I see you may be looking for a photographer that JUST might be the perfect fit for your engagement or wedding day! I’m Rae and my photography style is a mix of classic and natural with a little bit of spunk.  I don’t like creating boring photos, and I want them to drip with style.

I’m located in Raleigh, North Carolina and I’m available for weddings all over North Carolina and much of the east coast.

I’ve photographed thousands of couples and have had the honor of being a part of many LGBTQ+ celebrations.

I may not be changing the world with photographs, but capturing memories and making people feel like STUNNERS can make the world a better place one person at a time. I’m a Raleigh Gay Wedding Photographer and I’m ready to party with you!

North Carolina LGBTQ+ Wedding Photographer

The look on their face when they see you for the FIRST TIME,

the tears from mom as she ties up the dress, the little DETAILS you planned for months leading up to the event.

The party may look different each time, but the magic is always there.

That’s what I’m looking for.

it's nice to meet you

I'M Rae

editorial North carolina photographer

I’ve been a photographer for over 16 years now, which is getting alarming.  Am I really that old?

I was raised in the deep south, born in Texas and went to school in Alabama.  It was there that I learned that some people have a lot of opinions on who other people should be.

My goal is to be a safe and uplifting presence when it comes to my photography sessions and being a part of something as special as a wedding day celebration, no matter how big or how small.
