Your wedding photography should feel as unforgettable as the day itself—filled with emotion, depth, and those blink-and-you-miss-it moments that make it yours. My approach blends editorial artistry with real, heartfelt storytelling—so you get the iconic, cinematic shots and the quiet, unscripted moments in between. With a mix of film and digital photography, I create images that feel nostalgic yet modern, timeless yet full of life. Whether you're celebrating in a historic estate, a backyard under the stars, or halfway across the world, I’m here to capture it with care, intention, and an eye for the details that matter most.

She is an insanely gifted photographer who brought our wedding day to life in a way I could’ve only dreamed of. She was such a kind and comforting presence throughout the entire process leading up to and during our wedding day. Her eye for things might be incredible, but so are her dance moves. She will capture YOU as a couple, as an individual, and will show what makes you special. I cannot recommend her enough!!

What started from a recommendation from a friend turned into my life long always chosen family photographer! I will never use another one. Jessica is so great with all of her photo skills. Being a mom of 3 boys herself she has so much patience when it comes to having littles and trying to take professionals and we just love her. From my bridals, my wedding, my daughters first birthday, Easter family pics, pregnancy announcement, maternity, and my sons newborn/lifestyle pics we have done so many sessions with her and they are always incredible! She always knows when she drops some mini sessions my best friend and I will be the first ones signed up :)

I’m thrilled that you’ve found your way here. Whether I’m blasting some music on the way home from a heartfelt elopement or giving a bride one last hug before she glides down the aisle to say “I do,” I just never get tired of telling wild-hearted love stories.

Having Ellie as our photographer was the best decision we could have made! Her work is truly beyond words—it’s a masterpiece, absolutely stunning in every way. From the start, I felt so confident that she would capture everything perfectly, thanks to the amazing meetings we had beforehand. I still can’t believe how lucky we are to have had her as our wedding photographer. Not only is Ellie's work absolutely amazing, she is such an incredible human. Working with her was a dream and I loved every second of getting to know her. I truly felt such a connection with her and so comfortable, which is not typical for me in front of the camera! I could not recommend her more!!!

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 came recommended from a friend who did their engagement and wedding photos with him. We were also fortunate to have done our proposal, engagement and wedding photos with Isaac! He is so professional and comfortable to be around. My husband and I dont usually like to take photos, because we are self conscious, but Isaac took care of us. I am so grateful we came across LoveKnot and will always highly recommend them for anyone's special occasion.

We all connect to those moments that are honest. My job is to find the light and create the space that allows you to enjoy your Wedding day with presence. My clients seek me out and often praise me for spotting and capturing stolen glances and every little hidden moment then preserving it forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
He is absolutely kind, energetic, and professional throughout both of our shoots. ( we loved our engagement session so much we booked him right away for our wedding ! ) The photos and video came out beyond our wildest dreams. For two people who don't love being in front of the camera, I don't know how he does what he does. I never felt overly aware of the camera or like I was being posed. Yet somehow he pulled off the most amazing and epic photos and final video! Almost unbelievable. 10/10 recommend. The best around!

Wow, what a great day all bc of this lady...she made me feel comfortable in front of the camera, kept me from going crazy, and knows what to do behind the camera! I got to see a few and can't wait to see the rest.... You need them!!!

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’ve had the opportunity to photograph many commencement ceremonies, birthday parties, and church events as well as tons of portrait sessions. However, weddings always give me butterflies. The beautiful details, the people, and the music makes me fall in love each time. There’s something special about witnessing love as it’s most authentic moment. The day goes by so fast, and I am able to freeze every tear, every laugh, and every kiss with just one click. But it’s truly more than that, it’s about creating an experience that you and your loved ones will never forget.

She has a true talent for her craft and has a way of making everyone in front of her lens look incredible. We received a huge variety of beautifully edited photos that we will cherish forever.

Within such short notice, she coordinated meeting time, researched the area for photo ops, and was ready with so many poses for us. She even agreed to be a witness for our ceremony! Working with her during the shoot was a joy. She was very fun and upbeat, making it an even more enjoyable experience. And the pictures turned out AMAZING! So so thankful for Josie and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated photographer who will give you the most beautiful photos.

Being behind the camera isn’t just about clicking a button and editing a photo and delivering it. It’s about making sure you capture each and every detail even if the couple doesn’t realize it. I’ve become passionate in what I do because I love the smiles that it puts on people’s faces and the happy tears that stream down their face when I deliver the most beautiful album that they get to hold on to for the rest of their lives. True love is real. Capturing my couples is like bringing a romance novel to life.

Marylyn, owner of Momentous Memories, has been my go-to girl for YEARS!! She never disappoints!! She knows just how to capture the most amazing moments and love between two people. Her photography is stunning and she creates such a fun environment to be in! My husband does not like having his picture taken, but she knew exactly how to get him to open up and pose for pictures. She was great at communicating throughout the pre-wedding process and ensuring that she knew how our day was going to go. Even though on our day it poured down rain, Marylyn worked her magic and created an album of the most breathtaking photos. I will always highly recommend her to anyone I know!

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for over 10 years, and raising our two sweet boys on this little sandbar we call home is a dream come true. While we are based on the OBX, we happily serve couples on the Outer Banks and Beyond, and enjoy spending the winter months in Costa Rica.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3
