Luster Studios

Widely regarded as one of the the most sought after wedding photographers in North Carolina, Craig Carpenter of Luster Studios captures award-winning images through creative ideas and authentic photojournalism. His unique style and thoughtful personality help him document planned and spontaneous moments that evokes viewers to care about the people that are in them.

For over 10 years I’ve honed my skills in photography, design and image processing. From humble beginnings developing my own 35mm film to cutting edge digital techniques, I have established a personal approach to this timeless art.

Although I’ve won a variety of awards and am one of the top photographers in my area I’ve been told that my unique blend of technique and emotional imagery is what sets me apart. My positive personality and commitment to their satisfaction is why they refer me long after their special day. In both work and play I find excitement in capturing life’s planned and unplanned moments. My attention to detail and creative insight help me create artistic memories that will last a lifetime.

Most of my clients I work with tend to hold tight bonds with family and friends, and generally have a good sense of humor. I tend to mirror the energy that is around me. When the mood is subdued and romantic, I take on the roll of an unobtrusive professional. When the celebration kicks into high gear, I’ll deliver fast paced, high impact images. If my style and philosophy speak to you, I’d love an opportunity to get to know you better. Feel free to contact me any time.
