I have always been fascinated by the way a photo could capture a feeling. During my teenage years, on beautiful sunny days, I would often drive all over the back roads of Johnston County after school, stopping along the way to take photos of scenery that really spoke to my soul. Even though my equipment was a crappy digital camera and the editing of the photos afterward was altered beyond any natural tone with "picnik" filters, I can still look back on those images and remember how it felt to be young, wild and free.
Fast forward to 2016 when I bought my first DSLR camera - I did that very same thing - I stopped on some old back road on the way home to photograph an old tobacco barn in the middle of a field with the sun setting through the leaves of a huge old oak tree. Needless to say, my passion for capturing a moment before it slips away was reignited!
A couple of years ago, I roped my [super artistic] husband into second shooting a wedding with me and he's been hooked ever since! We know how important your wedding day is, which is why it is our mission to collect memories through the lenses of our cameras so you can relive the emotions and sentiments of that day for years to come. We're based in North Carolina, but we're always up for traveling so if you're interested in booking us, get in touch and we'll get this show on the road!
