About me
I’m Keirsten and my passion is documenting your special day in a way that truly reflects you .
I'm so glad you're here! I've put immense love and energy into creating a website that reflects my photography style—a delightful fusion of boho and modern aesthetics with a touch of my own personality .
As a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in charming Wilmington, North Carolina, I'm ready to capture your special moments wherever they unfold. Not local to Wilmington, NC? Don’t worry, I LOVE to travel!
Let's be honest, being in front of a camera can be intimidating. Ironically, I can relate because I'm not a fan of having my own photo taken. This unique understanding of the nerves involved allows me to approach my work with a gentle touch, ensuring you feel at ease and showcasing your best angles.
When it comes to weddings, months, if not years, of planning go into creating a truly memorable day. Your heart and soul have been poured into every detail, and you deserve a photographer you can wholeheartedly trust.
Someone who not only vibes with you but also makes you feel comfortable and confident.
And that's where I come in.
With my expertise, I know when to provide guidance and direction, ensuring you look absolutely stunning. Equally important, I understand the value of stepping back and discreetly capturing those extraordinary moments that often go unnoticed. These are the moments you might not have even considered during the planning process—subtle and unique to you, yet profoundly meaningful. Rest assured, I will document every aspect and then some, preserving memories that will exceed your expectations.
For modern-day lovers
At South End Photography, capturing weddings and elopements goes beyond simply taking beautiful photos—it's about preserving your day with care and artistry. I ensure that you can immerse yourself fully in the moment, while I work seamlessly in the background. My dual Nikon D850 cameras, equipped with high-speed flashes and backup systems, allow me to adapt to all lighting conditions and guarantee the safety of your images. From extra memory cards to reliable backup strategies, every detail is carefully considered to ensure no moment is missed.
Within 72 hours, you'll receive sneak peeks to share right away, and your final images are delivered in a personalized, high-resolution gallery. I provide a minimum of 50 photos per hour, with no cap on the total, and you'll have full print rights to relive your day in stunning quality. My process is designed to give you peace of mind, so you can enjoy your wedding while I create a timeless collection of memories.
Ready to create timeless memories ?
To start the booking process, simply click the button below and share details like your wedding location, event size, and the package you're interested in. If you're local to Wilmington, NC, we can meet in person for coffee to discuss your plans, though virtual options like a phone call or Zoom are always available for those farther away. My goal is to ensure you feel comfortable and have all your questions answered before booking.
Once we've finalized the details, a 30% deposit is required to secure your date, with the remaining balance due one month before the wedding. About 3-4 months prior, I’ll send a Google Doc where you can outline your shot list and timeline. On your big day, I'll have both printed and digital versions to make sure we capture everything. I'm here to assist with any questions or vendor recommendations, and sunset photos are always a favorite, creating unforgettable memories from your wedding.
