I am a Photographic Artist
Capturing light, feelings & moments and all the things in between people and life.
Relationship is the bridge that connects us to each other. Connection is key to creating raw, emotional, and authentic images. I want to get to know you. We should be friends! We should feel absolutely comfortable with each other on your wedding day. This is how my team and I take the stress out of photography on your wedding day! We know how weddings work, we anticipate the unexpected, and we are ready to support you and help you navigate the most important day of your lives!
I've been a documentary wedding photographer for over 20 years and I take what I do very seriously! It's not a side gig for me. It is my fulltime job! I love love! I love working with people and telling their stories. It is truly a passion for me. I give everything I can to my clients to ensure that your day is photographed in a way that makes it easy to relive the moments years from now!
Fun facts about me...
I am obsessed with sunsets, pickles are my favorite food, and espresso and whiskey are my favorite drinks! I'm a mom of 3 amazing humans! I have photographed a living president, and I've always lived close to water, but the mountains are my favorite place! Bing Crosby is my favorite singer, I've acted in a movie, and I've watched every Marvel movie in chronological order. My biggest bucket list item is to travel the world and photograph in other countries! I'm a Ravenclaw, born in the 80's but a 90's kid at heart. In my free time I sing with the Wilmington Choral Society and often frequent various karaoke spots around Wilmington. Born and raised right outside of Charlotte, NC in a little town called Albemarle. I have two dogs named Dobby (yes he loves socks) and Remi. They are my two furry kids LOL I am married to the most wonderful woman I've ever met and am loving life now more than ever!

My Inspiration
My Inspiration
As a child I can remember sitting on the bed with my grandmother, she would get out all the family albums, and we would spend hours looking through the photos as she told me all about who everyone was. It was sacred to me. Somehow, at my young age, I knew that those moments were extremely important. I knew that it meant something, that the history before me in those family photos was my heritage. That is where my love for photography began. The sacred act of documenting life became my passion.

My background in photojournalism is the inspiration for my artistic style. You can find my work in these great publications:
Heather & Jaime // Ocean Isle, NC
"If a picture is worth a thousand words, Terah deserves a Pulitzer for the beautiful love story she captured with her lens."
blythe & kord // wilmington, nc
"From the first phone call “meeting” until the I do’s, Terah was amazing. She was so personable. Talking to her and working with her felt like family. She stepped in when she knew she needed to take charge and got so many memorable shots. I cannot recommend anyone more highly than I recommend her."
laura & brandon // goldsboro, nc
"Terah was amazing! She is extremely professional and her pictures are top notch. She is so nice and easy to work with. We don't like getting our pictures taken but she made everything a breeze and we look great. She was our engagement and wedding photographer. I would recommend her to anyone! Our day-of coordinator said she was great to work with as well!"
liz & rodney // wilmington, nc
"First off all not only is Terah just an all around amazing person but Terah makes you feel so comfortable. I’m always feel so awkward when I’m being photographed but with Terah I never felt that way at all! She gives fantastic advice, direction in poses, sets up the cutest moments, and constantly checks in to see how you’re feeling during it. I will never stop recommending her! I can be so extremely anxious but with her energy I never felt anxious on such a big day! Her work clearly speaks for its self as well! Terah and Laurene were just absolutely fantastic through and through and we can not thank them enough for all the memories we will have for years to come!"
