Social Events & Parties
We photograph milestone birthdays, anniversaries, reunions, and galas. Our coverage includes candid moments, group shots, and the details you spent hours planning. We also offer wedding photography.
Community & Municipal Events
Scott has photographed community events for the Town of Carrboro under contract. We also cover festivals, fundraisers, school events, and nonprofit gatherings.
Some organizations choose a sales-based contract. With this setup, the organization pays nothing for coverage. Instead, attendees buy the photos they want.
