ALEXIS FURY

Hi, I’m Alexis! I skillfully captures the magic behind the scenes of intimate life events, ensuring a 24-hour turnaround time for raw footage. Day of Bestie is your personal paparazzi for you special day. We’re dedicated to capturing the small, intimate moments and the OMG memories. A content creator does not replace a traditional photographer or videographer but rather works along side them, snapping behind-the-scenes candids you’ll be able to relive the next day!

MARY CATHERINE JOINER

I joined Day of Bestie in March 2024 after responding to Alexis’s Instagram story looking for second shooters—and I’ve loved every minute since! What I cherish most is playing a small role in people’s biggest moments: capturing the quiet magic of wedding days, engagements, vows, baby showers, and all the beautiful in-betweens, while connecting with amazing people and honoring each unique love story. When I’m not shooting with DOB, I’m busy practicing energy/natural resources law, teaching VersaClimber classes at ToneBR, spending time with family, or supporting local community initiatives.

KAYLEN THORNTON

Hi, I'm Kaylen! I joined Day of Bestie in January 2025, bringing seven years of organizational expertise from my full-time role at LSU to help Alexis keep everything running smoothly. I handle emails, coordination, phone calls, and scheduling behind the scenes, while also jumping in to capture authentic wedding and event moments with my iPhone—focusing on the real, heartfelt stories unfolding. My wedding journey began in 2021 as a videographer, so this role feels like the perfect fit and my true passion. I'm happily married to Caleb, and we're proud parents to our two sweet kiddos, Sophia and Henry. Excited to help make your day magical—both organized and beautifully captured! ♥︎

    I’m Jen! I’m a graduate student at Nicholls State University and a mom of 2. I work in youth outreach and advocacy during the week, and on weekends I capture the magic of love stories through wedding content creation. I’m all about connection, community, and celebrating people at every stage of life! My favorite part of a wedding day is the first kiss and walk back down the aisle, and I cannot survive a wedding day without a crispy fountain coke!

  • Kathryn Devillier

    My name is Kathryn DeVillier, and I joined Day of Bestie this year after DOB captured content for my wedding in May. I fell in love with the way they documented such a special day, and it instantly felt like something I wanted to be part of for other brides. I’m a 24-year-old soon-to-be first-time mom, dog lover, travel enthusiast, and hopeless wedding romantic. I’m based in Lafayette and so excited to be here!

  • Gracelyn Farrar

    Hi, I’m Gracelyn! My work in journalism led me to discover my passion for storytelling through content creation and social media management. Now as a Baton Rouge-based content creator with Day Of Bestie, I get to capture the real details and joy-filled moments that make your events so special.  From candid laughs to emotional exchanges, I focus on documenting the moments you didn’t even realize were happening—then turning them into content you can relive and share almost instantly. I can’t wait to celebrate with you and help bring your stories to life!

  • Ashley Garner

    Ashley G. Garner is a New England–based photographer and content creator who discovered wedding content creation after her own wedding in 2024. After asking a friend to capture candid behind-the-scenes moments on a phone, she was deeply moved by how those real, unscripted clips brought the day back to life. Inspired by that experience, Ashley now helps couples preserve those same authentic moments from their wedding day. With over 14 years of professional photography experience and a background in Fine Art and Art History, she brings an artist’s eye and a storyteller’s heart to every celebration.  

  • Julie Milne

    Hi, I’m Julie! I’ve been working with Day of Bestie since November 2024 after Alexis and I connected and became immediate friends. My experience includes working as a senior portrait photographer in the Baton Rouge area since 2011 along with 8 years of experience in video production.  Connecting with people is my favorite part of a wedding day. Whether it’s the couple, their parents, the bridal party or vendors -  I just love sharing their joy! I also love bringing fun and levity to the day through content. When I’m not working, you can find me at home trying a new crafty hobby and hanging out with my kiddos.

I’ve been obsessed with the art of storytelling since I was a little kid — turning fleeting moments into memories that last forever. That’s exactly why I’m here: to capture and tell your unique story with heart and authenticity.
