POSTS STORIES REELS

Hi friends! I figured it was time to reintroduce myself with a new branding photo + a little about this small business. 🕊️

My name is Nary. I’m a mom of two littles & wife to my high school sweetheart.
I’m all about the candid moments. The laughter & the connection, especially with families and couples. 💛

In just a few months, through consistency, hard work, faith & prayer… I’ve been blessed to turn this hobby into my official job. Thank you to every client who has believed in me, booked a session, referred your friends & showed support through social media. 🙏

I’m excited to announce that I’ve launched a new booking system to make things easier for you as a client, and with that I’ve adjusted my pricing so I can pour even more intention & heart into each gallery. I want nothing more than to deliver meaningful, personal galleries that reflect your story. 🥹 You can find my new booking system, website, portfolio & updated pricing linked in my bio! ✨

You want family photos that you can feel.

The kind that brings you back to the way their tiny hand fit in yours, the sound of their laughter and the quiet moments in between. Not just perfectly posed images, but memories preserved with intention & emotion.

Here’s a little October recap. 🕊️

October has been filled with so many beautiful weddings, but also so many sweet little beginnings. 🫶

It’s been such a full & meaningful month, and I’m so grateful that I get to photograph all of these seasons of life. Not just the big days, but everything in between. 💙

Thank you to everyone who joined me for my lake minis. 🌊

For my newer followers: before weddings became the heart of my business, I started as a family + lifestyle photographer—and that part of my work is still very much alive.

Although my feed leans heavily toward weddings, I’m often photographing 2–4 family, motherhood, or lifestyle sessions throughout the weekends that I don’t have a wedding booked.

I love that my work gets to move between the two: documenting the beauty & emotion of a wedding day, then slowing down to preserve the quieter, everyday seasons of family life.

So while weddings may be what you see most here, family photography will always be a part of my work & one I’m incredibly grateful to continue creating. 🤍 by @memoriesbynary

A beautiful day at Gladdings Farm, where the quiet charm of the countryside meets an elevated, timeless aesthetic.

Golden light, open fields, thoughtful details & the kind of moments that feel beautiful.

Of course, the big moments matter. But my heart is in the moments between them—the way you look at each other when you think no one is watching, the little details, the laughter, the quiet pauses. Those are the moments that make your story yours.

What began as a creative outlet quickly became a business. And now, that business has grown into something even bigger—the launch of @thepacificatelier.

Hosting our very first editorial styled shoot was more than just a beautiful day. It was the realization of a dream, months of planning brought to life and the beginning of something we’re incredibly proud of. Every detail came together more beautifully than I could have imagined & I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

To every talented vendor who shared your artistry and brought this vision to life….thank you a million times. To every creative who trusted us, invested in this experience & spent an entire day creating alongside us in 102° heat, your support truly meant everything.

As someone who once picked up a camera simply because I loved creating, it’s surreal to see that passion evolve into one business… and now another. Moments like these remind me why I took the leap in the first place.

Thank you to everyone who believed in our vision, trusted
@emilybuttronphotography & I to lead and helped make the very first Pacific Atelier styled shoot such an unforgettable success. -Nary Godinez 🦢🫧💫🤍

Your wedding photographer is one of the most important decisions you’ll make throughout your wedding planning.

Don’t choose someone based solely on pricing. Choose someone whose work makes you feel something. Someone who can tell your story in a way that brings you right back to those moments every time you look through your gallery. Ask yourself: Who do I trust to preserve one of the most meaningful days of my life?

Find a photographer you genuinely connect with. Someone who understands your vision, makes you feel comfortable, & celebrates your day right along you. Because to the right photographer, your wedding isn’t just another booking on the calendar. 💙
