  Worth Every Penny

  Cara and her team truly captured our day perfectly. They were professional, prompt, and pleasant! Cara kept us laughing and made sure everything ran so smoothly. She gave us a peace of mind that was invaluable. Thank you, Cara and Lacy!

  Engagement & Wedding Photos | Experience with f8

  f8 Photo Studios is THE best! Cara is incredibly talented. She did my engagement and wedding photos. On both days, it was insanely hot outside and somehow she managed to make everyone look amazing. She gets the job done, gets THE picture, and truly knows how to capture the moment. I would recommend her to anyone truly. We couldn't be happier with our pictures and will cherish them forever. Thank you f8!

  Simply amazing

  Cara and her team are simply excellent. Not only are they professional, flexible, and take AMAZING photos, they are personable and hilarious. Cara made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day and we really couldnt have hired a better photographer. I also had a bridal shoot months before our wedding and she directed me through the entire process to make sure the angles were just right! Our wedding pictures were incredible. I recommend her to anyone and everyone who is getting married in the Raleigh area. BOOK THEM!

  Cara is the absolute best!

  My husband, Travis, and I have been SO impressed with Cara throughout our wedding experience. She spoke with us at length on the phone before we decided to go with her and was so great at answering all of our questions.
  Cara shot our engagement photos in Nov 2019 and our small wedding ceremony in Nov 2020 and both experiences were FANTASTIC. She is truly an expert at what she does and we cannot wait to have her photograph our postponed wedding celebration in May 2021!

  Perfect Wedding Photographer

  When looking for wedding photographers, the photos from f8 Photo Studios (Cara and Adrienne) were the style of photography we wanted because they were crisp and natural. After meeting with Cara, we knew we wanted them to photograph not only our wedding but also our engagement photos. We picked the package with the associate photographer, Adrienne, and met her for our engagement photo session. With a short conversation we connected with Adrienne quickly and the photos turned out amazing. When it came to the wedding day, Adrienne and her second shooter captured every moment we could have possibly wanted as well as being able to deal with our easily distractible family. The photos from the first look still make me cry every time I look at them. Adrienne even stayed later than scheduled to capture our exit. We ended up quickly receiving over 800 incredible wedding photos. It is still difficult to narrow down our favorites since every detail is so remarkable. Thank you, Adrienne, for capturing our special day perfectly!

  A Breeze To work with

  I worked with Cara for my October 2019 wedding, and she and her team were fantastic! Cara worked with me to stay within my budget and she was fun and delightful to partner with. Our photographer, Lindsay, made my husband and I feel at ease and helped us work out the jitters and stiffness in our portrait session. Lindsay kept us on track and took beautiful images of our celebration. I am thrilled with how our sneak peak photos turned out and look forward to seeing more. I live in Maine and planned a wedding in Raleigh, NC. Cara and Lindsay made it easy to plan from afar over phone and email.

  A true fairytale!

  We couldn't have asked for a better photographer! Cara's partner, Adrienne, did our engagement session and wedding day (with Lacy!!) - made taking 100s of pictures FUN, we were laughing the entire time. We've loved looking through our gallery and continuously receive compliments about our incredible pictures! Both Cara and Adrienne were absolutely incredible to work with - made the entire process easy, which is a bride's dream among all the wedding planning! A photographer is one of the biggest decisions throughout planning, if not the biggest, and we are SO happy we chose F8 to be a part of our special day. Thank you!!

  Awesome photos and wonderful experience!

  F8 Photo Studios did such an amazing job on our wedding photos! Cara is so much fun to work with and makes you feel like a model! She was so efficient organizing the family pictures we wanted and she captured all of our favorite moments throughout the night. We loved working with her and totally recommend her for your wedding photography!

  So fun to work with!!

  We're very happy to have had Cara photograph our wedding. We keep looking back at our photos and love how they really capture the beauty of everything and helped make us look great!
  
  Meeting Cara for our engagement photos was great because it gave us an opportunity to see how she worked and be more relaxed on our wedding day since we weren't total strangers. She also is fun and jokes around to make you relax and smile the whole time.
  
  My husband is a photographer himself, so Cara went above and beyond by scouting out our venue the day before and taking some great shots of the beautiful scenery! It wasn't something she had to do but was such a thoughtful way to show she cared. On the day of, she was great and both made everyone feel at ease while also keeping them in line to ensure we stayed on time and got all the photos we wanted. She was good to work with because she took input from us and also made her own suggestions so that we could come to an agreement on what shots we wanted and how things would run to make it all perfect.
  
  To top it all off, the pictures are great. They show emotion, have great color and sharpness, and help to tell the story of our day. But you can see that easily from all her great albums! The photographer is such an important part of your wedding since they will be with you all day and they will capture your memories and what you look back at year after year. Highly recommend Cara and would work with her again in a heartbeat!

  Best Photos Ever!

  What an amazing experience all around. Cara was phenomenal to talk to and I felt like she really "got me". Adrienne was so fun to work with and took some amazing photos. We did an engagement shoot first and she really put my husband and I at ease. We had so much fun!! Throughout the process she was so available and responsive. And really took the time to get to know us. Then, when the wedding rolled around it was smooth sailing. The formal pictures went so quickly because we had really planned it all out ahead of time. I got the pictures back super quickly which was a huge surprise! When I saw all the candid ones that captured all of the different and beautiful emotions of the day I was truly blown away. It was exactly what I had hoped for. Really awesome job.

  Friendly photographer, great photos!

  It was great to work with Adrienne and f8. She put us at ease during our initial meeting, months ahead of the wedding, by really explaining the photo package and her style clearly. Then, once the wedding was getting closer, Adrienne reached out with helpful planning docs. I really appreciated how she made sure to know exactly what family photos we wanted, even checking whether there were any family dynamics she shoudl know abut to avoid any awkwardness (none in my case, but I appreciated the ask!). She was clear about the timeline we would need to get the photos we wanted so that we were able to coordinate with our makeup artist as well. On the day of, Adrienne's easy energy and sense of humor kept everyone smiling even when our cheeks were starting to hurt! We had to stay indoors for most of the pics because of the rain, but later on she still managed to get us out for some nighttime shots that came out great. I just got my full set of photos back and am LOVING them. Along with the posed shots, I love the candids from our reception and all of the detail shots, too. She beautifully captured our wedding day. I appreciate being able to have all of the digital copies and decide what prints I'll make later on. f8 also sent a slideshow set to our first dance song, which was a really sweet touch. Thanks!

  Beautiful pictures and amazing photographers!

  Amazing! We were so lucky to have Cara and Lacey shoot our wedding. They were so fun on the day of, making everyone feel comfortable and even getting smiles out of my dad! They caught moments that we missed during the day, but got to see all of it through the amazing pictures! I am in love with our photos and recommend f8 photo studios to anyone! You could tell Cara truly cared about being part of our day and made it so special! Thank you thank you!

  I was so happy with the responsiveness, helpfulness, & more from f8 I posted a review before even having a photo session. After that, we had an engagement session that was honestly one of the best wedding-related decisions I made. I usually hate taking pictures but Adrienne made it so much fun! We would have been excited going into the wedding based on her personality alone, but the pictures-oh my gosh. They are perfect. Cool angles, beautiful light, I don't know enough about photography to know exactly why they're that good, I just know I love them. One of my favorite compliments about them was that we look just like us, not a fake version of us. For the wedding, I can't say enough to properly thank the whole team for everything they did that day & for all the effort leading up to it. Cara answered emails immediately, spent SO much time helping me with the whole planning process, then once we were connected with Adrienne she spent several hours with us over phone & email. She handled last minute changes so graciously, we were so excited and so comfortable going into the big day! My husband said Adrienne's associate Lindsay made him feel like we had 2 lead photographers & I totally agree. We both really enjoyed how well they both played off each other & worked together. They swooped in & saved the day when my veil kept getting caught on the straps of my dress. They went above & beyond adjusting, readjusting, making sure I felt comfortable. On top of all that, we ended up with the most incredible photos that so perfectly captured our wedding. They reflect exactly how our favorite people are - their expressions, their dance moves, the way they celebrate, it's priceless. Our guests kept asking me to make sure they got the link because they felt like they'd gotten some great shots of their family. That was unexpectedly the best feeling ever. One of our cousins said "I can't stop looking at these pictures!", I feel like that says it all. I love f8!!!

My husband said Adrienne's associate Lindsay made him feel like we had 2 lead photographers & I totally agree. We both really enjoyed how well they both played off each other & worked together. They swooped in & saved the day when my veil kept getting caught on the straps of my dress. They went above & beyond adjusting, readjusting, making sure I felt comfortable. On top of all that, we ended up with the most incredible photos that so perfectly captured our wedding. They reflect exactly how our favorite people are - their expressions, their dance moves, the way they celebrate, it's priceless. Our guests kept asking me to make sure they got the link because they felt like they'd gotten some great shots of their family. That was unexpectedly the best feeling ever. One of our cousins said "I can't stop looking at these pictures!", I feel like that says it all. I love f8!!!

  It's not possible to overstate how much I appreciate Cara & Adrienne with f8! My wedding isn't until August, so I can't speak to the actual photos yet, but the amount of effort and support they've already put in completely warrants a 5 star review. I'd give them 10 stars, if that was an option. I have obsessively researched every vendor we're using and the pressure of making the right investment can be so stressful, but within a few minutes of talking to Cara I already felt so relieved, and as the planning process continues I have felt more and more confident that I made such a good choice! Cara mentioned early on that they want their clients to feel like they're a friend hanging out instead of feeling like some stranger is pointing a camera at them all day, and I can say with complete certainty she and Adrienne have 100% accomplished that, and the big day isn't even here yet! They both have this amazing mix of being down to earth but also so professional and knowledgeable at the same time. In an industry where I feel some vendors give off a vibe of being very self-important or judgy, these 2 totally shine with their knack for providing feedback in a way that truly makes me feel like I'm just chatting with a good friend who just happens to know basically everything about the wedding business in this area. They've consistently encouraged me to reach out for support when I have any questions, and they have totally delivered, even on things that pretty much have nothing to do with photography. I'm so, so happy with them and I have no doubt the photos will be beautiful and they will do everything in their power to make sure we have a great experience.

  Cara made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera right from the beginning. She is easy going and makes you feel like you've known her for a long time. She knows the best places to take pictures in Raleigh. We loved where she picked for us to go for the engagement photos and the bridal party photos. It was a super hot day, but she knew exactly where to go to get shade. We got the family pictures we needed but also some really amazing candid shots. She's quick when she needs to be but always pays attention to details! We've gotten so many compliments for the pictures and can't recommend Cara enough!

  My daughter used Cara for engagement photos and on her wedding day. Cara was fantastic! In less then a month we had her photos from wedding day. Amazing! They are beautiful. Everyone that has seen them is so impressed. She took posed pictures and candid pictures all day. She captured the day beautifully.

  Adrienne is awesome!

  Adrienne Fox was our photographer for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. The quality of both was incredible and she was such a pleasure to work with. She brought a second shooter who I barely noticed on our big day (a good thing), while taking wonderful photos. Adrienne worked very well with our videographer too, which I learned in the industry isn't always a given. 10/10 would hire Adrienne again thanks so much for our memories!

  Best. Photographer. EVER!! Cara , owner of f8 Photo Studios, is seriously the "total package" of photographers. Not only are her photos incredible, but she is responsive, professional, and so fun to work with! My husband and I live in Washington, D.C. and we were having trouble finding time to drive down to Raleigh for an engagement shoot, so Cara drove up to D.C. and we had our engagement shoot here! I was blown away by that gesture from her and it's things like this that truly make her an incredible wedding photographer. On your actual wedding day, you will realize that you're kind of on a tight schedule. Cara kept everything rolling along, made sure people were where they needed to be, and still kept everything relaxed and fun! Oh and did I mention she's hilarious? She will have your wedding party laughing true laughter for those fun "candid" photos everyone loves so much. In the months leading up to our wedding, we would chat on the phone, plan out schedules, and hammer out details I wasn't even aware I needed to be hammering out! She was worth every penny and we are so blessed we found f8 Photo Studios! Thank goodness for you, Cara! We couldn't have done any of it without you!
