The Photobrief, LLC

Specialty Vendors · Southern Pines, NC

I'm a wedding photographer who believes in harnessing and capturing genuine emotion- the kind that comes naturally from your relationships. My work is grounded in intentionality and authenticity, and driven by a passion for storytelling, making each wedding gallery a testament to how that day not only looked but felt. Analog focused, I put an emphasis on photographing with 35mm and 120 film.
