Behind the Lens
ABOUT US
Known for: watching sitcoms, not taking ourselves too seriously, 2+ coffees/day and loving our job a little too much.
When we first started photography we never thought it would come to play as big of a role in our life as it has, what started as a weekend hobby turned into a continuous search for something deeper and grander with every amazing couple we have the opportunity to photograph.
While we never like to take ourselves too seriously, we recognize the importance of every moment and seek to create photographs that transport you to the moment of your wedding, using the love we have for each other and our family to guide us.
All those emotions you'll feel on your wedding day, the love for your future spouse, for your family, the joy you're filled with just thinking of your wedding day, we've been there. We've felt that and we use those feelings to create intentional imagery that will remind you of those emotions for the rest of your life.

about us
Known for: khaki pants, rolled up sleeves, and listening to way to many podcasts.
Guys out there I want to let you in on a little secret: it’s the secret to having a great marriage and a great relationship. Here is what you do, you put on that favorite button down of yours and get her in the car and drive to HomeGoods, because when you go on HomeGoods dates, things are ALWAYS good at home.
And for y’all thinking “Is this guy really going to cry at my wedding?” Most likely. Zoey and I don’t just photograph weddings, we get to know you, we pray for you, and we help you slow down and enjoy every part of your fairytale day, so yeah, I’m not too manly to admit I’ll tear up when you walk down the aisle.

about us
Known for: his green eyes, gorgeous brown curls, and only wearing pants if 100% necessary.
First off I have to be honest with y'all, I’m not the one writing this, my parents are. I'm not being lazy its just that I can't actually read and right now is my nap time -- and I whole-heartedly believe that nap time is the most important time of the whole day. Without it I am grouchy and nobody likes it when I am grouchy. Plus, during nap time I get to use my favorite binky and cuddle with mommy or daddy, and nothing is better than holding on to the ones you love

We love trying new things so our favorite meal changes often. Right this moment it's this awesome make-your-own ramen kit we found at Target. So good!

Our sweet little guy. Beckham is our tiny best friend and we are completely obsessed with him. His hobbies include: tossing rocks in lakes, watching too much Paw Patrol and assisting with photoshoots anytime he can.

Our fur baby, Poppy. She's a total mess, eats anything she can find (food or not) and loves to sleep with her butt in our faces. She has good qualities too, we promise.

Naps and sitcoms. We are definitely stay in people so its not uncommon for us binge watch New Girl for 8+ hours on a lazy day.

The Pacific North West is very high on our "Places I'd Retire" list but it's hard to decide between there or Charleston SC. They are so different from each other but each have so much character. We would happily wake up to the PNW lakes or the Charleston Spanish moss anyday.

The toast. We love hearing your love stories told by the people who love you most. You never know what you're going to get, its usually 50% a recount of the sweetest moments of your relationship + 50% the most hilarious stories ever told.
Maybe its 20%-80%.
