We met in high school and went to Prom as our very first date. As teenagers we were just happy to have a date to the dance. What we didn't know is that we had stumbled into a lifelong love. We built this beautiful life together with a perfect daughter and on weekends we get to celebrate your love.
We believe great stories are meant to be told, and yours is no exception.

We come from a long line of great love stories. We saw our parents and grandparents build beautiful lives and we wouldn't be who we are today without them. There are photos on the walls and polaroids bent at the corners that show who they were and where we came from. These photos are still with us, even though some of the people in them aren't.
This is the core of what drives our work. One day you'll be your grandchild's favorite photo.
We think weddings should be FUN and our goal is to make you feel so relaxed and at ease that you can let go and enjoy every minute of the day.
We pose you when we need to pose, but we also give you space to interact with your people and eat an hors d'oeuvre. You can trust us to capture the magic and chaos that happens on a wedding day. Your job? That's to have fun & get married!
Meet Michayla— your Lead photographer.
Romance novel obsessed, Mom, lover of OAT matcha lattes, & the glowing colors of film. Could talk for hours about Taylor Swift. Always ready to book a plane ticket.
I've always considered myself to be an artistic person. From writing songs in my bedroom as a teenager about love that I hadn't even experience yet, to setting up my dolls for photo shoots, I wanted to create in any way possible. The dream sort of dies when you get older and feel pressured to become an accountant. When I found photography again, I knew I wanted to document people in love. I always believed in romance and magic and sparkling things. I couldn't think of a more perfect place to capture those things than at a wedding. I love every moment spent in the hustle and bustle of your wedding day. I love documenting your families and creating portraits that your grandkids will see. It's special and meaningful and something so profound. I don't know if I'll ever find the words to explain how important it is to me.
So, here I am, living this little dream, in a little house, with my little family. And I didn't become an accountant ;)
meet Logan — your Lead videographer.
Music connoisseur, king of candids & film, father of the year. Could also talk for hours about Taylor Swift. Always ready with a dad joke.
I was on tour with my rock band, flipping through a book of photography in the backseat of a van with Miles Davis blaring in my headphones when the magic of photography first clicked in my mind. I realized that to watch any scene unfold is a singularly unique experience; no one else on earth is watching that moment from that perspective. But if I press my camera to my eye, that unique experience can suddenly be shared with the rest of the world. Inside a camera there’s a wild magic that can transform the deeply personal into the deeply communal.
It was originally the unpredictability of street photography that lured me behind the camera, but it didn’t take long for me to recognize the perfect storm of romance, beauty, and chaos that was present on a wedding day. There is no better moment to wield the hidden magic within a camera than when two people are declaring their love in front of their friends and family, and there is nowhere I’d rather be than right there, with a camera to my eye and with the film rolling so that I can share that singularly unique perspective with the world.
“We loved how they captured
the in between moments —they're the ones we will cherish the most.”
