we are for you if

You’re not drawn to a day that feels rushed or overly structuredβ€”you want space to actually experience it. The quiet moments, the in-between laughter, the way the air feels right before you say your vows. Whether that looks like an intimate gathering along the lakeshore or something simple and outdoors, what matters most to you is that it feels genuine, not staged.

You’re looking for more than just someone to document itβ€”you want someone in your corner. Someone who can guide you through the process, help shape the day in a way that feels natural, and create space for it all to unfold without pressure. So when you look back, it doesn’t just look beautifulβ€”it feels like you were fully there.

Capturing every meaningful moment from your favorite day ever

WATCH OUR FILMS

What’s Included

Our photo and film collections are thoughtfully designed to give you the flexibility to create a wedding experience that feels completely your own. While coverage begins with a more intimate 4-hour option, couples have the ability to expand into a full, multi-day experience with up to 14 hours of coverageβ€”allowing space for rehearsal dinners, day-after adventures, and everything in between.

No matter the level of coverage you choose, every couple receives the same intentional guidance and support throughout the entire process. We begin with a pre-wedding consultation to connect and understand your vision, followed by unlimited planning assistanceβ€”from location scouting and permits to building a custom itinerary tailored specifically to your elopement. This includes personalized recommendations for places to stay, dine, and explore, ensuring your day feels seamless and unforgettable.

On your wedding day, we approach both photo and film with a documentary mindsetβ€”capturing moments as they naturally unfold while gently guiding you when needed so you feel comfortable and fully present.

Following your celebration, you’ll receive a curated online gallery of your final images and videos, along with a cinematic highlight film (ranging from 4–7+ minutes, with options to extend). For couples who choose expanded collections, additional offerings such as extended coverage, longer films, and heirloom productsβ€”including albums, prints, and custom keepsakesβ€”can be added to further preserve your story.

All travel is included, allowing you to focus entirely on the experience while we take care of the rest.

frequently asked questions

Do you travel?
Absolutely! We love exploring new locations and capturing couples in the settings that are most meaningful to them. Whether it’s an adventurous elopement in the mountains, a destination wedding on the coast, or a multi-day celebration across statesβ€”or even countriesβ€”we’ll be there to document it all. Travel is part of the adventure, and we’re excited to guide you every step of the way.

What if weather changes?
We embrace the unexpected. A little rain or snow can create some of the most magical, intimate moments, and we’re always prepared with backup plans and alternative locations. Your day will be beautiful no matter the forecast, and we’ll guide you to make the most of every situation.

How far in advance should we book?
We recommend reaching out as soon as you’ve set a dateβ€”especially for popular locations and peak seasons. This ensures we can secure your day and begin helping you craft a timeline and plan that feels thoughtful, intentional, and stress-free.

Can we customize coverage?
Absolutely. Every couple’s story is unique, and our packages are designed to be flexible. Whether you want to add additional coverage hours, include an engagement session, or build a multi-day experience, we’ll work together to create a package that fits your vision perfectly.

How does photo + video work together?
Our photo and film work in tandem to tell your story in full. While photos capture timeless, candid moments, video adds movement, sound, and emotion to relive the day. Together, they create a seamless record of your wedding that feels authentic, cinematic, and entirely you.

Do you offer multi-day coverage?
Yes! Multi-day weddings and destination celebrations are some of our favorite experiences to document. From rehearsal dinners to adventure elopements or farewell brunches, we’ll craft a timeline across days that captures the full story while keeping the experience relaxed and intentional.

What’s included in your planning support?
We’re more than your photographersβ€”we’re your planning guides. We help with timeline creation, location scouting, permit guidance, vendor recommendations, and expert advice for pacing your day. You’ll never feel alone in figuring out the logistics, and every detail will be thoughtfully considered.

How long will it take to receive our final images and video?
We carefully curate and edit every moment to ensure the final product meets our highest standards. Typically, photo galleries are delivered in 3 months and the video will be delivered in 4 months. While it may feel like a wait, we promise the result will be well worth it.

Do you provide albums or prints?
Yes! Each online gallery includes the ability to order prints directly, and we also offer custom albums and heirloom products to beautifully preserve your memories for years to come if interested.

Do we need to be comfortable in front of the camera?
Not at all. We guide you throughout the day with gentle direction and natural posing techniques, capturing authentic, intimate moments while ensuring you feel comfortable and confident. We blend prompts to allow you two to interact with each other in a way that feels natural while also allowing space for you two to be your authentic selves.

Can we see examples of full weddings or elopements?
Absolutely. We encourage couples to view full galleries or films so you can see how we tell a story from start to finish. Every day is unique, but this gives a clear picture of our approach and attention to detail.
