DIGITAL+FILM
PHOTO + VIDEO TEAM IN WNC
SOLI DEO GLORIA
Caroline Ellis Photography is a wedding and elopement digital & film photographer & videographer team rooted in the mountains of Western North Carolina.
I serve real couples who believe their wedding isn’t a performance—it’s a promise. The kind of people who want to relive the way the day felt—in every glance, every held hand, every sacred, joy-filled breath.
Whether you’re exchanging vows on a misty mountain overlook in the heart of the North Carolina Mountains, dancing under string lights with your closest people, or laughing through unexpected rain and champagne spills—I’m there.
My work is about more than beautiful images. It’s about an eternal legacy—photos your grandchildren will hold one day, seeing the depth of your love in every frame.
Wedding photography based in Western North Carolina—but always ready to follow your story wherever it leads.
RAW, TIMELESS, ARTFUL IMAGES THAT FEEL LIKE HOME
THE
EXPERIENCE
I’M YOUR WNC ELOPEMENT AND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER.
Together, we’ll focus on connection and experience over chasing perfection. I’ll guide you through portraits that feel effortless and real—no awkward posing here. And during the moments that matter most—the emotional, intimate, and just-plain-magical ones—I’ll quietly fade into the background, letting everything unfold naturally.
Flipping through your gallery will feel like watching your own love story play out on film. Each candid, thoughtful moment leads seamlessly into the next, capturing the rhythm, the laughter, the quiet glances, and all the little details that make your day uniquely yours.

From start to finish, she was absolutely incredible. Her photos are nothing short of breathtaking—each one captured the emotion, beauty, and joy of the day in such a unique and special way. We’ve received so many compliments on how stunning the photos are, and they truly exceeded our expectations.
Aside from her amazing talent, she was a joy to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. Wedding planning can be stressful, but she made everything so much easier with her calm demeanor and professionalism. She was always responsive, quick to offer guidance, and gave us great advice on how to organize the day to ensure we got the best shots.
