For the wild & free-spirited lovers wanting to capture the messy, in between moments.

adventure is whatever you want it to be

the investment

Whether you choose to have an elopement or to have an intimate wedding, your big day is meant to be a whole experience, not just a photoshoot. 

I'm a huge believer in celebrating your marriage whether that's saying your vows on the cliffs of Ireland or in your backyard. You can take a hike wearing your wedding dress and favorite hiking boots. Or you don't have to hike at all. You can instead arrange a lakeside ceremony and picnic. You could rent out a brewery and celebrate with all your loved ones. 

No matter where you choose to go and what you choose to do, "epic" locations or trails don't have to be included. Adventure does NOT equal hiking or mountains. Adventure is whatever you want it to be.

what happens when you book me:

Immediately after booking, you will receive an Elopement Guide or Wedding Guide where I share ALL of my tips to help you plan your dream day.

Ideas and Research-- I'll give you all the location ideas if you don't know where to get married or know what to do on your wedding day. I'll also research locations and permits to make sure we're good to go for your day.

Timeline Planning-- I'll help plan every detail you need help with. Like how long a hike will take when you include time for photos. Or how long a first look will last. Or to make sure to have time for sunset portraits. I'll think of everything you want to include within your day and create a timeline to bring your wedding day to life.

Vendor Recommendations-- If you want flowers, a catered picnic on the beach, or a helicopter pilot, I got you. I'll give you a list of local vendors for the area you're getting married at.

You see a stranger’s puppy & it takes everything in you not to run up & cuddle it.

Your dress gets dirt on it, and you shrug.

You think ice cream & wine is always an acceptable dinner option. Always.

You LIVE for the feeling of sunshine on your skin & wind in your hair.

You’re already screaming YASSSS WHERE DO I BOOK YOU?

"Oh. My. GOODNESS. We are IN LOVE with these photos!! I cannot even begin to thank you for wonderfully capturing the magic of our wedding day!! I am so so happy we were able to work with you as our photographer!! You helped make the wedding so special and stress-free knowing that we didn't have to worry about pictures. I am so happy that we forever have these special moments captured. They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL." -Lyndsey and Gabe

"we didn't have
to worry
about pictures"

I'm based out of Jacksonville, North Carolina (near Wilmington). But I travel anywhere you want your photos taken at!

Where are you located?

You can expect to receive 50-75 final hand-edited images per hour of coverage!

How Many Images Are Included?

Nope! I don't send any un-edited or RAW files!
Most of the magic happens during the editing process, so without that step your photos are only halfway done.

Do You Give Out Unedited Photos?

For weddings/elopements, I require a 50% deposit to hold your date. The remaining fee is due four weeks before your wedding or elopement.
For sessions, I require a $100 deposit to hold your date. The remaining fee is due one week before your session. I'm willing to help you figure out a payment plan if you need, just let me know.

How Does Payment Work?

To be considered officially booked, you must sign a contract and pay your deposit. Reach out to me on my contact form and I can send these over to you from there!

How Do I Book You?

YES 100%! Most people feel that way in front of the camera, so firstly, know you're not alone! I shoot people by giving prompts in attempts of catching you more natural looking, rather than awkward posing, and simply directing you when needed. Just remember, it is MY job to make you look good! You just have to show up and be excited to capture these memories, and leave the rest up to me.

My partner and I are awkward in front of the camera, can you still make us look good?

Let me know ASAP if you want to cancel or reschedule (at least 48 hours before your date), and I'll send you a form to fill out confirming this. I'm happy to reschedule with another date that works within my schedule!

What If We Cancel/Reschedule Our Date?

I've had a camera in my hand since I was 8 years old. I've been a professional photographer since 2018.

How Long Have You Been A Photographer?

Absolutely not! I do make a few small edits on things that are temporary (such as acne, rashes, bruises, people in the background, etc.), but I do not do any other changes since that does not properly reflect yourself and your season of life in those photos.

Will You Photoshop Us?

Unless it's dangerous conditions, the photoshoot is still on! Don't let a little bit of rain deter you from not getting some magical photos because it can still happen, I promise!! If it's dangerous out (i.e. thunderstorm, etc.), we can reschedule at no additional cost.

What Happens If The Weather Is Bad?

Once you book me, I'll send out an Outfit Guide with some tips and tricks, some inspo pics, & a Pinterest link. You can also send me pics of your options and I can help you out. Ultimately, wear something you're comfortable and confident in though!

What Do We Wear To Our Photoshoot?

Occasionally I might offer a discount posted on my Instagram or Instagram story @emilymorganphotos_. This  happens very rarely though.

Do You Offer Discounts?

For sessions, you'll get your photos back in 2-3 weeks.
For weddings and elopements, you'll get your photos back in 6-8 weeks

What Is Your Turnaround time?

If you're wanting a destination wedding/elopement/session, I will research an estimated cost and send you a flat fee that will cover my hotel room, flights/gas money, and food that I will book myself.

How Do Travel Expenses Work?

When you book me, I can help offer ideas, research locations, 
give you timeline planning and vendor recommendations., but overall I do not book anything or anyone for your big day

Do You Help In The Planning Process?

Yes I do!! Reach out to me to see more of my photos and pricing regarding seniors, families, events, etc.

Do You Photograph Seniors, families, Etc.?
