We used Cait for our wedding ceremony and reception in September. We had such a wonderful experience with her! From working with me before the wedding to pre plan and prepare to then “winging it” with me the actual day of the wedding- as NOTHING went as planned the day of despite months of preparation! She was so encouraging, supportive, as well as professional. Her knowledge and experience in weddings was a huge plus and extremely helpful. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and will always have a place in the heart of myself and my husband for going above and beyond at our wedding and reception. Her photos were amazing and helped capture the beautiful moments of our day- the formal and the candid so we can remember these good times always… while recalling all the stories of how it all went ‘not as planned’! From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for your services and for being the wonderful person you are.

Currently booking for 2026 & 2027 I've been photographing weddings & couples for 11+ years and couldn't imagine doing anything else! Wedding Photographer 🏳️‍🌈 For ALL couples. Based in Raleigh, NC, and am always available for travel within the US.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiancé (now husband) found Casie for us during the wedding planning process, and I immediately fell in love with her work! Her darker style was exactly what I was looking for and her wedding engagement package is extremely well priced. Working with her felt like meeting up with an old friend. I was very worried about how I would feel about posing and if I would look awkward and she did such an amazing job directing me in a way that felt natural. I have not received a picture from her that I do not like. Casie also made the planning process so easy. She even met with me over facetime to address some anxiety I was having regarding the timeline. I ended up adding 2 hours to the photography package (again, very reasonably priced). Overall, I genuinely have nothing bad to say about Casie and her work. She is a joy to work with, her work is incredible, and she is such a fun person to be around!

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

Awarded Best of Zola
Allyse and Nick are two of the most stellar people I know, and they have come together to create the perfect business: a husband and wife team capturing moments forever. If anyone knows true love, it's them, and let alone getting the most epic photo, it's also them. Allyse and Nick are professionals who take stunning pictures in any season and setting! They are masters of lighting and finding the perfect moment. I have known them both for many years and have watched them grow in their photo careers and then move into creating their wedding photo business. They have photographed many friends' weddings and friends of friends, never to disappoint! Allyse has always had the gift of capturing the right moment, whether in her work overseas, photojournalism, or later in weddings, and she never ceased to amaze me or anyone I know. Her photos have always been so powerful, and her reputation shows it. Nick's creative and whimsical photos matched her style, and when they met, they grew further together, making them the talent powerhouse they are today. Nick and Allyse are the team to hire if you want your typical and not-so-typical photos. They are fun and witty artists with cameras! They will capture all of the fairy tale moments, the getting ready shots, and the memory photos you will treasure forever, but they will also create the laughs that make the photos you never even thought of happening! Their style and approach of helping you through those beautiful yet stressful hours that lead up to the big moment with humor and charm is also why you will love them! These are the moments where they will get the best photos of you, your family, and then of you and your one and only. They both have the clever eye to capture the moments that later, upon looking at the pictures, you will think, WOW, how did they get that? Allyse and Nick are the team you want to capture your wedding if not for their charm and talent but their ability to quickly make a stressful day flow while capturing the best moments you will cherish forever.

If you’re looking for a photographer who also hypes you up to make the process more fun, look no further! Can’t recommend her enough!

From start to finish, JayDee and his team at Pluvia Studios were nothing short of exceptional! JayDee's attentive and thorough communication made navigating my sister's wedding preparations an absolute breeze. On the big day, he ensured our entire group felt completely relaxed and genuinely at ease, a testament to his clear vision and the team's seamless execution. The moment we received the notification that our photos and videos were ready, our excitement was palpable. Viewing them filled us with tears of joy and overwhelming love, as each beautifully captured memory transported us right back to the wedding day.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

From our first conversation to the final gallery, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen, cared for, and completely at ease. I take time to understand your story — the emotions, the details, the quiet moments in between — so every photograph reflects the truth of who you are. With a balance of editorial direction and effortless authenticity, I capture your day as it unfolds, blending timeless artistry with genuine emotion. More than just beautiful images, this is about preserving the heart behind them — your love, your faith, your legacy.

We found Katie on Instagram and instantly fell in love with her work. She photographed our engagement session, my bridal portraits, and our wedding day — and every single experience with her was incredible. From the very first session, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, like we were just hanging out with a new friend! She went above and beyond, not only capturing the most stunning photos but also helping with our wedding timeline and answering all the (many!) questions I had along the way. Her guidance and support made such a difference in the whole planning process. We are absolutely in LOVE with every single photo she’s taken for us, and we’re still getting endless compliments; not just on the pictures themselves, but from guests and other vendors who raved about how amazing she was to work with. I truly cannot recommend Katie enough. She’s incredibly talented, so much fun to be around, and now has customers for life in us!
