Photography studio

Brandi Autry has opened a photography studio in the Cleveland community.

She got her first taste of photography in classes at South Johnston High School. Autry graduated from Fayetteville Technical College with a degree in advertising and graphic design.

“The last 10 years I have studied with multiple photographers while developing a style of my own,” she said. “My business began at home. After growing out of that space, I moved to my new studio at 40/42.”

Autry specializes in wedding, portrait and event photography. She offers outdoor photo sessions at her home. A native of the McGee’s Crossroads community, Autry also designs albums, custom mats and frames, invitations and announcements.

“The main goal of my studio is to provide artistic portraits that capture real personality,” Autry said. “Anyone can take a picture, but I want to provide my clients with images that will be treasured for generations to come — at an affordable price. I feel as though my photography is fun while also timeless.”

Brandi K. Autry Photography & Design is in Suite D at 41 Glen Road near Food Lion. It is above Fonville Morisey and Radiance Salon. Hours are by appointment only. For more information, call (910) 850-1981 or visit www.brandiautry.com.
