    A family of angels, we are so grateful for

    They were the first vendor we hired after choosing the venue and it was the best decision we made. Emily and her family are amazing at what they do, and so kind! Every one of them are organized, driven and 100% there for the Brides (or bride and groom if that's your thing). My wife and I were terribly let down by the venue and the only saving grace for us was Emily and her entire staff! Without hesitation they were consistently having to do other vendors jobs to ensure we had some sort of happy moments of our wedding. We truly cannot thank them enough for everything they did and feel as if we have now become part of their family!
    Side note- Lyndsay (hope i spelled this correctly) is a beast! She was our number advocate, surprising us multiple times with her eye for details and the care for our needs. I imagine that she has taken on so much of others stresses and she does it with grace. I bet she gets it from her mama!

    My only regret is that we didn't get any pictures of us with them!

    The absolute best experience

    I cannot recommend Southern Honeybee Photography enough! From engagement photos, to our wedding photos, the Photo Booth experience (if you’re on the fence do it, best memories) and videographer, they far exceeded any expectation we had! The beauty is in their artwork of photography and I’m so thankful I found them!

    Emily became family from the start of this wedding journey and I can’t wait to call them when we need them on our next big journey, (starting a family, hopefully soon).

    Money well spent and so thankful for meeting such amazing people who made the big day extra special! My husband and I just keep reliving our day through our beautiful photos!

    Amazing Company

    Where do I begin? My husband and I didn’t think we could afford photography for our wedding, and then we met Southern Honeybee Photography. We came across their both at a local wedding expo. Their beautiful converted horse trailer captivated our attention. After speaking with the owner Mrs. Emily and her staff we fell in love. She went over their photo package and not only did we realize we could afford it, it also included videography, and a Photo Booth!!!! The entire time between singing our contract and the arrival to our wedding the company was very responsive, understanding, and professional. The day of our wedding the company was very punctual, and we ready to go at exactly the time they said they would be. This meant a lot to us. Some companies show up at the start time and still have to set up. Not honeybee! They were able to be with both sides of the bridal party so that nothing would be missed. They were able to capture all of the photos prior to the ceremony starting and were able to blend in during the ceremony as to not take away from the moment. After the ceremony they were able to capture all of the photos we requested, and wrangle our wild bunch lol. Lindsey was so attentive to me during the photos. When I was getting tired and overwhelmed she we and grabbed me a chair and water so I could regroup, and same for my husband when he was getting too hot. There we more examples of this attentiveness through to out the night. They kept checking in with us to see if there were any photos we wanted captured during the night. Also get the magic mirror!!!!! It was such a hit. Our guests loved it and having the album to look at after the night was so nice. We just received our sneak peak from Mrs. Emily and the photos look beautiful. I can’t wait to see the rest. If you need a photography company Southern Honeybee is the one to choose. I didn’t just hire a photography company, we are a part of each others lives from here forward, and we will call on them for all our photography needs here forward. We are so happy to be a part of the Honeybee family.

    Amazing Photo Crew

    On a crazy, rainy wedding day, Southern Honeybee was a class act! They handled every picture that we wanted and then some. They understood the importance of the day and were so kind. Aside from photographs, they were willing to help in any way they could from helping the bride get into buildings without getting wet to making sure she was perfectly put together constantly. We can not say enough about how great they were the entire night!! It felt like they were an extension of family on this beautiful, rainy day!!

    Captured our day perfectly

    Emily, her husband, and staff were excellent at providing videographer and photo booth services. My guests enjoyed their company. They were professional, and the photo booth was a fantastic add-on. My guests had a blast taking photos and using the props, and having the photos right after the wedding was immediate gratification. It allowed me to relive moments of the wedding and see candid photos. I love watching the video and relive the magic moments. They captured our day perfectly.

    Absolutely Amazing

    The staff at Southern Honeybee Photography are absolutely amazing! They by far exceeded my expectations. They respond in a timely manner. They are super flexible and willing to work with any schedule whether it's with payments or scheduling the session. The day of my wedding my head photographer was Abby. She also did my engagement shoot. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She went through my shot list and made sure I got all the photos that I wanted. She made myself and all my girls feel comfortable and special during the day. She worked with my wedding planner to help keep my timeline on track. My second photographer mostly took pictures of the guys and they really loved her. She made it simple for them by saying things like serious, smile and magnum, so that the guys knew what faces to make. When we did the group photos and Abby was shooing, she made sure we had drinks because it was a hot day while we were shooting. I just got some sneak peaks of my photos and I am so happy with them. I cannot wait to see the rest. I will definitely be using them for future photography sessions and recommending them to everyone I know.

    Family Owned and Amazing!

    We had the absolute best experience working with this team! It is a family owned and run business that treat you like you are their family. We did both the photography and videography option because we wanted to capture every moment and they really caught everything. Our photographer was the daughter of the owner and she helped me with my dress and the bustle, she helped me put on my veil, she even helped with my jewelry when we had an issue with my necklace. They are such honest and wholesome people that I would highly recommend them if you are looking for such great hospitality and small business support. They made our day memorable.

    The photographers and videographers for southern honeybee are absolutely amazing! Our pictures came out perfect and we are so excited about seeing our video! They were so kind and planned a schedule for the day to keep everything on track. They were very attentive to detail and making sure everything looked picture perfect.

    Amazing, the only way to describe SHB

    I Love Southerner honeybee photography. Emily was not only sweet and funny but made me feel so comfortable. Our engagement pictures turned out amazing. The pictures perfectly pictured our love and happiness. Her and her husband had us laughing the whole time. She had kept in contact through the whole engagement as well. ❤️ My fiancé and I look forward to our wedding pictures.

    Wedding photography

    Mrs. Emily and her team exceeded all expectations with their services, we knew we were going to love her the minute we saw her display. She was so loving, kind, sweet and helpful. We had them do our engagement photos and they were incredible, I have never been a fan of pictures of myself and I loved every single photo taken. We just received our sneak peaks from the wedding Saturday and I’m in tears again reliving the day through the pictures Emily and her team took. I could not imagine using anyone else from here on out. Please please if you want someone who wants your day to be everything you wanted and capture all the moments, use Southern Honeybee Photography. I promise it’ll be the best decision you’ve made!

    Loved working with Abbi and the entire Southern Honeybee Family!

    The entire team were amazing to work with. We originally booked Southern Honeybee for our wedding pictures then decided to book an engagement shoot. The pictures came out amazing! Abbi’s attention to detail shows how professional this company is. Can’t wait to see how our wedding pictures/video come out!

    Thanks for everything!

    Feels like family

    Emily was one of the best vendors to work with. She was so sweet and truly made me feel important. My husband and his guys had a blast with their photographer. Emily responds quickly and was so flexible. She made sure to listen to everything I wanted and was able to deliver.

    Best Photographer Ever

    10/10. I would recommend Southern Honeybee Photography to anyone. We worked closely with Emily as our wedding photographer. She is amazing. She did our engagement photos and our wedding. Everyone loved our photos. I could not be happier with how they turned out. Not only are the photos great, but Emily has a fabulous personality as well. She is so sweet. She randomly checked in with me in the months leading up to the wedding. And as a bride that gives you such a piece of mind that everything will turn out well. My husband and I will work with Southern Honeybee Photography for any photos we want in the years to come! Emily also had a second photographer at both shoots. They were both amazing as well. Offering to help with whatever was needed. Emily also had props available, which was an awesome bonus. Emily was a saving grace at the wedding, the coordinator at the venue wasn't on top of things, but Emily made myself, the wedding party and the family feel better about everything. At least we knew we wouldn't have to worry about the photos :) My husband and I really do look forward to working with Emily again.

    Such a great experience!

    We hired Emily/Southern Honeybee Photography for our daughters wedding and couldn't be happier with the results. We met at one of the wedding shows and then made plans to meet a few weeks later at a Panera to get some more details.
    When we arrived Emily was set up in a booth with her iPad so we could see more examples of her work. She laid out several different options for packages and is very flexible to work with.
    Honestly it felt like we were talking with a friend.
    After seeing her work it was an easy decision to make.
    The wedding was last September (yes, just now getting around to writing this) but I have looked at the photos several times since then and seem to find a new favorite each time!
    Emily and her assistant were pretty much invisible during the ceremony but got so many great shots! (I'd read reviews about other photographers blocking the view of the ceremony.)
    By the time your child is an adult you think you've seen every expression they have but Emily captured the magic and joy that was just beaming out of the bride and groom without being in the way.
    I also liked the way Emily and her assistant split up as the bride and groom were getting ready so we have photos of each.
    It was great fun going through all the candids from the reception. It was a large wedding so it was nice to see how much everyone was enjoying themselves. Emily also made sure to get family group photos during the reception.
    I wouldn't hesitate to hire Southern Honeybee Photography for any event!
