Its a once in a lifetime experience!......Make it last forever!

We believe your wedding day is one of the most important experience of a lifetime and you have only once to do it the way you want. Wedding photography is about carefully crafting and capturing the moments of your big day in a way that it tells your love story. Our goal is to capture your wedding day as a refection to who you are naturally----unposed as much as possible.

We are based out of North Carolina, near the coast. While most of our events take place in North and South Carolina, we have passports and love to travel! We only accept a certain number of weddings each year and most couples book us about a year in advance. For more detailed wedding information please complete a wedding application and we will contact you shortly.

Frequently Asked Questions

 
 
 

How Much Will It Cost To Hire You To Work With Us On Our Special Day?

Our most popular package start at $3,200, with tons of options and room for upgrades. All of our packages include different hours of coverage on your wedding day, an online ordering system, an image cd of your edited images, and the personal rights to those images so you can print, share and preserve them for years to come.

 

Will I Get To Know And Connect With My Photographer Before The Wedding Day?

Most Definitely! We are serious about making sure our connection with you is a perfect match for our team. We will focus on getting to know you and your fiancé through the initial consultation. If you’re interested in scheduling a lunch/dinner date, a phone date, or a FaceTime date, let us know, and we’ll make this happen!

 

What’s Your Primary Style? Posed And Formal, Relaxed, Photojournalistic, Creative, Artistic, Candid, Traditional?

A combination of all of them. We understand the importance of classically beautiful photos that you’ll love 50 years from now, but we can’t neglect the importance of fun, different photos that represent of you in your life right now.

 

We Definitely Want To Book You, What Next?

If you haven’t already, complete the wedding application and we will contact you to schedule your wedding consultation with us. To secure the date, you’ll need to complete our wedding application and we will confirm availability in our schedule to book your wedding date.  Then you submit your deposit of $600…Now you have hired us. We will work with you to ensure you get what you want to document your wedding experience the way you want to remember it.

 

I Don’t Know What Package I Want – Can I Add Things On Later?

Yes. If you know that you want to book us, we would recommend going ahead and booking a base package to make sure you secure your date. You can spend some additional time learning about our products and add those on later.

 

I Got Quoted A Package From Another Photographer With Digital Images, A Makeup Artist, A Personal Maid, Prints, An Engagement Session And 15 Hours Of Coverage For $150. Why Do You Charge More?

The difference is in the photo capture, attention to details, time, products and guidance we give to make your day a successful day.  If price is your major concern…Go with the $150 photographer; you may regret it for the rest of your marriage!

 

Can We Give You A Shot list? How Will You Know What We Want?

You can give us a shot list if you have one, and if you don’t, we’ll spend time working with you making sure we’ve gone over all of the shots that are important to you, and guiding you through this process. Most of the time brides just want to organize a specific shot list for family photos, and then they let their photographer do their thing for all of the creative shots. However, if you have ideas for the creative stuff, we are open to what you want.

 

What Kind Of Equipment Do You Use?

All of our photographers use top-of-the-line, professional grade equipment.

 

What If Our Reception Lasts Longer Than The Amount Of Time We Paid For?

We get this question quite a bit. No worries about the time. You can extend your time by requesting additional hours.

 

What’s The Difference In Prints I Would Buy From You Vs. Prints I Would Do Myself? 

Great question! Prints that you order from us are professional grade – they are printed on the highest quality paper using archival inks, which basically means they are printed to last a long, long time. Photos that you get printed on your own will still be beautiful, they’ll just look different than our professional prints 50 years down the line.  There are several things you must consider when printing photos that local and online photo retailer won’t tell you----so let professionals do it for you; that’s what you’ve hired them for.

 

How Long Does It Take Before I Can View My Photos?

We make sure that we’re spending time editing your images to make them look spectacular, but we also know you want your photos back so you can post them online! That being said, you’ll receive engagement/bridal photos within one week after your session date. Wedding pictures are posted in your private online gallery within 2 weeks after your wedding date.
