Photos guided by 

We're not a production team. Life is the production, and it doesn't need our direction - we move where it moves throughout your wedding day, because we know that's where the true beauty is.

Outer Banks Wedding Photographers

The moments in them

No Stuffy cookie cutter poses here

We're all about creating real, dynamic, high-quality photography that reflects the joy you've gathered to celebrate. 

This means you won't have to stop every few seconds to smile for the camera. Instead, you'll get genuine, in-the-moment photos that don't take away from the actual moments as they happen.

the magic of The outer banks

Our work is greatly inspired by the wild and dynamic barrier islands of North Carolina that we're blessed to call home

The magic of the Outer Banks is its untamable spirit. We see a similar spirit in our clients... in your story and the inspiration that makes your wedding wholly unique. 

We'll take the time to truly understand your vision + what's most important to you, so that we can create stunning photographs as distinct as each wave that rolls ashore. 

"Daniel and Kate went above and beyond to make our day perfect! This is their passion and calling and it shows. I wouldn’t hire any other photographer in OBX. They know this area so well!
