Hello! I'm Ryan, a Charlotte-based Wedding Photographer and Videographer. My wife Jina, an expert video editor, and I form a passionate team, capturing life's precious moments. We focus on creating stories that reflect your uniqueness, allowing you to relive your special day through our work.



Honestly, what we love most about wedding photography and video is being able to tell your story in a way that feels real. Our style is documentary, centered on genuine emotions and unscripted moments that make your day unique. It is less about posing and more about creating space for you to be fully present. When you look back, the goal is that you feel the day all over again. We keep things low key so you can focus on celebrating while we quietly capture it all in the background.

your story is at the heart of everything we do.

About Us

I'm Elijah, a wedding photographer and videographer, based in Northern California.  With a heart for the outdoors, my passion for camping and fishing not only inspires my work but also brings a sense of adventure to every shot I take. Staying active is important to me, and I find that regular workouts keep both my body and creativity in peak condition. In each project, I aim to infuse my love for the natural world, capturing stories that are as real and lively as my own pursuits.

Hi, I’m Ryan. I’ve been photographing and filming weddings for almost ten years, and what I love most is the celebration of love and family. On a wedding day I’m laid back, never stressed, and I focus on keeping things fun and natural so you can relax while I capture the moments that matter. 

In 2023 we settled in North Carolina to be closer to family. We spend our time hiking, camping, and exploring Western NC, and at home I love moments like teaching the kids how to ride their bikes. California will always hold a piece of my heart, and I’m lucky I still get to return for weddings there while creating new stories here. I often share bits of our family life on Instagram at @ryansilverseas.

Life in Northern California keeps me close to the outdoors I love. Whether it is camping, fishing, or staying active, I bring that same energy and presence into the way I approach weddings. My focus is on keeping things relaxed and genuine, so couples can enjoy their day while I capture it as it unfolds.

I’ve been photographing and filming weddings for almost ten years, and I keep things laid back so you can enjoy your day while I capture the moments that matter. After fifteen years in California, my family and I settled in North Carolina, where most of our free time is spent outdoors. When I’m not working, being a dad is my favorite role, whether that’s chasing the kids around the yard or teaching them something new.

 Understanding our clients and the important people in their lives is fundamental to our work. This approach allows us to craft a narrative that is not only unique and creative but also deeply personal. The relationships we build with our clients are at the heart of our mission, and we're always looking forward to forming new connections and capturing the beautiful stories of more couples.

For us, understanding our couples and the people closest to them is at the heart of everything we do. It is how we create wedding photography and videography that feels personal, creative, and true to each story. Every new connection is a chance to capture another beautiful chapter.

We love to tell love stories.
