Thanks for visiting. I’m Rebecca and I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in Durham, North Carolina.
There is nothing gimmicky here. There are no radical textures, no painting, nothing that will go out of fashion in ten years.
Just real photography. Of real people.
Look around. Peruse my portfolio. If you like my style and are interested in having me shoot your super fun wedding, family, newborn photos or boudoir session- click contact. I would LOVE to meet you….

Omi finally lost that top tooth. It’s been all wiggly and gross for weeks. She’s thrilled that it’s finally out and we’re thrilled to listen to her talk with that cute little lisp. It’s adorable!!! And since all she does is talk, non-stop, it makes it that much more enjoyable. Her nickname is Filibuster Omi.

There weren’t many blooms yet. The flowers are just now starting to be awoken. Spring is lurking around the corner and I cannot wait.

Bodhi has gotten big over the last few months. Huge. He’s over 50 pounds now and a big huge chicken. He’s a dog with phobias. We’re trying to work on them.
Today, I went scoping out locations for couple sessions. I thought this would be a good way to give the dog a walk, so I brought him with me. First, he’s scared of the car. He has been since we brought him home from the pound. He cried the whole way. Today, he pulled himself out of his collar and made a break for it as soon as he realized we were headed for the car. Me neighbor helped me catch him. Then we went to Brightleaf Square. I wandered into shops, but didn’t stay long because I could hear him whimpering outside. When I walked back out, it was as if he hadn’t seen me in months… and I had rescued him from a gulag. Then we headed over to Old West Durham. I went in and out of shops, again looking for a good spot for sessions. He cowered in the street, he crawled, he had his tail between his legs every time a motorcycle or a loud car went by. So we went over to the pet store and I did my best to spoil him, with cow tails, rawhide, and pig feet. He jumped into the car (first time ever!!!), he was so excited to go home. He needed love, so we cuddled, he got pet, and he got his portrait taken, because that is how I love.
I love you dog.

So for years now I’ve been wanting to so very badly to shoot a bohemian style wedding. It’s never come up, probably because one has never been in my portfolio. This is something that I need to remedy. So, I’m setting up a little contest. I’d like to give one day of wedding photography away. They will have to submit a story (it can be short) about them, as people and as a couple, and will have to submit a mood board. If you would like to enter, please submit your mood board to becciamesphoto<at>gmail<dot>com by March 1, 2012. Of course, travel fees may apply, and all that….
You can see my mood boards, to give you an idea of my ideas on my pinterest page.

I won the Bride’s Choice Award for 2012. This puts me in with the top 5% of wedding photographer’s nationwide. How ridiculously exciting!
I’d love to give a big old shout out to all my clients, past and present for making this possible. Thanks, you are the very best and the reason why the photographs are so great.
