Hi! We are Lauren and Brett, a husband and wife photography team based in Western North Carolina. Our photography blends classic portrait style with natural, documentary-style storytelling. We will work with you to make a detailed plan for your wedding day to be sure that every special moment is lovingly documented into photos that you will be able to cherish for generations.

Lauren was so fun to work with. My husband and I wanted Christmas card photos made with our two puppies. She was so patient with our new furbaby and had some cute ideas for poses. The photos turned out great with our little Cooper pretty much being the most photogenic dog ever. Thank you to Lauren and we will definitely use her again!

Eugene Svirhun Photo

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Montreat, NC

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Eugene Svirhun as our wedding photographer was an exceptional experience from start to finish. His communication was always timely and he demonstrated an educated, professional approach that put us at ease. The quality of his work is truly exceptional - the photos he captured are natural, beautiful, and perfectly encapsulate the joy and love of our special day. Eugene has a unique talent for making even the most camera-shy guests feel comfortable, bringing out their natural personalities to create truly stunning images. Not only was he professional, but he was also funny and personable, seamlessly blending into the wedding festivities. He was super flexible with the timeline, even adding extra hours at the last minute to ensure he captured every moment. We are thrilled with the beautiful artwork Eugene created that allows us to relive our wedding day perfectly.

Faith M. Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves Montreat, NC

Hi, my name is Faith. I have been passionate about photography since 2017, when I first picked up a camera to capture my dogs growing up. What started as a simple love for photographing my pups has evolved into a deep passion for capturing moments that tell a story. Traveling is another love of mine, and Africa holds a particularly special place in my heart. I have been fortunate enough to visit four times, with hopes to have many more trips. When I am not behind the camera, I'm either coaching gymnastics, spending time with my two dogs and horse, or exploring the world around me.

Awarded Best of Zola
Faith was absolutely amazing throughout my entire engagement photos and wedding process. I couldn’t be happier with the way my pictures came out. I looked at her site and her style is exactly what I wanted and she stayed true to that when delivering our final pics. Both our engagement session and wedding pictures blew me away. She was always so accommodating about shot ideas I had, location ideas, you name it - but also helped so much with giving us ideas and my husband and I are awkward so that was much needed haha! She was also amazing with my crazy family and friends day of. The value of her services is completely unbeatable. I was nervous about this big purchase as it was the largest budget item I paid for my day and it was more than worth every penny - looking back I’d pay even more because I am so happy. Thank you Faith you truly are the sweetest!

I’m an Asheville-based photographer and lover of the great outdoors, home cooked meals, hot summer days, and going on adventures. I’m weird (aren’t we all?), but I’m unapologetically myself, and I am obsessed with my job and this life I am so blessed to live. I've worked with some awesome couples, and maybe you're the next!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the best experience working with Nick for our engagement photos! From the moment we met him, he made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and guided us through poses in a way that felt natural, relaxed, and fun. We shot at The Looking Glass and up in the mountains, and the views and locations he helped us choose were absolutely breathtaking—truly unforgettable. Nick brought such an easy, positive energy to the session and turned what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into one we genuinely enjoyed. Our photos turned out stunning, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly, highly recommend to anyone looking for a photographer who is talented, thoughtful, and amazing to work with!

Erin did a spectacular job capturing every aspect of our wedding! She was able to find the perfect moments and highlight them with true mastery. If there was a good angle, Erin had already found it and made sure it was flawless! Our favorite photos included places she suggested and even some special surprises that we didn't know about, like the positioning of our rings and candid family moments. Erin was so easy to work with and really made capturing this time as fun as possible. She was able to take a mountain of photos and make each and every one shine.

6 years of full time wedding photography in Asheville and over 500+ weddings documented. We offer both photography and videography in one team to make wedding days stressless. Now offering film in both photography and video (Super 8).

Maddie is incredible. Absolutely the best decision of our wedding day (other than getting married, of course). She knows what she’s doing both professionally and personally. Not only is her craft excellent, but she manages personalities and schedules well, too. Somehow she was everywhere and nowhere all at once in the best way. As people who are not extremely comfortable in front of a camera, she made us feel at ease on our special day. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent wedding photographer.

Passionate about this earth and the humans that reside within it. Striving to tell a story with every photo I take and every moment recorded. I love capturing people in their most candid and natural moments and creating unique and marketable content for businesses and brands. When i’m not shooting weddings, you can find me traveling or out on the town with my wife Kaitlyn.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brian and I will be grateful forever that we chose Darrell & Kaitlyn Cassell for our wedding photography and videography. Until we received the pictures and videos back, we thought the best part of choosing them was the wedding day experience with them. I loved their approach and energy that day. They guided us seamlessly from one moment to the next, offering gentle direction when needed, but allowing everything to unfold naturally. Nothing ever felt forced or overly posed. Their calm, relaxed presence set such a peaceful tone for the entire day. When we got the photos and videos back, our gratitude skyrocketed. The images are absolutely stunning and I’ll let them speak for themselves. I have never felt more beautiful, and it feels like the joy of the day leaps right off the screen. I’m still blown away by how they managed to capture not just how everything looked, but exactly how it felt. I would choose them over and over and over again. I could not recommend them more and wish I could relive it again and again. The incredible highlight video is the closest I'll get to that and it's perfect. Everything was perfect.

I’ve had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember, always drawn to genuine moments and natural light. As a wedding photographer based in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina, I’m inspired by both the landscape and the love stories I get to capture. What drives me is connection—between couples, families, and the fleeting moments that deserve to be remembered.

From the quiet joy of a first look to golden hour laughter, I’m honored to preserve those memories.

I cannot say enough great things about Josh Lowe! From start to finish, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire day, capturing every special moment. The pictures turned out absolutely amazing, better than I could have ever imagined!

A word of advice, hire them! Hire them for both photo and video! I feel blessed to have stumbled across Jen and Brian’s company on my search for a videographer and photographer. Jen was wonderful to work with from the get go. She was willing to drive hours from her home for both my wedding and my engagement photos. She is so flexible and ready for whatever Mother Nature throws at her. Our pictures and video are just amazing! They were able to capture the moments in such a way that it’s like you’re reliving the day over again. Throughout the ceremony I had no idea they were even there, they were like ghosts but they captured every important moment. I will cherish these photos and video forever. I hope one day I have a reason to go back up and hire them again for some photos.

We hired Jeff to take photos for an intimate outdoor ceremony (us and 12 guests). The planning process was easy and stress free. Jeff slotted himself into the day seamlessly to capture candid moments in the ceremony and the time leading up to it. He was familiar with the venue (Ijams Nature Center) and we took a jaunt through the park after, where he was able to direct us to some of his favorite spots to take photos throughout. Jeff matched our vibe perfectly and made us feel comfortable and genuine throughout. And--of course--the photos came out beautifully.

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee). Based in Iowa, I serve the Midwest, Western NC, Denver, and beyond. With over a decade of experience in the wedding industry, and well over 150 weddings photographed, it still surprises me how my love for this industry grows each year. This work is not about me, it's about the individuals in front of my lens. I can’t tell an honest story if I’m constantly interfering, directing, and manipulating moments. I want your photos to render cherished memories from your day with your people, not memories of your photographer. I’m there to tell the beautiful and imperfect story as it unfolds.

Awarded Best of Zola
There is no one in the world who does it like Haverlee. Haverlee was my family photographer growing up, she did my Mom’s maternity photos, she did my senior photos, and now my wedding photos. There is something really special about receiving photos that bring you back to moments you don’t want to forget, and that’s exactly what she captures- every single time. I’m thankful for the ways she doesn’t create staged photos, but captures genuine moments. I couldn’t recommend a photographer more than her, and am absolutely convinced I won’t ever go with another photographer!
