  • Serves Southern Shores, NC

Hello, I am a hybrid (analog & digital) wedding photographer based in Eastern North Carolina, and I enjoy traveling regularly across the state, throughout the country, and internationally. My ethos is to be an unobtrusive observer, documenting the genuine, unscripted moments of your day as they naturally unfold. I believe the most beautiful photographs aren't the ones that are posed, but the quiet, fleeting glances and heartfelt laughter shared between you and your loved ones. Hope to connect soon!

Allie Miller Photography was absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Allie's communication was outstanding - she answered all of our questions instantly and made us feel so comfortable and at ease. Her work is truly top-notch and exceeded all of our expectations. On the day of the wedding, Allie went above and beyond, capturing not only all the planned photos but also some beautiful, unplanned moments that we will cherish forever. Allie is simply the best, and as a good friend, she was always there to lend a helping hand and make our special day even more perfect. We cannot recommend Allie Miller Photography highly enough!

Courtney Hathaway Photography

  • Serves Southern Shores, NC

Born and raised on North Carolina’s Outer Banks, I’ve been capturing love stories for over 18 years. Married to my high school sweetheart and raising our two boys on this little sandbar we call home, I’m inspired by family, connection, and the coast. I create images that feel modern yet timeless - blending classic elegance with natural, editorial moments. OBX based, serving couples on the Outer Banks and beyond, with winters spent in Costa Rica. Let’s tell your story.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

Ellen LeRoy Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Southern Shores, NC

When I started wedding photography 15 years ago, I wanted to create stunning pictures that showed off my technical skills. Those skills are helpful, but they are no longer the focus of my attention. You are. Now, my goal is to make sure you have the best wedding possible, and that you remember as many moments and details as possible. You may think you'll remember it all, but life moves on and you'll forget more than you expect. I'm here to remind you what your wedding day was like, how much you love your family and friends, and why you got married. I'm excited to help you have a wonderful wedding full of beautifully captured moments.

Ellen photographed my wedding and two separate engagement sessions. This stated, there is nothing more I can say than if I ever have a need for a photographer again, I'd hire her every single time! Her ability to get the perfect shot in every situation is simply amazing. Further, whether she had to take her shoes off and stand knee-deep in water, or provide firm (yet friendly) directions to friends and family after the ceremony (to get all our pictures done in time), she was as competent, kind, and professional as any photographer I've ever seen. I understand how hard it is to trust one person with capturing the most important moments of your life, but Ellen did not disappoint!

I created my signature style by blending lifestyle photography and fine art image retouching. Being a desperate romantic, I devote a huge part of my photography journey to the wedding and engegment photography. My goal is to create your family heirlooms, the images that you will cherish forever!

Maria is an incredibly talented photographer. We used her for our engagement photos and wedding, and have received so many compliments. Her style is bold and classic. She is great with angles and captures both posed and candid shots. Unfortunately we had rain on our wedding day, but Maria had a nice clear umbrella handy and we were able to still get photos of us during the rain. They are some of my favorites of our album. She dealt with my husband (who doesn’t like getting photos done) and multiple guest requests with ease and delivered our sneak peeks in just 2 days.

OLAS were the easiest vendor I worked with throughout the wedding process. Their quick and efficient communication gave me the peace of mind I needed when it came to wedding photos. I had a very specific vision for our imagery, and OLAS and our photographer were more than accommodating as I neurotically guided some photos. Our photographer came equipped with a great attitude and even better skills in capturing our day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photography experience.

She did such a stunning job with our engagement and wedding photos, we have received so many compliments on them! She got so many beautiful candids too.

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price! Booking Heather and her team was truly the best decision we could have made. I recommend them to anyone from all walks of life. You will be welcomed and taken care of like a friend or even family!

I can't say enough good things about Alina and her husband! They were so in tuned to us and our requests as a couple. I was able to share some must have pictures for my engagement session with her and she made them ALL happen. She took us on a mini adventure in downtown Miami and we had the absolute best time! We were able to shoot in 3 different locations thanks to the help of her husband driving laps around the area and us shooting and hopping into the "getaway" car. She developed the pictures SOOOOO fast! We were able to have sneak peaks the very next day! Her and her husband have been married for many years and are a great testament to how a happy and healthy marriage looks like. Alina is so personable, kind and easy to talk to as well. She feels like a friend and I am so excited to have her be a part of my wedding day! The attention to detail and the personal love and care that she has shown us has honestly made her my absolute favorite vendor so far. She is everything that I could have possibly wanted in a wedding photographer and more! She is a MUST HAVE photographer and we will be recommending her to anyone who may need one in the future.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

As one of the bridesmaids, I was blown away by how attentive they were. They made sure to capture all the silly little moments we had while getting ready. The photos show our genuine laughter and all the excitement of the morning. The video even had clips of us helping the bride with her dress and it made me cry when I saw it. They were super patient with our group (we can be chatty and distracted) but still kept everything moving smoothly. I love that they treated the bridal party as important, not just background. Everything feels authentic, not forced. I’m so glad my best friend will have these memories forever.

We booked Carson for our 2026 wedding and I can say, she was the best choice we could've made for our wedding photography. From the very first call, she was incredibly informative, quick to respond to our questions, and provided helpful suggestions that made the planning process smooth. We've only had our engagement photo session so far but she captured some of the most beautiful shots and exceeded our expectations. Carson is incredibly communicative and easy to connect with. The quality of her work truly has a "WOW" factor that makes me keep looking at our photos over and over again.

Grace was a pleasure to work with during the wedding planning process. She was timely in her responses and upfront with pricing. On the day of the wedding, it felt like we were herding cats, but she remained professional and efficient. Even though we were running behind schedule with getting dressed, she managed to squeeze in a few dress shots and some first look photos. Grace remained patient even as some of our friends and family showed up late for photos! As we moved between locations, she made sure I was holding my dress in a way so that I wouldn’t fall on my face. She also helped my MOH bustle my dress after the ceremony (again, so I wouldn’t fall on my face). Grace was always cognizant of the lighting on location, and how it would affect photos. Her assistant, Joey, was lovely and accommodating as well. All in all, a wonderful experience!

Within a year of our wedding, our original photographer canceled, and I felt nothing but panic and sadness at having to start the search all over again. When I came across Felisha’s portfolio, it felt like fate. Her work was exactly what I had been envisioning from the start of wedding planning—and more. I reached out on a whim, fully expecting her to be booked, but by all the luck in the world she wasn’t and it was meant to be! From our very first call, Felisha instantly put me at ease. She felt like a friend—warm, kind, understanding, and genuinely willing to listen. Every ounce of worry disappeared, and instead, she added to the excitement of getting married. On our wedding day it was just easy and fun, it felt like a friend was capturing our day. Not only is her photography absolutely breathtaking, but the person behind the camera is equally as remarkable. I would relive our wedding day 100 times over with Felisha by our side. I’m beyond grateful for the memories she captured and gosh are they stunning! I cannot wait for future life moments to bring us together again, she is stuck with us for life if she’ll have us!

It's hard to describe in words what it means to have your perfect wedding day captured forever. The amount of passion and enthusiasm that Jennifer and her team brought to our wedding was unmatched! We are so happy we chose Stewart and Barnes! Also full disclosure their work does take around 1.5 months to get back but it is totally and completely worth it. Trust their process and BE PATIENT, they will not disappoint! Love you Jennifer!
