Your wedding is an expression of who you are as a couple,<\/h1>\n

and chances are you\u2019re planning a celebration that\u2019s a little unconventional. Your wedding won\u2019t be traditional \u2013 why should your wedding photography? I’m a North Carolina wedding photographer whose passion is to help you break free from the mainstream, reject the mediocre. SO that you can really, honestly, be true to yourself.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re planning a casual hoopla at the Durham farmer’s market or a week-long Indian fusion wedding with enough guests to fill downtown Raleigh, you’ve come to the right place!<\/h3>\n

I’m an award-winning North Carolina wedding photographer with an artistic documentary style. Just like you, I’m tired of the same old cookie-cutter shots that feel forced and unnatural. (Like the sappy couple pose that could slay a 90’s rom-com, the wedding party that seems to have turned into statues, the dreaded prom pose).<\/p>\n

As your wedding photographer, I’ll capture the spontaneous, authentic moments that really matter.<\/h3>\n

Like when the ceremony has to stop because you’re both laughing too hard. Or when your partner cries after they swore they wouldn’t.<\/p>\n

Like when your sister grabs your boob during a family portrait. Or at the end of the night when the dance floor is super sticky with beer, but nobody cares because the music is too good.<\/p>\n

When you look back on your wedding photos for years to come, you’ll truly be able to relive the day \u2013 with all its mountain-top moments, quirky details, and unexpected turns.<\/p>\n

Take a look at my favorite photographs from my 10 years working as a North Carolina wedding photographer:<\/h1>\n
