Behind the Lens
meet meghan
Hopeless romantic and a realistic optimist, I'm a lover of sunshine, exploring new places, and the classic, true-to-life tones and nostalgia of film.
By 12 years old, I had witnessed my parents divorce not just once, but twice. But even despite this, I still continued to believe: we are made for marriage. I always knew in the core of my soul, there welled a burning, soaring need to fight – and fight hard – for keeping marriages alive.
And because photography is my tool, well-crafted and hard-earned, I now have the duty to use it for a greater good: to helping marriages find sanctity and promise in their vows.
This is why I approach your wedding day with such reverence and determination to capture YOU - who you are together, who can become together. With me, you'll feel safe enough to laugh in front of, cry in front of, heck - even grab your spouse's booty in front of! Because at the end of the day, these images are going to be reminders of why you said "I do," in the first place, and why you should keep saying it every day after. These photos will also be treasured by your children and generations to come, so let's make them matter.
I've been photographing weddings for over 10 years, all over the country and the globe. I am kind, upbeat, and professional. One of the biggest perks of having me with you on your wedding day is my ability to anticipate and recognize emotion. I am happy to go with the flow, capture the in-between moments, and find the prettiest light. I love warm, bright, true-to-life edits. I believe choosing your wedding photographer is not just a process of finding a style you like, but also a person you want to spend the day with. You'll most likely be with your wedding photographer on your wedding day more than you’re with your spouse, so pick a good one!

hey ya'll!
These folks right here. They keep me sane, drive me crazy, make me laugh, and hold me together. Their initials are tattooed on my arm: I quite literally wear my heart on my sleeve.

We love to hike and be outdoors! Some of our favorite spots in Western North Carolina are Black Balsam Knob, Max Patch, Graveyard Fields, Sliding Rock, Wolf Creek Lake, Glenville Lake, Linville Gorge, and our own little farmhouse on 3 acres. We moved here because we love here, and plan to be here longterm!

my promise
Celebrate marriage
create images that remind my couple
With my business, I promise to
by capturing my couples’ love stories in an authentic, meaningful way.
I promise to
how it felt to first be in love, and not just what it looked like on the outside. When difficult times arise, may their photos serve as a reminder of why they fell in love in the first place - and why it’s worth staying in love, years after the wedding day. May their photos be a source of hope and renewal in each other and their love.
I promise to
but encourage them to embrace opportunities to be photographed throughout the entirety of their marriage. To show them, their families and posterity, and the world that honoring marriage means not only saying I do on their wedding day, but every day after as well.
I promise to
to encourage laughter, individuality, personality, and joy; to instill confidence in every woman and man; to remind each person in front of my camera that we all deserve our honest stories to be told, both for and to ourselves and also for and to generations to come.
