JOY MILLS
MODERN STORY/ CLASSIC STYLE
EStD. 2016
In a world filled with quick wins, fast fashion, and endless distractions, I am in the business of time. Honest, enduring images with an editorial, classic style... and a firm belief that your real, ACTUAL story is so much more beautiful than anything I could ever "pretend" it to be. These are images designed to let you live in a moment all over again. Because when it comes to preserving stories that matter... I know there is only one chance to get it right.

Behind the Lens
I only have ten photos from my wedding day. Ten moments frozen in faded 4x6 Fuji-film time, bound together in folding-folio, leatherette fashion... as if everything our story stood for could be contained in the four corners of just ten frames. If I'm being honest, we skimped when it came to a photographer. A last minute budget cut. A practical decision. Only, we had no idea how much it would cost us...
“FUTURE BRIDES... LOOK no FURTHER for A PHOTOGRAPHER!
JOY IS NOT ONLY amazing AT WHAT SHE DOES...”
...but she is also such a welcoming and wonderful person to work with!! From our first meeting to our engagement session to our wedding day, Joy did an absolutely INCREDIBLE job!!!

Rain on your wedding day is worth it when the skies finally break into the most perfect sunset over the water. Hayley & Patrick's Water Table wedding was an instant favorite.
