THE WEDDING COLLECTIONS
We're a group of friends and photographers who continue to fall more and more in love with the process of documenting love stories. And we think weddings are pretty freakin' incredible. To witness, to watch. And to photograph.
And even with a combined 40 years and over 500 weddings between us, that magic never gets old.
Using documentary-style photography, we stick to telling the full story of your day. The people and love that surround you. The planned and unplanned events. The purely candid, and emotional moments, too! And we combine it all with our eye for detail and creative portraiture.
Because you and your future loves deserve timeless, honest, and heartfelt photos of this one magical day.
GET TO KNOW THE PHOTOGRAPHERS
welcome
We love our photos! Looking through them, I can see all of the different emotions from the day captured so well which is exactly what we were hoping for!!
"A DELIGHT TO WORK WITH!"
kind words
- Rachel
The photos captured more than just the typical scenes of the day; they embody the emotions and spirit behind the special occasion. Upon receiving our final photos, we were able to relive the day (and had a hard time paring down which ones we wanted to share with everyone - so many amazing shots!).
"WE WERE ABLE TO RELIVE THE DAY"

You can expect your photos to be delivered via an online gallery within about eight weeks of your wedding. At that time, we'll also send over details about preserving your images through prints and albums.
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.

THE COLLECTIONS
MORE DETAILS
Imagine your grandchildren seeing your wedding album. They see two beautiful people on their wedding day. Curious, they ask you questions about everything. And as you share your stories, you immediately feel the love and joy of that day all over again.
You can't pass your Facebook page down to your grandkids. No, some stories deserve a book — a beautiful, modern, lay-flat album that comes in a variety of linens and leathers, and holds the heart of your wedding day within it. I’ll curate the most evocative images into your own personal, touchable narrative. This is not your grandma’s wedding album (although don’t be surprised if she wants one, too).
ALBUMS
Unless you model for a living, being in front of a camera can feel a little awkward.
We are big fans of engagement sessions for a couple reasons: there’s no better way to feel each other out, and they help warm you up to being photographed all day (wedding days are long!) in a casual, stress-free setting.
And while they’re great for save-the-dates, we've taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to just a few days before the wedding.
Engagement Sessions
Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, we’ll need a completed contract and a 50% non-refundable retainer. If you don’t have a contract yet, just let us know and we’ll send one over! The remaining balance will be due 30 days before the wedding.
We love your work and we’re ready to book! What’s the next step?
Galleries typically include anywhere between 600 and 1200 photos. The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding. Your online gallery will come loaded with fully edited high resolution images you can print anywhere.
How many photos are typically included and can we print the photos ourselves?
We typically add travel fees on to any wedding outside of a 60 mile radius from Seattle, Washington. Fees vary depending on location so ask us for more details.
When do you charge travel fees?
