Pinehurst and southern Pines wedding photographer

Weddings * Engagements * Families * Maternity * Newborn

Mollie was so easy and pleasant to work with. Her photos are beautiful and her easy-going nature made us feel relaxed in front of the camera, leading to really great, natural looking pictures. She was so nice, so much fun, so talented and totally worth it

-Steph

Mollie adds such a beautiful fine art quality to each of her photos and captures the couple's personality perfectly! I love getting to work with her!

-carolyn

My favorite part was just how personable and reliable Mollie was. She really went above and beyond and did more than just photography. There was a lot going on that day, but she made sure that we fit in all the photographs on our list.

What's it like to work with me?

I have been photographing weddings and families for over a decade.  What I've come to see is that people are wary of photographers and just want something SIMPLE.
I do things a little differently than other photographers.  Instead of choosing packages full of things you don't necessarily want, I charge one flat fee for the time that I am at your wedding based on the number of hours that you would like.  That fee also includes all of your fully-edited, un-watermarked digital images - yours to download and keep - and a basic album so that you can have the best of both worlds.  You get the digital files you want, plus something tangible from your wedding day.

No bait and switch.  No purchase minimums. No high pressure sales after the fact.

Just your gorgeous photos - stress free.

Most wedding Client invest $3500 for 8 hours
Special rates available for friday, sunday, and weekday weddings.  Inquire for full details.

PORTRAITS $500

The fast paced world we live in today is both a blessing and a curse. When it comes to choosing a photographer to capture your wedding, the options can seem endless - and more than a little overwhelming.

Getting married is a new adventure for most of us. It’s hard to be able to know which things will really be important tomorrow,  next year, or a decade from now.

I was married in the Summer of 2004. At the time my husband and I were young and about to be relocated by the Army. I did the (now) unthinkable and did not hire a photographer for our wedding.

Back then it didn’t seem like a big deal - we always planned on having a “real” wedding later on. Life, however, had other ideas and now more than a decade later I do not have a single photo from our wedding day that I can print larger than 4x6.

Our families, and our spouses in particular, are the biggest source of love and support that we have in this life.

I want your marriage to be “A light for you in dark places, when all others go out.”

Everyone deserves to have a visible reminder of the strength, support, and joy that their marriage provides.

my process (Click to scroll)

     There is really no way around it, unless you are a model having your photograph taken is weird.  As an only child to parents who loved photography I am the subject of thousands of photos so I understand what it feels like to be in front of the lens as well as behind it!
     It doesn't have to be that way.  At your engagement session we will walk around a gorgeous location bathed in dreamy light while we chat and get to know each other.  I will tell you silly stories, guide you into poses (including what to do with your hands) and make you laugh - at me or with me, who's to say?
     You will walk away with a gallery full of beautiful images that are full of love, joy, and laughter before you even remember that this was supposed to feel awkward. You might even have fun.
     Then, when it comes to your wedding day, you will be able to be completely relaxed because we've done all this before.  You can spend the day feeling calm and radiant and enjoy spending time with your friends and family without having to give photography a second thought.

before the wedding

     After you contact me I will send you a welcome magazine with information about my wedding day coverage via email.  Once you have looked over the information, most clients choose to set up a consultation either in person or over the phone depending on your location to build your collection and view album options.  Most clients invest between $2500 and $3500.
     Once we finalize your wedding collection a  signed contract and a retainer are required to hold your wedding date.  I only shoot one wedding per day and popular dates often book a year in advance.
     After your date is secured we will set up a time and location for your engagement session.  This is the fun part!
     About six weeks before your wedding I will send you a questionnaire to fill out.  This will cover your shot list, vendors, wedding day schedule, and important details.  I make sure this is very thorough so that we ensure everything important to you gets captured.  This is also a great time to go over any questions or concerns that you might have for the day of the wedding so we will have plenty of time to iron them out.

during the wedding

     You put a lot of time and effort into choosing every detail of your wedding day.  Lucky for you, I absolutely adore photographing details!  I start the wedding day styling and photographing the bridal details while you sip champagne and get ready.
     Once we get you in your dress you will be whisked away to your first look session and a short portrait session with your spouse to be.  You will take photos with your bridal party and family and then they will surround you as you walk down the aisle.
    The rest of the night will pass in a blur of speeches, food, dancing and cake.  You will dance in your beloved's arms and there will be no one in the world but the two of you.  Before you know it you will be making your grand exit amid kisses and cheers.
     You will laugh and you will wave and everyone you love will wish you good fortune as you begin your new adventures together.

on your wedding day...

back

after the wedding

     A few weeks after you return from your honeymoon you will get an email with a link to your finished gallery of images and your preliminary album design.  
     After you look back on the highlights from your wedding day, get a little teary watching the father daughter dance, and laugh about those epic dance moves one of your friends busted out after a few too many cocktails, we will set up a call to go over your album design.
    I design every album like I would if it were my own wedding.  Nothing can compare to an album for the ability to tell the story of your wedding. Looking through your finished album will feel like you are right there back on that day.
     Your finished album should arrive 4-6 weeks after you finalize your order.  Most of my clients have their albums in hand less than three months after their wedding!

Life is either an adventure or an ordeal, it all depends on your outlook.

When i got engaged I knew I wanted Mollie to take our wedding photographs.  She captured everything on the day of the wedding so beautifully.  When we received our photographs from Mollie it was just like living the wonderful day all over again!  Mollie's personality is infectious and you can tell she loves being part of her client's big day.  When you're working with someone like that - someone with a passion for what she does - you just know the finished product is going to be amazing.  I couldn't have asked for more than she gave us that day.

The wedding photography was an area of high importance to me. We wanted to find someone who not only took good pictures, but seemed like someone we would get along with. We felt that liking the person on the other side of the camera would make the whole process easier and much more enjoyable. Mollie fit the bill. I liked that her pictures weren't over-processed, she made good editorial decisions, and she's obviously talented with natural lighting! Equally important, she was fun to hang out with, easy to talk to, and acted like an experienced professional. I was really impressed with how efficient and decisive she was after walking onto a 40-acre horse farm and meeting us for the first time. She knew exactly where she wanted to go and what to do. She made the whole process clean and simple and fun. Plus, she's a dog person!

Mollie fit the bill."

Our favorite part about the whole thing is that you let us just be ourselves and captured the candid moments. You made us feel like the session was all about us and kept us feeling relaxed the whole time.
We are so pleased with all of our photos and are so thankful that you were able to capture such great moments that we shared. You made us feel so comfortable the whole time and had awesome ideas throughout the whole session to make the pictures turn out amazing!

is that you just let us be ourselves."
