Sutton Photography Studio 
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves New Bern, NC

My photography journey began as a teenager with a tiny Le Clic 110 camera & hounding my parents for film money. Years later, my husband gifted me my first DSLR, a Canon EOS Rebel T2i, and turned into my passion. That camera traveled with me to Rome, where I truly fell in love with capturing the world through my lens. I later earned my associate’s degree in Photographic Technology, graduating with honors in 2012. Over the years I’ve photographed everything from newborns to rock bands, even doing freelance work for RockstarCulture. These days, I focus closer to home, telling real stories through authentic moments of laughter, tears, and joy.

The quality of their work was truly one-of-a-kind - their photos are gorgeous, superb, innovative, and incredibly detail-oriented and precise. The team of two photographers and a videographer was amazing, capturing so many special moments that will forever stay with us from our wedding day. We were especially grateful that they were able to capture our private final dance, which means the world to us. After our wedding, when our oldest son was leaving for bootcamp, Sean thoughtfully sent us additional photos that had been taken during the celebration, which are now cherished keepsakes for our family. I honestly can't say enough good things about our experience with Portraits By Sean - they exceeded our expectations in every way and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories they've preserved for us.”

“The photographer, Jonathan, and his assistant, were absolutely amazing. They arrived early, were flexible and really accommodating to our vision. They also really hustled! They took advantage of every spare moment they had to get additional photos, and kept us on schedule super tightly. They even carried around things like bottles of water for me (the bride) as we took lots of photos in the hot upper floor of the venue. Many guests also mentioned how beautifully the photos turned out. However, we did have an issue in which, due to an injury to the editor's hand, we did not receive our photos in the agreed-upon timeframe. Had we been informed of this delay ahead of time, we would not have had any issue just waiting a bit longer. The main concern was that we weren't alerted of this delay until after the initial deadline had passed. We did request a discount due to this, which they accommodated. And the photos did still turn out amazing!”

I'm Levar, an Air Force veteran who spent years running weddings from the inside before picking up a camera. 500+ weddings later, I capture candid, unstaged moments across the Carolinas and travel for destination weddings. Backyard vows or black tie ballroom, same approach: I read the room, keep the day moving, and stay out of your way. Grooms get their moments too. Want to see how I'd tell yours?

From our first conversation, he made himself available and easy to reach whenever we had questions or concerns. On our wedding day, Levar knew exactly how to position us for each shot and had an eye for those candid moments that show what the day was really about. He was patient with us and our guests, taking his time to get the details right. The photos turned out beautifully and captured everything we hoped for.

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!”

Hey, I'm Bri, a wedding and couples photographer based in Wilmington, NC, shooting all over the East Coast and beyond. I work in digital and film, mixing in 35mm, medium format, Polaroids, and Super 8 depending on your day. I'm not chasing posed shots. I'm after the real moments, the ones that happen in between, because that's where the honest emotion lives. My own wedding taught me exactly what I didn't want in a photographer, and it's shaped how I show up for every couple since. I pay attention, stay close but out of the way, and I'd love to hear about your day.

“If you want to turn your big day into literal fine art, that you can look back on without trend, in years to come. Look no further.

“Barry Daley was not just our wedding photographer; he was the life of the party! His vibrant energy and enthusiasm brought so much joy to our special day. From the moment he arrived, Barry blended seamlessly with our guests, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease. His infectious smile and engaging personality encouraged even our most camera-shy relatives to participate in the photo sessions. The way he interacted with the crowd, capturing candid moments and genuine laughter, was truly remarkable. Barry's presence added a delightful spark to our celebration, making the experience memorable for us and our guests. The photographs he delivered were equally impressive, filled with life and capturing the essence of our joyous occasion. We couldn't have asked for a more charismatic and talented photographer to document our wedding day.”

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

“We were recently married in June and had McKenna as our photographer and absolutely LOVED her work!! First off, communication was so easy throughout the whole process. She was so sweet and accommodating to everything. We did our engagement photos with her and she drove all the way from Charlotte to Duke! Leading up to the wedding, we had a few phone calls to plan logistics and she was so organized it make the whole process so easy! On the wedding day I didn’t have to worry about anything photo related. She made sure to capture every moment we wanted without putting any added stress on us. 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!”

Hey there! I’m Sydney — a mother, creative, coffee lover, and passionate storyteller behind the lens. I serve couples with a creative, emotive, documentary-driven approach to wedding photography. I specialize in capturing real connection, genuine emotion, and the unfiltered magic of your day. My work leans into natural light, mood, and atmosphere and isn’t overly posed or traditional — it’s artistic, organic, and meant to feel timeless. I love walking with couples from engagement sessions to the final send-off, helping them feel at ease and truly present.

“We're so happy with how our wedding pictures turned out! Sydney and her second shooter captured so many beautiful moments, and we've had so much fun looking through them and sharing them with our family. She was very communicative throughout the whole process - from booking to the engagement shoot to the wedding day itself. She made sure to get every picture that we requested and in the style that we communicated. Can't recommend her enough!!!”
