Lee is absolutely phenomenal! We had a bit of a rowdy wedding party, he handled them like it was no big deal and managed to get so many exceptional photos. His style and artistic vision far surpassed what I could have ever wanted for our engagement and wedding photos. We had countless guests tell us how kind he was and how he agreed to take a photo when asked. I was speechless when I first saw our wedding photos and he was so quick to get them to us. Do yourselves a favor, invest in the best photographer for your wedding, you won't regret it! -

We were absolutely thrilled with Lee Everett's ability to capture not just photos but feelings and moments. From the first call, it was clear that he had a unique talent for seeing beyond the surface and capturing the unique things that made our relationship so special. Lee paid incredible attention to the little things, ensuring that every important element of our relationship and wedding day was documented. He even captured moments we didn’t realize were important to us until we saw them through his lens.
Throughout the entire process, Lee was more than just our photographer—he was a dedicated and supportive presence. He was always available to us during the preparation, offering his expertise and guidance whenever we needed it. His consistent communication leading up to the big day gave us a sense of reassurance and confidence that everything would be perfectly captured.
One of the best parts of working with Lee was his commitment to understanding and prioritizing our desires. He took the time to get to know us, learning what we valued most and what we envisioned for our wedding day. This attention to detail and genuine care for our wishes played an invaluable role in making my dream of an outdoor wedding come true, despite the weather. When the opportunity for a last-minute shift to an outdoor ceremony arose, Lee stepped up to make it happen. He even coordinated with the entire vendor team to ensure everything transitioned smoothly, which was above and beyond his role as a photographer. His proactive approach and dedication to our vision is something we will never forget. The day would literally not have been the same without him.
The photos we have received so far are nothing short of stunning. They perfectly encapsulate the joy, love, and magic of our wedding day. Lee's flawless documentation allows us to relive those moments again and again, bringing back the emotions we felt on our perfect day. We cannot wait to see the rest of the photos and know that they will be just as breathtaking.
Lee Everett exceeded our expectations in every way. His artistic talent, combined with his genuine care for his clients, made our wedding day truly unforgettable. We are forever grateful for his extraordinary work and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a photographer who goes above and beyond to capture their wedding or any other special moments! -

Olsen Wedding 5/25/24
Lee and his team are an absolute blessing to have on your wedding day. I found them through the Knot.com. I instatntly fell in love with his style of photography. Not only that but when we were first looking for photographers Lee called me and we spike for an hour and a half about expectations and whay kind of wedding etc. No other photographer i looked at did this, I really appreciated the time he took out of his day to spend talking to us. Fast forward to wedding day Lee and his team made us super comfortable and helped to make our wedding magical. Lee is so easy to work with and definitely knows how to get shy couples out of their comfort zone. Lee not only helped capture our wedding but also us as a couple with an engagement shoot as well. I have never felt so comfortable around a photographer before.
Not only is he amazing to work with but his work is equally as amazing. I absolutely love every single one of my pictures and cannot pick a favorite. Not only are the pictures amazing we got our sneak peeks back the same day! It wasn't just 1 or 2 pictures either it was an entire album. That was an absolutely amazing surprise to wake up to the next morning.
I would recommend Alchemist Weddings for any event you may have! We will definitely be using him for photos in the future.
Much thanks and gratitude,
Claire and Bobby Olsen -

Picking out a photographer felt super daunting in the beginning, but as met Lee we knew it was a perfect match. We just had our engagement photos, and I was BLOWN away by all the little moments he was able to capture. We wanted to find someone that would blend perfectly with our style and fit right in on our wedding day. It's evident in his work how personal it is for him and how much he truly cares about his clients' experience. I know he’s only ever a quick text or call away. We've had quite a few changes in locations and dates, and he’s been so flexible and helpful throughout.
We were obsessed with the engagement photos he took. The day of the photos, it just so happened to start raining as we were parking to meet up with Lee. He came prepared with two clear umbrellas and was pumped for the shoot regardless of the rain. He immediately put my nerves at rest. We ended up with over 200 photos in less than two weeks. I couldn't believe all the stunning photos I had to choose from. Not to mention, we had the best time scouting the Lake Lure area during our time. It was the best little adventure. We can’t wait to have Lee meet our two little ones for our family photos next. Our wedding day is about six months away, and there’s still so much to plan. But I’m so happy we found Lee, and I’m so excited to see all the moments he has yet to capture. Highly recommend! -

Lee did an AMAZING job capturing everyone at my wedding. There are pictures of family members that I will cherish forever. It was a smooth and easy process. Lee also worked to fit me in when I was having a photographer crisis! Not only did he give me a listening ear, but he was able to get to know my husband and I on a more personal level. He made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire session. I was beyond pleased with the final results and cannot wait to get them printed and framed!! Thank you for making my special day last forever. -

Perfect and well captured!
I had a very non traditional wedding and aesthetic, and Lee captured every moment perfectly! The guest seemed to have fun getting their photos taken and we are so happy to have so many great photos of our best day. Professionalism at its finest! -

Anniversary Pictures
Lee shot anniversary pictures for my partner and I and he was very aware of our surroundings and made it a priority to ensure we were comfortable in front of the camera. Was a very enjoyable experience for us with positive vibes. -

We are beyond pleased with Lee’s work for our wedding day at the Biltmore Estate and our engagement pictures at Looking Glass falls, the pictures are beautiful and we will cherish them forever.
We were in the hunt for a photographer that was able to work independently as we wanted to rely on their creative eye so we could focus on our guests and enjoying our time at our ceremony and reception. Lee was fantastic to work with since the beginning, he was always able to answer any and all questions via text or a phone call. We were able to speak with him on several occasions to plan our vision.
We first met him for our engagement pictures and we didn’t have a clear idea of where we could take pictures since we are from Miami and not familiar with the Asheville area, Lee was great at providing a magnificent backdrop for our shoot, and although the weather at the fall was at times uncomfortable Lee was still able to capture amazing shots that we were delighted with.
For our big day we had to adhere to the many rules and limitations at the Biltmore Estate and Lee was able to pivot to make our first look pictures happen, we were able to enjoy our reception with the assurance he would know what to capture and when and we were satisfied with the end result. The turnabout time was also very reasonable and we had the final pictures before we got back from our honeymoon.
We would recommend Lee and his team without reservations, and I commend him for his artistic eye and ability to create a wonderful product while also taking into consideration our vision and ideas. -

Lee has an eye for capturing beautiful romantic images. We used him for our wedding and the entire process from beginning to end was so comforting and easy. Lee felt like family, from getting to know what was important to us to capturing images that we get to keep for a lifetime. We will definitely be using his services again! Also he got us our photos back 3 DAYS after the wedding!!!!! -

Lee is a fantastic wedding photographer. The communication and punctuality from day 1 of hiring Lee, all the way up to the communication and punctuality days before/day-of the wedding, was excellent. He is very personable and wants nothing more than to provide his absolute best work and fulfill any and all of the couple's dream photos. He is very patient with the chaos that comes with the wedding day, and he worked so well alongside the videographer that I hired. They ended up making a wonderful duo to capture my wedding day!
Waiting on the sneak peak photos took a little bit longer than anticipated, but WOW the photos are phenomenal once you get them! I only have the sneak peak pics so far, but the photography is unmatched. The photos captured are so unique, and I absolutely love his style of wedding photography. I cannot WAIT to get alllllll of the photos from the wedding! -

Hire him or you will regret it
It needs to be known that this is literally one of the most talented and emotionally dedicated photographers out there. From my experience, my best advice when planning a wedding is to put most of your budget on your venue and your photographer. The best thing about Lee is you will get A+++++ captured moments and edited pictures while not breaking your budget. This man not only knew what I wanted without telling him, but also gave me the direction to get the pictures I didn’t even think were possible. The best part of all of it, is Lee became apart of the party and my family and friends loved him. I would have it no other way but to have him as our photographer for all special and memorial events moving forward. Thank you Lee, you are incredibly talented and an amazing person inside and out. Thank you from the Huffman’s. -
