Happy Christmas from Beaufort Photography Co.

By Beaufort Photography Co | December 24, 2015

Happy Christmas from Beaufort Photography Co. It’s Christmas Eve. And though we’re some two thousand years removed from the actual event that prompts our celebration each December, this really is the most wonderful time of the year. “There will be parties for hosting, marshmallows for roasting, and caroling out in the snow.” Actually, on the…

💍 She said yes... and then they ran straight into 💍 She said yes... and then they ran straight into the ocean. 🌊

Alex surprised Raven with a proposal, and we got to capture their engagement photos - barefoot in the surf, laughing until their faces hurt, and soaking up every second of their newly engaged chapter together.

These are the moments we live for at Beaufort Photography Co...memories that feel as good years from now as they do today.

Congratulations, Raven & Alex…so happy for you ❤️

✨ Planning a surprise proposal, engagement session, or couples photos on the Crystal Coast? We’d love to help tell your story.
The day after they said “I do,” they traded weddin The day after they said “I do,” they traded wedding plans for sandy toes, salty air, and the people who matter most.

The Graham family made the trip from Virginia to the Crystal Coast for a beach getaway that became something even sweeter - a celebration of a brand-new marriage wrapped inside a family vacation. 

No timelines. No formalities. Just laughter carried by the ocean breeze, little footprints in the sand, and the kind of memories that feel bigger years later than they do in the moment.

These are the photos that will live on refrigerators, in hallway frames, and in stories told long after the sunscreen fades.

Hidden away in a charming little garden in Beaufort, Drew led Sarah into what she thought was an ordinary afternoon. And it became the beginning of their next chapter together.

Capturing proposals like this is one of my favorite parts of being a Crystal Coast photographer in northeastern NC.

There’s something special about documenting real moments in beautiful places, where every corner seems made for love stories.

Congratulations, Drew & Sarah! Thank you for letting Beaufort Photography Co. be part of your amazing day.

The wind, the boats, the water, and one unforgettable “yes.” Moments like these are why we love documenting love stories along the Crystal Coast. Congratulations, Josh & McKenzie - your forever starts here. 🤍

Some sessions you just wish you could hit pause on Some sessions you just wish you could hit pause on ❤️

I’ve had so much fun photographing the Braxton family the past couple of years, and this sunset session in Emerald Isle was one of those evenings you wish could have lasted forever.

The kids, the beach, the pier, the ocean, that golden evening light…and plenty of those little in-between moments that end up being some of my favorite photographs.

There’s something pretty special about watching a family grow in front of your camera year after year. These are the memories you don’t get back — the sandy feet, windblown hair, big smiles, and everyone just being together.

Emerald Isle family photography at its best. 🌊☀️

So grateful the Braxtons keep letting me be a small part of their family memories. Until next year… ❤️

Some wedding days are just plain fun. Sheridan & K Some wedding days are just plain fun. Sheridan & Kenneth’s was one of those days. ❤️

From the beautiful Catholic church ceremony to the absolute *chaos - in the best possible way - at Cherry Point’s Hancock Lodge, their crew knew how to celebrate.

And these two? The sweetest. Seriously. Sheridan and Kenneth are the kind of couple you can’t help but love, and then you meet their family and friends and think, yep…now I get it. 

There was so much laughter and a whole lot of people who were genuinely thrilled to be there celebrating these two. The reception was simply a BLAST. And yes, we may have gotten a little creative with the bridal party photos. 😂

I loved this wedding. I loved this couple. I loved their people. And as I’m about to hit “send” on their gallery, I’m still smiling ❤️

Sheridan & Kenneth — thank you for letting us be part of your ridiculously fun and simply gorgeous day.
