💍 Years from now, you should be able to look back on your wedding photos and smile at all those organic and fleeting moments that you may miss on the day of - like the look of pride on your grandma's face, the loving glances that you and your partner will sneak to each other throughout the day, and the bursts of laughter from your friends during embarrassing toasts. 😂
My name is Jessica (aka Wayfaring Wanderer) and I'm a Boone NC Wedding & Elopement Photographer based in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains that is all about documenting your adventurous love stories. I'm known for capturing the spirit of the folks I photograph—the expressions, gestures, and details that are outward expressions of our innermost selves.
I love capturing couples who love adventuring together, taco nights, family + friends, and exploring the beautiful High Country. I specialize in photographing destination weddings here in the mountains of Boone, Blowing Rock, & Banner Elk, NC. I would love to help capture the details of your day in an authentic, fun, & relaxed way.

I would HIGHLY recommend you to anyone who is looking for a photographer. Thanks for everything, you and your husband were both awesome." - BLAKE
