I'm Gracyn, a 30A-based photographer & film-maker passionate about capturing authentic stories that reflect your honest love.

about gray media

As far back as I can remember, I’ve been reaching for the camera. My obsession with shooting, editing, and preserving little moments has always been a part of who I am. 

Flash forward to present day & not much has changed - my passion for documenting the  big and small has now become my career. I truly love this industry with my whole heart and pour everything I have into each story I am entrusted with. 

In essence, my "job" is a natural extension of who I've always been, and I couldn't be more thrilled to invite you into that world. 

the services

As a former bride myself, I know how personal of an experience it is inviting someone into the most memorable, intimate day of your life. Having been on both sides of the camera has heavily influenced the approach  I take with each couple. 

Your wedding day is about you. Your photos should feel like you - not an inauthentic, perfectly posed version of yourselves. With empathy and insight, I aim to create a safe space where your vulnerable, silly, emotional, and biggest moments can be lived fully... and relived for a lifetime. 

Through personal & professional experience, I have gained understanding and crafted an approach I am so proud of, and so excited for you to be a part of!


Experience is everything.

Storytelling

01

 Stories are a means of connection - a dwelling place to reconnect. Memories preserved in a photograph, have the power to bring people together & spark moments of laughter, tears, conversation, inclusion and unity.

Presence

02

My prayer for myself and for you, is to celebrate the present. I’ve found myself rushing through or wishing away certain seasons of life, in anticipation of what comes next. By celebrating this present moment, I’ve realized the value in living to the fullest. Each day is a gift!

Faith

03

the foundation of my business & life. my ultimate inspiration, purpose & identity is found in Jesus, our true Creator.

"Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us." Ephesians 5:1

Creativity

04

We were each created with such intention - every story is so uniquely beautiful and original in its own way. My goal is to always create rather than replicate. And by paying careful attention to the unique details that shape who you are, it’s really pretty easy :) 

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10

Joy

05

Seeking joy in the present moment has helped me slow down & cherish each day.

“This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

[back]

Community

06

I believe we were created for community - to share in each other’s celebrations, encourage one another, and love each other through all seasons of life.

 “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.” Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

my core values

Authentic Moments

I have never been a fan of scripted posing that feels forced or unrealistic. Taking an observer's approach, I hope to guide and encourage authentic moments - when needed. Curating each image specifically to your true selves. 

Nostalgic Imagery

Captured by me but created intentionally for you. Imagery intended to to be relived, deeply felt, and reminisced upon for generations to come. 

Genuine Connection

More than just beautiful imagery,  I care deeply about capturing your individual connection in a way that feels true to you. This is why I place immense value on getting to know you both like friends.

Enneagram

If I were you, I'd want my photographer to feel like a friend, too.

(so, here's a little glimpse into who I am)

my vision board

If you know me, you know Jacob. I am genuinely obsessed with my husband and consider him the greatest gift God has ever given me. He not only makes me a better person, but a better storyteller too.

Our love deeply inspires the way I seek to capture love between two people - each endearing gaze, lingering touch, and tiny detail - completely unique to every couple. 

Jacob plays an essential role in so many areas of Gray Media. He often steps in as my second shooter, so there's a good chance you'll meet him on wedding day. 

So when you're working with us, you're not just getting another vendor — you're getting a husband and wife team who have both been right there in your shoes. we're simply better together!

The heartbeat of Gray Media.
