Small Beach Wedding in the OBX

Intimate Coquina Beach Wedding at the Outer Banks

Venue: Coquina Beach
Florals: Nags Head Florist
Rentals: Metro Rental

Madison and Aidan’s love story begins with a 2 AM Outer Banks beach proposal using an acrylic shark figurine they found washed ashore, and ended with a spontaneous dip in the water under moonlight. Fast-forward to their sunset ceremony on Coquina Beach, where they exchanged vows in front of a handful of their most important loved ones. This spot has been the backdrop for every milestone: their proposal, finding out they were expecting their little girl, and now their OBX wedding.

OBX Wedding Photographer – MTD Photography Company

This wedding day was a true pleasure for me to be chosen to capture. Filled with intention, meaning, and a love that shows so clearly in every frame, despite Madison and Aidan’s claims to be non-photogenic. As a coastal NC wedding photographer, these are the kinds of days that remind me why I do what I do. My goal is always to blend into the moment, document the real emotion, and deliver photos that feel true to you. If you’re planning a small, meaningful wedding on the Outer Banks and want a photographer who understands how to capture it authentically, I’d love to be part of your story.
