About this vendor
Hey Y'all! I am Emily, a Birmingham Alabama Wedding Photographer who creates clean, vibrant, romantic
photographs for couples who want their marriage and images to stand the test of time.
I have been photographing weddings for 4 years now, and have shot over 100 weddings in my career. Whenever I pick up my camera, I strive to create beautiful and emotional images that tell a story, but also showcase the beauty of both the people in the images and the world around them. This is why I love to get to know my couples on a more personal level, so that I can accurately capture images that help tell your love story.
Weddings should be all about one thing - Celebrating Marriage
Too often photographers can overshadow this by making the day more like a portfolio photoshoot. Making couples feel awkward, stiff, and even overwhelmed
So I like to do things differently. I want to make the focus this day all about you two (like it should be), and take the stress away, so you two can just relax and enjoy the day
I get to know my couples on a personal level so that they can trust me to organize and capture the day, in a way that beautifully tells their love story
Let's create moments, memories, and timeless images!

Emily photographed our wedding, and we were blown away by the gallery we received. Emily perfectly captured our day in the vision I wanted. From beautiful details to candids at the reception, we will cherish Emily's photographs forever. We had never had professional photos done before our engagement session, and Emily never once made us feel awkward. We highly recommend her to everyone! She was such a sweet person to work with!
We love Emily! She did our engagement and wedding photos and they were prefect! You could not ask for a better photographer!
Easiest 5 starts ever! Choosing Emily to capture our wedding day was hands down the best decision we made for our special day. From the first few interactions I had with Emily (a quick zoom call to get to know one another - something I LOVED about her), I knew how intentional and thoughtful she was as a photographer. Emily took my vision for our wedding & engagement photos and brought that vision to life better than I ever could have imagined! She captured every special moment so perfectly and effortlessly that every time I look back at our photos I remember the feelings and emotions of those moments vividly because they were so beautifully captured. We cannot recommend Emily enough, you will be so thankful you chose her!
Emily is THE BEST. I first saw her work after a friend of mine from college got married, and I was determined to figure out who captured their day. I was blown away by the style of the photos and how beautiful every detail was captured. I had one zoom meeting with Emily, I immediately booked her. She was my very first vendor to hire even before finding a venue! Our engagement session was so beautiful, and she really made us feel so comfortable behind the camera leading up to our big day, and our wedding day went absolutely flawlessly with the help of Emily. You spend SO MUCH TIME with your wedding photographer on your wedding day, so it was so important for us to click well with who we hired. Emily was the best choice, and now we have a lifelong friend even after our wedding season is over! I highly recommend her work to any bride! ❤️
Emily is AMAZING to work with! My husband and I used her for our engagement photos and wedding photos and we have talked so much about how she contributed greatly to making it the best day of our lives. She is professional and so sweet. She truly cares about capturing us as couple and takes an interest in our love story. She made us feel really comfortable in front of the camera which made not only our photos turn out great but our entire experience. I couldn't recommend her enough!
I highly recommend Emily, she was great with communicating with us through the entire process. We did both our engagement and wedding pictures and they turned out amazing! We were slightly nervous when we showed up for our engagement pictures and Emily quickly made us feel comfortable and we had such a great experience! Emily helped with our timeline for our big day and she was so helpful with all my random questions! All our pictures turned out just how we wanted and I would recommend Emily to all future brides!!
There are so many aspects of our wedding day that I think were absolutely perfect, but none more perfect than our decision in choosing Emily to capture our day. She flawlessly captured so many beautiful moments that my husband and I, and our families, will cherish forever. Specifically, she was so helpful in coordinating family photos, there were a ton of folks so it was a JOB. But overall, the entire day flowed so perfectly, and we can’t thank her enough for the incredible role she played in it all.
Emily McIntyre Photography was wonderful to work with, from the information session, to the engagement shoot, to the wedding day! Emily & her associate Reagan made the entire process fun & easy with zero stress! She captured me and my husband’s personalities perfectly! The engagement and wedding photos were everything I wanted & more! The hardest decision is picking our favorites! I would 100 % recommend Emily McIntyre Photography!
We are extremely lucky to have had Emily photograph both our Engagement and Wedding photos, and we couldn't be more pleased. Emily's creative outlook can turn the most ordinary settings into the perfect backdrop for the pictures you've always dreamed of and her attention to detail, along with her friendly and practical instruction, will help you feel comfortable and at ease throughout the day. Emily was very thorough in making sure we were on the same page as far as what we were wanting for our photos and answered all of our questions promptly. I would absolutely recommend Emily for all your photography needs, but especially for your wedding.
I wish I could leave more than 5 stars for Emily, she was simply amazing! I planned an out of state wedding and my first impression of Emily was her clear communication, organization and thoroughness. I knew from our first zoom call that working with her was going to put me at ease, but boy was I unprepared for just how sweet and joyful and talented she is! She captured our wedding SO beautifully. She captured all the moments we couldn't wait to relive and also enabled us to see our wedding through our guests eyes by capturing all the sweet details and emotions. I was a little nervous about the bridal portraits, since I dont consider myself photogenic and I was SO RELIEVED by the posing instruction and hype-girl energy Emily brought! We were so pleasantly surprised to LOVE every single one of the photos in our 1,000+ gallery- I feel like that is unheard of! But Emily did such an amazing job ensuring we were in the right light and the right poses that made us look comfortable and authentic. We will cherish these photos forever and the fact that Emily was such a joy to work with the entire process was such a gift. I would recommend 1,000 times over.
Emily is great!! She really knows how to put her clients at ease. I was so grateful that she was willing to listen to my ideas for pictures and she gave great directions on how to pose. Honestly felt like I made a friend on my wedding day! I would recommend Emily to anyone looking for an easygoing, skillful, and super friendly photographer.
Emily and her team (Reagan and Kelsey) shot our engagement, wedding and reception and we can't recommend them enough. Super easy to work with and they make all of the photo sessions fun and comfortable. I absolutely plan to call her next time we have a big event. Thanks Emily, Reagan and Kelsey!
Emily was absolutely wonderful. She was probably one of my best vendors when it came to communication, as I sadly had a few that were not. My husband and I are pretty laid back and having lots of photos wasnt a huge priority other than a handful of special ones. Emily was very easy to work with and produced amazing photos, especially our sunset photos after the ceremony, they are my absolute favorite!! She was very reasonably priced with excellent value as well. Can’t recommend her enough!
Emily and Reagan were absolutely AMAZING! We knew we wanted light and airy photos for our special day and they exceeded our expectations! Emily got the sneak peak and gallery to us in a timely manner. Both Emily and Reagan were helpful throughout the entire day and supportive through the experience (I loved getting to joke with them the entire day, it was like I had knew them my entire life.) DEFINITELY will recommend Emily to anyone who I hear is getting married soon!
Super accommodating and smooth to work with. They helped make our special day even more special!
I would 100% recommend Emily McIntyre to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. My husband and I could not have asked for a better photographer to have on our team for our big day!
When I began looking for wedding photographers last summer, I found Emily on Instagram. I loved the "style" of her photos and immediately reached out about her pricing details and availability. Emily replied to my inquiries quickly and with a detailed response, which was so helpful when trying to compare different photographers and what they offered.
After I booked Emily, she scheduled a phone call with me to go over the package that I booked in detail as well as other important information pertaining to my package. She went over exactly what would be offered (and how) as well as how the payment would be set up, etc. She also answered any questions that I had about the process. I really appreciated that she took the time to personally call and explain how everything was going to go down - it was much more helpful than trying to communicate via email.
By the time wedding day rolled around, I felt as if I could ask Emily for anything and she would be more than happy to help out. She really made a personal connection with my husband and I and we felt as if we could trust her with anything on our wedding day! She had created a photography timeline that helped our day go smoothly and even though we encountered a giant rain storm about an hour and a half before my ceremony, she immediately adjusted and made sure we were going to get all of our shots. She also offered moral support and encouragement to a bride that just realized her year of planning was about to be scrapped. She even offered to take more shots after our ceremony ended to ensure that we had the ones we missed due to the rain. She was seriously a rockstar that day and I am so grateful that she was so committed to capturing every memory that we wanted.
We recently got our album back and we are over the moon with how they turned out. They are exactly what I wanted and more. I am so grateful that she gave us the priceless opportunity to relive our special day again and again via photo. I added some photos to the end of this post to show just how gorgeous they turned out!
Emily made my wedding experience a 10/10 and if I had to do it all over again, I would choose her. She's the best!
Emily McIntyre was the only photographer I really wanted for my wedding, and when she told me she would be willing to travel through multiple states for my wedding, I was elated. Emily surpassed all my wishes for my wedding pictures. Sadly, it rained most of the day, but she did everything in her power to make beautiful pictures for us, and she definitely succeeded. Based on the pictures, you wouldn’t even know it was wet and gloomy outside. She was so open to ideas or poses I had in mind, and was very quick to share some of her own. I had every confidence in her and her ability and I had a stress-free mindset when it came to the wedding photography.
Emily went above and beyond to get to know my then fiancé and I personally to better capture our day and our story.
The sneak peek came so quickly! I couldn’t get enough of the pictures! They were everything I dreamed of! The entire gallery came just a couple weeks later.
If you book Emily McIntyre Photography, you will NOT be disappointed. She’s personable, fairly-priced, professional, helpful, and devoted to her work. The best of the best!
Emily was such a joy to work with! She made my wedding picture dreams come true! She was so easy to work with and made sure we felt comfortable in all of our poses! We feel like she is now part of our family.
Emily was by far the BEST decision I made for my ENTIRE wedding!!!!! Not only did she reschedule to 3 different dates for my engagement pictures due to storms, she was so patient and kind to our huge wedding party. My husband kept talking about how amazing she was and that she was so much more than a photographer. She came up with a timeline, made sure I got everything I wanted, and made sure things happened when they needed to happen. She was literally a second coordinator. . Her photos are stunning and makes taking photos so fun! I cannot recommend her enough!! I wish I could put into words how amazing Emily was!
Emily did an incredible job all around. She was on time, and she truly tried to capture exactly what we wanted 🤍 I still look back on my wedding pictures multiple times a week and I always think about how good she did. If you go with Emily you won’t be sorry!!!
I cannot recommend Emily enough! She exceeded my expectations and was so amazing to work with. My package included engagement pictures, bridal portraits, and of course our wedding day. She was very professional and willing to work with my schedule. All of the galleries were delivered to me sooner than expected and were absolutely gorgeous. Emily is so down to earth and fun to be around. She truly wants the best for her couples. I will forever be grateful for Emily and the beautiful photographs she captured that we have to cherish forever.
Would 100% recommend Emily McIntyre Photography to anyone! Emily was so amazing to work with for our engagement & wedding photos. She is so sweet and was helpful all the way through our wedding planning process.
We had some rain incoming on our day, and she was so quick and flexible at getting as many shots with our bridal party as we could, then finding us a new area with cover to take the rest of our family/group photos. And looking at the photos now - you wouldn’t have a clue there was any rain at all!
We absolutely love our photos from our engagement shoot and wedding. She is always professional and responsive any time you have a question. She was very quick at getting our photos back and we really haven’t stopped looking at them since!
Emily was AMAZING to work with. I love how my wedding and engagement pictures turned out. They are even better than I could have imagined. I get stressed out relatively easy so it was very important for me to have a photographer that made my wedding day as minimally stressful as possible. Emily did that. She was so easy going but also made sure things happened. We were on schedule all day and everything went so smoothly. A couple months later I figure out she was pregnant and super nauseous at my wedding and I had no idea at the time. She was SO professional. I would highly recommend Emily to anyone. She delivered every photo on time, was so professional, and made my wedding day better. I would choose her again if I had the choice!!!!
As a groomsman in my sister’s wedding, I feel Emily was very professional in the way she handled her job. She made sure to have everyone where they were needed to get the best shots possible. She captured my sister’s wedding in beautiful form with stunning pictures.
Emily is one of my favorite photographers. She's always had an eye for photography but each time I see her latest post on Instagram I am amazed! Her photos are always bright and beautiful, capturing everything from that "big moment" down to the smallest details, usually forgotten about.
Emily was the photographer for my sister's wedding. From previous experience with Emily, I was sure my sister would be happy with her choice. My sister loved how professional Emily was but yet relaxed enough to keep us smiling all day (and anyone who's ever been part of a bridal party knows how difficult of a task that can be!) The photos were stunning and after seeing them myself, I was only slightly jealous that Emily was unavailable for my wedding!
If you're considering Emily McIntyre Photography, don't hesitate! Book her now and fall in love with all the amazing moments she is sure to capture.
I have no idea where to start!! Emily is an amazing photographer! I personally was a bridesmaid in one of the weddings she was the photographer for! Sometimes a photography session can be a little awkward because you’ve never met this photographer in your life! With Emily this is not the case when you leave your session or wedding or whatever the case may be it will seem like you have known this amazing photographer your whole life! Not only but is she an amazing photographer she is an incredible friend, pastors wife, and mommy to three beautiful children! I’ve only personally known Emily for a couple of years, but it seems like I’ve know her for forever! If your looking for someone to capture the love between you and your loved one, or the “little moments,” I definitely recommend Emily McIntyre for all of your photography needs!!
Emily went above and beyond any expectation my husband and I could have had for our wedding day! She captured each moment perfectly and beautifully, and made us feel comfortable and at ease during the day. I was very particular when it came to a style of photography I was wanting & Emily nailed it! Even though she was from Alabama, she was willing to travel to northern Illinois to capture our day. Her rates are more than fair as well. I would hire Emily again in a heartbeat!❤️
Emily is such a wonderful photographer! I absolutely Love my pictures. She was great at listening to what photos I wanted but also had great ideas too. I 100% recommend her for your wedding day!!
