Little, personalized touches are often what makes one wedding different than all others and our advice to each couple we photograph is to find ways to make their wedding day personalized. Some couples pick 2-3 specific items to focus on – succulents and a nod to a shared love of cycling for example (see below) – or a love of Dr. Who and their college school colors. But whether it’s some trinket added to the bride’s bouquet, or a lines from a poem painted and featured around the reception hall, incorporating those special items of significance throughout the décor, food and flowers can make an event memorable.

One of the neat things about us even though we’re on year 14 of photographing weddings together is that our perspectives are totally different. Ryan absolutely loves the small details and he loves to photograph them. No matter how hard I try, his are always better. He just has a knack for it. 

We love to see when a couple’s personalities are incorporated into wedding details and decor, even if it’s just subtle hints. Sometimes a lot of time, effort and creativity go into making these details and we certainly want to be sure that they’re photographed uniquely. Favorite books, family heirlooms, inside jokes, modern takes on wedding toppers, it’s all as specific as each couple is different.

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. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.
