Anna + Brian carried themselves with class and confidence. When they walked into a room they did it with such graceful class with a touch of spunk (laughter, silliness, etc). They moved through their wedding day with ease and joy, taking in each moment as it unfolded. They did so because they knew who they were and what was important to them, and knew in the end those things were all that mattered. They trusted us to capture it all, which gave them the freedom to be who they were and enjoy every moment. 

Sophisticated, classy, stylish, creative, joyful, confident, graceful, thoughtful, intentional are all words we would use when describing Anna + Brian. Two people that don’t question who they are today because they value where they have come from and have visions of where they are going. They have faith in themselves to get there and trust the people around them. Working with them was a dream because this trust and confidence allowed them to be fully present, taking in every moment as it happened, with laughter and smiles along the way.

Daniela + Tim - Columbus Ohio Engagement

October has been good to us. We usually have too many shoots and not enough sunny days. The stars aligned and this year the sun has been shining bright on just the right days. The light in Columbus on this evening with Daniela + Tim couldn't have been any better. 

We spent our evening strolling through Inniswood Botanical Gardens, sipping some wine and then chasing the sun downtown for some long boarding. Best part of the night, we ended it together at Condado. Our favorite tacos, and two new friends. Nothing better. 

Introducing The Covenant Sessions

Love grows.  Love changes.  Love is easy.  Love is hard.  Love is worth it.

A little over nine years ago, Mindy and I made a promise. This promise was made between the two of us, but also between us and God. Even more than a promise, it was a covenant; a sacred bond that cannot be broken. It goes far deeper than the feelings we have for each other, which ebb and flow with the daily current of life. We made a commitment to stay with, support, and love each other through thick and thin, every day from here on out.

We take this commitment seriously, and believe this covenant is meant to be celebrated. Not just ours, but every marriage covenant. Committing yourself to one other person for the rest of your life is hard, but oh man, is it good. Celebrate your marriage. Show it off to the world. Cling to your spouse, make your relationship your priority. If you have kids, teach them how to love by showing them how you love. Give the world a reason to be hopeful.

We're excited to announce The Covenant Sessions, new series we're launching this year, to coincide with our TEN year anniversary. We'll be offering sessions on select dates, in select cities around the country throughout the year. This is where we'll be, and when:

The Covenant Sessions are our way of celebrating the marriage relationship that we value so much. We believe the stories of couples who are in it for the long haul are beautiful, and that they're worth sharing. Couples have photos taken to celebrate their engagement, and everyone has photos taken to remember their wedding, but too often people forget to give their relationship the credit deserves after the honeymoon is over and the real work begins. We love highlighting these milestones, and we think life after the wedding deserves it's own place in the spotlight.

Shoot us an email for more information about booking a session on one of these dates. Availability is extremely limited.

2015 - Year In Review

Every year we grow. Every year we learn something new. Every year we make so many new friends, and form bonds with couples that transcend their wedding days. Every year we're more proud of the work we've created, and this year is no exception. Twenty fifteen had it's fair share of challenges, but it was also an incredible year of growth, both as artists and as partners. Mindy and I have been so encouraged and blessed this year, and we have so many people to thank for making all of this possible. This thing we call our job is truly, sincerely, so much more than that.

Taylor + Greg - Brewmaster's Gate Wedding

We’re honestly not even sure where to begin with this wedding. Maybe we should jump right to the end... As we were leaving the reception, we told Taylor that this is the wedding we would have if we could do ours over again. Not just because of the incredible aesthetics, but because of the emotional depth and care given to every detail. Taylor + Greg are two of the most genuine people, and it’s clear by the friends and family they are surrounded by, that their hearts are big enough for everyone around them. You’ll see images throughout this wedding that showcase the love and sincerity that make Taylor and Greg who they are (like the unique, custom pins made with a phrase specific to each and every guest).

Now, speaking of the aesthetics, every little detail was absolutely expertly executed. Each detail was designed and hand made by either Taylor or her family and friends, in a masterclass in collaboration. They absolutely nailed each piece. Brewmaster’s Gate is an old, empty building in the Brewery District of Columbus. And importantly, it’s not a wedding venue. In fact, it’s unoccupied. The first time we saw the building, it was being used as a makeshift parking garage, and was dirty and raw. It’s an amazing, huge space surrounded by windows. Taylor saw the potential, and the blank slate of a building was filled with entire structures hand built out of corrugated, galvanized steel and natural wood elements. It was like our own personal aesthetic was somehow extracted from our brains and turned into a wedding theme. Clearly Taylor has impeccable taste.

The cool factor was on 11.
