A Little More About Us
We are High School sweethearts who’ve been married for 21 amazing years. We’re the proud parents of 3 wonderful kids, who own our whole hearts. We're also
'Humans" to 2 fluffy and adorable dogs, Lucy & Dotty.
Life for us is all about seeking after the simple joys—home-cooked meals, camping under the stars, surfing waves, or carving slopes in the winter. We love anything that gets us outdoors, whether it’s sitting around a campfire, hiking through the woods, or chasing sunsets. Being outdoors helps us to feel more connected to God, something that is very important to us.
Our love for Art, Adventure and Travel, has taken us down some amazing paths in life. Our Photography journey original started with the purchase of an old 35mm film camera that we picked up at a yard sale. Documenting our little adventures was a fun hobby that unintentionally morphed into not only our passion, but also a very rewarding full-time career.
We spent almost a decade living full-time in Hawaii, and it was such an amazing place to raise our small family. We have an amazing, supportive community, a small town, with a big heart. We lived in the Laie Oahu, the kind of place where everyone knows each other, and shoes are optional. In 2021 we made the difficult decision to live part-time in Utah. This was no easy choice but, in the end, it turned out to be an amazing opportunity for growth and gave us some much-needed variety. Utah with its stunning mountains and seemingly end-less outdoor adventure opportunities, has a magic all its own. Both places hold a special place in our hearts, and we feel very blessed to call them both home.
Photography is more than just a job for us—it’s our way of capturing life’s raw, beautiful, and authentic moments and satisfying our never ending need to create. Whether it’s the warmth of a wedding day, the magic of a couple in love, or the quiet details that make life extraordinary, we’re here to tell your story in a way that’s real, timeless, and uniquely you.
Let’s create something unforgettable together!
How are photos delivered?
All photos are delivered via on-line gallery, where you can download photos and order prints. You will be able to share this gallery with any one you would like.
What is your turn-around time?
One thing that sets us apart from most wedding photographers is our turnaround time. We will have your full online gallery up within 14 days. This does not mean that we sacrifice on quality. We take the time to edit every single photo to be just right. For packages that include videography, wedding videos will be complete within 30-60 days.
Will we receive a print release?
Yes! All of our packages include a print release. You are free to print, post, or reproduce photos however you’d like.
How many Photos will we get?
We don't like putting a limitation on the number of photos we give back. We give back more than your typical photographer (somewhere between 75-150 per hour depending on which package is booked). We don't believe in giving you a certain amount and then making you pay more for the rest. We edit everything, delete the duplicates and weird faces and send the rest to you.
Do you travel?
YES! We are residents of both Hawaii and Utah, but we sometimes travel out of state (and sometimes out of the country) for weddings. We Love traveling, so we will travel almost anywhere for your wedding. All of our wedding packages will have travel fess built into the cost.
What is your deposit amount?
Our deposit amount is 40% of total cost. Deposits Can be made via PayPal, Venmo, or personal check. Once the deposit is received, we’re all yours!
Can we create custom packages?
Absolutely! Each wedding is unique and every couple has different needs and wants. We are happy to create a custom package specific to your wedding dream.
We are awkward in front of a camera, do you help with that?
Absolutely! Don't worry, most everyone feels that way in front of a camera. Fortunately we have had many years of experience helping couples feel natural. Our goal with posing is to make it fun, natural and comfortable. We don't force anything, we don't put you through any awkward poses that you would never do in "real life". We will however, give you tips on how to pose, where to stand etc. Most poses won't be facing into the camera, and we promise we'll never make you say "CHEESE"
