LOVE, BRITTNEY & CALEB

We're honored you are here and considering us as a vendor for your wedding day! Caleb and I are so grateful that we are able to work together serving couples in one of the most exciting seasons of their lives!

At home, we've got two kiddos, Caden (2) and Cora (3 months old), two cats, and a dog... our hands are full! Ha! But God has sure blessed our little family and we are so thankful for all the ways He has provided for us!

We are obsessed with Chipotle, family time outside is a must, and when we've got a chance to go out on a date night we take it! 

Caleb and I are excited to get to know you and hope this website is a helpful resource as you make wedding decisions and consider one of the biggest aspects of your day - the photos & videos that you will remember it by.




GET TO KNOW BRITTNEY & CALEB

welcome

watch the video

After photographing more than a hundred weddings over the past few years, we know that it makes a huge difference in the end product if we get to know each and every couple personally! We want your photos and/or video to reflect who you two are as a couple along with tell your story. So if your package includes an engagement session, we'll get to know you guys there! If you have a video only package, we'll set up a zoom meeting prior to your wedding to chat! We want to hear everything—how you met, funny first date stories, and how you got engaged!

the process

We're here as a resource beyond photography/videography—whether you're looking for engagement session outfit recommendations, timeline advice, or vendor referrals.

Even if you're working with a wedding planner or you're planning a simple wedding, there are likely still a lot of moving pieces left leading up to your big day. We've photographed more than 150 weddings in the past few years and we're happy to share everything we've learned along the way! 

Wedding Advice

We’re big fans of engagement sessions for a few reasons. Not only do they allow you to get comfortable in front of the camera, they also give you the opportunity to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you. 

Engagement sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. We’ve found that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” time to take your photos. We normally plan sessions based on a particular “look” a couple has in mind, spring flowers for example, or based on schedules. 

Engagement Session

We check-in about two months before the wedding to start chatting about timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, special traditions and anything else we should know about your big day. 

While we normally don't send this questionnaire until closer to the wedding, please don't hesitate to let us know if you have questions during the planning process!

Wedding Day Prep

It's finally here! The day the two of you say "I Do" and dance the night away surrounded by your family and friends. 

Just know we're excited to celebrate and capture your wedding day. It's going to be awesome.

The Big Day

You can expect your photos to be delivered via an online gallery within four weeks of your wedding and videos are delivered within four to six months. We'll be sure to give you the information you need to keep your photos and/or videos safe and sound, too!

We hope the relationship doesn't end after we deliver your photographs. We want to hear about the adventures of married life. And if you decide to have kids, we'd love to document your growing family!

Looking to have a traditional wedding day timeline without a first look? Below you can find samples of how we lay these days out. There is something fun about seeing each other for the first time at the alter!

One of the best ways to make your wedding memories last is by ordering an album. These high quality professionally designed albums come in a variety of linen & leather colors. These aren’t the same albums your parents wedding photos came in. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and look incredible on coffee tables.

All albums must be prepaid before design begins. Albums typically take between 4 to 6 weeks to complete and include three rounds of revision. Albums may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day.

ALBUMS

All of our packages that include photography, include a complimentary engagement session. It takes time for most couples to warm up to being photographed and understand how we pose. Timelines can be pretty tight on weddings days and 30 minutes may be all we have for portraits - which is why we’ve found that wedding day portraits turn out so much better when couples do engagement sessions ahead of time.

Sessions also allow you to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you (and even include pets!) While they’re great for save-the-dates, we’ve taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to a few days before the wedding.

how do payments work?

This is such a great question! The engagement session is something that Caleb and I are super passionate about! We added it to all of our wedding photo packages as a complimentary item because we believe this time is crucial to get to know you two as a couple! We have such a limited amount of time on the wedding day to get all of the magical photos and we don't want to spend any of that time getting to know each other, teaching our posing style, etc. 
We totally understand that sometimes it doesn't work for your schedule - so we never require a couple to meet up for a session, but there isn't an option to swap this out. 

can we swap out the engagement session?
