We met in Boston during an internship for social change. As friends, we began writing poetry side by side in the park, blending our voices. That was our first collaboration.

With poems, photographs, and artwork, we filled the space with things we never said before. We learned how to see each other more deeply — and, slowly, how to see ourselves. 

We’ve searched our whole lives for reflections of ourselves – as disabled, queer, trans, Chinese, adopted, autistic and deaf. We connected on feeling like our identities were too much — or not enough. 

We’ve photographed each other for years — floating in water, breaking binaries, falling in love. Every photo, a love letter to complexity.  

With that we introduce Carys Mei Media; because the stories we were yearning for were the ones we needed to tell ourselves. We share with you a soft landing to arrive as your full self. Together, we built this business from that place: where grief meets beauty, where care meets creation. We want people to feel seen. 

Whether it’s a pet session, a proposal, a portrait, or a moment of reinvention, we meet you where you are. If the camera feels intimidating, we offer warm-up time and gentleness. If you're nervous, we’ll remind you: you don’t have to perform. You already belong.

“At Carys Mei Media, our promise is simple:
We aren’t looking for anything. Just you.”
