Wedding PHotographers for Wilmington NC, Bald Head Island NC and beyond
Behind the Lens
I'm Eric Boneske, a Wilmington NC based wedding photographer. My job is to make you feel like a movie star for a day. And to give you images that relive the magic of your wedding over and over. Imagine, after all the planning and wedding coordination has settled, and you are finally in year one of your forever... Sitting on your couch together in front of a wall of incredible photographs thinking "Best. Day. Ever!". This is what I do. And you are the reason I do it. I have seriously been blessed to work with the BEST couples over the years!
When I’m not spending time with my wife and four kids or out flying the friendly skies, I’m shooting weddings in some of the most beautiful, inspirational locations you can imagine. I'm a mountain guy at heart but lucky enough to live at the beach. If we see through the same lens, then I bet you believe your best life is lived outside with limited screens and unlimited views. I also bet you know that life is better with slow mornings and hot coffee, a trip on the calendar, and knowing that exactly who you are is always enough.
I've lived in New York, Boston, Lake Tahoe and am now living the dream as a wedding photographer in Wilmington, NC. I'm a goal-setter, list checker-off-er, bucket list maker and artist.
For over a decade I've had the incredible opportunity to photograph over 300 weddings - all across the world. From Italy to Belize, the USVI’s to Puerto Rico, Los Angeles, New York, Napa Valley, Lake Tahoe, New England, Charleston, Naples, Bald Head Island, Wilmington and too many more destinations and local venues to list. So if effortless wedding photography with an editorial attention to detail, and a skies-the-limit approach is what you’re looking for, then we’ll be the perfect fit.

A few of my favorites:
01
favorite Person
This girl. My wife, Ashley. Amazing mom to our kids, artist extraordinaire, lover of all plants and animals - especially our dog Rosie and every one of our chickens!
02
FAVORITE Places I've Been
The Virgin Islands squeak by to take the No. 1 spot. Diving in crystal clear waters is like nothing else. Very close runners up: Italy and Belize. Also Lake Tahoe, Bald Head Island and Yosemite…
03
FAVORITE Part of My Job
That moment after the ceremony when my clients realize their forever starts right then.
04
FAVORITE meal
Literally anything Italian. Mangiamo!
05
Favorite Passtimes
Flying airplanes! There is absoluely nothing like it. Snowboarding, mountain biking, rock climbing and camping. And pickleball... seriously, don't start playing unless you need a new addiction.
06
FAVORITE guilty Pleasure
Binge watching the Great British Baking Show. I don't even know why; maybe it's the accents, or trying to figure out that biscuits are cookies and pies could mean anything...
Looking for a Wilmington NC Wedding Photographer?
Our clients are seekers of beauty, lovers of travel, with a taste for adventure and sea salt in their hair.
We love spending time with our couples and are not afraid to go so far over the top to capture exactly who you are. Documenting what makes you completely unique is what we do. If that means meeting you out in Colorado for a winter wonderland engagement session in a snowy meadow, (done it) or hiking before the sun is up to the top of a mountain in the Appalachians to catch the first light of the day, because the clients wanted fog still hanging in the valleys, (been there) or hopping in my canoe to get the perfect shots of you both kayaking at sunset, (yup, that too) or jetting out to Napa Valley, CA to spend the day exploring wineries and vineyards (this was a great one) or even bringing the underwater camera housing down to Puerto Rico for the couples pre-wedding, dawn patrol surf session... (ok, this was a really great one) Say less, we are all in.
So if you have an out of the box idea, I want to hear it. Are we hanging off the side of a rock wall? Belay on, I'll bring the climbing gear. Are we headed to Costa Rica? Pura Vida! My passport is packed. Want to find a secluded spot in the middle of nowhere? Meet me at the airport. I'll have the airplane fueled up and ready to go.
Your love story is as unique and beautiful as you are. And we want to help you capture it.
