Simply Southern Photography, owned by Lisa Miller, offers exceptional photography for all areas of North Carolina. We are available for weddings and portraits, event photography, and other special projects. Our special projects and event photography has been featured in the Independent Weekly, the News and Observer, the Clayton News-Star, and the Sanford Herald. Our event photography won first place in the Brushy Mountain Apple Festival Photography Competition. Lisa is a member of WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International).

Photography has been a passion for Lisa for many years. She spent much of her life as the unofficial photographer for every gathering, event, or item she could capture with her lens. Building upon the idea that your passion should be your life's work, and inspired by Ralph Waldo Emerson's thought that "None of us will ever accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone," Lisa began to learn more about the technical side of photography and study under a local photographer. She then took the plunge to begin her own business, and has been enjoying capturing memories ever since. Lisa's approach to photography combines photojournalistic aspects and traditional perspectives, and she specializes in outdoor sessions where nature accentuates the personality and the beauty of each person.

To Lisa, photography is about the fleeting moments in life - the ones that weave together in our memories and hearts to create what we are and what we love. Photography is a means to remember those we love, rejoice in what we cherish, and experience things we may never see again.
