Edward Miller

Hi, I am Edward! I have been taking photos since I was 5 years old. Of course, back then it was with a film camera and capturing landscapes, buildings and my favorite animals. My passion really kicked in once I started college at Southwest Mississippi Community College in 2012 as the college yearbook editor. If I wanted vibrant and life-filled yearbook photos it was up to me to capture those moments. Whatever happened on campus was documented by my camera; portraits, sporting events, and student government activities. With a Canon Rebel T3i kit in hand, community members and classmates started asking for senior portraits, family photos, and finally WEDDING DAY photos! Once the wedding coverage started, it only increased year after year. In 2016 I was first introduced to wedding videography as an assistant to Hannah H, an awesome photographer/videographer friend based in NOLA! From that day on I took on the challenge of learning the art of videography. After a few weddings it became clear that something was different about wedding videography; it provides the ability to capture and tell a couple’s love story in a way that photography can’t. With video, you can hear the joyful, tear-filled moments; fathers and grooms gasping at the sight of their beautiful bride, shaky voices giving heartfelt vows, the cheers as the best man toasts the newly wed couple. A few years later at the end of 2021, I left my “day job” at The University of Southern Mississippi to become fully committed to serving couples, individuals, and families any day of the week.

Hailey Reid

Hi I am Hailey! I love to photograph and film life’s events! Fun fact: Edward and I just got married March 25th 2023! As a newlywed bride I can totally relate to the anxiety and excitement during the wedding planning process. I love capturing weddings and seeing each bride live out the happiest day of her life. Edward and I love Disney! Like, if we are not photographing or filming, we are probably in Disney World! If you have a Disney trip planned, hit us up. We would love to hang out in the parks!

Tiffany Miller-Thomas

Hello, I’m Tiffany Thomas! I live in the small town/big city of Hattiesburg, MS with the love of my life, Grant and our puppies Kimber and Thor. I fell in love with photography in college at the University of Southern Mississippi when I was taking graphic design classes. After marrying my sweet husband in 2019, I became obsessed with the beauty and emotion of weddings. I decided I wanted to capture that feeling of endless love forever!

Brandon Williams

Hi, I am Brandon! I love capturing special moments in time. Weddings are probably my favorite life event to capture! However, recently I had the privilege of documenting the engagement process for couples. It is such a joy to see ladies say yes when he pops the question! I recently married the love of my life, Beniria! We had such an amazing experience having the Dear Magnolia Team capture our wedding day! We can’t wait to capture yours!
