About this vendor
Karin here, I own and operate The McDowell Photography Project - a small, homegrown photography business based in the mountains of Brevard, NC.
My style is subtle and organic and every image will tell a story and convey they feeling of the moment being captured. It's my goal to make you and your partner feel as comfortable and natural as possible which will lead to the most genuine images. I love details, candids, hilarious and weird moments, dogs in bowties, silly dance moves, and everything in between... you name it, I'm up for it.
I also love to travel, so don't hesitate to reach out if you're planning a destination wedding or elopement.

Hiring Karin for our photography needs was a no brainer decision. She took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and everything was flawless. She made us feel super comforta...
ble and was so excited to hike around the woods with us for our engagement photos. She is extremely professional and easy to get along with. She didn't even mind our dog jumping all over her after swimming in the river (LOL!). She captured our special day flawlessly and I would recommend her over and over to everyone I know!
Karin was wonderful to work with as our wedding photographer. Her calm nature and “up for anything” attitude made our day so relaxing and fun! She was a trooper as we took our enti...
re wedding on a short hike up Black Balsam between the ceremony and reception. She made both us and our guests so comfortable. Her amazing candids of our friends and family during the hike are some of my most favorite possessions. Karin also worked with Joe and I to be more of our goofy selves in front of the camera which was really nice, since we were both a little awkward in the beginning. Karin was the perfect blend of professional and personable during every step of the process! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in WNC!
When my husband and I decided (on rather short notice) to elope, the one thing we wanted for our mountain-top wedding was a solid set of photos to remember it by. The pictures Kari...
n shot are beyond beautiful; a year later, my friends' parents--who weren't even there--still talk about how gorgeous the photos are!
And Karin's personality is every bit as lovely as the photographs she produces. She was at once warm and professional, and she seemed genuinely excited for us and invested in our big day. We couldn't have asked for a better, more talented photographer (and witness, to boot)!
Karin was EXCEPTIONAL as my wedding photographer. Not only did she capture my wedding day beautifully, she made me, my husband, and our guests feel very comfortable and relaxed. Th...
e photos she took are more than I could've ever hoped for, and she delivered the images quickly. She is very professional and fun. I highly recommend working with The McDowell Photography Project for your wedding - you will not be disappointed!
Karin is an AMAZING person to have photograph your wedding. She is incredibly flexible, creative and thoughtful during the actual photography. Her easygoing demeanour helps you fee...
l relaxed and natural which transitions into the photos. We had a few ideas of where to get photos taken in the mountains, she did her own research and suggested a few additional locations-these turned out to be our favourite photos. Karin really captures the big and small moments of the day and every photo brings a smile to our faces looking back. The photo album came to us quickly, edited beautifully, perfectly organized into folders and of a very high quality. I have attended several weddings that she has photographed and seeing her work so quietly but intentionally behind the scenes to get those perfect moments and photos makes it clear why her photos turn out so beautifully. I would 100% recommend Karin to any bride and groom looking for a professional, friendly, stress free and talented photographer on their big day!
Not only is Karin incredibly talented, but she was right by our side the whole day capturing every special moment. She made us feel like her priority as well as all of our guests e...
qually important. Our pictures turned out amazing and we are so grateful Karin captured our day perfectly. We would highly recommend The McDowell Photography Project for any special occasion.
