Bella Collina Wedding - Stocksdale, NC
They truly are a dynamic duo in terms of photography talent and business.
The day of our engagement shoot – the weather was nonstop rain. There was a moment a torrential downpour started and I thought we would all run for cover but Clay crouched down (without cover!) and took one of the shots below. He never ceases to impress me with his ability to find the best photo opportunities regardless of the circumstances.
From our engagement shoot to the wedding day – Dani continued to check in with me to see how I was doing and closer to the wedding day provided helpful guidance for the wedding day, and asked for a shot list to ensure we were able to capture the most important shots. They day of the wedding, I was stressed and overwhelmed with a number of things that went wrong and when they arrived – they both consoled me and told me everything was going to alright and it definitely helped alleviate my stress. I really appreciated that affirmation and I think that speaks volumes to how caring they are.
I could go on and on but, in short- if you need a photographer for ANYTHING Clay and Dani are your people. Book them and you won’t regret it.

Photos by Clay are an amazing team and go above and beyond to make the best experience for everyone involved. They took the time to get to know us as a couple, are very easy to get along with, extremely patient, kind, creative and professional. They know all the details to capture, big and small, and go above and beyond in order to provide a memorable experience capturing life’s important memories! I highly, highly recommend PhotosbyClay to anyone who not only wants their important life moments captured but who also wants to have the best time doing it!

Clay and Dani are dedicated to make sure you are completely happy with their work.
We hired Clay and Dani to photograph our December wedding. While speaking to Clay over the phone I could tell he immediately knew what we were wanting. Their professionalism is above par. They captured every moment of event and their work is captivating. If you review the pictures on their website you will see examples of the excellent work. What you don’t see is their charming personality, which literally is the icing on the cake! I would HIGHLY recommend them for any event. I’m so glad I was able to witness their talent first hand!

The best at what they do!
Clay and Dani are the best at what they do. Not only is the work that they provide top notch, they also helped us along during the wedding day with keeping things on time. They worked alongside the wedding coordinators to make sure things went seamlessly. I would highly recommend them. Their vision and knowledge are unmatched at capturing those perfect memories. We are so glad that we chose them to photograph our wedding!

Clement Farms Wedding - Oxford, NC
Magical Wedding Day
When I started the journey of wedding planning I said that the one thing I would NOT play around with would be the photography. I searched and looked.. actually stumbled across Photos by Clay but having looked through some of the pictures I said to myself this guy is amazingggggggggg there’s no way I could afford that.. a few months later my daughters gramma brought up the name again and I said to myself let me just check it out and Wow am I glad I did! This husband/wife duo was soooo patient with us and made us feel so comfortable during our engagement/wedding. They are sooo thorough and will keep going until they get the perfect images! Tonight we had our photo reveal and I was blown away at our images! Me and Clay want to thank y’all so much for your passion and for giving us the gift of these amazing images! We will be sharing the images soon!? if y’all need a wedding photographer this is IT!

Passionate photography by the amazing couple
I am so glad that I have found Dani and Clay among sooooo many other photographers to shoot for my wedding ceremony and wedding portraits. It is fate and it is karma :). Despite the time zone difference and the quite non-traditional family-style setting I requested, Dani and Clay have worked with me in relatively aggressive timeline. Their references for bakery, hairstyle and makeup as well as florist have literally helped achieve my mission-impossible wedding with across the globe planning journey. Thanks for your passion and enthusiasm in your work and in helping people in general…..Keep up the ever-demanding artistic perspectives!
