Hi I am Meg! A Wedding and lifestyle family photographer based in Wilmington North Carolina. With a passion for storytelling and a love for golden hour by the sea, I create timeless images of couples and families just being themselves - Splashing in the waves, building sandcastles, promising forever, cutting cake, and capturing little giggles in the salty breeze. I am here to capture your real, unscripted moments.
With a passion for emotion-filled photography and nostalgic film tones, Meg creates galleries that feel both modern and classic — filled with authentic connection, beautiful light, and meaningful details. Serving Wilmington, NC and surrounding areas including Figure Eight Island, Topsail Island, Surf City, Carolina Beach, and the greater Cape Fear region, Meg Laffey Photography is trusted by couples and families who value both artistry and heart.
Looking for a Wilmington wedding photographer who offers a film look with true-to-life colors and a natural, documentary approach? Let’s create something timeless together.

"When it came time for wedding weekend, Meg captured both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding day, and we cannot put into words how beautiful, magical, and special her pictures are. Our gallery is a true work of art and captured our weekend in all its raw emotion and authentic love beyond what we could have ever imagined. Not only was she professional, friendly, and had a great sense of humor with our wedding guests, but she was also able to capture every little moment...."

"if I could give Meg 6 stars instead of 5, I would! I first fell in love with her style through Instagram a while before I was even engaged, and I knew that when the time came, hers was the work I wanted to invest in. And though I always knew we'd end up with our dream engagement and wedding pictures, I truly didn't expect to fall in love with Meg as a person and as a professional! She is caring, creative, energetic, and so FUN to work with as an artist."

"Meg is our wedding photographer and the second we met her we fell in love with her and her work. She is the kindest, most talented person to work with. She immediately made us feel comfortable and even gave us sneak peaks of our pictures the same day!! I will recommend her 1000x over and over."

"Meg was one of the first vendors we booked for our wedding and the day would not have been the same without her. She took the time to learn about us as a couple and truly captured the perfect moments from our day. She was an absolute dream to work with & made the day so fun for us. Having her with us throughout the wedding day felt like having an old friend along for the ride."

I try to stay local to eastern NC as much as I can, but will travel frequently throughout NC and beyond!

YES! I have photographed many LGBTQIA+ weddings and priortize my editing to be flattering on all skin types so my business is to open to all kinds of love.
