engagement portraits – inside, outside, sandals, boots, urban or in the mountains
We’ve photographed brides and grooms-to-be in every type of clothing and every type of setting. Flip flops and water……… heels downtown and everything in between. At Pixels, we want your engagement portraits to represent you, showcase who you are, what you care about, how you met, and in a place that makes you comfortable and will be remembered in the years to come.
Contact us to discuss your plans and ideas and let us help you get excited not only about your engagement portraits, but to develop save-the-date cards, discuss your wedding and show you some Pixels love.
We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs, engagements and weddings, brides, and special events and portraits of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio.

Will you? Yes! Now…… time for engagement portraits
If you’re like many of the couples we’ve heard from over just the last couple of weeks, you’re jazzed about both the holiday that’s licking our heels and the new year to come because YOU’RE NEWLY ENGAGED. Congratulations!! If you’re in the afterglow of realization that you’re starting a new chapter, enjoy it! And when you’re ready to put away the last string of garland and haul in your 2018 desk blotter calendar, call us for your engagement portraits. It’s one item we can help take care of on your list.
We’ve been photographing couples, brides and weddings for over 13 years and it’s different every time. Year to year, new faces, new ideas for locations, new dynamics and amazing new stories. We always ask couples for their back story so that we can get to know you and more about who you are, what makes you a couple and what you’re looking forward to about your wedding day. It’s also a chance for us to help you relax during the shoot, figure out details you might have questions about and help make the day fun and the images memorable. Engagement portraits are heirlooms. We look forward to creating yours!
The time it takes to get everything planned shouldn’t overwhelm you, but it can. Contact us and we’ll start the conversation and planning to help insure your story and engagement photos are everything you want them to be. Looking forward to meeting you!

Engagement portrait season …. is also upon us
at a vineyard
We get it. You’re on eBates buying holiday presents, but if you are a bride you may also be looking for your gown, a wedding venue, a DJ, caterer, etc. If you’re looking for your photographer and haven’t seen our work, I sincerely hope you will today. Pixels has been photographing engagement portraits on mountain trails, in alumni football stadiums, in fields of spring, in the middle of fall, at homesteads and all over for 13 years.

While you are making decisions about the day itself, don’t forget that your engagement portraits can be a way to ask people to save the date and will be a part of your family history for a long time. Contact us to book your date and discuss locations and details. We cannot wait to meet you!

A Full Circle
We want to believe that “things come full circle.” In fact, we say it with a spirit of hopefulness. There is continuity in life: births, deaths, struggles, triumphs, remembrances, redemption, connection and repatriation. It takes age, wisdom and being observant to realize it and I would like to believe that Ryan and I are those people. We certainly try to be!
There is also the idea of creating a large and full circle of people around you: those who inspire and challenge you, have your back, love and celebrate with you and hold you up when you just cannot do it alone. Ryan and I have both in our lives: that sense that things are coming full circle as we prepare to be first time parents AND that we’re surrounded, literally and figuratively, by people ready to help, support and love us in this new chapter.
Over the last 14 years, we’ve been blessed to be a part of your lives (and we have no plans to stop). But as we get ready to greet our son (the full circle in my belly at the moment), I’m reminded of all the chapters of your lives we’ve captured on film and those chapters we’re about to embark on ourselves. We’ve learned so much watching you all.
We’ve photographed engagement portraits in all sorts of settings, celebrating the beginnings of new marriages. We’ve taken bridal portraits inside and outside with brides in sneakers or cowboy boots, in gardens, in tiaras, on staircases and in the woods. Those moments absolutely take us back to our own engagement, wedding and first years together.
And the weddings themselves we’ve photographed – too many to count – where there is the crush of emotion and relief and joy and then “let’s get out of here and go on a honeymoon!”
Children. This one is particularly tender for obvious reasons, but watching you all as we took maternity photos, newborn portraits, first birthdays, new siblings and the growth of your families has been the best. You hunker down during the hard stuff and laugh out loud during the silly bits, but your commitment to family is something we understand completely.
We love living our lives in the open amongst such amazing friends, colleagues, and family – those by blood and those forged from common interests, trust and deep connections. While we may need to hibernate a bit when our little man arrives, we’ll be happy to share stories, ask questions and continue to watch our lives come full circle. We love you all so much and thank each of you for the part you play in our lives.
