I’m the photographer who creates scroll stopping photos for those madly in love.
You bring the emotion, I’ll bring an eye for the frame-worthy moments!
Your only job is to be in love. I’ll handle the rest.
I’m a Charlotte-based wedding photographer, a self-taught artist and a firm believer that the best photographs aren’t posed they’re felt. If you love real, intimate, artistic imagery, let’s be friends!
“Emmy creates true works of art... Her compassion and true enthusiasm for the day is exactly what we needed.”
TRUE WORKS OF ART
MARLI & BLAKE
If I’m not editing or photographing, I’m probably exploring with my husband Justin, watching New Girl or the Office, a minimum of three drinks within arm’s reach (water, coffee, Dr. Pepper).
Spotify always has my Emmy's Guide to Emmy playlist on repeat, and I’m either quoting New Girl or planning my next trip like a woman on a mission!
Fall and Spring are tied for my favorite season but Christmas is my favorite holiday and the only thing stronger than my 90lb pup Charlie is my love for that golden, cozy light.
You’d be surprised to know…
I didn’t become a wedding photographer because I loved portraits.
I became one because I couldn’t stop thinking about the moments in between.
The breath before the vows.
The nervous laugh while fixing a boutonnière.
The way you squeeze each other’s hands when no one’s watching.
That’s what pulled me in & it’s still what keeps me showing up to every wedding with excited butterflies in my stomach!
Since then I’ve traveled the world and been invited into some of your most precious memories. 100% of me is poured into every project, and a little bit of me is left in each photo. Off the clock: mountain ranges, NYC, morning coffee and sunsets.

LITTLE DID I KNOW I’D LEAVE COLLEGE TO SHOOT FULL TIME (AND MEET MY HUSBAND ON TIKTOK)
I picked up a camera in high school and fell instantly in love. I taught myself everything — photography and business — learned to shoot film, and left college my junior year to do this full time.
