Your Love, Artfully Captured | NC Wedding Photographer Alicia of Twisted Sapphire

Meet the Twisted Sapphire Team

Meet Garrett – Our In-House Videographer

Hello—I’m Alicia, the heart behind Twisted Sapphire Photography.

Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, but my journey into wedding photography began in the most unexpected way watching my son at a rodeo. I started capturing my son’s rides, which led to photographing my first wedding in 2022. From that moment, I was captivated.

There is an undeniable magic to weddings—the quiet anticipation, the stolen glances, the way love fills the air like electricity. I believe the best photos aren’t posed, but felt. That’s why my approach blends documentary-style storytelling with editorial finesse, ensuring your moments are preserved with both authenticity and elegance.

I take a step back to let moments unfold naturally—the groom’s quiet inhale as he sees his bride, the tearful grip of a father’s hand before he lets go, the stolen laughter between soulmates. These fleeting seconds become heirlooms, frozen in time.

Let’s turn fleeting moments into timeless heirlooms.

Twisted Sapphire Photography is a North Carolina–based wedding photo and video team, capturing love stories across Raleigh, Charlotte, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and destination weddings across the U.S. and worldwide with an editorial eye and documentary soul.

At Twisted Sapphire, your wedding story is told through the perfect harmony of stills and motion.

I’m Alicia, lead photographer and creative director, capturing timeless, emotional photographs with an editorial eye. My focus is on preserving the candid, unscripted moments alongside the artfully composed portraits that will become your family’s heirlooms.
