THE DAY YOU HAVE BEEN DREAMING ABOUT IS APPROACHING, AND I KNOW JUST HOW IMPORTANT IT IS FOR YOU TO FIND THE RIGHT PERSON TO HELP YOU CAPTURE EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF IT. I'M THAT PERSON!
Hello, I am Mandy.
I've been photographing weddings for 10+ years and over hundreds of couples. I'm based in Hickory, North Carolina, but I am available to travel worldwide.
I’m a hopeless romantic, so I believe in LOVE! One of my favorite author is Nicholas Sparks! Some of my favorite books and movies from him are The Notebook, The Best of Me, and a Walk to Remember.
I believe in memories and moments and all the tiny unforgettable things that happen in between. I love what I do, and my goal is to capture all the beautiful and memorable moments – from the details of your dress, shoes, rings to your ceremony, family portraits, toasts, to the grand exit, so that you can remember every detail of your beautiful wedding day!
While I specialize in weddings and engagements, I also offer photo booth and limited lifestyle sessions - family, maternity, high school seniors, real estate and product photography! Contact me for more info.

"The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. And that's what you've given me. That's what I'd hoped to give you forever."

WE LOVE YOUR WORK, AND WOULD LIKE TO BOOK? WHAT IS THE PROCESS?
If you are ready to book me for your wedding, please send me a message to confirm availability. I will respond within 24-72 hours. I do require $1000 and signed contract to book. Remaining balance is due 30 days prior to wedding date.
If you're interested in an engagement session too, we will plan it after you're officially booked and on our calendar!
For all other inquires, please send me a message for further information.
Will there be a second photographer?
Yes, second photographer is included in the Gold and Platinum collections or you can add it for an additional fee. A second photographer is recommended if you have multiple locations or if you need extra coverage.
What kind of gear do you use?
I'm a Canon girl! My cameras include Canon R6 & R. Lenses: 16-35mm, RF 28-70mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, 100mm, and 70-200mm.
Lights: Ad200 x 4 and Xplor 600
How many weddings do you book a year?
I only accept 10-14 weddings a year, so I can truly focus on each couple. My goal is to give you the best experience, and to truly be present for your special day.
Do you shoot destination weddings?
Yes, I am available to travel worldwide. Contact me for an exact quote.
What is the turnaround time for full gallery delivery?
After your wedding, it will take around 8 weeks before your full gallery is ready. I will send you an email with the link, and you can download and share with family and friends.
USB flash drive will be mailed out within 5 business days after your online gallery has been released.
If your collection includes a photo book, I will start the design process after the full gallery has been released. Turnaround time is usually 10 business days or sooner.
Do I have to order prints through you?
No, you will be provided with a print release, and you can print at any photo lab of your choice or you can order directly from us from your online gallery!
