I am a North Carolina-based documentary-style photographer with an editorial bent, deeply committed to preserving memories since 2016. I want to memorialize your love story through authentic imagery that highlights YOU, capturing that kind of everyday love that is real + raw. My approach is joy-centric, candid-driven, and people-focused. My work is timeless and creative, and has been featured in world-renowned publications such as Vogue and BRIDES. It is my goal that you'd look at your photos in 50 years and remember it all–and that your photos would be just as magazine-worthy!
I'm Liv Douglas,
documentary photographer
for the Laidback Lovers.

I reached out to Liv on a whim at the beginning of our search for a wedding photographer in the NC/VA area. She was so responsive, kind, thoughtful and intentional that we ended up going with her right away. I fully trusted that her photos would be stunning (they were above and beyond), and found that along with such amazing talent she embodies care and compassion for her clients. I loved getting to know Liv, and my spouse and I both felt deeply cared for throughout the 9 months we worked with her. Liv takes clear joy in her work and brings that spirit into every step of the process! Her attention to our story made us feel incredibly known through the photos she produced. We are so grateful and could not recommend Liv Douglas Photography enough!!

STOP THE SEARCH AND BOOK LIV NOW!!
Hiring Liv as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very first conversation, I had an immediate girl crush on Liv. She is funny, genuine, and instantly makes you feel at ease. Her husband Jacob photographs alongside her, and he is incredible as well. They make such an amazing team and work seamlessly together.
Not only is she unbelievably talented behind the camera, but she is also one of the most genuine, down-to-earth people you will ever meet. She has a way of making everyone feel relaxed and confident, which shows in every single photo. My husband and I are definitely not naturals behind a camera and she does amazing with giving cues and direction for the photos. She captured every emotion, every little detail, and every special moment so beautifully that we get to relive our wedding day every time we look through our gallery. Liv can truly do everything. You give her inspo and she NAILS it.
Her professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail are unmatched, but what truly sets her apart is the person she is. She celebrated with us, supported us through the engagement and planning process, and made the entire experience so much fun. We truly became instant friends.
If you're looking for someone who will not only deliver stunning photos but also be one of your biggest cheerleaders throughout the process, look no further. We cannot recommend her enough and will treasure these photos and this new-found friendship forever.

Testimonials
Liv photographed our engagement shoot and wedding, and working with her was an absolute dream come true. From our very first call, I knew she was the one, because she cares!! She wanted to know all about my now husband and me, and talking with her felt like catching up with an old friend.
Anytime I had a question, whether about photography or just general wedding advice, Liv was my girl. She always showed up for us and made it clear she was 110% on our team.
She has a true gift from God when it comes to capturing people. We felt so comfortable being ourselves around her, which is why our engagement photos actually feel like us! And our wedding photos?! They don’t just show moments, they capture memories.
We decided not to have a videographer and instead trusted Liv’s documentary-style photography to tell the story of our day. She exceeded every expectation. Looking back at our photos, we can feel the moments all over again, I pretty much shed tears of joy every time I see them. It’s honestly impossible to pick which photos to print or share because every single one is perfect. We find ourselves saying, “Can we do it all over again?” because her photos bring back that same giddy, joy-filled feeling from our wedding day.
Highly, highly recommend not only having Liv as your photographer, but knowing her as a person. You want her on your team!!
