Owner & Chief
Photographer
 Corey
Pro Photography & Media Inc. is owned and operated
by New England native Benjamin L.
Corey.
"Corey" is a professional, award
winning photographer who has spent nearly a decade looking
through the lens in 40 countries while capturing amazing
images. A diverse, multi-talented photographer; he has a
trademark reputation for capturing natural smiles, brilliant
colors and his fresh creativity-- both in the shooting and
editing phases of his photographic work. He is the previous/founding
owner of Custom Designed Weddings of Alexandria, Virginia.
In addition to being one of Rhode Island's
top wedding photographers he is emerging as one of Rhode
Island's leaders in senior portraits, while he also serves
a variety of professional clients nationally. Corey is a
current producer of photography for a wide variety of national
companies, bands, magazines, and newspapers. Some of his
professional clients have included Perfect Wedding Magazine,
Real Wedding Magazine, Boston Globe, New York Times, Keller
Williams, rhodeisland..gov, Lewiston/Auburn Public Theatre,
U.S Air Force, and Rep. Seth Berry among others.
Corey also serves as the Rhode Island State
Coordinator for the Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation,
which provides free infant bereavement photography to families
who suffer the loss of an infant or child. We believe photography
can be used as a positive tool to help families grieve,
heal, and remember.
Corey is also an international children's
author with his first book currently on sale in five different
countries.
Finally, as an added bonus to your wedding;
Corey is a former Youth Pastor and Seminarian- so if something
happened to your minister on the wedding date, he is fully
able to put the camera down and get you married!

Operations
Coordinator
 Tracy
Corey currently serves as the Operations Coordinator
for Corey Pro Photography & Media. Yes- as the name
suggest, Tracy is the wife of Corey himself! However, Tracy
doesn't simply hold a "token" position on the
team; any of our previous brides will tell you that her
job is probably the most important. As Operations Coordinator,
Tracy manages the hundreds of details that go into a successful
wedding shoot, such as day of coordination with ministers,
coordinators and family. Tracy is also the person who manages
the "shot list" to ensure the photographers have
captured all the desired shots of the day, and manages the
hectic "group shot" process- ensuring everything
flows quickly, smoothly, and that everyone's tie is straight!
Simply put, Tracy's job is to handle all the small details
of the wedding day so that the photographers can focus on
the artistic aspect of capturing each moment. You may also
see Tracy running around the reception as a second shooter-
helping to capture fun and candid photos of all the wedding
guests.
And yes, it is in fact true that Tracy
met her husband while he was shooting a wedding in October
2005. Turns out she was the lucky guest!
By day, Tracy is an Associate Program Director
for a Juvenile Risk Reduction program and as a Licensed
Clinical Professional Counselor, she also operates a small
private practice. (Yes, she is accepting new patients!)

Team
Photographer
SH is a rare
gem! Her first experience with Corey Pro was as a client
who selected Corey Pro for her wedding. At Corey Pro, we
clicked with Shanna immediately, and quickly came to realize
she was the missing team member we were searching for. We're
excited about her addition to the team, and know that you're
going to absolutely love working with her!
She began her professional photography
career at VillageSoup in Midcoast Rhode Island, where she
worked for three years. Her MPA nominated photojournalism
has a hallmark romantic-realist style, and her creativity
is contagious-- it's fun to work with her! There is nothing
so memorable as a photograph, and she will work with you
to realize your own unique vision to make your photographs
truly special.
She attended University of Massachusetts at Farmington for
a double major in Art and Creative Writing. She's traveled
extensively internationally and has lived in South America
and Europe. She's split her adult life between both East
and West Coasts. Miller-McNair is an artist, author and
blissful newlywed; she lives with her husband Jesse in Rhode
Island
