Hi there! Welcome to the Millie Holloman Photography blog. Our company has just one name, but we’re an entire team of crazy, creative, passionate, professional photographers. We’re based all over North Carolina (Wilmington, Raleigh, & Charlotte), but we work all over the world. What do we shoot? In one word: Love. Wedding Love. Baby Love. Family Love. Love of details.

We want you to get the most out of your time here, so here are a few helpful tips: Check out the text block above that says: “photographers”.

lights out in hollywood . band

01.31.08 ~ Portraits ~ posted by Millie

Let me introduce you to Jerry, Tim, and Ricky. Together, they are "Lights Out in Hollywood", a new band based in Columbus, Ohio. I heard their EP and let me be the first to tell you . . . it's AMAZING. If they don't become famous, I'll be shocked, honestly. They have plans to record a full length album this summer and will then be taking a national tour with other Christian artists. I'll try to keep you updated on their progress (they have a blog coming very soon). I may be a bit biased, because the drummer, Ricky, is my baby brother. I promise you, though, they have talent oozing out of their pores. I was so honored when they asked me to do a quick photo shoot last week to prepare for their album cover and fliers.

A BIG thanks to the Palace Theatre in Canton for letting us do some of the shoot there. That place is like a DREAM for photographers. Directional lighting everywhere and lots of old rustic beauty. There was a lighting technician on duty that asked, "Dude, why would you want to take pictures back stage?!". Well, here's why...


This crazy organ is famous in Canton. This really funny old guy sits on it and plays before every movie showing. When the movie is about to start, the organ magically begins to sink into the abyss out of site. The organ player waves and everyone claps. This may be the most exciting thing in Canton right now, which is one really good reason for me to come and join all of you in North Carolina.





Halfway through the photo shoot, the band decided to take a quick break to . . . chase some geese. We really have nothing better to do here, I promise. After a bit of scaring harmless animals, they returned to finish the job.


On to a laundromat where we got in trouble. oops. The manager was not too happy when we came in and started shooting instead of asking her. Honest to goodness - I didn't know she was working there! I really thought she was just another customer, because she was folding laundry. Oh, well. I worked my charm a bit and we put some quarters in the machines to give them some business. Getting yelled at was totally worth it for the shots!

Great job guys! I wish you all the best of luck!!!!
