She brings an attentiveness to craft, a documentarian's eye, and an unparalleled aesthetic to her work. Meg's skill as a photographer is matched by her warm personality and huge heart!

I can't recommend her highly enough.

I started making portraits of my many nieces and nephews that lived in town. In fact, one of my nieces initiated my first paying family portrait session! Thanks Dr.Kate! I knew making heirloom portraits of kids and families was my calling very early. I am so fortunate. Initially, I made heirloom portraits on a medium format, (4 x bigger film than 35mm) film camera. Back then, I printed my work in the darkroom (or dark womb as we called it!). It is a magical process. I moved on to shooting digitally ( about 10 years ago. I started shooting video last year and am just in love with making heirloom videos of kids and families as much as still portraits. It feels like such a natural progression of my creative process. I adore photographing weddings. My philosophy is to document the amazingness of the day and let the couple see what it's like to be there and all the juiciness that they missed. No ordinary human can take in everything that is happening. Having me be a part of your special day is like having your long lost southern cousin (or Auntie) who cares about you and wants you to reexperience your special day through the lens of an experienced artist and storyteller. I hope to infuse some laughs, ease and grace into the day. I  approach the "assignment" as a documentary one with little conceptual mixed in there. I love you, I love your story and I love your face!

Josh and Shelley captured the most beautiful moments on our wedding day! I say moments rather than…read morephotos for this reason- Their talent for capturing natural moments between family, friends, bride and groom makes for the most excellent photographs to cherish, I noticed, more so after seeing the final photos that you can find someone who will snap a family picture if you tell everyone to look at the camera and smile, but it takes TRUE TALENT to capture the special moments as they are naturally happening. Shelley and Josh maximize on capturing the event as it is naturally occurring. They were also able to maximize time spent because their ability to tag team, and weaved through the event seamlessly without disturbing any guests or ceremonies. Also, they are very comfortable people to be around, which sounds silly but makes a world of difference on the most stressful day. The commitment and creativity I observed while they shoot the wedding was unbelievable. They have several camera's and lenses, which they often switched for certain photo's, they were always aware of the lighting and best places to photograph (and take excellent outdoor photo's). The value and quality we received is unbeatable, especially being able to access all the photos! After receiving the photo's and seeing my wedding through the eye's of Josh and Shelley, I can honestly say it was magical. And my wedding photo "like's" on Facebook are blowing up! Couldn't Thank them enough for the work they did!

I pretty much instantly felt comfortable working with her, even though I never got to meet her in person until the actual elopement day. My husband doesn't comment on services very much, but he was so impressed with Shelley's creativity and fearlessness in getting the best shots. She would sometimes be laying on the ground and get completely soaked by the waterfalls, and she would have us stand so close to the edge of a cliff and so close to the waterfalls. My husband got to see a sneak peek of a few shots on her camera, and his mouth literally dropped at how beautiful the photos were. We completely trusted her opinion on the stops we made in Iceland not only because she has been to Iceland before, but also because she just has that creative vision to know what looks good (her website/blog says it all). Another bonus is that she scouts the wedding ceremony area for you beforehand and chose our ceremony site, which we are so grateful for. It was intimate (away from the crowds), peaceful, and beautiful. If you and your partner are looking for someone who loves candid photos, dynamic photos with a lot of movement, and epic landscape photos, Shelley is the best photographer for that. We can't recommend her enough!

They also offered their photobooth service at a discounted combination rate. I LOVED their props. These are not typical props at all! Amish beard, cat mask, lightsabers. They were so much fun to work with. In other weddings we've attended, sometimes machines break down or they run out of paper (I know, what?!) But we didn't have any of these issues. Additionally, they sent us a super cute photo box with a USB of our photos and a lot of the print outs! One piece of advice I have for any couple is to have a mirror around, or ask your photographers to see yourself before the photos begin. Simply because my bangs didn't look as good as I wish they did. Oh well, the photos still turned out great and I loved the little details that made their photos even more romantic It was such a pleasure working with them and I would def recommend them to anyone. I hope our paths cross again one day! Love, Janny & Alex 10.19.19 Advice to brides: Think thoughtfully about how you want your wedding memorialized and explain it clearly to your vendors, preferably with pictures, examples.

We're pretty laid back and didn't have a lot of specifications about what we wanted and Justin was just so comfortable taking the lead. He made us feel at ease in front of the camera and captured so many beautiful candid moments of us and our guests. We had two 80 person ceremonies, a traditional Indian one and an American one. Both nights, Justin hustled to get every shot we didn't even know we wanted. His energy is so much fun to be around and all out guests made comments about how hard he worked and how friendly he is. Saying the pictures turned out beautiful is an understatement. They are more than we could have asked for. Going with Inner Song was absolutely the best decision we made!

Trust me when I say, Andy is without a doubt the guy you want photographing your wedding. From the…read moremoment I saw the first of his portfolio, I knew he was the perfect fit. He showed how valuable and professional he is from the very beginning. I forgot to confirm our initial meeting, but Andy made it work anyway, a sign of adaptability that we greatly appreciated. He is easy to talk to, makes you feel comfortable, and is very helpful in explaining options and posing. I am extremely picky about photos, so I looked at many portfolios before choosing to interview anyone, and Andy has the best eye I've seen by far. His photos are timeless, artsy, and just downright beautiful. You will get an amazing variation of photos: movement, perfect lighting, details, posing (with his help, thankfully!) and THE BEST candid photos. We had never been to a wedding like ours, but Andy gave great advice and really helped us visualize and plan our day. We got married shortly after Hurricane Helene so we couldn't get to our original adventure session hike, but Andy had a whole album of back up hikes for us to choose from, all of which were just as stunning as our first choice. We had the best time spending our day with Andy, we truly could not be happier with our photos. We're only a year out from our wedding and I'm already scheming for an anniversary shoot! Choose Andy, I promise you'll never regret it!
