Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, working with Zoom Wedding Studio was a dream. Our experience with them was that they were responsive (operationally we worked the most before and after the wedding with Helen and she was fantastic). 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. We loved how the photos turned out and our guests have been raving about them as well. We cannot wait to see the completed video! I wholeheartedly recommend Zoom Wedding Studio and appreciate their care in covering our wedding day.

Hello! I’m Sharon and I own Sharon Elisabeth Photography. I feel so grateful every day that I get to capture the most heartfelt moments and feelings that occur during weddings as well as documenting the relationships between people who love each other so much – families, friends and couples! I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

Sharon and her second shooter, Hannah, are simply the best. Sharon's professionalism, creativity, customer service and commitment to detail were unmatched during the planning process and everything came to a beautiful crescendo on our wedding day in Charlotte, NC in June 2024. She understands family dynamics and approaches her work with love and respect. Her innate ability to capture light, emotion, movement and grace cannot be overstated. I wish there was a 10-star rating.

From the moment we first spoke with Mike, the owner of ParksPictures Photography, we knew we had found the perfect photographer for our wedding day. His communication style is professional, warm, and creative - he was a great listener and very proactive in understanding the specifics of our wedding to ensure he captured everything perfectly. Prior to the wedding Mike shared maps with us to understand the location of the photos and he also reached out to the church office manager to determine what was allowable in terms of photography during the ceremony. On the day of the wedding he provided excellent guidance during the posed family and friends photos, making the process seamless and enjoyable. The final photos are absolutely stunning - Mike has an incredible eye for detail and captured the love and joy of our special day in the most beautiful way. We are so grateful to have worked with Mike, and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband, kids, and I have relied upon Jeff for just over 10 years for all of our photographic needs. Is he great behind the camera? Of course, he is amazing. But that is not what compels me to leave this review. Jeff isn't just a photographer, he is family. Whether he met you 10 minutes ago, or 10 years ago, you will be family. Period. Your vision becomes his vision. Your excitement, sincerely, becomes his excitement. His humility and genuine investment to get it right is rare and his energy is infectious. What Jeff brings to an event or shoot is an absolute commitment to capture the moments that make the memories, and along the way he will offer expert advice, display technical proficiency, and will exude integrity and unquestionable professionalism. We have engaged Jeff on 6-7 specific requests, and have been at many events where he was there in a professional capacity. He has perfectly captured our daughter's runway shows (she is a designer of special occasion wear), our kid's graduations, special events, and other family shoots. When we have a wedding, I know we already have a photographer already lined up! Jeff is our photographer, but more importantly, I know that when we have our next moments to capture, he will also be there as family.

I'll work with your best angles to get flattering pictures that you love yourself in. You don't have to worry about any weird moments like "where do I put my hands". I'll coach you on exactly what to do, and you can act in a way that feels the most natural to you. If something looks weird, I promise I'll step in and fix it- so you can fully enjoy yourself in the moment!

Where do I even begin?! Savannah is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but also one of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet. From the very first meeting, she took the time to get to know us, then captured our engagement photos, bridals, and finally our wedding day. Every step of the way, her attention to detail was unmatched. Her personality is so bright and bubbly that being in front of her camera feels natural and fun. She knows exactly how to encourage you, pose you, and capture those authentic, joyful moments. I would describe her photos as bright, colorful, and timeless—that perfect natural light look I had always dreamed of. In fact, I knew I wanted Savannah as my wedding photographer even before I was engaged, because her vibrant style was exactly what I was looking for! Leading up to the wedding, she had us fill out a detailed form so she could make sure every photo request was covered. And let me brag on her a little extra: my wedding was in August, and Savannah had a baby in June! That didn’t slow her down one bit—she still showed up with the same energy, professionalism, and talent she’s known for. Truly amazing! If photos and memories are important to you, I highly recommend booking Savannah for extra hours and adding her second shooter. Having them both there gave me peace of mind, and the results were better than I could have ever imagined. Our engagement, bridal, and wedding photos are beyond anything I hoped for, and I feel so blessed to have those memories preserved so beautifully. Savannah goes above and beyond in every way. She makes sure every requested shot is captured, she never leaves until she’s confident she has what she needs, she delivers photos on time, and her quality is phenomenal. On top of that, her website is full of helpful resources—from outfit guides for engagement photos to timeline templates that made wedding planning so much easier. Overall, if you want a photographer who delivers vibrant, natural, joy-filled photos, who is encouraging, professional, and truly cares about your experience—Savannah is your girl. Choosing her as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, hands down!

When I shoot photography, it’s not about composing the perfect pictures or getting a great shot. Yes, those things are essential. But, to me, photography is so much more. It’s about capturing a moment in time that you will forever be able to look back on and feel something magical.

Emily was such a pleasure to have be a part of our day! She was very professional through the entire process and made sure she knew exactly what we were looking for and expecting. We received a few teasers within 24 hours after the wedding that we could share with friends and family and received the entire package in a very timely manner! All of the ceremony shots were so intimate, the traditional shots turned out perfect and all of our couple shots were so elegant and very creative! Emily did a great job taking our vision and making it come to life! We will be showing off our wedding photos the rest of our lives and we are so glad we put our trust in Emily to make them everything we dreamed!

We are 2 experienced photographers that have joined forces after a decade in the wedding industry as a full-service photo video team. We are here to tell your story in a way that truly captures your uniqueness. Our focus is to provide you with professionalism, confidence, a joyful and unforgettable day-of experience and above all photos and video that you can look back on and re-live the emotions from your wedding day.

Steph and Stef Photography has been out go-to for our large corporate events for years. We have multiple events every year that range from 30 people to 800 people, and I love that I feel confident reaching out to this partner for so many different events. We rely on them for both indoor and outdoor events, and their images always turn out so well. Their communication style is friendly, flexible, and casual. It's easy to reach out to them, make requests, talk through specific needs, and get their input on what works well for our event/venue/lighting/etc. Their photos always exceed expectations with dynamic, fun images capture the feeling of the event. I'd like to share a recent experience with Stefanie Haviv at our 250 person company Christmas party. The event, a formal event at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, NC, had a special focus to celebrate our company's founder's retirement. The event was structured similarly to a wedding with sections of planned speaking and unstructured mingling time. We had very specific things we needed captured for the structured activity, but we had fewer instructions for the free-form periods. Stefanie nailed the specific images we wanted and recorded these key moments so well. Her talent was most evident, however, in her candid photography. We weren't sure exactly what we wanted image-wise for the unstructured portions of the evening. Stefanie took it upon herself to find the most touching, personal, lively moments of the event to tell the party's story. Her work is dynamic and adaptable, and she was able to use the space's lighting and the crowd's energy to create images we loved. We are looking forward to the next opportunity to work with Steph and Stef!
