About this vendor

The name comes from Ellie, my soul dog, whose love and spirit taught me how powerful the bond between pets and people really is. She’s the “Ells” in Ells & Co, a constant reminder that the best photos aren’t posed or perfect—they’re the everyday moments filled with love, connection, and a little bit of beautiful chaos. The “& Co” is for the rest of my pack—Bailey and Goose.
My photography is rooted in connection and emotion, capturing love in a way that feels warm, intimate, and timeless. I photograph couples and families with a relaxed, natural approach, allowing moments to unfold honestly rather than feeling overly posed.
Visually, my style leans soft and nostalgic, using earthy tones, gentle contrast, and natural light to tell quiet, meaningful stories. I’m drawn to subtle movement, quiet intimacy, and the in-between moments that feel lived-in, creating images that feel deeply personal and allow people to relive the moments and emotions captured.
Ells & Co Photography is based in Salisbury, NC, and offers wedding photography.
