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

  • Editorial style

  • Serves Effingham, SC

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
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

We are so grateful that we got to work with Anderson for our big day in May! He was so lovely to work with, and he took the time to get to know more about us as a couple before we met up for our civil ceremony. He was very communicative, and he sent us our photos well before the deadline in our contract. I would say that my husband and I are not naturals in front of a camera, and Anderson was patient and guided us so professionally throughout our wedding. We felt comfortable and trusted his vision, and it really paid off! Our photos are timeless and truly capture the emotion of that day. We will cherish them forever! We would highly recommend reaching out to Anderson if you are looking for a classic, timeless wedding portfolio. In fact, we are going to be working with him again in August when we have our reception!

After our first photographer fell through, we found Caz and luckily he happened to be available on our wedding date.

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful. Thank you Caz for giving us such beautiful memories so we can relive the best day of our lives.

Hi friends! As a kiddo, I was obsessed with 2000s rom-coms and the “perfect wedding.” After falling in love with photography and working with couples over the years, I’ve loved serving people in every stage of life: graduations, couples, families, the whole shebang. But weddings? My absolute favorite. I have been shooting weddings since 2020, and I offer digital as my default but specialize in 35mm film and Polaroids. I love to travel anywhere to capture your day... let’s make it happen!

Nell Studio was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. From the very start, their communication style was incredibly easy-going and proactive - they were always available to answer our questions and provide guidance throughout the planning process. On the day of our wedding, which took place shortly after a health issue, Nell Studio was incredibly understanding of our preferences for an intimate and socially distanced wedding. She blended seamlessly into our ceremony, capturing all the special moments without ever making us feel like we were neglecting our guests. When she delivered our gallery, she also gifted us a beautiful handmade scrapbook, knowing how much it would mean to us. We had specifically requested that our photos not be posted on social media for privacy reasons, and Nell Studio respected that request without any issues. Her work was truly amazing - the composition and quality of the photos were worth every penny. We are so grateful to Nell Studio for helping to make our wedding day so special and memorable.

No two weddings are exactly the same and neither should be the way it is photographed. Brooklyn finds inspiration in the details that each couple bring to their day; the way the shadows play off the architecture of your venue; the contrast of lace with the wild grass in a field; and, every detail makes for a beautiful collage of your day. Brooklyn enjoys photographing a mixture of candid and posed to create photographs that complement each other but are unique in themselves. Dynamic black and white photographs and color photographs true to life are her preferred way of photographing any wedding or couple

If you are looking for a wedding photographer, Brooklyn is amazing! She is not only a wonderful photographer who captures beautiful unexpected details along with big picture, but she is the most calming presence to have around on your wedding day. She was relaxed, poised and confident the entire time which automatically made me stress free and calm! She also turned around the pictures so much quicker than many wedding photographers I've heard about, which is a huge plus! It's so nice to continue to live the day over through the beautiful pictures without having to wait months. Oh, did I mention the pictures themselves are GORG. Love them all!

I walk through my life with an eye for light, stories, and emotion. I have been photographing weddings for just shy of a decade now and can say that the people, places, and stories I have witnessed have shaped me. The friends I have made along the way I continually try to invest in them and their families. I am excited that you are here and that you are interested in having me join this journey with you. If you are fired up for your wedding day, love life a little too much, and think we could be friends go ahead and send an inquiry. Let me tell your story in an intimate way that reflects who you both are together.

Max is phenomenal, not only as a photographer but as a human as well! We moved from Colorado to Arkansas shortly after getting engaged, and because we had already selected a wedding venue in Colorado, our plan was to hire Max for engagement photos in Arkansas only and go with a CO-based photographer for the wedding. After meeting Max and hearing his story, we knew we were going to forgo our original plan and hire him for both sets of photos. Our engagement shoot was so much fun, and my husband and I both felt comfortable the entire time (which is rare for us, we're awkward people!). We knew once we got our engagement photos back that hiring Max for our wedding was the right choice, and man did he prove us right! The second he arrived at our venue on wedding day, he fit right in and made everything feel fun instead of stressful. Our family, friends, and guests are still raving about how much they loved our photographer because he was a joy to talk with and brought such a positive energy to the event. My parents even commented that Max felt like family because he made everyone feel comfortable and truly brought out the joy in everyone while we did family photos. The photos we have received back so far are outstanding - Max has a great eye and his use of light is exactly what we wanted. We are forever grateful that he was willing to travel across the country to document our day.

I specialize in editorial-style wedding photography, combining artistic storytelling with real, candid moments. What drives me is capturing the love, joy, and connection that make each wedding unique. For me, it’s not just about taking photos it’s about preserving the emotions and details of one of the most meaningful days of your life, so you can relive it for years to come.

TreyJPhotography was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding day. From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, professional and kind, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was detailed, personalized and well thought out - the final edited photos truly captured the uniqueness and beauty of our special day. They took away so much of our stress by planning out the shots and timeline beforehand, allowing us to just be present and enjoy the moment. We couldn't be happier with the memories TreyJPhotography helped us create, and highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.
