There is no limit to where we will go for photography, and almost no limit to what we will do for a shot; whether it be climbing trees, perching atop SUV's, or plastering ourselves onto the surface of an ice pond - if we can see the potential for a cool shot to work, we will do whatever we can to get it. Some couples have called my team & I their photographer-ninjas for the day, a title of which we are honored to hold!
We photograph in both a traditional and directed manner, as well as in a more natural, honest and candid documentary manner. We prefer to work in the latter, but know that the former is just as important to fulfill all aspects wedding day photography (or to fill your mother-in-law's sweet, sweet new-frame-on-the-mantle dreams).
Above all, we love to document the real moments, and aspire to do this in the most natural and authentic way possible on a wedding day. We don't do a ton of blogging or getting wrapped up in the wedding industry; we’re there on your wedding day to photograph these intimate moments for you, and we’d rather let you decide whether or not you'd like to post them all over a magazine publication or not. Don’t get us wrong - we are definitely open to the idea of photography features in wedding magazines! However, I'd rather have that happen at the full consent of the couple, whereas it is their day and their right to share one of the most intimate days of their lives, only if they see fit.

I consider myself a fine art documentary photographer. I love to work with real couples - the couples who want the moments in-between moments captured. I love to work with couples who personalize their wedding day to fit who they really are, and not what a wedding magazine or a cultural norm tells them that it should be.
I have traveled all over the world for photography work, and I have seen many different weddings these past 14 years. I want to make sure to deliver my couples the best, most intimate and candid photographs possible of their wedding day, and in doing so, I make sure to interview couples to see if we are the right fit first. I have changed from a quadruple-wedding weekend kind of gal to only (very purposely) booking one (or maybe two) wedding(s) per weekend, as long as the fit is right. That being said, it is very important to me to talk with the couples in-depth about what they envision for their wedding. I treat every wedding as though it is the most important day, and I care for people I meet through wedding photography as though they are friends, and sometimes tend to form great bonds with couples because of this!
Finally, and most importantly, if you ask me to replicate 275 Pinterest wedding photographs to make your wedding day look almost the exact same as the wedding of someone else on the internet, I am not the right fit for you.
