Emily Mitton Photography

Description

Hi, friend!

I’m Emily, lover of colorful charcuterie boards, business books, subtropical weather and a challenging Peloton ride. I love a fresh sunrise, a just-released podcast episode and the way the ocean waves lap onto the Carolina shore as the seagulls call through the morning sky. After photographing portraits and weddings for over eight years in the midwest, I pulled up my roots and moved cross-country to Wilmington, North Carolina, in the summer of 2021. While everything around me has changed, what I believe has stayed the same: I believe in the kind of love that grows stronger over time and I know, more than ever before, the power in one photograph to change a life. I have a husband and two sons and my senses have been sharpened to the ability to transform a moment simply by noticing it. In the spaces that make up our home, the place where I most love to make things refreshing and beautiful, we cultivate and nurture the belief that there’s nothing more important than our relationship with God and each other. We believe love is worth waiting for, worth prioritizing and worth celebrating.

If you love fresh flowers, natural poses, candid laughter and lots of greenery, we’re really going to get along… my work is earthy and elegant, relaxed but luxurious; bright and warm. Edits are kept pure and I direct you through posing that draws out genuine feeling. My clients are purpose-driven, artistic, active and intentional. They love to learn and learn to live well. Their portraits serve as visual and lasting reminders rich with story: reminders that tell from where they’ve come, point to where they’re going and put on display the beautiful giving of one’s life to another.

Think we may be a good fit? Let’s talk!! You can email me at emily@emilymitton.com or message me on my website: emilymitton.com and I’ll get back to you within 24-48 hours.
