Pulse Portraits

You should get to go to your own wedding. Hug your people. Eat the cake you spent three Saturdays picking out. We’ll help plan the photos so you have time for all of it. We’re Kirstie and Chelsea, the wife-and-wife team behind Pulse Portraits. Based near Charlotte, NC, we photograph weddings across the U.S. Chelsea leads the photography, blending candid coverage with relaxed portraits. We’ll get the family photo for the wall and catch the laugh right after everyone thinks we’re done. Alongside your edited wedding gallery, we include a separate guest gallery with a custom QR code at each table, so you can enjoy everyone’s snapshots without chasing down half the guest list.

Tell us what you’d hate to miss at your own wedding. If it’s cocktail hour with friends you haven’t seen in years, we’ll help plan portraits around it. If it’s a photo with your grandma before she heads home, we’ll make time for it early. Those are the details we want to know before we ever pick up a camera. On the day, we’re good at reading the room. We’ll round up a wandering wedding party, give you just enough direction to feel comfortable, and know when to shut up because something real is happening. If it rains, we can find a dry spot or go make something gorgeous in the rain. Your call. We bring shoes for both.
