About Us
Hello!
A husband & wife high-end wedding photography team with experience in front and behind the camera ready to document your stunning wedding for years to come.
We were in your shoes not too long ago. Shortly after getting married in 2020, we started this business together to help other couples in this process have the best wedding planning and photography experience ever!
If you're reading this, chances are you are a young, modern couple who loves to have fun and is building a life together that you truly enjoy. Are you into traveling, minimalist or modern home decor, pursuing a healthy career path, and obsess over wine and date nights in? SAME! If that's you, but you are overwhelmed in the sea of Destination and/or North Carolina Wedding Photographers available, let's connect and see how we can help you out! And if you are a planner, let's connect too!
Wanna chat about your dreamy wedding vision over a glass of wine and charcuterie? Have wedding planning meetings while sipping cocktails and talking color palettes, florals and photo ideas?
Count us IN!
The couple behind the cameras...
We are Patty & Donny Betts:
Destination Wedding Photographers based in Raleigh, North Carolina.
THE PHOTOGRAPHER:
I’m all about being able to vibe with you so that I'm not a stranger following you around with a camera on your wedding day. You can see me as someone on your team who you can fully trust your memories with. I was once a bride too, so trust me when I say: I get it. I wanna know the vision you have for your wedding, your color palette and decor theme, your florals and the meaning behind all the details. Tell me all the things!! I would love to hear from you and be the one to capture it all!
THE VIDEOGRAPHER:
I live to create amazing, cinematic and unique films that tell your unique story. I can proudly say there aren't many NC wedding videographers that have the same style as mine or the same approach. So if you are looking for a wedding videographer that will take your wedding film to another level, let's chat!
I would love to hear from you and be a part of your special day!

adventure over tradition
There's nothing wrong with tradition. In fact, we love traditional weddings. However, if the worries of doing traditional practices are keeping you from experiencing the joy of the moment, we don't recommend going the traditional route. We would rather you have fun, feel at ease, and enjoy the day. Which is why even tho we are Raleigh wedding photographers and videographers, we'll travel anywhere for love!

Your story is what will make your wedding day the best day ever. Your story is what people will remember. It's not about how fancy or "put-together" your it is. It's about whether or not you're enjoying your love freely & completely; not worrying about the opinions or critiques of others. As your North Carolina wedding photographers and videographers, we'll always encourage you to be yourself, unapologetically!
