About

We shoot on both digital & film cameras in a photojournalistic/documentary style, with a heavy emphasis on the candids of your families and favorite people.

Our packages range between $10,500 and $22,000, depending on guest count and location. The average package our couples book is $14,000

The way your wedding unfolds before our eyes is what we're going to give you, plain and simple. How it felt from the beginning of the day when everyone is all cute and well-behaved until later in the night when the tequila kicked in, the dancefloor gets lit, and all of the moments in-between is what were going for. Because of our approach, our work is naturally candid-heavy with a touch of editorial when the inspo hits.

We’ve been doing this long enough to know that when our clients look back on their photos, what’s going to matter most are the real moments of their loved ones and dearest friends. We shoot from a guest’s perspective, so the more inviting you and your people are with us, the more intimate and genuine our images will naturally be.

On your wedding day, we are a source of calm with cameras and care a lot about making you feel at ease. This is why we gift an engagement session to all of our couples. This time creates trust & comfort, which is essential to us and our work.

As photographers, we genuinely want to feel connected to the people we photograph and the images we create. Emotion drives our work, so give us your willingness to be photographed, and we will give you our best.

Unmatched Skill

Stop looking. You have found the perfect photographer for any and all of your needs. I had the pleasure of working with Chellise for our wedding, and I could NEVER imagine trusting anyone else with such a special day. Chellise's warm + fun personality, her incredible skill + eye, and uncanny ability to capture the spirit of any given moment is unmatched. I would give Chellise a 15 star review if I could. You will not find a photographer better than her.

Amazing!

It was a pleasure working with Chellise and Amber – what a dream team!! We could not have asked for a more wonderful experience for our wedding weekend.

Chellise is a true gem. She is incredibly chill, uber talented behind a camera lens and knows how to capture the absolute rawness of a moment, which is so special and priceless. Working with her made us feel so comfortable and confident that we made an excellent decision to have her document our wedding weekend. Our photos are spectacular, and we are blown away with how everything turned out.

Chellise – we cannot thank you enough for everything you’ve done for us!! The GOAT!

The absolute best.

When we were imagining our wedding photos, we wanted the soul. We wanted the action. We wanted the fringes and the reality and the weird pants creases and the inevitable mess that someone's hair is after 2.5 hours of sweating through your undershirt. But we also wanted to look like goddamn beauty queens and have something that made our parents happy. Enter Mike and Danny on the cameras and Matty on video. They understood the assignment (or maybe wrote the syllabus), and they embodied our wedding vibe so seamlessly that they were guests of honor by the end of the weekend. They drew out the introverts, they amplified the extroverts, they were everywhere they needed to be. Both of our moms still wax poetically about them. And honestly, we'd still love to have a cocktail with them any time. You don't need us to tell you about how good their work is - you can see their portfolio, and it's obvious. But what made this team so special for us is how likeable, how warm, how conscious, and how incredibly additive they were to our weekend and to the feeling in the room. If we ever get around to doing an anniversary party, they're on the guest list.
