Julia Elise Collective

Over the 7+ years of my career as a photographer I’ve photographed a lot of special moments and once in a lifetime experiences and this one has to be one of my favorites yet.

For the past four years my younger sister has been working towards a fashion design degree at NC State and I had the absolute honor of photographing her senior collection from this spring.

Her “Behind the Name” collection explores the way names carry history, memory, and the people that come before us in the designs of a wedding gown and wedding guest fashion.

Lucy I’ve loved watching you explore this passion of yours and turn it into your career as you prepare to join Abercrombie’s design team. You inspire me constantly both as a creative and a person and I’m so proud of who you are and who you are becoming. 🤍

I am truly at a loss for words when it comes to describing just how fully the presence of God was felt on Kristen and Logan’s wedding day. Not just one but two rainbows appeared moments before Kristen walked down the aisle and had everyone in attendance simply in awe. 🌈🌈

Pretty place is beautiful enough as is, but this double rainbow made it just that much more breathtaking. What a special day celebrating these two as they begin their forever to their with God at the center. A dream in every way!!!! 🕊️

what it felt like— at home with the mayer family 🕊️

this session was extra special because I got to photograph one of my best friends in her new role as stella’s mom. motherhood looks beautiful on you & you and luke are incredible parents to your girl. what an honor and a joy to document this season of your family 🤍

Hannah & Parker’s engagement session in downtown Greenville was SO much fun!!!! these two are originally from Montana and were completely unphased by this windy chilly day. I loved documenting the playful love they share and getting to know them and their story. part two coming sooooon!!!!! 🤭🤍
