Before I get too much into the detail, I wanted to tell you a little about me and catch you up to the present. My name is Maranda and I am the owner of Forever Young Photography LLC. I have been doing wedding photography for 9 years. I grew up in Warren, Michigan. I went to Wayne State University in Detroit, MI where I studied business administration and took photography classes for my release. Little did I know that something I enjoyed so much could become my career.

However, I have always loved photography even when I was young. Growing up, my backyard had tons of cool dandelions, our dogs at play, flowers, and so many interesting things that could have been easily missed in day to day activities. I think this is where my appreciation for photography began. To show other people through my eyes the things that I discovered in the yard.

On November 6, 2004, Justin and I got married. He has been a wonderful support and encourager. He also has a good eye for design too and developed my website. He the best husband, and I love him more than I could ever express.

For our wedding, I trained Tommy Tesnow and Pam McDonald to do our wedding photography. Here are a couple of my favorite shots from our wedding.

So now fast-forwarding a bit, Justin and I decided to make a move to the warmer weather in the south. We love the outdoors & doing anything outside. Warmer weather throughout the year meant more time to do the things we love. We checked out a couple of cities in North and South Carolina, but decided that the Raleigh area was destined to be our new home. We currently live in Holly Springs, NC and are really happy with our move.
