Hi, I’m Marissa! An award winning, wedding photographer serving the East Coast and state of N.C. Local to the Topsail Beach area.

My style is natural, true color toned, with a touch of documentary and a hint of light. I’m always striving to capture the candid moments and emotional connections that make a wedding day so special. I'm excited to work with couples who value timeless, authentic, and heartfelt photography that create memories that will last them a lifetime.

  • Serves Swansboro, NC

I’m Olivia, a coastal North Carolina photographer specializing in weddings, motherhood, and the in-between moments that matter most. My approach is simple, I don’t just pose you, I document you. The quiet touches, the laughter, the way your day actually felt. Your wedding isn’t just a timeline to me, it’s a story. As a mom myself, I’ve learned how quickly moments pass, and that’s what drives my work. I’m here to create images that bring you right back to how it all felt, years down the road. If you’re looking for someone who will make you feel comfortable, seen, and genuinely cared for on your wedding day… you’re in the right place.

I cannot say enough amazing things about working with Olivia for our wedding day! From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable and genuinely cared about bringing our vision to life. She has such a calming, fun presence that made the entire experience feel effortless—even for two people who aren’t used to being in front of the camera. On the wedding day, she went above and beyond. She captured every little detail, every emotion, and all the in-between moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the entire day all over again. Her editing style is absolutely stunning…light with a touch of warm tones, romantic, and timeless without feeling overdone. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she’s also organized, responsive, and truly passionate about what she does. We’ve had so many compliments on our photos, and we will cherish them forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who will hype you up, make you feel beautiful, and deliver a gallery you’re obsessed with—Olivia is your girl!!!

Hi, I’m Mama Rae, and I have a passion for capturing genuine stories through my lens. Whether it’s candid moments, lifestyle shots, or posed portraits, I ensure each memory is beautifully preserved.

Rebecca Madvig Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $1,900
  • Serves Swansboro, NC

I’m a veteran wife and mama of 3, with a passion for documenting love stories. I picked up my first camera at 11 years old and have kept learning since. With my years of experience in wedding photography I give couples timeless, heirloom moments to look back on for years. I’m a believer and try my best to honor God in all that I do with the talent and business he has blessed me with.

Rebecca has been our photographer 3 times now and I’m not sure how we can go with anyone else at this point. She knows our quirks, how to call me out for my terrible fake smile, and doesn’t stop until she gets the shots she knows we’re going to want. Seeing how excited she gets about finding the perfect light or backdrop just further confirms we picked the right one. She is truly an artist and it’s a joy to watch her at work while also being the subject. Whether you’re shy in front of the camera or not, she’s going to make sure you have the best time and helps guide you to make timeless memories. She blew us away off the bat with our engagement photos; gave me the most fun, confidence-boosting bridal boudoir session; and then absolutely rocked our worlds covering our wedding. Hire her!! You won’t be disappointed

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Brayley. From start to finish, she was hands down one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. I originally found her on Instagram and immediately fell in love with her work. From our very first consultation, I knew I wanted her as our photographer. She was so incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, and intentional with the questions she asked. She genuinely wanted to get to know us and make sure our personalities, vision, and overall vibe were a good fit for her photography style — and that level of care continued through the entire process. Once we booked her, she made everything SO easy. She checked in with us throughout the planning process, sent update emails, always offered to help however she could, and gave us the most detailed resources to prepare for the wedding day. She had checklists for detail photos, preference sheets, planning documents — seriously, everything you could possibly think of. I never once felt like I had to wonder what she needed from me because she had already thought of it. And then came the wedding day… Brayley was absolutely INCREDIBLE. We only booked her without a second photographer, and somehow she managed to capture our entire night so perfectly. She was everywhere without ever feeling intrusive. She never made us feel rushed or stressed, even when we were running a little behind while getting ready. She rolled with everything, kept things moving, and somehow even managed to wrangle all of the boys and get every group photo we wanted. What I loved most, though, was how much I trusted her creatively. We gave her the freedom to do what she does best, and she gave us photos that are more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She captured the big moments, the tiny moments, the emotions, the people we love, and so many little pieces of our wedding that I didn’t even realize were happening at the time. Looking through our gallery genuinely feels like reliving our wedding night. I tear up EVERY SINGLE TIME I look through our photos. She didn’t just give us beautiful wedding pictures — she gave my husband and me the ability to go back and experience one of the best nights of our lives over and over again. If you are looking at Brayley’s work and considering booking her, DO IT. There is absolutely no one else I would have wanted behind the camera on our wedding day. She is talented, organized, patient, kind, creative, and just an absolute joy to work with. Brayley, THANK YOU for capturing our wedding so beautifully and giving us photos we will treasure for the rest of our lives. I truly cannot recommend you enough.

Your wedding photos should feel like your wedding, not a photoshoot with a wedding squeezed in. I love the editorial, frame-worthy portraits just as much as anyone, but the moments I'm really chasing are the ones you didn't even realize happened. The deep breath before you walk down the aisle. Your grandma absolutely tearing it up on the dance floor. Your partner looking at you like they just won the lottery. Those are the photos that somehow become everyone's favorites.

Having Skyler at our wedding was a blessing. Since I saw her photos and profile on social media I knew that she was the right photographer to capture the most important moment of our lives. And so it was... her relaxed aura makes you feel that you are among friends. She knows how to do her job and at the same time go unnoticed. You can’t imagine what she sees behind the lens until you receive the photos and say Woao!! You can feel the love and happiness of us (newlyweds) in each photo. Thank you Skyler for capturing our love in every photo.

I’ve never met photographers who put so much heart into what they do. You can feel it in every photo. They weren’t just snapping pictures; they were telling our story. I could see how much they cared, making sure we felt relaxed and happy.
