Amazing team! Highly recommend
The Oberports are top notch in every way. If you are looking for a documentary/storytelling style look no further! They are highly skilled at capturing raw moments with creativity. Their passion for photography, art and people shine through their work! We are still in awe at our weddings photos, and look at them time and time again. The Oberports are amazing communicators, professional, kind, talented, caring, funny and so much FUN! They made the entire day such a breeze and the whole process was so easy and light. They make sure you can enjoy your day while still getting high quality, amazing photos that last a lifetime. We are so pleased, and highly recommend them! -

Ryan P. Sent on 08/08/2021Could not have asked for a better photography team!
We recently worked with the Oberports for both our engagement and wedding photos. We could not be more ecstatic with the results! Their work is flawless. We continue to get comments about how good the photos are, and they definitely captured the energy, spirit and heart of both our engagement and our wedding. They are also super easy to work with. They have a knack for being there for all of the great opportunity shots – including when our daughter took it upon herself to grab the mic from the DJ and bust out a karaoke song on our big day. Their images of this and countless other moments are priceless, and we are so thankful that we have them. - Ryan and Mary Poquette -

Margaret H. Sent on 08/22/2021Best Experience with the Oberports!
Emily and Bobby are the BEST! In short, they are professional, communicative, beautiful artists, and so, so helpful. We moved to WV last summer, and our original wedding plans were postponed. We still wanted to get married in a mini-ceremony. Once I saw their photos at Dolly Sods, I knew it (the location and them as photographers) was exactly what we wanted. They helped immensely with their elopement guides online, and the entire wedding day went extremely smoothly. We printed so many of the photos (and probably could have printed more! So amazing!) They will be photographing our newborn in a couple short weeks. So excited for the photos! -

Easy peazy professionals
Choose this couple! They are true artists and they know how to produce beautiful images for your big day. They have the experience to know what looks good and what doesn't. Because they are a team, you get unique angles of every moment during the ceremony and reception. Super cool couple. Book them. -

Megan A. Sent on 09/16/2020Amazing Photos & Excellent Experience
If you have the option, book The Oberports. This was the easiest and best decision we made while planning our wedding. They were extremely easy and wonderful to work with even during the ever-changing circumstances of 2020. We were greatly appreciative of their patience as we were deciding what to do since our original wedding plan was no longer an option.
The photographs are phenomenal, and the way they capture moments as they happen naturally is truly beautiful. They took our engagement photos earlier in the summer and those, too, are amazing. BONUS: they can also capture really fun photos of your three/four-legged family members! I am so grateful we will be able to look back on these pictures for years to come and be reminded of this special time in our lives. If you are looking for a team to photograph your life’s big moments, you cannot go wrong with The Oberports. -

The Oberports are amazing! They have so much talent and experience and know how to capture the perfect moments from a wedding. They were fun and easy to work with and kept us all on schedule for the day. I was blown away looking at the pictures and how amazing they all are! They captured moments and things I didn't even know were happening and I was so glad to be able to look back on the day and feel like I was reliving it all over again :) -

Amazing throughout the whole process!!
If you're on the fence about hiring The Oberports for any reason, don't be and just hire them already!! They were so great and easy to work with! They truly went above and beyond, from the materials they send out that help with planning and managing time during the wedding, to actually scouting out our ceremony site in a state forest to make sure we choose the best site possible! Not only were they beyond helpful and professional, they are also very easy to be around. Every single person at the wedding had nothing but positive things to say about them.
All of the pictures are absolutely gorgeous. Every time we look through them, we end up tearing up. One of my favorite things about the photos The Oberport's take is that they really do focus on the people, which was so important to us. We had a small wedding with family and friends from all across the country, and it has been so special to us to have those photos of all of the people we love at our wedding. We will truly cherish these photos forever!! -

Amazing! Beautiful!
Where to begin with reviewing these 2 talented individuals? 5 stars doesn't truly seem to be enough! I had a very specific idea in my head what I invisioned for my wedding photos! Emily and Bobby listened to my desires and produced everything beyond my wildest dreams! They captured every emotion that I felt that day and some I didn't even realize I was having! I cherish every single moment I spent with them and what they captured for me to cherish forever! My vision was very dark. My colors were black and gold. I envisioned my wedding being as dark as a candle lit castle! The images they captured were spot on. So very romantic and dreamy! Emily and Bobby's attention to detail and capturing a feeling or a look is unbelievable! With over 700 photos to choose from there isn't a single "bad" shot! How do I choose what to have printed out and not have 700 photos all over my house! I can not wait to work with them again and see the beauty they are able to capture! The beauty I didn't even know existed before I saw their work! -

Erin Sent on 05/30/2018Let's see, where do I begin in explaining how wonderful and talented The Oberports are? Our families love affair with The Oberports started back in 2012 when Emily and Bobby documented both of my sisters weddings. From my sisters engagement shoots and wedding days, to numerous family photo sessions, they've become the official Liberatore family photographers. So when I got engaged I called them within days to reserve our dates. They were the only option for our wedding. Emily and Bobby met us in Annapolis for our engagement photos and then back to North Beach, Maryland for our wedding a couple weeks ago. They also introduced me to David with Studio213Films who we booked as our videographer. They are responsive, easy going, detail oriented and capture the most amazing moments. They are talented photographers and but also really cool people so it is fun spending time with them. Which is important since you'll spend so much time together. They also have a sense of calm to them which helps you relax in front of the camera. I would forget they are there at times. In the most artistic and beautiful way, they capture your story and special moments. I really can't recommend them enough. They are an amazing team and you won't be disappointed in booking them for your wedding!

Melissa Sent on 10/16/2019Captured our day with perfection!
Emily & Bobby are truly the best in the business! We knew from day 1 of our engagement we wanted to book them . Their work speaks for itself, and they have such an eye for capturing the littlest moments that my husband and I will be so happy too look back on. Professional and responsive to any questions and concerns we had throughout our wedding planning. They send a sneak-peek post occasion as a teaser and believe me it will make you and your family cry like babies. If you want badass engagement photos-they are it, if you want the most beautiful, creative wedding photos that you will be proud to have up in your home and on your coffee table in your wedding album- THEY ARE IT! Book them NOW! You will have the best photographers for the most important day of your life! -

Emily Sent on 04/30/2018WOW! Just WOW! The Oberports are AMAZING. As we were planning a wedding out of state, we live in DC but got married in WV – we had a bit of an unique situation. With our schedules, we were unable to align our engagement shoot with The Oberports. Since we were unable to work with/meet them prior to the wedding date, they were so kind to meet us for drinks over winter break when we were in WV to get to know us, and allow us to feel more comfortable working with them on the actual day. Leading up to the event, they were VERY responsive to all emails and inquiries, and actually hopped on a call to help me finalize the logistical timing for the first look and bridal/family portraits. While were we were getting ready, they both had a calming presence – which is so critical on the morning of an already stressful/exciting day. What I loved the most about them is their ability to see a photo – they can visualize the exact position, the exact lighting, and the final outcome prior to snapping the picture which allows them to get incredible and stunning photos so quickly! We weren’t taking the “same shot” multiple times to get it “just right” because they are so skilled and can get it perfect on the first try. During the actual ceremony and reception, I don’t even remember seeing them on the dance floor or taking any photos – that’s how awesome and skilled they are in capturing shots without being a distraction or intrusive. We had multiple guests comment on how great they were at staying “low key” and how easy to work with they were! When we received our wedding photos, we were speechless. It’s truly magical how they’re able to capture feelings and moments within one still frame. We’ve received so many compliments from friends and family on the photos, and we couldn’t be happier. I would highly recommend The Oberports – choosing them as our photographers was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! -

Kate Sent on 05/10/2018Though I'm based in Cleveland, I knew I wanted this Charleston, WV-based duo for our wedding day. I went to college with the wife half of their husband/wife team, & having them as our wedding photographers was the only thing I knew I wanted for my own wedding. They were definitely a splurge for us, but without even seeing our pictures, we knew they were absolutely worth it.
When our photos came in, they were better than we'd ever dreamed, capturing so many of those little details that really made the day the joyful, full-of-love celebration that it was. You won't get, from the Oberports, tons & tons of posed shots, (unless you specifically request them, I assume) - but you WILL get tons & tons of the details & those real-life moments, the expressions & the smiles & the magic of the actual moments as they happened on your wedding day. Our photos are incredible, & we cherish them beyond all else from that day, second only to our memories themselves. -

Shannon Sent on 12/06/2017The Oberports are top notch at their craft. They were great to work with and gave us so many amazing images of both our engagement and wedding. They were totally flexible on our slightly hap-hazard order of events, helped to coordinate, and even lent me and my bridesmaids sunscreen on our unseasonably hot wedding day. Weddings are stressful and when looking for vendors, you definitely want ones that go the extra mile. The Oberports do that. Emily, Bobby, and their photos were loved by all of our family and friends and, most importantly, my hard-to-please husband. Great people and great service. Highly recommended!

Shelby Sent on 12/06/2017Best my expectations by a million. Our wedding was very casual and the pictures Bobby and Emily took made it seem like a million dollar wedding. I recommend them fully. We had a million different changes during our wedding planning and they were very chill and went along with whatever we wanted to do.
