Hi, I’m Sara. I’m a small-town girl who finds all my joy in the little things. My life is rooted in my love for Jesus + my family. From such a young age I have been intentional in documenting timeless photographs with genuine emotion – like the way your soulmate looks at you on your wedding day when you’re not looking or the emotion from your father as he sees you in your wedding dress for the first time. Seeing these little moments in your life, frozen in time, will be something that you can cherish forever.

We had a wonderful experience working with Sara and See Through Photography for our wedding. Sara was so personable and easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. She did a great job capturing the special moments of our big day and delivered a beautiful album to us in under a month. Our wedding pictures turned out even better than we had envisioned thanks to Sara's artistic eye and attention to detail. We highly recommend See Through Photography, especially if you are looking for a photographer who can balance professionalism with a fun, laidback energy. Sara felt like a member of the family on our wedding day and the photos reflect the joy and love that filled the event. We couldn't be happier that we chose See Through Photography and Sara to document memories we will cherish for a lifetime.

Brian was easy to work with. The app that he gave us access to was amazing. It made it easy for us to add songs for every part of our wedding. It was great that we could invite others (we did our wedding party) to join the app as well so they could help us add music to make our reception awesome. Brian was able to hype up the crowd and played a great mixture of songs throughout the evening.

Not only did she take the most IMPECCABLE photos, but she was there throughout the day to help with little things like placing the veil in the right way. She has a knack of catching candidates of some of the sweetest moments that would easily be forgotten if they weren’t captured. She is reliable, thoughtful, a clear communicator, and she got our photos back SO quickly. I could go on about her all day - you will absolutely not regret picking her as your photographer.

Admittedly a hopeless romantic, I simply LOVE love. The beautiful season of life that you're in right now is a gift! Having a photographer you trust throughout the entire wedding planning process, as well as someone willing to advocate for you on your big day, is such an important role, and my biggest honor. The name In Bloom is inspired by my love for flowers and how they can be seen as a metaphor for life. A delicate staple of beauty that grows and withstands the elements, ultimately blooming and weathering the ever- changing seasons. My passion flourishes in capturing life's moments that are beautiful and fleeting, like a flower In Bloom.

Christan is the most warm, caring individual you’ll ever meet. From my first consultation phone call to the dedication she showed in completing our wedding photo gallery, I felt cared for and highly important to her. Not only is she amazing to work with but her photographs made me feel beautiful and will be timeless. My husband and I felt so comfortable taking photos when we’ve never had professional photos taken. If you’re looking for a photographer for any special event, I can not recommend Christan enough. I would have spent 10 times the investment to have had Christan be our photographer. Long story short, Christan is the best and her photography skills are unmatched. Every picture in our gallery is AMAZING! Best hype woman!

Hi, my name is Faith. I have been passionate about photography since 2017, when I first picked up a camera to capture my dogs growing up. What started as a simple love for photographing my pups has evolved into a deep passion for capturing moments that tell a story. Traveling is another love of mine, and Africa holds a particularly special place in my heart. I have been fortunate enough to visit three times, with hopes to have many more trips. When I am not behind the camera, I'm either coaching gymnastics, spending time with my two dogs, or exploring the world around me.

Faith is a phenomenal photographer! I have had the pleasure of working with her on several occasions, all at different venues. She is very well rounded and works extremely well with adults and children. Faith has a soft and kind demeanor, all while producing strong and fierce photos. Aside from her photography, she is wonderful at planning and scheduling. Faith is well organized, giving the customer/family a stress free photoshoot. I highly recommend Faith M.

For example, we were getting caught up in the dancing and were going to skip the cake cutting. She didn’t push, she just asked, “Are you sure? You told me that this was something that was important to you, so I just want to check”. And I’m so thankful she did that, because it’s one of my favorite wedding moments! She went absolutely above and beyond for us. I am currently in medical school and was so stressed leading up to the wedding, but Steph made me feel like it was possible.

Homesteads Events at Loray Mill is a banquet hall wedding venue located in Gastonia, NC. The open-plan event space provides an old-world, industrial ambiance for your wedding event. Homesteads Events can accommodate a range of celebrations, from an intimate engagement party to a grand wedding soiree. The main event hall offers space for up to 300 guests and features 38-foot-high ceilings and exposed brickwork throughout the entire area. Large windows allow natural light to flood the space, adding a sense of bright airiness to the room. Poured concrete floors, original wooden pillars, and exposed beams lend charm and character to the banquet hall, which can be personalized with your own decor. Also available is a one-bedroom loft apartment with a full kitchen that can be used as your honeymoon suite for your wedding night. Homesteads Events offers a range of all-inclusive packages to ensure your event needs are fully met.

Our experience with Homesteads was absolutely top notch. My husband and I have been involved in over 200 weddings between planning, coordinating, catering, attending, being in the bridal party, and now as bride and groom--so we have truly seen the full spectrum of wedding vendors and venues. From our very first meeting to our wedding day and even beyond, the staff at Homesteads has exceeded our expectations. Venue director Hannah is professional yet relatable and gave us helpful tips and recommendations along the way, responded to all our questions in a timely manner, and overall made our entire day flow smoothly. Catering director Kim is a sweetheart and worked with us to create several versions of our menu and was patient as my (former chef) husband made tweaks over the course of several months. The day-of staff and bartenders were outstanding--serving our guests with excellence, making them feel welcome, and contributing to the overall atmosphere we had envisioned. They brought us food and drinks all night and we didn't have to think about anything except enjoying the party we had spent so many months planning! So many of our guests commented on how beautiful and unique the venue was. There are so many different event spaces at Loray Mill and we ended up hosting our rehearsal dinner / welcome party there as well--truly a full-service venue. With so much to plan for our wedding, it was a huge relief that they also provided tables & chairs, linens, catering, alcohol, bar service, security, etc. and we didn't have to "Frankenstein" all of those details. Many of our vendors were already familiar with the venue which was a huge plus as well. We love Hannah and Homesteads and would recommend this venue and this team to absolutely anyone!

Hi there! I'm Jackie, and this is my husband & business partner, Cory. Many photographer's "about me" section will tell you how they've known they wanted to be a photographer since they were a child. Not mine. I didn't know that's what I wanted until I actually started taking pictures and realized that photography was the creative outlet I had been missing my entire life. Not only am I so incredibly blessed to have this amazing, life-giving business; I'm even more blessed to get to share it with my husband.

So happy I chose Jackie to do our engagement and wedding photography. She is such a talented beautiful person! We were over the moon on how our photos turned out each time.

Hi, I'm Ashley, a Charlotte based wedding photographer. I’m all about candid moments, raw moments and real love. Capturing unique love stories and creating a timeless gallery for my people to look back on is what I strive to do. Art is subjective, which is why I love directing my couples in a way that will reflect their love in its realest form while still giving them room to be themselves.

Ashley was incredibly professional and we are so in love with our wedding photos. She was awesome to work with, and made us and everyone in our wedding party feel so comfortable in front of the camera. My family was raving about her for weeks after. She was able to capture so much emotion and beautiful moments from our day, and I recommend her to anyone that needs a wedding photographer!

  • Venue
  • Up to 250 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Separk Mansion is a wedding venue located in Gastonia, North Carolina that is just 20 minutes from Charlotte. This renovated mansion is designed with beautiful weddings in mind and will give you an elegant backdrop that will create a celebration that is full of everlasting memories. Separk Mansion is ideal for both indoor and outdoor weddings. The first floor ballroom retains old vintage hardwood floors and has a ceiling that shimmers with crystal chandeliers. At the front there is a large staircase as well as large front doors that lead to an expansive limestone veranda that can be used for a cocktail hour. This impressive estate was built in 1919 by textile mogul Joseph Separk. He lived in the mansion with his wife and son during the 1920s. In 2012 it underwent complete renovation and is currently one of the most popular locations for ceremonies and receptions. The mansion is part of the York Chester Historic District and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Working with Separk was super easy from start to finish. We had Hannah as our wedding coordinator and she did a great job with creating and sticking to the timeline. She also did great at setting up our decor items and some flowers we brought to the venue. She was very communicative with us and our bridal party/family so that everyone knew what was expected from them for the ceremony. Overall we had a great experience with Separk and had the most perfect wedding thanks to them!

We can't say enough great things about him! If you are looking for an experienced, friendly, well priced, and overall great person and DJ then we recommend hiring him!
