In addition, she’s extremely timely and has open communication through the entire wedding planning process- not to mention she’s extremely easy to work with and worked seamlessly with all of our wedding vendors. I am so grateful she was available for our big day and we appreciate the priceless memories she created for decades to come!"

"I am coming back to edit my review because we just had our wedding and holy moly was Helen fantastic. She was professional and captured every special moment. Her directions and suggestions were perfect. She took photos of moments that we would have never even thought of. She did an excellent job of directing a large wedding party with grace and confidence. Everywhere I looked, Helen was there, capturing every single detail. Her vision and artistic eye cannot be matched. Highly recommend! We received sample pics the very next morning and I received comment after comment about how beautiful and fantastic they were. You NEED this girl at your wedding.
Helen made us feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot. She gave us perfect directions for her vision, especially for a couple that wasn't sure how to "pose," and she was a blast to work with. Helen is a natural; her professionalism and grace made us feel natural and at ease. Her pictures are absolutely stunning, we were over the moon with excitement when we received our sneak peek. Her talent radiates in a single photo; they were everything we wanted and more. I would recommend Helen to anyone and everyone! We can't wait for her to shoot our wedding!"

"Helen flew from North Carolina to Mississippi just for our wedding.
She fit in so well with all our friends and family.
We didn't want to spend too much time taking photos the day of the wedding
and Helen made it all so quick and painless while
still getting all the photos we could ask for.
She so beautifully captured our special day.
Helen is a joy to work with and is such a sweet, dear person."

"I had the honor of having Helen as my photographer at my wedding on May 29, and seriously can't sing her praises enough. She has an amazing eye, and I encourage anyone who hires her to give her full creative control. She knows what she's doing, and you won't be disappointed! Everyone at our wedding was impressed with her sweetness and professionalism. Helen, thank you so much again!"

"I am beyond amazed and grateful for the service that we received from Helen.
Our wedding was during the week that Hurricane Matthew hit the OBX in October 2016.
Not only was Helen diligent about keeping up communication with me,
she was willing to move our wedding to the day before our scheduled date if needed!
Luckily it didn't come down to that and we had the wedding during the planned day,
however just knowing that she would be willing to move our wedding to the day
before with 1 day warning provided relief that this bride in meltdown mode desperately needed. Helen was warm and friendly and helped our families feel at ease during the necessary awkward family photos and she has a gift when it comes to catching candid moments. Her bubbly personality is infectious and helps you feel more relaxed during such a hectic day. Also, she was able to keep her cool and was nothing but professional even though a hurricane was barreling down on her town just 12 short hours after our reception ended. I plan on using her services for beach maternity and family photographs in the future
and I would ABSOLUTELY recommend her to future OBX brides."

"I had the pleasure of watching her work with my daughter for her engagement pictures, since there was a six year old child and a Bernese Mountain dog that were involved. She was so amazing working with the all of them. The dog wanted to do his own thing sometimes and she just worked it in. Can't wait to see all the final pictures and looking forward to her handling my daughters wedding. She was truly a professional and a wonderful person."
