    Worth Every Cent

    We booked our wedding in three weeks due to a number of factors and thankfully Carrie was available to shoot it for us. It was a simple ceremony with no reception, so 4 hours in total is what we booked. Our pictures are so beautiful, they made us cry when we went through them. She’s an absolute professional at what she does and so beautifully creative. I’m still in awe at how she made that day look more beautiful than even it was & perfectly captured how much my husband and I love each other. We had our preview back in 3 days and as promised our full set back exactly a month from our wedding date. She’s worth every cent, couldn’t recommend her more. Thank you so much Carrie ❤️

    The best photoprapher!

    We were blessed with an exceptional photographer! Carrie is a true journalist and artist. She captured so many moments - big and small - that we will treasure forever. She and her friend Kendra made our big day perfect! She worked with and around the rain and the photos are stunning! We are grateful for these photos we will treasure forever! Highly recommend!

    Creative wedding photography!

    Carrie was the photographer at our wedding. She was amazing to work with and provided thoughtful little touches throughout the process, starting with chocolates mailed to our door upon agreeing to work with her. She is extremely capable, professional and creative. Her organization, like asking us to mail our save the dates, invitations, and programs beforehand so she could make sure to photograph them day of and her photography questionnaire, made everything go so smoothly on our big day. She immediately set us and our families at ease and has a knack for capturing all the little moments of the day. We absolutely love all of our wedding day photos, from the classic family photos to the creative and stylized dance floor ones. Carrie's ability to retell the story of our wedding day makes looking back at our photos an absolute joy and an experience that brings back all the feels. The format she sends galleries in makes it extremely easy to share, sort, and download your favorites. Thank you Carrie for capturing our wedding revelry!!

    Even better than expected!

    Having Carrie as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made when it came to wedding planning. She was super personable from the very beginning of our wedding planning process. As soon as I chose her, she sent me kind words reminding me to enjoy my time planning as it can be very stressful. She asked well-thought out questions to prepare adequately for the big day and gave honest feedback and answers to the questions I had. The day-of, no one put my new husband and I more at ease than Carrie. We dealt with a very rowdy bridal party and Carrie along with her second shooter, Nick, took everything in stride and weren't afraid to rein in our rowdy groomsmen--professionally of course. Carrie captured all of the photographs that we requested with only one exception that was beyond her control because my brother was no where to be found during post-ceremony pictures but Carrie made sure that she was able to include him in photos later in the evening. She also made sure to steal us between dinner and the party to get some personal shots of just my husband and me--she let us share a few intimate moments together and was able to step back and capture it all- which is something I'll treasure forever. I was a very anxious bride and she checked in with me several times throughout the night just to make sure I was okay. When the photographs came back, I was amazed, I knew they would be great based on her portfolio and creativity, but they were even better than I expected. She manipulates lighting extremely well and used it to her advantage in all of our photographs, even during a time of day that I would have expected the lighting to be very difficult to work with. Looking through all of the pictures feels like reliving the day all over again. She captured the spirit of our day beautifully and completely. She didn’t miss a single memory—I don’t think she took a single break all night. She is a top-notch photographer, and on top of that, she is a kind and thoughtful person--the kind of vendor every stressed out bride needs on her side on her wedding day!

    Carrie came to me in a unique way. She was able to step in at the last minute for her friend, the photographer I had hired, who's mother was admitted to hospice days before the wedding. It was a confluence of sad inevitability and happy accident. I had specifically chosen the photographer based on his more relaxed, non-stage-y style and Carrie was his first choice to fill in for him because she shares his aesthetic. This happened to be the only weekend of the summer she wasn't already booked. It was meant to be. Carrie's photos are gorgeous. We are so happy with them and will cherish them forever, but I also want to share my appreciation of her as a person. Weddings are very busy with lots of people around and you find yourself pinging from person to person like a human pinball. Because Carrie was there to capture it all, she was also there as a sounding board when I needed one and she really helped keep me grounded through all the hubbub. I will forever be grateful that she stopped us at one point and told us we needed to get out there and enjoy our reception! We were so busy pinging, we hadn't even stopped to enjoy our own party! Thank you Carrie for everything. I loved working with you, I love the photos and I am so grateful to you and Nick both.

    Stop scrolling and book her immediately! You will be glad you did! Carrie is so good to work with! She shot our wedding and invested her time into our special day. We couldn't be happier with our photos, which arrived just a few weeks after the wedding and were packaged adorably. So lucky to have found her!

    Carrie was amazing! She met with us several times before the wedding to help us plan. She helped us put together our day-of timeline, suggested locations for our rehearsal dinner and first look photos, and adapted the package to fit our schedule (this was a destination wedding for us). She was easy to work with, and made us comfortable in front of the camera. And our photos were beautiful!

    Carrie was the photographer that my husband and I chose as our wedding photographer (we used to be professional photographers ourselves, so we were VERY picky). Carrie is a warm, loving, and creative person, and photographer. She is both friendly and professional. The photos that she took of our wedding day were exactly what we were looking for...and more! The photos didn't only capture the day, but also the spirit, the love, the emotion...and the pure joy. Thank you Carrie!

    Carrie was such a joy to work with, and our photos are absolutely beautiful! She was professional, organized, and extremely patient (especially when it came to getting my large family together for group photos!). One of my most treasured memories of our day was directly after the ceremony when my husband and I took a few moments to do portraits with Carrie. This was the only time the whole day we had to ourselves, and Carrie encouraged us to breath and enjoy each other's company. I am so grateful for this time we had together. To be honest, after the portraits I don't remember seeing Carrie once! She magically stayed in the middle of all of the action without being a distraction. Our whole wedding day was a big, happy blur so it was so nice to be able to relive the day through Carrie's photos. She captured so many beautiful details and moments. We could not be happier with the finished project.

    Choosing Carrie as my wedding photographer was the best decision I could have made (besides marrying my husband)! She was organized, professional and flexible. She was very responsive and quick to reply any time I had questions. It poured down rain on my wedding day, so we had to modify our plan - Carrie was great throughout and really made the most of what we had to work with. By the end of the night, she was just like a close friend/family member! She did a fantastic job wrangling all of our family for portraits as well as captured so many beautiful moments and details of our day! She posted a tease picture to Facebook the next day and a preview within 2 weeks of the wedding. All of my family and friends commented on how great she was - she was in position to catch great moments without drawing attention away from what was happening. She was everywhere and nowhere all at once. I'll have a hard time narrowing down which pics to choose for printing as I absolutely LOVE all the images!

    Carrie was incredible to work with! We met with her twice before the wedding and felt like it was really important to her that we were all on the same page about what we wanted. She was very flexible and professional. She even stayed an extra hour at no charge after things took longer than she expected at the venue. Carrie truly perfects the "fly on the wall" technique, she was everywhere at once and several guests commented on how hard she was working. I would definitely recommend Carrie!

    Carrie is just AWESOME! She has photographed our engagement session, wedding, and bridal portraits and each experience was wonderful. She creates unique photos that truly capture the real life emotion of the event. Not only is she extremely talented, but she is easy to work with and makes everyone feel natural and at ease while they are being photographed. She's the best!

    Carrie was the perfect fit for us. I'm so glad we found her to photograph our wedding. She was very professional, but not stuffy. She listened to us, made us feel comfortable and her pricing was very reasonable. And then there's the photographs...stunning. We wanted photos that captured mood and environment, and didn't seem too staged. She did a great job on all counts. She has a great eye and a creative style that results in unusual, beautiful images that really capture the moment. I would highly recommend her to anyone planning an event.

    Thank you Carrie!

    My husband and I hired Carrie to photograph and could not be more happy with how everything turned out. Her photojournalistic style captivated me before ever meeting her. Everything I saw from her portfolio was very natural and lacked the stiff, posed feel of most bridal photography I had seen, so we hired her almost immediately. We planned our wedding from out of town, and Carrie was easy to get in touch with to hammer out little detailes, setting my mind at ease. When the wedding day came, Carrie had just had a baby about a week before and you would have never known it. She kept up with everyone and was literally on the ground capturing all kinds of great shots that I don't know other photographers would have noticed. She was easy to work with and I had every friend and family member telling me how much they loved her and thought she was so great to work with. She made me, not a naturally photogenic person, feel comfortable, and was able to get me to loosen up and take a ton of amazing photos. The albums we received are the most gorgeous wedding albums I have ever seen. She packages everything in such a stunning manner, even down to the hand stamped CD cases. The album itself, though, was the perfect story telling of the day itself. Rather than a series of posed photos and then some action shots, it takes you through the entire day with detailed shots, candid photos, and some that were posed but do not look posed at all. We love looking at it and showing it to our family and friends. I have used her since the wedding for professional shots that I use for my business website, and will use her again any time I need photos taken. I would recommend her to anyone. You will get the best, most natural looking photos.

    Carrie did an excellent job photographing our wedding. Meghan and I got married on 10/14 in Bryson City, NC. Carrie did an outstanding job capturing the moment. Extremely friendly and easy to work with. We highly recommend!!

    Carrie really captured our wedding theme, which was laid-back and intimate; she was professional and flexible (especially considering we had a lot of young children). I love the images she captured and would recommend her highly for anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

    Carrie was recommended to us by our officiant, Michelle Kimberly Smith. The first time we spoke with Carrie on the phone she was very professional and willing to travel to our destination wedding. Carrie has a special/specific stile and flair to her work that we really liked. Our wedding was at an extremely intimate venue and she was able to capture the day very well so we could share it with those who didn't attend. She sent us a quick preview right away before she worked on the photographs then sent the final CD's a couple weeks later. She sent two CD's, one with her favorites and one with the entire event. We were very happy we hired Carrie for our wedding. Thanks to her, we have terrific memories of our extraordinary day. We would highly recommend her to our closest friends and anybody who needed a great photographer.

    Carrie was a lovely person to work with and in my budget which most wedding photographers weren't. My only issues were that my portrait list was not followed and we ended up with only 2 pictures of my husband's family from the entire night, but there were countless pictures of feet and food. I do recommend working with Carrie, but I also recommend being incredibly specific about what pictures you want and perhaps have a friend check in with her during the night to make sure those pictures have been gotten. On a positive note, she's wonderful to be around and she composes her photographs beautifully.
