STYLE

Our style is a creative blend of documentary photojournalism and beautiful portraiture.

During moments when events are happening, we stay out of the way and capture the moments as they unfold. We may ask you to step into better lighting, but we will never stage a photo of an event that we believe would otherwise never happen.

During down times, we love capturing beautiful portraits of our couples and the bridal party. Before shooting weddings, we began by shooting studio and commercial portraits. Shooting portraits outside of weddings has taught us to really know how to pose people to make them look naturally amazing. It has also taught us to create and control light to create mood and atmosphere.

When it comes to lighting, we don’t have a preference between using natural light or our strobes. It all depends on what is available and what looks best. To us, our on-location lights are our paintbrushes and light our paint. We get excited about creating images using flash that transform any location to something magical. We’re a bit geeky like that.

But we know it’s hard to get a good sense of a photographer’s style through words, so we gathered some images that showcase our shooting style. We’ve grouped them into the three main types of photography that encompass a full wedding day – details, photojournalism, and portraiture.

DETAILS

Ask any married couple and they’ll tell you that the wedding day goes by so quickly that it’s hard remember much of it. That’s why we believe photography is one of the essential parts of your wedding day. We’re here to capture all of the details so you can remember each aspect of your wedding that you took such care to choose. 

When it comes to shooting details, we strive to make each shot a part of the story by using the surroundings to give context and texture. For example, the first ring shot below was created on top of the mother-of-the-bride’s beaded purse. 

PHOTOJOURNALISM

Telling stories is at the heart of what we do. When we’re not creating detail shots or portraits, we’re always looking to capture the story unfolding around us. 

As photojournalists, we unobtrusively document the moments around us. From laughter and silliness to tears of overflowing emotions to moments of celebration, we’re here to document all of the moments that make up the story of your wedding day.

PORTRAITURE

During times set apart for formal portraits, we take a very different approach from that of photojournalism.

Unless you’re experienced models or just born with that gift, like most people, you’re probably not too confident about posing for photos. That’s why we get into each detail when posing – everything from body posture to the placement of hands – all while making you look amazingly natural. From individual portraits to couples to bridal parties large and small, we take pride in creating portraits that are simply magazine-worthy.

Unless pointed out, you’d probably never think about the poses in the photos below. That’s the magic of posing correctly – it looks more natural than unposed photos! But each of these poses were crafted with attention to detail.
