm a wedding photographer based in Raleigh, but my roots trace back to the beautiful state of New Jersey. Photography has been my passion since I can remember, and I'm incredibly grateful to turn that passion into my profession. As a wedding photographer, I have the honor of capturing the most special moments of a couple's life and turning them into cherished memories that last forever. Beyond weddings, I love photographing families and people from all walks of life, freezing moments in time that tell unique stories.

Nicole was a BREEZE to work with from start to finish. She was so attentive from just the first zoom we had. She truly cares so much about every little detail that you want out of your photos & she will go above and beyond until it is met! From booking her for my wedding she did our engagement photos, my bridals, a boudoir session as a wedding gift, and even a little Christmas card session! She’s truly a gem. I will continue to use her for all my photography needs in the future & I truly feel like I have a new sister after working with Nicole! You won’t regret choosing her!

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.

The vibrant colors that Elyssa captures are my favorite! Besides being super talented she is a delight to be around. She is approachable, yet completely professional. I have worked with Elyssa on many weddings and it has always been a great experience. I would highly recommend Kivus & camera!

Hi, I'm Tom! I'm a husband, dad (of 2 humans, 1 dog, 1 cat, and 4 chickens), and have loved weddings since my first reception conga line in 4th grade. When I'm not photographing weddings, you'll find me tending my vegetable garden, eating Tex-Mex, rewatching RuPaul's Drag Race and going for hikes around North Carolina & visiting family in New England.

We had an amazing experience with Tom as our wedding photographer! Before the wedding, he was quick to respond to any communication and very intent on making sure he knew what he wanted. At the wedding, he was very professional and went above and beyond every step of the way. He was attentive and captured every special moment. The photos are really amazing and he did an excellent job directing us and our families during the posed photos and capturing candid moments without intruding. He got our gallery to us quickly and the photos were beautifully compiled. We cannot recommend Tom enough!
