Spring is right around the corner, and that means Spring is right around the corner, and that means wedding season is almost here! 🌸💍

We’ve been looking back through some of our favorite spring wedding moments from years past — soft coastal breezes, blooming florals, golden evening light, and so many joyful “just married” smiles.

There’s something magical about spring weddings here on the coast, and we can’t wait to capture all the beautiful celebrations this season has in store. 

We’re photographing our second wedding of 2026 this weekend! If you’re planning a spring or summer wedding, we’d love to be part of your story…and tell YOUR story in photographs that will last a lifetime and leave you smiling and remembering every time you look at them.

Chris told Sarah they were just going for a sunset Chris told Sarah they were just going for a sunset horseback ride along the beach in Cedar Island… 🐎

What she didn’t know was that he had something else planned.

Halfway through the ride, Chris hopped down in the sand, got down on one knee, and completely surprised her. Between the ocean breeze, their horses nearby, and that golden evening light, it was a pretty unforgettable moment.

And of course… she said yes. 💍

Moments like this are why we love photographing along the Crystal Coast and in Eastern NC.

Would you say yes to a beach proposal like this?

There’s something timeless about the quiet moments There’s something timeless about the quiet moments before a wedding day begins.

The soft light through a window.
A veil being pinned into place.
Lipstick in the mirror.
A deep breath before everything changes.

We love photographing these in-between moments — the anticipation, the nerves, the calm, and the joy all living together in one room. Black and white has a way of letting the emotion speak without distraction.

At Beaufort Photography Co., the getting-ready moments are never just preparation… they’re the first chapter of the wedding story.

Wedding day on the water, salty air, and the sweet Wedding day on the water, salty air, and the sweetest send-off ever. 🌊⚓️

Sarah & Corey’s July 2023 wedding in Beaufort by the Sea was the definition of a Crystal Coast celebration. After a picture-perfect (and raucously fun) day with family and friends along Taylor’s Creek, they climbed aboard their boat and cruised off into their “forever like that.”

It doesn’t get much more Beaufort than that! And it doesn’t get more Beaufort Photography Co. than that!

Here’s to love, salt air, and a lifetime of smooth sailing. ⛵️

There’s something so special about the quiet (and There’s something so special about the quiet (and not-so-quiet 😉) moments before “I do.” The matching PJs, the happy tears, the hallway dance parties, the deep breaths, the best friends gathered on one bed soaking it all in.

These getting-ready moments are where the day truly begins — full of laughter, nerves, hugs, and the kind of joy you can’t recreate.

At Beaufort Photography Co., we believe these memories deserve just as much love as the walk down the aisle. 💍

Here’s to brides, bridesmaids, and the beautiful chaos that kicks off the best day ever.
