The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Love Knot Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Shelby, AL

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

We are in Atlanta, GA - but we love to travel and will go anywhere to tell a good love story! Get to know us better and say hi!

Hellen and Rafael were the best wedding photography and videography duo that we could’ve possibly asked for! They were so accommodating and worked around all sorts of obstacles while still making sure to capture so many beautiful moments from our special day. The fact that they also spoke Portuguese was a huge blessing since my wife’s family is from Brazil. We were over the moon with the photos and videos, literally couldn’t be happier. I would recommend Hellen and Rafael to anyone for any of their photography and videography needs!!

Not only was he able to pick up the booking the week of, but was able to do, what i consider, superior work while saving the couple money. I don't believe you can ask for more than that.

Hi, I’m Shelby, a wedding & elopement photographer with a love for travel and a sparkly, lively personality. I’ve had the privilege of working with couples across various destinations, bringing my energy and passion to every celebration.

We had a small backyard wedding, and the space was intimate, and full of love. We felt so comfortable with Shelby, like we had an old friend documenting our day. Our family and friends also felt the same. Shelby made everyone feel seen and celebrated, creating a space where love was the only thing that mattered. She even handled a little family drama like a CHAMP. Every photo she took told a part of our story and we’ll cherish them forever. If you want someone who brings energy, creativity, and so much heart to your big day, look no further. Shelby made our intimate backyard wedding feel like something extraordinary. We love her!

Intimate wedding photographer originally from the coast of VA, but now based in the North Georgia Mountains & love finding new adventures while exploring the outdoors.

I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions as well as the pure romance between two people on their wedding day.

My (now) husband and I had the opportunity to do a styled shoot with Phillip and Heather in August 2020 and it was one of the most fun, creative, and easy-going photoshoots I've ever done. My husband is not comfortable in front of the camera, and they had him laughing, smiling, and relaxed during the photos of us together and the ones of him alone. I can honestly say the photos they produced are my favorite of any shoot I have ever been a part of (I model and have done a lot of wedding style shoots through the years). When we met Phillip and Heather through the styled shoot, we had already booked a photographer for our actual wedding in Sonoma in May 2021 (we were a covid wedding and original date was supposed to be April 2020). Our wedding finally happened, we got our photos back from the photographer we booked out there and while they’re beautiful, they don’t compare to what Phillip and Heather created during our styled shoot together. The creative eye and direction they give is what gets the incredible shots that make your jaw drop, and that is something that sets them apart tremendously. I was wishing SO bad that we had them as our photographers for our big day. So much so, that I asked them to do a redo shoot for us in my gown and his tux so we could recreate the big day as much as possible and have the beautiful pictures they create to keep forever!! And those pictures are my absolute favorites we’ve ever taken!! I just love them so much and cannot recommend them enough. We laughed until we cried a few times while we were together and created magic in between. They’re great people and the perfect duo. Anyone would be lucky to work with them.

We are so happy we chose Lucia to capture our elopement. Lucia is professional, fast to respond to emails and texts, helpful with decisions, accommodating to any requests, concerns, and excited to give advice. Duncan and I really wanted our photographer to capture our true emotion and to get candids of us, and Lucia DID THAT! The day felt blissful and a key point for us was that we got to enjoy the day without it feeling solely like a photoshoot which I think speaks to Lucias talent and confidence in her craft. She was good at giving guiding advice for posing without us feeling posed. I put together a Pinterest board and shot list which she really did a great job pulling inspiration from. The photos are stunning and the exact style we envisioned. Also, our sneak peak was huge and she got them to us very fast. If you are torn between photographers or are just starting your research, you're in very safe hands to stop here. We hope to continue reaching out to Lucia in the future when we start a family.

TLDR: she is talented, professional & kind very helpful as someone with limited mobility. Tessa & her team photographed & recorded my wedding last weekend, and they were a dream to work with. I am chronically ill & so I knew on my wedding day I could not be running around to different locations for photos, and Tessa was extremely mindful of that fact & made sure to work within the parameters of what was doable for me. I was worried my limited mobility would mean my photos would be a little boring, but she's already sent a handful of pictures over for a sneak peek & they are GORGEOUS. Tessa is a true professional but also someone who clearly loves what she does, which I think really shows in the quality of her work. Could not be more glad to have had her & her team document my special day! :)
