Sutton Photography Studio 
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Tar Heel, 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.

“Erin and the entire OLAS team were an absolute dream from start to finish. From our very first phone call to receiving the final gallery, everyone was kind, professional, and so helpful. Erin was a calming, joyful presence all day long – giving gentle direction exactly when we needed it and somehow making us feel like total naturals in front of the camera. Every single photo is breathtaking. She captured the giggles, the happy tears, the little glances – every moment that made the day feel like pure magic. Steve and I keep saying we’ve never smiled so much in our lives, and now we get to relive it forever because Erin caught our love so perfectly. If you’re getting married: book OLAS. 10/10. Marry your best friend and let OLAS capture it. We’re obsessed and will recommend them to everyone we know! Thank you, thank you, thank you for making our wedding day even more unforgettable.”

After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

“Michaela and I got married on September 6, 2026 at The Madison in Cleveland, and booking Sean was one of the best decisions we made. Before the big day, Sean checked in with several times, making sure our vision would come to life. His attention to detail during these touch points was so appreciated. He did a great job of condensing the things that both my wife and I wanted.  On the day itself, Sean was calm, professional, and genuinely easy to be around. He had a way of making us feel comfortable, so nothing felt stiff or overly posed. He kept things moving without ever making us feel rushed, and he seemed to be everywhere at once. Our guests loved him too! He went out of his way to make sure we got every family photo we wanted, which took a LOT of stress off of us. Family photos can get chaotic, and he handled it like a pro. When we got the gallery, we were blown away. The first look, the toasts, the sunset photos, the dance floor, he nailed every single one. The editing is perfect, but what really got us is that the photos tell the story of our day from start to finish. He caught moments we didn't even know happened, and we've already gone through the whole gallery more times than we can count. If you're looking for a photographer, book Sean. You won't regret it. Thank you, Sean, for giving us memories we'll have forever!”

“We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.”

I’m Kate — Ukrainian-born, Carolina-based, and the kind of photographer who will fix your veil, tell you exactly what to do with your hands, cry behind my camera during your dad’s speech, and somehow still notice your grandma tearing up across the room. I’ve been photographing people since 2018, and I’ve learned that the best wedding photos rarely come from trying to create a “perfect” wedding day. They come from actually having a really good one. I love incredible dresses, gorgeous light, old architecture, 35mm film, and portraits that could live in a magazine — but I love the champagne-popping, hair-coming-undone, friends-losing-it-on-the-dance-floor moments just as much.

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.

“Skyler is just the best. Her work is absolutely gorgeous and was exactly what we were hoping for in our wedding photos! We did an engagement session with Skyler a few months before our wedding. My husband and I were so nervous to be in front of the camera and we weren’t sure what to expect. Skyler was incredibly professional and made us comfortable immediately. And you can tell because the photos from the engagement session and the wedding day turned out stunning!! She captured such beautiful moments and you can feel the warmth and love in every image. I highly recommend Adornment!!!”

Your wedding day will be one of the most real days of your life — full of emotions, laughter, happy tears, and the people you love most. It deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt. I’m Aira, a documentary wedding photographer based in Maryland, available worldwide. I show up, get to know you, and quietly capture everything as it unfolds — the moments you noticed, and the ones you didn’t. Gentle guidance when you need it. Just you, being completely yourselves. I take on limited weddings each year. If your date is available — let’s talk.

“My husband Luke and I got married in September. We had a weekend, woodsy wedding. We are very laid back, gave a rough vision and were exceptionally pleased with Aira, and the photo she took. We didn’t enjoy the idea of being center of attention (kinda challenging during OUR wedding) and what we both were most looking forward to was watching our large families blend together and celebrating as one big family. Other than ensuring we had a few group photos, we didn’t want structured, posed looks. The reason we wanted a documentary style wedding was to capture the emotion of the celebration without forcing it. What we mostly wanted was someone to capture the small moments caught between people on the sidelines. Aira was great- so helpful and courteous, plus we really enjoyed her second shooter. We can tell they enjoyed being there. So far we have seen our first looks (WOW- I’m beyond thrilled. The photos of us are great, more than I could have wished for. Caught some cute moments and I’m beyond exited to see the rest- during the wedding my heart would smile at all the photos she was taking and moments she was capturing of our guests). We had friends with vlog cameras (similar to the cinematographer option she offers in which your friends film the event. Aira during our wedding day helped them find good angles for the tripod and even got some great shots herself when it was passed to her. She was very quick to offer help). To use my own words, the below is the email I sent to Aira following the wedding)… [Hi Aira!! Omg- thank you so much. SO MUCH!! For everything! And your second shooter was amazing, thank you for choosing and bringing her. Luke really loved her and the groomsmen really enjoyed her energy. Thank you both so so much - our family and multiple people said your shooting styles really complimented each other. A perfect team! Luke and I thought you both really understood our vision, how we wanted our day to run and feel, and you did an amazing job capturing our vision without ever feeling pushy or burdening and I truly felt as if you both were happy to be there and having the time of your lives. —I certainly was! I hope you enjoyed our crazy, entertaining, and endlessly loving family. I hope you had a fun time blending into the background and watching our love story. We both think you did an amazing job already, and we haven’t even seen any yet (except that video [Aira took] of me dancing! Thank you so much for making me feel like a star! You are so overwhelming thoughtful. Thank you for helping our guests pick good vantage points for the video tripod. We made a great choice when we picked you. We have been so blessed). Saturday was the best day of our lives. We have never felt so loved, seen, and cherished. Thank you again (both of you!) from the bottom of our hearts. I remember sharing before our day started that Luke and I, although we’re so bold, tend to shy away from center stage. We were nervous about having a day just about us. You made us feel so special and we know your photos will let us encapsulate and relive those feeling forever. Thank you. (We love you lol) Megan and Luke, the newlyweds 3] (Aira sends the sneak peak photos shortly after the wedding. Amazing. Plus as a surprise bonus, sends us a few brief videos she had captured throughout the night to add to our cinematography footage. What a sweet gift. So of course I was beyond thankful. Such a sweet angel, A service) 9.19.26”
