About

One question every couple asks is "what is your style?" We deeply believe that the memories of your special day should be captured in the most exquisite detail, with true-to-life colors and crisp details, and without the use of heavy editing or filters. We want to ensure that your photographs will be cherished for years to come, and that they are not time-stamped to a particular photography fad. We believe that real life will never go out of style and want you to look back on the images from your special day with fondness and nostalgia.

Years of capturing luxury events and coordinating with wedding designers, florists, venues, and most importantly, wonderful couples have helped my team perfect the balance between carefully planning, appropriately directing, and quietly stepping into the background, capturing moments naturally as they unfold. Our approach to capturing your wedding is entirely client-centered, we do not have a one size fits all approach as no couple or event is entirely the same and we are thankful for that. We instead tailor our approach around your goals for your wedding. We delight in all the things that make your wedding unique. We want your experience working with us to be just as amazing as the images you hired us to capture.

Amazing Experience Start to Finish and Truly got to Know Us

Pam and her team are an incredible and vital part of making any engagement and wedding experience beautiful and memorable. From the beginning, the amount of care and time she spent to get to know us and our love story and what we wanted in a photographer was evident. And the beautiful engagement photoshoot turned into the most spectacular wedding album. We received so many photos from both the photoshoot and the wedding and are so grateful for it. She captured us and those memories perfectly. The cost is excellent for the value she produces, and I'd recommend Pam to anyone getting a photographer for a wedding. She is timely and responsive and works hard to make sure every detail is just right. I appreciated every part of the process of working with her and I think anyone would be thrilled to have her shoot their wedding.

So glad she was our wedding photographer!

We are so happy to have worked with Pamela for our wedding. From the moment we talked to her over the phone my gut told me to go with her and I'm so glad we did! Not only is she an amazing photographer but she is so kind and was really helpful throughout the wedding planning process. She is also very responsive by email and our sneak peak photos were stunning, we can't wait to see the rest!

Beautiful Memories Captured for a Lifetime

We worked with Pamela for our engagement photos, bridal portraits and wedding day photos. We were so impressed with her at each photo shoot! She helped guide my husband and I to the perfect couple poses and included beautiful details in each shot. She is very talented and has exceptional professionalism. We received our wedding day photos back very quickly and were so happy with all the details she captured. From our memory table with photos of loved ones during our reception to our bride and groom photos during cocktail hour, each photo was taken with the utmost detail. We shared our wedding album with our friends and family and received so many compliments. We are so grateful to have these wedding memories captured so that we can look back on them for years to come. We highly recommend Pamela Jahnke as your wedding photographer!

Pam is incredible

Working with Pam was the best wedding decision we made! She is so unbelievably easy to work with, she is so kind and thoughtful! Pam took the time to get to know me and my husband and really listen to what types of photos we wanted, our vision, family dynamics, and vibe for the wedding. We did an engagement shoot a few months before the wedding and she got us comfortable in front of the camera (which turned out beautifully). She truly captured our wedding day so perfectly and we cannot stop looking at the pictures! Not only is she amazing at photography but her turn around times are unreal--within one week we had our entire wedding album completed. Please do not think twice about booking Pam, she is amazing and will capture your day beautifully--zero regrets here!

Simply Amazing

Pamela makes everyone feel so comfortable, it’s like talking to a long time friend. When posing for millions of photos this is key because it made it so easy to follow her instructions. She was so responsive and helpful throughout the whole process. We used Pamela for engagement photos, bridal portraits and our wedding photos and we could not have asked for better. The photos came back absolutely stunning! And it was a quick turn-around too! I’m so glad we hired Pamela for all our wedding photos. I cannot recommend her enough!

Fabulous photographer!

Pam did a wonderful job with our photos! We have so many great pens to choose from, it will be hard to decide which ones to print and frame. She was so nice and professional throughout the wedding day, we never had to worry about anything! And she produced the photos incredibly fast- not even a week after the wedding has gone by before we had the whole set. We would strongly recommend Pam for any wedding!

Stunning photography

Pam truly blew us away with her photography from our wedding. The photos were absolutely STUNNING and she was such a joy to work with. She gave us direction every step of the way and was extremely kind, patient, and professional. She checked in with both of us throughout the day to make sure we had what we needed at all times. I took the bar exam a few weeks before our wedding and she even reached out to me personally the day before to wish me luck, which shows just how wonderful of a person she truly is. Hiring Pam as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made and I cannot recommend her enough!

Pam Will Become Your Best Friend!

Pam is the best, kindest, most selfless wedding photographer that I have ever interacted with! I found her through a recommendation from my planner and I immediately felt like I was talking to my best friend. She went out of her way to get to know me and my fiance, ask questions about our dream wedding, and really listen to what we wanted in our photography. She did our engagement photos and we had the best time with her. We wanted to do them at the beach, but what we did not know was that it was going to be freezing and there were hurricane-like winds! Pam laughed with us through it all and coached us on how to get the best-looking pictures. Our photos turned out gorgeous and you would never know the disaster of the weather. I did my bridal shots with Pam and she was busy cleaning up the front of the house while I was getting in my dress. When my dress did not fit as expected, she was so positive and reassuring, helping me to keep it together. On our wedding day, she treated us as if we were the most important people in the world and worked with us to make sure we had the pictures we wanted. He also booked Thomas Blake for our videography and they were the dream team. Having Pam there made our day even more special. She is one of the nicest people I ever met. She helped me with planning throughout and had great suggestions given her experience. She is so quick to edit photos and give them back to you, which is huge when you are dying to see them after your wedding. There are so many fabulous wedding photographers in Raleigh but Pam by far is the very best. Not only will she care about you and your day but she will also become part of your family. Wedding planning can be stressful and Pam goes out of her way to decrease those stresses for her clients. I am forever grateful for her and her beautiful photos that will decorate our house for years to come. Thank you Pam!

Amazing Photographer

I had the pleasure of working with Pamela for a recent wedding at the Maxwell and she was truly amazing. Not only was she great at communicating leading up to the wedding but also flexible on the day of and made sure we got everything we needed without feeling rushed. The photos were amazing and we had a ton of sneak peeks the next day! Highly recommend.

Pamela was an AMAZING wedding photographer

We can't say enough good things about working with Pamela for our spring 2022 wedding. Leading up to the wedding, she was always available and extremely helpful as we planned our photos and where we wanted to take them. Our venue was indoors so we went offsite for bridal photos and Pam even scouted a few locations for us.

On the day of the wedding she did a perfect job capturing every moment - the detail shots, bridal party & family photos, ceremony and reception. She captured SO MANY incredible photos but never felt intrusive and everything felt so natural throughout the day. Finally, she delivered the sneak peak photos the day after the wedding and our full wedding gallery less than a week later. We were so pleasantly surprised by how quickly she edited all of our photos and thrilled with how they turned out.

We highly recommend booking Pamela!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
