We’re here to help you every step of the way—making sure everything’s in place so you can fully soak in the joy of your day, without stressing about getting that "perfect shot.

We even have a guide to help you think through all the little details. It covers everything from organizing family formals to building your timeline, plus trusted vendor recommendations.

Inquire

All wedding inquiries start with a "discovery call." Getting to know each and every couple we work with is SO important to us! We want to hear all about both of you and the vision you have. This way, we can ensure that we are the best fit to serve you on your wedding day.

The Engagement

Engagement sessions are a great way for us to meet and get comfortable with each other before the big day!

Plus, they are so much fun! I always encourage couples to make a date night out of it and plan a nice dinner afterward.

Wedding Prep

We check in about three months before the wedding to start discussing timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, and anything else we should know about your big day.

Once that is done, we will hop on a call to finalize your photography timeline!

Albums

If an heirloom album was included in your package, I'll send you a design questionnaire where we can choose the fabric, cover options, and your favorite images.

I'll begin designing the album with your input, and you can expect to receive it at your door within a few months!

Frequently Asked Questions:

We shoot both! Most of the day is captured digitally, but we always love bringing out film when it fits the moment or when a couple requests it. Film has such a unique look — the colors, the softness, the little imperfections that make it feel alive. Even in our digital work, we aim for that same film-inspired aesthetic: rich, true-to-life colors, plenty of dreamy bokeh, and images that feel timeless and honest.

Yes, absolutely! While we’re locally based in the Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill area of North Carolina, we love traveling for weddings. From Virginia to Vermont to Georgia and everywhere in between — just tell us where your celebration is, and we’ll be there. Travel is something we truly enjoy, so we keep it affordable. Don’t let distance hold you back!

We book weddings up to 12 months out, but we love leaving space on our calendar for last-minute plans and spontaneous elopements. Whether you’re planning a year ahead or just a few weeks out, reach out — we’d love to be there to capture your story, exactly as it unfolds.

You can expect your full wedding gallery — filled with all the real, joyful moments of your day — in about 6–8 weeks. But we know how excited you’ll be to see your photos, so within 72 hours we’ll send over a handful of sneak peeks to relive the joy right away.
