about me...
My name is Brittany Higginbotham and I'm the owner and photographer of Ever After Photography. I'm from Tennessee but moved to Belmont, NC my freshman year in high school, where I attended South Point High School. This has been my home ever since and I love to say that I'm from North Carolina.
I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with a Bachelor's degree in Studio Art and a concentration in photography. I continue to learn everyday about love and life, and I'm so lucky to have the chance to photograph such beautiful moments.
I've always been an artist in every respect, and I've always had the urge to create art. When I discovered photography in college I recognized my calling. Growing up, my mother always wanted pictures of every milestone in our lives, and that inspired me to want to do the same for others. One of my fondest memories, growing up, is the little wooden box that my Granny kept in her living room, full of old black and white pictures. There wasn't a single time I didn't run through the front door to sift through those old, yellowed memories like I had never seen them before. I would pick each one up, hold it to my nose (I can still smell the faded emulsion), and make up a story in my mind for each one. I would ask my Granny to sit with me and recite the old stories over and over; it always seemed so romantic and adventurous. I believe my passion for photography stemmed out of those stories, and my job is to capture your happily ever after in a beautiful light so that you can sit back and enjoy your special moments. Maybe one day a new generation will sit in the living room floor asking questions about each picture in your little wooden box.
