Patty is both a creative & analytical photographer with a passion for documenting love stories. With over 10+ years of experience working a camera, her journey into documenting weddings started 3 years ago after marrying the love of her life in 2020 (yes, during the pandemic).

My name is Arsalan — "RC" for short. Over many years, I have honed an appreciation for the textures of every day life: shadows shifting with time, the subtle glimpse of emotion in someone's face, or a dapple of light on concrete. Trained as an architect, I approach photography through the same lens with which I view the built world – with a thoughtful eye for light, composition, and poetry. Photography, to me, is about eternalizing this beauty, so that we can keep a little of its magic with us.

Chicago native, with a big love for hot dogs and pizza. Now resides in the land of the pines, and not mad about it one bit. After doing hair for 6 years, I suffered a stroke, leaving me unable to use my right hand fully, blessing me with a career change I’ve always wanted to make, just needed that push, and boy did I get one!

Wedding days are over in a flash, but I'm here to help you remember the joy you felt in those moments. I am mother and wife. My photography journey began in college as a journalism student at UNC Chapel Hill.

With over 18 years of professional experience, based in the Raleigh, NC area. I have become deeply acquainted with the beauty of North Carolina, its landscapes, and its diverse residents. This connection is reflected in the exceptional reviews I have received from clients on platforms like Thumbtack and Google, with over 140 reviews and counting.

I hold a bachelor's degree in journalism and mass communication, with a focus in photojournalism, and an MBA from Pfeiffer University. I truly love my job. I love capturing priceless pieces of time and placing them in frames. I was taught at UNC that a photographer should be able to tell a complete story with a single photo, and that's what I strive to do -- tell the story of that one moment of laughter, that priceless expression and single tear of joy.

Photographs for the once in a lifetime moments. Film that tells a story. We believe a wedding is best remembered when the two are brought together. Coming from backgrounds of documentary film and studio photography, our passion is in capturing the spontaneous, authentic, and beautiful; creating photos and films that are as original as you.
