I am so very honored that you are considering me to be apart of your speical day. Choosing a wedding photographer can be one of the most important decisions you’ll make in planning your wedding. This is your Day the day you have been dreaming about your entire life. Thats why I believe that choosing a wedding photographer is about more than just hiring someone with a camera to document your day. Your wedding photographer should be someone who makes you feel comfortable, someone who eases the craziness of a wedding day, and maybe, someone who eventually becomes a friend.

“Shannon S Clark Photography was the perfect choice for capturing our wedding day. From our very first interaction, Shannon's communication style was quick, intentional, and efficient - qualities that continued throughout our entire experience working with her. The quality of her work is simply exquisite, showcasing her immense talent and seasoned expertise. Shannon went out of her way to make sure everything was captured, even taking the time to learn the best locations to photograph within the Catholic church where our ceremony was held. She is genuinely passionate about ensuring your day is beautiful, seamless, and effortless, going above and beyond for her clients. We are thrilled with the stunning photos that perfectly preserve the memories of our special day.”

I am a self-help junkie and am always in pursuit of my best me. I love people and love making genuine connections and new friendships.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Are all brides that anxious on their wedding day? I certainly was! In addition to “typical wedding jitters” my dress hadn’t come back perfect from the seamstress… I was a wreck. I worried about how the photos would come out even with the best photographer. Andrea was amazing. Most of the time I didn’t know she was there. She got the best and most candid shots without any distraction (she must be part ninja). Andrea also got all of the wedding shots I’d requested through communication before the wedding and also had fun ideas that I wouldn’t have thought of. I received my photos within weeks of the wedding and I was amazed at how beautiful they turned out! The photos tell a story of a beautiful day and don’t even show a hint of the worries I had behind the scenes. I would recommend Andrea Coon photography without any reservation!”

Born and raised in Southern California, I was always surrounded by vibrant culture. After moving to North Carolina, I brought my passion for photography with me, turning it into a career that has now spanned over seven years. Through the years, I’ve had the privilege of capturing countless moments, but I truly fell in love with photographing weddings and portraits. Weddings allow me to document love stories in their purest form, portraits give me the chance to highlight individuality and emotion. Photography isn’t just a job for me, it’s my way of preserving memories and telling stories that last a lifetime.

Love has a way of surprising us. I know this from experience. My husband and I married, divorced, and then found our way back to each other seven years later. That journey taught me something profound: when love is real, it doesn’t follow rules. It evolves. It deepens. It returns. That’s the kind of love I photograph—the kind that chooses each other, again and again. That’s why I do what I do. Weddings aren’t just a beautiful day, they’re your story. The in-between moments, the laughter, the tears, the glances no one else notices--those are the moments I live to capture.

Awarded Best of Zola
“When my wife and I found Molly’s name and examples of her work online amongst other photographers in our area, something special about her style and her eye really caught our attention. Little did we know at that time how wonderful of a person she was as well. We first asked Molly to help us shoot an intimate elopement in a local park and were blown away by her ability to capture the whole afternoon so well for us and how comfortable it was having her there. We didn’t think twice when it came to finding a photographer for a wedding reception/celebration one year later. We were thrilled to have her with us again and within days of the event, we were sent a beautifully organized series of albums full of wonderfully captured memories. All edited to perfection. We can’t thank Molly enough and will be hiring her for events as long as she’ll stick around!”

“I don't even know where to begin - Dani is simply amazing and if it were possible to give her a 10 star rating, I would. She not only captured my husband and I's intimate mountain top elopement, but her and Jed also followed us through out the rest of the day and photographed our reception that we held with family and friends. We are usually pretty awkward in front of the camera, but they made us feel so comfortable (even at 5am in the morning lol) and our photos prove it. Dani puts so much work into finding the perfect elopement locations and the most flattering lighting. My husband and I are BEYOND ecstatic with how our photos turned out - she captured who we truly are and how much love we have for each other. I can never thank them enough for how much work they put into our elopement and reception day. We are so happy to have these memories forever.”

I’m a mother to an adventurous little boy, a personable little girl, and wife to an amazing man! Loving these three in my life started my venture in stumbling across photography. I’ve always been fascinated by it, and found myself studying it in many forms. It didn’t take long to realize this profession would allow me to be myself: passionate, fun, and bold! I came to a crossroad after my son was born of whether I should return to work or pursue my passion with photography. Let’s just say I took a jump and went into business around 2012. It’s been a daring journey with the most awesome clients ever!

“Meg did our wedding and engagement photos in 2024 and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out! (I’m just delayed in getting this review up). She was delightful and easy to work with and communicated well throughout the process (timelines, what to expect, what she needed from us). The photos themselves turned out amazing! We were both nervous about posing/feeling awkward but Meg put us at ease and gave the perfect amount of instruction. She embraced our vision/personalities but also helped guide us to some really fun and creative shots.”

“Working with OK Studio was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Their team stayed in touch with us regularly leading up to the wedding, which made planning feel easy and stress-free. On the day itself, they were constantly moving around capturing shots—never sitting back or missing a moment. Every photo is crisp and well-composed, and we loved how they anticipated the moments we cared about most and made sure we had them all. Their attention to detail really showed in the final images, and the whole process felt professional yet approachable. We'd absolutely recommend OK Studio to any couple looking for photographers who genuinely care about getting it right.”

I absolutely love documenting love — the laughter, the quiet moments, and everything in between! Getting to know my couples is one of my favorite parts of what I do. I’m easy-going, laid-back, and always focused on making sure your experience feels natural and completely you.

“Karen Boles Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication style was prompt, open and honest, and tactful. The quality of their work and overall value was exceptional - they were accurate, collaborative, and adaptive, delivering truly beautiful photos that captured all the special moments of our big day. Karen made sure to include everyone in our photos, even the siblings we had on FaceTime, and those images came out wonderfully. Karen is a powerhouse both as a photographer and a businesswoman - she was fully committed, staying in constant communication with us about every detail to give us peace of mind. What truly stood out was how much Karen cared about our photos; it wasn't just a job for her, she cared about our big day as much as we did. I can't recommend Karen Boles Photography enough - if you want to invest in a photographer who truly cares, it's them.”
