Hi there! Welcome to the Millie Holloman Photography blog. Our company has just one name, but we’re an entire team of crazy, creative, passionate, professional photographers. We’re based all over North Carolina (Wilmington, Raleigh, & Charlotte), but we work all over the world. What do we shoot? In one word: Love. Wedding Love. Baby Love. Family Love. Love of details. Love of design. Love of nature. And this blog? Well, it showcases the images, the people, and the stuff we want to share, both professionally and personally. So what are you waiting for? Come on in and look around.
We want you to get the most out of your time here, so here are a few helpful tips: Check out the text block above that says: “photographers”. Use it to get to know just one photographer better by sorting just their images, twitter updates or bio. Wondering who shot what? Look for the signature on the bottom left of each photograph. Looking for something specific? Type the topic or a keyword into the search bar above for related results.

Hello everyone! I've been slammed... I'm traveling and I'm in the middle of trying to get another wedding on the blog here for you before I head out again for family vacation.
In the meantime I thought I would share some fun news with you. I was selected as Forbeyon's Photographer of the Month and it's all on their blog complete with an interview. Check it out if you've got a little time!
I'm also super excited that Forbeyon will be sponsoring Love Affair Workshop this year and we'll be having it right in their hometown of Dallas, Texas! |

Brent, Amanda, and I just got back from a trip to New York City, and we had blast! We stayed in the Hudson Hotel just off of Central Park. We caught two Broadway shows, shopped ‘til we dropped, ate amazing New York pizza, and rode the Staten Island Ferry. We also got to stop by The Knot headquarters to meet the team that we work with on a regular basis—it was one of the highlights of our trip! More on our New York City trip soon…
(below is a shot of us with the fabulous Rebecca from The Knot headquarters in NY) |



According to the Nielson Report, the average American is exposed to 1600 marketing messages per day. In Manhattan, particularly Times Square, it must be 16,000! Whether it’s the billboards, the televisions in the back of the taxi cabs, or the guys on the streets handing out flyers, Times Square is a marketing message overload!
As a business owners, Charlene (who lived in New York City for years) and I can really appreciate the efforts and the creativity that those companies take to get noticed in the middle of all of that mayhem. It takes a crafty approach to successfully and economically market your business in a way that makes sure you get noticed. That’s why tomorrow, we’re going to share some of our best marketing strategies and favorite examples, including a few direct from New York!

When Millie told me (Lindsey) I would be responsible for shooting Farren + Kevin's Truthbooth, I was over-the-top excited! Over the last few months leading up to the wedding, I had overheard a few bits & pieces about the beautiful details that would be going into this wedding...and I could not WAIT to see it all come together. We wanted to make the booth really reflect Farren's sweet personality, as well as tie into the feel of her wedding, so we added a lot of fun, vintage touches to the booth such as cameras, wooden moustaches, fabric letters, and old books!
This wedding was gorgeous, laid back, and one of the most beautiful evenings I have ever spent at Airlie Gardens. All of Farren + Kevin's friends and guests were so fun to work with, and I'm so glad I got to be apart!
And check out the adorable "S-M-I-L-E" banner Jennifer from Salt Harbor made for the booth... |
























| I had such a great time with everyone! Cheers to Farren + Kevin and stay tuned for the wedding, it's coming soon! |

| This is your brain on branding: |



Yesterday, I made a big mistake. I went to Costco when I was starving. I actually went in to buy a hard drive for one of our computers. But our fridge was empty, and I thought: "Here's a great opportunity to multi-task. I'll just knock out a little grocery shopping while I'm in here." I grabbed one of those giant, oversized carts and the next thing you know, it was full of salad, avocados, frozen pizzas (that a rep was sampling), soft drinks, strawberries, peaches, Duracell batteries, taquitos and the biggest tub of Daisy sour cream you've ever seen! It was definitely a case of my brain on branding.
Hungry for more information on how to brand and market your business? Despite all of that food in my fridge, I'm not serving taquitos for lunch tomorrow (Tuesday). Instead, Charlene and I will be dishing out a hearty helping of ideas, tips, resources, and strategies in the first of our webinar series:
Branding: In a Nutshell.
Join us tomorrow at 1pm EDT. The "branding brain" is just the first of more than 50 slides that will help us present everything you need to know about branding in a nutshell. And, we've lost count of the tips, ideas, and resources we will pack into this sixty minute branding feast. We've still got room for you; just follow this link to register and pay for your spot at our branding round table.
What do you need to bring? Just a big appetite for great branding ideas.
I realized after my shopping spree that I had forgotten the salsa. Looks like there might be another trip to Costco in the near future....
P.S. You can visit the In a Nutshell webinar blog for an updated calendar for the entire webinar series and more information about each of the presentations we will give. |
