We believe in the beauty of marriage. We love photographing weddings because we love having the opportunity to document the first day of a love story that will impact generations for decades upon decades. We love that we have the privilege of serving & loving our couples! Our style is relational & personal; we form a lasting relationship with our couples, and we’ve found that facilitating this kind of excellent experience for our couples allows them to be relaxed and truly in the moment on their wedding day. Our couples never have to worry about what we’re doing & oftentimes they’ll tell us they didn’t even know we were there when we captured a particularly emotional candid image that stops them in their tracks. They’re confident we will capture joyful, romantic, and emotional moments in a timeless style that will allow them to relive their wedding day & share their unique story for decades to come!

Happy is the man who finds a true friend, and far happier is he who finds that true friend in his wife.

We have experienced firsthand in our own marriage how wedding images have the ability to sweep us back & place us in the moment on our wedding day when we swayed to our first dance- everyone in the room seeming to fade away like we were the only two there, when we walked back down the aisle as husband and wife unable and unwilling to ever wipe the smiles from our faces, when we watched as our grandparents swung around and danced to the jitterbug- their 50 plus years of marriage serving as an inspiration to so many. These moments are fleeting, but their impact lasts because we, as wedding photographers, have the awesome responsibility & ability to say, “This moment lives forever.”

Now that we have been photographing weddings for eight years and we have a daughter & a son, our love for photographing weddings has matured & strengthened. When we see the bride walk down the aisle on her dad’s arm, we can see through her mother’s & father’s eyes as they simultaneously see a beautiful woman that they’re so incredibly proud of AND the little girl in pigtails giggling as she ran down the halls of their home as a toddler. We can see stories as they play out before our lenses &, in those moments, we know they’ll be impactful for so many reasons, some of which we won’t know until a beloved family member has passed on (sometimes only a few weeks after the wedding day). This is not only how we make a living; this means something to us. We love our couples, we want them to have an amazing experience leading up to their wedding day, we want to treat them like absolute gold on their wedding day, we want to go above & beyond as wedding photographers, and we want their wedding images to be treasured family heirlooms, classic & timeless, always a constant beloved treasure that will allow them to relive their wedding day & strengthen their bond as a married couple as they navigate life together.

When we aren't working, you can find us chasing around our kids, cuddling up on the couch together half falling asleep (Josh) half watching a thriller or comedy on Netflix, and going for walks with our two silly pugs.
Our work is timeless, classic, and photojournalistic with an editorial twist. Our goal is that every couple whose wedding we photograph has a phenomenal experience with us and can relive their wedding day- every little detail- through the photos we provide. We want our couples to feel relaxed, comfortable, and able to truly be themselves in front of our cameras, which is why we love getting to know people personally so we can put them at ease & allow them to interact naturally during their engagement photos & all throughout their wedding day. We absolutely love that we get to photograph the memories that will build a legacy for our couples!
