Here's our latest work and studio news.

Our May Styled shoot at Wrightsville Beach with Elizabeth’s Events was published yesterday on the Cake & Lace Blog! I’m super excited about this of course so I needed to write my own little piece about it! We haven’t been sharing much of this styled shoot in hopes that it would get picked up somewhere, […]

What’s better than being featured on Borrowed & Blue once? Being featured TWICE! Amanda & Jason’s beautiful WRAL Azalea Gardens wedding was also a featured on Borrowed & Blue in May. We just couldn’t share about it until now, or the new name of our brand would be seen before it was ready! 🙂 For […]

Back in May when we were still in the process of our rebrand, Sarah & Eric’s Holden Beach Wedding was featured on Borrowed & Blue! It’s our first time being featured on this amazing wedding blog. We promise we will get around to posting a blog of their wedding on this site, but until then, head […]

AG1 Photography is now Amy and Archer Photography. As you may or may not know, AG1 Photography started back in 2011 right after I graduated from Ithaca College.

Amanda & Jason’s beautiful and budget friendly WRAL Azalea Gardens wedding was my first wedding of 2017! This wedding was the PERFECT way to break into wedding season! First of all, you could not have asked for more perfect weather! It was sunny and warm without being too hot and humid. The garden was in […]

Last Saturday afternoon I spent some time with my friend Amanda and her daughter Emma while they baked some cookies! I snapped some photos of the cuteness, and I am so excited to share the results with you all!

A few months ago I met with Sarah and her mom at a Panera in North Raleigh to discuss potentially capturing Sarah’s upcoming wedding to Eric. Whenever I do one of these meetings, one of the first things I ask is the story of how he proposed. I was in for quite the surprise when […]
