Raleigh Wedding Photographers
and so much more than weddings.
Raleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill
We make photographs that feel like you.
Fancy This Photography is a team of editorial photographers based in the Triangle. For thirteen years we have shown up for weddings, families, headshots, and brands across Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, and anywhere else the work takes us. Warm, true to life, and never stiff.
What we do
Pick your moment.
Who we are
We're so glad you're here.
We're Nikki, Amanda, and Sarah. For the first chapter of Fancy This, it was just Nikki and her camera. Around 2020 we grew into a team, and thirteen years in, the three of us still shoot the same way: warm, honest, a little editorial, and never stiff.
We photograph weddings, families, and corporate work all over North Carolina, not just here in the Triangle. Nikki is our family photographer, and she shoots weddings and corporate events too. Amanda and Sarah shoot weddings and events.
Whichever of us you end up with, you're trusting a team that actually knows each other, not a random name off a roster. Same warm, editorial eye, same standard, every single time.

What our clients say
Kind words from people we love.
"Given the snow on our wedding day, Nikki and Sarah went above and beyond to make sure our photos happened. They booked a hotel downtown so they were safe and able to do the work. Their talent and the snow made our photos so magical."
"Nikki is truly an artist and magician. Without fail, our toddler has been a hot mess every time, yet she blows us away with every album. You'd barely even know there was a terrible two year old in the mix!"
"Amanda came out to three of our clinics and photographed 15 of our providers. The entire process was incredibly organized and time-efficient, and she made each session stress-free for our team. The final headshots look amazing."
Frequently Asked Questions
-
We are based in Raleigh and photograph weddings throughout the Triangle, including Durham, Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and Hillsborough. We also travel regularly throughout North Carolina and beyond for destination weddings and elopements.
-
That depends on your package. Many of our weddings include two photographers, which allows us to capture more of the day simultaneously. We will talk through what makes the most sense for your wedding during your consultation.
-
Yes, and we genuinely love them. An engagement session is a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera before your wedding day, and the images make for beautiful save-the-dates. Sessions are about 1.5 hours and you are welcome to choose the location and bring multiple outfits.
-
Fancy This Photography has been in business for 13 years. Over that time we have photographed hundreds of weddings across North Carolina and built a team of photographers who share the same approach to the work: warm, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in the couples we photograph.
We are the kind of photographers who have been doing this long enough to know exactly who we are, what we do well, and why it matters. Our reputation was built slowly and on purpose, through real weddings, real relationships, and work we are proud of.
-
We will go over the full delivery timeline during your consultation, but we are known for being prompt. Most couples receive a sneak peek within days of the wedding and their full gallery well within the promised window.
-
The easiest first step is scheduling a free consult. We will learn more about your wedding, answer any questions you have, and make sure we are the right fit for each other. From there, your date is secured with a signed contract and retainer.
