Hey there sweet bride-to-be! I'm a wedding photographer based right here in Hoover, Alabama, and I absolutely love capturing the pure joyful , once-in-a-lifetime moments. From the happy tears to the big laughs on the dance floor, my heart is all about telling your love story in the most dreamy and fun way possible!

I had never hired a photographer for any occasion before but Ahlea made the process so seamless. She immediately set up a call to go over our vision, since we weren’t having a “traditional” wedding. Ahlea was so flexible, open to our ideas & completely on board! She had the great idea of having me make a Pinterest board of inspo pictures & after seeing my own pictures, I could tell Ahlea really took on board what I wanted & envisioned. The day of she was on-time, ran around downtown Annapolis with us, she came with ideas of picturesque places & poses. We received our sneak-peak like 2 days later which was so exciting to not have to wait & then we received the rest on time. And we were OBSESSED. I’m so so happy with the choice to book Ahlea & would recommend her to anyone else looking for a photographer!! In fact, we may be in need of her services very soon again :)

Hey my name is Taylor Pickle. I’m a photographer based in Birmingham Al. I’ve been doing photography for 2 years. I would love to take your wedding pictures and capture your memories! I would love to be apart of your special day! 🤍

Taylor was called in at the very last minute when our wedding photographer woke up sick the morning of. She did a fantastic job and not once did I see her stressed! We have quite a few kids and she captured them all beautifully. The photos of our ceremony and reception were stunning as well and really captured the day well. Both the indoor and outdoor pictures were beautiful. Nothing was edited in an unnatural or unflattering way, and I enjoyed the mix of grayscale and color images she provided us. Absolutely recommend her!

My friends would describe me as a sunny and bright person, and that’s how I photograph. I love capturing joy and making sure that the session feels that way too. I am the youngest sister of four girls and it have always been surrounded by creativity (and girls borrowing all my clothes). My favorite thing is bringing that creativity and fun to my sessions, and I can’t believe I get to bring my passion to my job each day.

Krista was such a joy to work with! She keeps up with you with emails so that you always know what’s going on and how she’s getting prepped. She’s encouraging during photos and was always available to help me take a break if I needed it! The photos have turned out beautifully and I’m in love with all that I’ve seen I highly recommend her to anyone for wedding photos!

To tell your story I have to first tell ours, which begins about two years ago. Darrius and I met on a whim through a dating website and started a whirlwind romance that swept us off our feet and led us to where we are today. We started our photography journey through my mother-in-love, who put the first camera in my hands as we prepped for our engagement photos. From there it was a marriage made in heaven.

Loved every picture we received. If in Birmingham I would recommend. Also good with getting the pics you want

Hey Y'all! Thanks for stopping by! I am a bright, colorful, and classic wedding and lifestyle photographer located in Birmingham, Alabama! I believe in love and marriage, and think it is something to be treasured! I love capturing joy in people's lives, so I believe that is why capturing weddings and families are my favorites. Especially since becoming a mother myself, weddings and family sessions have even more importance to me now than ever! I consider it an honor to capture memories for my clients- whether thats on your wedding day, your anniversary, welcoming a new baby, or your children's milestones.

One of the best investments of our wedding was choosing Chelsea as our photographer! I've had so many people tell me that our photos are some of the best they've ever seen, and I couldn’t agree more. Chelsea is one of the kindest people and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, both for our engagement and wedding photos. She even went above and beyond to use her own dress to wipe something off my husband’s suit when we didn’t have any napkins around! Her second shooter on the day of the wedding was also amazing and a joy to work with. They captured every moment and more than I could have imagined! Chelsea is truly gifted at what she does, and you can tell how much she loves it. Trust me, you want her as your wedding photographer! I cannot wait to use her again for future family photos!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

Alex & Jeremy were the BEST. I cannot believe the number of compliments I received from friends and family who were at the wedding. They were the most professional and interacted with our guests all night long. During the day, we moved through our timeline so smoothly but never felt rushed in my special moments with my husband. We laughed, we cried, we danced- every moment was captured by them and we are so thankful! I was hoping that the weather would cooperate for some golden hour portraits- not only did Jeremy get the most BEAUTIFUL golden hour photos but he grabbed us just as the sun came peaking out of the clouds and got a few photos of us with my veil in the wind. I am OBSESSED with both sets of these portraits. I’ve already recommended OLAS to friends and family who are getting married. They were the best vendor I could have asked for to capture our special day!

I randomly entered Anderson’s giveaway for a free engagement shoot and was shocked when I actually won! At first, I was skeptical, but Anderson followed up and patiently answered all my (many!) questions. From the start, he felt more like a friend than a photographer. He helped us pick the perfect location and outfits, and when we had to reschedule due to an emergency, he made sure we still got our shoot—never once making us feel like “just another client.” On the day of the shoot, Anderson took the time to get to know us as a couple, and the whole session felt fun, natural, and full of love. He kept us moving, laughing, and feeling like ourselves. The preview video and final photos were absolutely stunning—we were in tears. Our friends and family were too. We’re not wedding planning yet, but when we are, Anderson will be our first call. Highly recommend—he’s the real deal.
