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!

Hello, I'm Whitney. I’m a wedding photographer who loves capturing all the small moments in life. My passion for photography started long before it became my profession. I've always been captivated by how images can capture emotions, preserve moments, and tell stories that transcend time. With every click of the shutter, my goal is to freeze not just the smiles and laughter, but the deep feelings and love behind them-those tender moments that deserve to be cherished forever. For me, photography isn't just a job; it's an art form, a way to encapsulate the beauty in life's fleeting moments.

We couldn’t be happier with the photos taken by Whitney! From the very beginning, she took the time to get to know us, learning about our personalities and what we love, which made the whole experience feel so personal and special. The session was incredibly comfortable and easy—she made us feel at ease in front of the camera, and we could truly see her talent shining through. Not only did she capture the perfect moments, but the quality and creativity of the photos exceeded our expectations. Plus, the turnaround time was incredibly quick, which was such a pleasant surprise! We’re beyond thrilled with the results and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer with both skill and heart.

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. When I am not hidden behind my camera, you can find me hiking up a new mountain with my fur babies, eating tacos, or spending quality time with my little family. I started out capturing families, then realized that my heart is completely drawn to love & the bond that two people share. I describe my photography as bold, intimate & sincere. I enjoy capturing the small, yet sometimes unseen gestures & reactions as well as the pure romance between two people on their wedding day.

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.

Our work involves a lot of interaction between you and your partner: the way you smile, hug, laugh and goof off together. We use natural light to create artistically genuine moments. Your images should reflect you and your day, and should vividly take you back to that exact moment in time. Our ultimate goal is to be a companion with you throughout your wedding planning process as a friend, not a vendor. We're not someone who simply ‘gets the job done’— We're with you every single step of the way, from the first time we talk until your images are delivered.

They did everything they could to get all of the shots I wanted and was super patient with my very excited family. Would recommend over and over!!

My personal passions are deeply rooted in fashion, design and minimalism. These influences are deeply steeped into my wedding work.

We wanted shots that went beyond the traditional “wedding shot,” and Ashley absolutely delivered. She went above and beyond to help capture all the intimate details of our wedding. From actual location scouting to planning the timeline to receiving the final batch of photos, Ashley’s experience and eye for detail shone through. As one of our relatives said, “OMG!

MSMP Media was the perfect choice for our wedding. Beyond the fact that their editing style was what we were looking for with bright photos, their team was incredible. We had the pleasure of working with their West Michigan Team. Jordan was fantastic and even got me a small birthday gift because my wedding was on my birthday! It was small details like this that really made our experience so great. She was great at getting us ready for photos with great directions. None of the wedding party were huge "photo" people, but she made us feel comfortable to allow for such great photos. Her eye for shots was fantastic. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos from everyone that we have shared them with! Beyond the photos themselves and the actual wedding day, Marisa had great communication. We received sneak peak photos within a day of the wedding and had the entire album less than a month out of the wedding. From what we have been told, this is a great timeline. We are so happy to have booked MSMP!

I pour my heart into every photo I take, blending a classic style with a unique touch. People inspire the stories I tell, and to truly understand a story, you need to know the people behind it. Each person brings a fresh perspective on love and life. Without the wonderful individuals in front of my lens, my photos lose their meaning and authenticity. I’m here to not just capture your story, but to tell it beautifully. That’s why I love photography.

Jordan G Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography needs. From the start, her communication was thorough, quick, and reliable, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work really stands out amongst the competition - the photos are beautiful, dramatic, and truly memorable. Jordan G Photography took care of both our engagement and wedding photos, and we are thrilled with the results. She did a fantastic job capturing our special day, working with us at our desired locations and guiding us through the poses to get the perfect shots. We couldn't have asked for a more skilled and attentive photographer, and we would highly recommend her services to any couple looking for wedding photos they can cherish for the rest of their lives.

Hey y'all, I'm so happy you are here! I'm Payton. I'm based in Asheville, NC but will travel to wherever your love takes you. When I'm not on a photoshoot I'm either traveling, hiking, or spending time with my family. I have been a photographer for 10 years and photographing weddings for 5. I have a BFA in Photography from RMCAD. I LOVE getting to know you and helping you plan out every minute detail of your wedding day. My passion is capturing the essence of my couple's love, every story is uniquely you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Payton was a hidden gem that I found through an intense Instagram/Facebook search for a wedding photographer. I was starting to get discouraged with the outrageous pricing of some of the big name photographers in the Birmingham, AL area and disappointed with the gallery examples of some of the cheaper options. When she messaged me back, her rates are so reasonable and affordable and her Instagram really shows how vibrant and dreamy her previous galleries have turned out. I felt like I could really trust her with capturing our special memories, I was right. Prior to the wedding, she sent out a questionnaire asking about our photography priorities and mindset. Also recently she started including an engagement session when you book her for a wedding package!! A steal! We couldn’t be happier with our photos and our experience with a Payton. She also is a traveling queen, so if you’re not in Birmingham, AL, don’t be discouraged!
