About You -

It’s about welcoming us into the tight circle of friends and family that will encompass your wedding day. Taking part in this story of yours is an incredible honor & experience for us, so the more access & collaboration we get from you, the better our work becomes.

We feel incredibly lucky to work with so many open, like-minded couples that rebel against the trends and do things their own way. Because of them, our work flourishes and keeps us going strong & fresh, and for this, we thank them.

What Our Clients Have To Say

 

cory & chris

you guys!!!!! we knew the photos would be amazing...but you exceeded our expectations and then some. i haven't been able to stop looking at them....even the shots where I clearly needed another glass (or ten) of champagne and I have a slight look of terror behind my eyes (those earlier in the day shots, let's be real....) we love you so much - thank you!!!!!!!!!!

kara & austin

Austin and I just wanted to send the biggest thank you for absolutely killing it at our wedding last weekend! we loved your energy and really appreciated your ability to manage our tight schedule, makeup artist's hovering tendencies, and ill-timed family requests (cough cough, my brother who wanted a linkedin photo in the middle of our portrait session). so many of our guests have said "we assumed mike was your friend because of how comfortable he was with everyone" or "mike was so much fun, we loved his dance moves." one of my favorite moments was looking over and seeing my college BFF doing her own personal photoshoot with you. it's clear that you were different from everyone's typical experience of a wedding photographer, which is what we wanted—we couldn't be happier with how it all went down. thanks for being such a great addition to our party!
