f8 Photo Studios - Raleigh, North Carolina

f8 Photo Studios is THE best! Cara is incredibly talented. She did my engagement and wedding photos. On both days, it was insanely hot outside and somehow she managed to make everyone look amazing. She gets the job done, gets THE picture, and truly knows how to capture the moment. I would recommend her to anyone truly. We couldn't be happier with our pictures and will cherish them forever. Thank you f8!

I cannot say enough great things about F8 Photo Studios! My husband and I were planning our 9/30 wedding in Wake Forest from Boston, where we currently live. Needless to say, I was a little nervous about hiring vendors without being able to meet them in person. I spoke with Cara on the phone after taking a look at the F8 website, and she immediately made me feel at ease. She explained all of my options and walked me through what to expect with wedding photography. After making the decision to move forward with F8, my husband and I met Adrienne, our photographer, for our engagement photos. I immediately knew that Adrienne was the right person for the job. Not only was she one of the nicest people I've ever met, but she was clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about photography. When we got our engagement photos back, I could not wait for our wedding, simply for the pictures! Then, very quickly, our wedding day arrived! Adrienne was with me and my bridesmaids while we got ready, and her assistant was with my husband and his groomsmen. Adrienne knew the best shots and angles for me and my girls. She efficiently got us through pictures before and after the ceremony, and then even indulged me in some one-on-one pictures during the reception. We haven't received our full wedding album yet, but Adrienne sent us a "sneak peek" with a few photos, and I am seriously IN LOVE with them- they are breathtaking! I cannot recommend this company enough!

Cara and her team are simply excellent. Not only are they professional, flexible, and take AMAZING photos, they are personable and hilarious. Cara made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day and we really couldnt have hired a better photographer. I also had a bridal shoot months before our wedding and she directed me through the entire process to make sure the angles were just right! Our wedding pictures were incredible. I recommend her to anyone and everyone who is getting married in the Raleigh area. BOOK THEM!

We're very happy to have had Cara photograph our wedding. We keep looking back at our photos and love how they really capture the beauty of everything and helped make us look great!

Meeting Cara for our engagement photos was great because it gave us an opportunity to see how she worked and be more relaxed on our wedding day since we weren't total strangers. She also is fun and jokes around to make you relax and smile the whole time.

My husband is a photographer himself, so Cara went above and beyond by scouting out our venue the day before and taking some great shots of the beautiful scenery! It wasn't something she had to do but was such a thoughtful way to show she cared. On the day of, she was great and both made everyone feel at ease while also keeping them in line to ensure we stayed on time and got all the photos we wanted. She was good to work with because she took input from us and also made her own suggestions so that we could come to an agreement on what shots we wanted and how things would run to make it all perfect.

To top it all off, the pictures are great. They show emotion, have great color and sharpness, and help to tell the story of our day. But you can see that easily from all her great albums! The photographer is such an important part of your wedding since they will be with you all day and they will capture your memories and what you look back at year after year. Highly recommend Cara and would work with her again in a heartbeat!

I worked with Cara for my October 2019 wedding, and she and her team were fantastic! Cara worked with me to stay within my budget and she was fun and delightful to partner with. Our photographer, Lindsay, made my husband and I feel at ease and helped us work out the jitters and stiffness in our portrait session. Lindsay kept us on track and took beautiful images of our celebration. I am thrilled with how our sneak peak photos turned out and look forward to seeing more. I live in Maine and planned a wedding in Raleigh, NC. Cara and Lindsay made it easy to plan from afar over phone and email.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer! Cara's partner, Adrienne, did our engagement session and wedding day (with Lacy!!) - made taking 100s of pictures FUN, we were laughing the entire time. We've loved looking through our gallery and continuously receive compliments about our incredible pictures! Both Cara and Adrienne were absolutely incredible to work with - made the entire process easy, which is a bride's dream among all the wedding planning! A photographer is one of the biggest decisions throughout planning, if not the biggest, and we are SO happy we chose F8 to be a part of our special day. Thank you!!
