I could never give Joy enough praise for the amazing photos she captured of our wedding day!! Not only is her work absolutely stunning, but Joy's kindness and professionalism shines through her camera and makes all in front of it feel comfortable and at ease. She did a phenomenal job of planning our photos throughout our wedding day to optimize daylight and make transitions truly seamless! Joy was willing to work with us on every aspect of the wedding, from our budget, to adjusting our beginning time for our session before our wedding guests arrived, to ensuring we had captured every portrait we wanted with every family member in attendance! She is not only an amazing photographer, but also an incredibly thoughtful and kind person. After a sudden passing within my family in the weeks following our wedding Joy took the time to go through every photo she had taken of our night and provided us with all of the raw images she had captured of our family member. We will forever cherish the memories and emotions she has immortalized for us! She is professional, flexible, and so very helpful. We are so grateful for Joy, and we look forward to having the opportunity to work with her again in the future! We would 1000% recommend Joy Photo to anyone looking to capture the moments that matter the most for any occasion.

Joy was the absolute best photographer throughout our engagement AND wedding. We moved to Charlotte, newly engaged and found her through the Alexander Homestead venue. We booked her for an engagement shoot, and then for our wedding. She is not only amazing at what she does, but helps everyone feel SO comfortable. We will be using her for our family, FOREVER. It’s rare to find such a phenomenal photographer that is so responsive, kind, and amazing at their job! I hope this reaches anyone looking for their wedding (or other) photographer, if you come across this, look NO MORE :))

Working with Joy was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the very beginning, she was warm, kind, and so easy to connect with. She took the time to get to know us and what was most important to capture, which made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera.
On our wedding day, she was fun, thoughtful, and such a calming presence. She had the perfect balance of guiding us when we needed direction while also being flexible enough to capture candid, authentic moments as they happened. Even when the schedule shifted (as weddings often do), she adapted seamlessly and made sure we never felt rushed or stressed.
The photos themselves are absolutely stunning—she captured every detail, every emotion, and so many little moments we might have missed otherwise. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day all over again. We’ve gotten countless compliments from friends and family about how beautiful and natural the pictures are.
If you’re looking for a photographer who not only delivers incredible photos but also makes the entire experience joyful and stress-free, we can’t recommend Joy enough. She’s truly a gem!
