The Best Wedding Photographers in Waynesville, NC

I’m Hayley, a Knoxville, Tennessee-based photographer with a deep love for storytelling, families, and the quiet in-between moments that so often go unnoticed. I specialize in weddings rooted in connection and meaning, with a special love for celebrating couples in the stunning beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. My photography style is a blend of editorial and documentary — beautifully composed, artful imagery paired with raw, real emotion. I’ll guide you into the best light and composition when needed, but I’m also always watching for the spontaneous, heartfelt moments — the ones that can't be planned, only lived.

Hey there! I’m Aubry. A photographer, storyteller, and proud mama to a little girl who keeps my heart full. I love meeting new clients, learning their unique love stories, and capturing those candid, heartfelt moments that make life so special. Photography for me isn’t just pictures, it’s preserving memories you’ll treasure forever.

I am a Mama to two red headed blue eyed babies and wife to a tender hearted bearded mountain man. Fox & Owl is my love story with that man and it's a small whisper of my deep + intimate relationship with the natural world. I'm a fiery woman as a Leo sun and Sag moon + rising. I cuss a lot and I break out into a terrible British accent when I'm excited - especially when I'm shooting with my clients. I love dark humor and I get tickled at the smallest things. You can find me at home with my fam and my dogs, deep in the woods howling at the moon, around a fire with an endless glass of Scotch, or enjoying a cuppa in my favorite coffee shop.

We’re a husband-and-wife photography duo based just outside of Asheville, NC, capturing love stories near and far. High school sweethearts since 2013, our journey together has shaped the way we see and document the world—with warmth, authenticity, and an eye for the in-between moments. Our passion lies in beautifully framing candid memories, letting your love and personality shine. When we’re not behind the camera, you’ll find us hiking mountain trails, tending to our garden, cooking up something delicious, or playing with our pup, Josie. We can’t wait to tell your story through our lens!

I began this journey several years ago (formerly as Brandi-Lee Photography). Recently, I had decided to transform my brand into a more intentional & creative art. Photography has become one way I can express myself creatively while freezing a moment in time. I'm especially drawn to documentary & lifestyle photography as I love how natural the emotions are in the photos. There is a story to be told & I look forward to helping capture it on film. I like to consider myself as a visual storyteller.

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.
