We're Ciara & Josh. We handle the timeline, the family photos, the light, and the nerves, so the only thing you have to do on your wedding day is be in it. Here's how it works.

You should enjoy your own wedding.
Your day shouldn't feel like a photoshoot. We work fast and light, so you can taste the champagne, hug the people you love, and actually be at your own party.

01

Bring your Pinterest board. Then trust us.
Your inspiration tells us what you love. Our job is to turn it into something nobody has pinned yet.

02

You hired us for a reason.
You chose us for our eye. On the day, let go of the timeline worries and let us do what we do best.

03

Be there. Really there
Put the phone down. Look at each other during the ceremony. The day moves fast, and we'll hold onto it so you don't have to.

04

Your wedding, not theirs
Let go of outside expectations and family pressure. The most powerful photographs come from a celebration that is unapologetically yours.

05

Chic outlasts trendy
Trends fade. We skip the fads and focus on your chemistry, real laughter, and connection, so your photos look as good in thirty years as they do today.

06

A few things        we
believe

"They have a unique approach: the results are timeless, but also modern and fashionable."

How It Works

01 The Call

We start with a video call to hear everything: your plans, your people, and what you want to feel when you look back.

02 The Planning

You fill out our wedding questionnaire, and we build your photography timeline and family photo list with you and your planner. We study your Pinterest board, too.

03 The Engagement Editorial

Your first shoot together, styled by Ciara and directed by Josh. By the wedding, the camera feels like an old friend.

04 The Day

Both of us, from getting ready to the last dance. In the last hour, the GlamLight opens for you and your guests.

05 The Sneak Peek

A handful of favorites soon after the wedding, to hold you over.

06 The Gallery

Your full edited gallery, ready to download and share, with fine art prints and heirloom albums to follow.

Working with us feels easy and natural, with every part of the experience thoughtfully designed around you

Tell Us About
Your Day

We take a limited number of weddings each year so every couple gets both of us, completely. If your date is still open, we'd love to hear everything.

Q. What is your photography style?

Editorial and unposed. Josh directs, Ciara styles, and the result looks like a magazine story about your real day.

Q. Who will be photographing our wedding day?

Ciara & Josh, personally. Every full-day wedding collection includes both of us, from getting ready to the last dance.

Q. Do you offer engagement, boudoir, or rehearsal dinner sessions?

Yes, along with day-after sessions. Each can be booked on its own or added to your wedding collection.

Q. How will we receive our photos?

Your finished gallery arrives in a private online gallery, ready to download and share. Fine art prints and heirloom albums are also available.

Q. Where are you based, and do you travel?

Raleigh, North Carolina. We shoot across the East Coast (North Carolina, Virginia, DC, and New York) and travel anywhere in the world.

Q. What collections do you offer?

Full-day and multi-day wedding collections, intimate elopements, engagement and bridal editorials, boudoir, and rehearsal dinner coverage. Videography is also available.

Q. What is the GlamLight?

Our answer to the photo booth, and nothing like one. In the last hour of dancing, we set up an old Hollywood portrait studio on red velvet, then light and direct every portrait of you and your guests. It's included in our full-day collections.

Q. How far in advance should we book?

Most couples book 6 to 12 months ahead, and the most popular dates go sooner. To hold yours, check your date through our inquiry form, and we'll set up a call.
