I'm Ahanna Nicole, your favorite eye behind the lens...
Here's a little about ya girl!
Who I'm For?
I’m for the ones who value real moments over perfect poses.
For couples deeply in love, families growing through every season, and people who want photos that feel like them — honest, emotional, and timeless.
If you want images that tell your story instead of forcing you into one, you’re in the right place.
How Sessions Feel
My sessions are laid-back, guided, and intentional.
I’ll direct you when needed so you never feel awkward, but I also give space for the in-between moments — the laughs, the quiet connections, the real stuff.
You don’t need to know how to pose.
You just show up as you are, and I’ll take care of the rest.
My Style
My style is warm, bold, and story-driven.
I’m drawn to natural light, rich tones, and images that carry emotion — not trends that fade.
I blend gently guided poses with natural movement so your photos feel authentic, not stiff. Every gallery is edited with care to reflect a moody yet timeless look that holds meaning long after the moment passes.
My Values
Connection comes first — always.
I value trust, clear communication, and creating a comfortable experience from inquiry to delivery.
I believe your photos should feel like home when you look back on them — something you can return to and feel again, not just see.
Your story matters, and I treat it that way.
The Eye Behind The Lens
I’m a North Carolina–based photographer with over 8 years behind the camera and 4 years specializing in weddings. With a background in accounting and business, I bring both creativity and structure to every experience — ensuring your day is not only beautifully captured, but thoughtfully planned. When I’m not photographing love stories, I work full time outside of photography, which has shaped my work ethic, reliability, and attention to detail. I’m both a traveler and a homebody at heart, drawn to meaningful moments wherever they unfold. Known for my red hair and bold presence, I bring a calm yet fierce energy to documenting stories that deserve to be felt, not just seen.
