North Carolina Wedding Photographer Serving the Carolinas, Low Country, and Beyond
Timeless imagery for the romantics and tender-hearted
Preserve your memories
Your wedding day goes by in the blink of an eye. Let's make sure your photographs stand the test of time.
You're getting married!
You want bright and cheerful imagery to remember your wedding day from…
Your heart does a pitter-patter when it sees photos of those pretty pink blooms that pop against the vibrant greenery and your white dress. Visions of you and your groom running hand-in-hand during sunset portraits puts a grin on your face. And oh, you cannot wait to toss on a pair of heart-shaped sunnies and dance your heart out on the checkered dance floor.
You are as equally excited to celebrate with your friends and family as you are to marry your best friend…
Your people mean the world to you. They’ve been there with you from day one and their support is everything. This day isn’t just about showcasing pretty things, it’s about sharing this joy with all your favorite people. It’s a party for them, too, and you can’t wait to celebrate with them.
You’ve discovered a whole bunch of talented wedding photographers but now you’re not sure how you’ll possibly choose “The One”...
Charlotte is blessed with incredible photographers - many of whom I consider wonderful friends! It’s important that you find the right fit for you. Someone who will guide you every step of the way, will get you comfortable in front of the camera, and will be an honorary bridesmaid taking care of you on your wedding day.
When choosing the perfect photographer for your wedding, you want someone with both the professional and personal photography experiences that will influence how your day is captured. My own wedding photographs are lovingly displayed all throughout our home and I truly understand how much you will cherish each memory captured from your day. I let no detail go unnoticed, from the handpicked décor, to grandma's lace stitched into your dress, to that little smirk you two exchange with each other once you've made the walk down the aisle. Melissa Mayrie Brides love having these sentimental details documented just as much as they get excited for their beautiful portraits and epic dance floor paparazzi moments. Your wedding day is so important to your family's story and, by extension, so are your photos. One day you'll be reminiscing about how it all started and that's when you'll pull out the album and start showing how it all unfolded...

Albums & Artwork
Wedding planning is such an exciting time but I also know it can become overwhelming with all the decisions you need to make. Once you’ve decided you’re interested in working together, reach out so we can connect! We’ll chat about your vision for the day, answer any questions you may have, and make sure we’re a great fit!
I want to hear about all the details!
01. Let's Connect!
Once your wedding date is officially booked, I'll send over the MMW Bridal Guide which includes helpful information for your engagement and bridal sessions, additional wedding vendor recommendations, wedding day guide, a sample timeline, and more! My goal is to make your wedding planning process as easy as possible!
Better add me to the guest list!
02. Celebrate!
A complimentary engagement session is included in all wedding experiences. It’s the perfect opportunity to help you get comfortable in front of the camera ahead of your wedding day and it also allows us to get to know each other better. Make it a fun date night by jetting off to a romantic dinner afterwards, you're already dressed up after all!
Time to get comfortable!
03. Engagement Session
Many MMW Brides choose to have a bridal session so they can take their full bridal look on a test run. I mean, when else will you have an excuse to get glammed up and show off your stunning wedding dress, aside from the wedding day itself? Grab your favorite girls, a bottle of bubbly, and make a day of it. You'll create some core memories together as you build up the anticipation to your big day. You won't regret doing it, I promise.
Let's channel our inner Carrie Bradshaw...
04. Bridal Session
There's a good chance that you have never felt more beautiful than you do in these days leading up to your wedding. You've also given so much of your time and energy into the planning process. Why not treat yourself to a day celebrating your beauty. A sweet and intimate bridal boudoir session is just the cherry on top to document this season of life.
A little gift to yourself ...and your future husband!
05. Bridal Boudoir
We’ll stay in touch throughout the planning process so that I’m aware of all the details for your wedding day. Together with your planner, we’ll be sure to create the perfect timeline so that your day is captured just right. From planning a first look with dad to making your family portrait list, I’ll know all of your must-haves going into the day so you can sit back and relax.
Let's go over all the details...
06. Wedding Prep
This is the day of a new beginning as husband and wife. You've put in so much love and energy planning your celebration, now it’s time to simply be in the moment so you can enjoy every second of it! Leave it to me to capture the emotions, details, and stories that unfold throughout your special day.
It's time to walk down that aisle, girl!
