A little more about Mindy: We are so excited you have taken a moment to find a bit more about us. I started my photography journey in 2004 when I studied photography in Florence, Italy at the Santa Reparata International School of Art. I received my undergraduate degree in Fine Arts and then went on to get my Master of Arts in Photography from the University of South Carolina. I have been shooting weddings since 2007. In 2008 I met my now husband (Fernando) in Costa Rica. I spent half of each year of 2010-2013 shooting destination weddings all over Costa Rica with him. We got married in 2013 here in North Carolina and moved our business back here. We currently reside in the Pinehurst, NC area but shoot weddings all over NC and SC. Someone once told me -- your work is like you-- strong and vibrant. I like to capture and preserve big, strong moments that speak without words. Photos that make you understand the feeling of that exact time and place. Maybe you can't even exactly describe it-- but you feel it. After all, isn't that what it's all about-- preserving a special moment, a feeling. I am a mother of two beautiful boys - Ezra and Ethan. When I am not working, you can find me with them, laughing, playing and many times cleaning up their messes and I wouldn't have it any other way. I am passionate about what I do and I love being able to capture a beautiful day that you can relive over and over through photographs. I was trained shooting film photography where you are supposed to really focus on the moment you are shooting, not just taking a million shots and hoping something is good but really capturing something with meaning. When I'm not with my boys, I like to binge watch tv shows so feel free to tell me something you love to watch. I'm always looking for something new! =) I am the manager of New Morning so I am also the person you will be emailing with and asking questions to if you are considering booking. I look forward to talking to you and finding out more about how we can capture your magical day through photo or video.

A little more about Fernando: I started my photography and videography journey working in my home country of Costa Rica back in 2010. In Costa Rica we shoot weddings year-round so I got experience shooting many weddings every month. I learned photography under a very talented photographer - Toh Gouttenoire in Costa Rica. Working with him I shot many weddings and real estate shoots. I have shot all kinds of weddings in many different beautiful locations. The photography eventually evolved to doing videography as well. I love doing both. Each tell the story slightly differently but many of the same technically principals apply, making it easy to crossover. Mindy and I got married in September 2013 and I moved here to be with her and we finally were able to combine our work into 1 business. A lot of people love seeing photos and video I shoot with my drone. I can get unique photos and even 4K overhead video. In my spare time I enjoy working on everything photography and videography, cars, surfing, working out, Costa Rica, Mindy and my two sons Ezra and Ethan. I woud love to capture your big day whether it be via photography or videography. It doesn't matter if we are shooting your wedding on the beach, in the city, or in the country, we try to shoot each wedding with a nice mix of shots you desire combined with our artistic style. **Tambien como Fernando es de Costa Rica -- Hablamos Español.
