Emma & Cam’s Intimate Little Herb House Wedding in Raleigh, North Carolina

I photographed Emma and Cam’s engagement session last year, and from the very beginning, it felt easy. They are the kind of couple who are immediately warm, thoughtful, and genuine.

Their wedding day at The Little Herb House in Raleigh, North Carolina reflected that same energy: unforced, intentional, and grounded in what mattered most to them.

A Quiet, Light-Filled Start to the Day

Emma got ready with her bridesmaids just at the edge of the forest, tucked beside the pond on the property. The morning light filtered through the trees, casting a soft golden glow over everything..

There was tons of laughter, smiles on everyone’s faces, and a sense of ease as Emma slipped into her dress. It felt intimate in the truest sense — present, slow, and personal.

On the other side of the property, Cam got ready with his groomsmen. A few beers were shared, jokes were made, and the nervous energy that sometimes comes with a wedding morning gave way to excitement and connection.

A Ceremony That Felt Honest and Real

The ceremony was short, emotional, and full of meaning. Emma and Cam read vows they had written themselves — words that were thoughtful, sincere, and deeply personal. There wasn’t a dry eye among their family and friends.

What stood out most was how present everyone was. No distractions. No rush. Just two people choosing each other, surrounded by the people who love them most.

An Afternoon of Intentional Moments

The rest of the day unfolded gently, filled with quiet conversations, laughter, and small moments that mattered. Emma and Cam spent time with close family and friends, soaking in the day rather than rushing through it.

Every detail felt intentional without feeling overdone — a reflection of who they are. It was a wedding rooted in connection, not performance.
