Adam

LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER

Adam has had a camera in his hands since he was old enough to purchase his 3.2 megapixel Canon Powershot A310 at age seven (don't worry, he’s upgraded since then). Coming from a family of photographers and having the opportunity to live in Berlin, Germany (a mecca for designers and creatives), he grew an early appreciation for the art of photography and for travel. Now, he feels fortunate to get to pursue his passion by following it wherever it might take him.

Adam is all about capturing how a moment feels, not just how it looks.  He’s passionate about people and one of his favorite things about wedding photography is the opportunity to meet new couples and to be a part of their special day. 

 

Noah

LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER

A firm believer that each story is as unique as the people he captures, Noah views the moments that unfold in front of his lens as a gift - an opportunity to serve clients on their most meaningful days by documenting and preserving a legacy through photographs. Noah is based in North Carolina but frequently wandering, chasing beautiful light and natural emotion wherever it may lead.

When not behind the lens, Noah can be found guzzling cold brew coffee, adventuring with his Labrador puppy, or scouring the far corners of the earth in search of the perfect breakfast sandwich.

Noah is based in Raleigh but frequently travels all over the state.

 

Maggie

LEAD PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi, I’m Maggie B! Originally from Bakersville, NC, a small town in the mountains. I studied Business Entrepreneurship at UNCW, and developed a love for photography while working at Social Coffee and Supply doing branding. As I invested more effort and time into photography, I discovered how much I enjoyed couples' shoots. A romantic at heart, the most fulfilling part of my job is capturing couples on their journey and telling their stories. Through wedding photography, I hope to create timeless memories they can enjoy throughout their lives. 

Photography allows me to incorporate my bubbly personality to make clients feel comfortable sharing their love and memories with both me and the camera. My ultimate goal is to make every session a meaningful experience to associate alongside the personal milestones for each couple. 

Outside of photography, you can find me creating memories of my own on the beach or a boat with my friends, running, traveling, or mixing up a cocktail!

Sophia

LEAD VIDEOGRAPHER

Hey, I’m Sophia and I have a passion for capturing forever love stories. I’ve been using a camera for as long as I can remember, and over the past ten years, I’ve grown in my experience as a creative storyteller. Capturing moments throughout my life has always been something I’ve enjoyed, and creating films out of those moments brings me great fulfillment. Studying film, running a YouTube channel for nine years, and working with brands to create videos has all led me to find my passion in wedding videography. I love working with the adventurous, goofy and over-the-moon-in-love couples who are looking for a film to tell their unique story.

When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me working in the art studio, sipping on a flat white at my favorite coffee shop, or spending days at the beach with my friends.
