Hello, I'm Darnell Vennie...
photographer, husband to my lovely wife Rësa (picture above of us taken by photographer Aaron Kohns), and father to a wonderful daughter, Brighton. We reside in the Queen City, Charlotte, NC. We also travel to Virginia & Maryland on a regular basis to photograph and visit family.
Photography has been a passion since my highschool years. While pursuing a degree in graphic communications, I worked as a studio portrait photographer, before eventually starting my own business. I've worked full-time as a photographer for the past 13 years, having been published in various publications, Time Magazine, USA Today, and lead photographer for The Colonial Williamsburg Trend & Tradition Magazine.
Today, I also serve as official college photographer for Central Piedmont here in Charlotte, covering all of their marketing & branding needs, special events, all while documenting the stories of some amazing students. It all comes back to capturing and telling a story, whether that's preserving the story of your wedding day, or highlighting your brand and vision.
We also provide event documentary photography and videography services for dynamic advertising and marketing campaigns for local businesses, universities, and non-profit organizations.
