STEP ONE: LET'S BE FRIENDS!

You’ve already said yes to your best friend and now the wedding plans have begun! 

When you are getting ready the morning of your wedding day, it will be a relief to feel like a friend walks through those doors with a camera and not just a random hired vendor, right?! 

 

To make sure you have the best experience on your wedding day, we would love to meet with you and see if we’re the best fit to capture one of the most memorable days of your life!

STEP THREE: LET'S HAVE FUN with your engagement session

We’re so excited to get to know you during your engagement session! We believe it’s actually the MOST important part of your photography experience because it allows us to really get to know one another. During your engagement session, you’ll experience how we shoot and how we handle posing and lighting. This is so important because this is the SECRET to creating a ton of gorgeous, genuine portraits for and on your wedding day! 

 

This session helps you get comfortable in front of the camera, while capturing the joy and love between you and your best friend. Once we are done with your engagement session, you will BOTH be pros at this! You may not believe us now, but just you wait!

STEP TWO: YOU'VE SAID "YES"! ...to your photographers

HOORAY! We're so excited to be a part of this special day that marks the beginning of your lives together! We'll email you the contract along with the deposit fee to ensure your date is secure. Once you’ve crossed all that off your list, now onto the FUN STUFF! You will receive our all-inclusive Bridal Guide and we can start planning for your engagement session!

STEP FOUR: TIMELINE TALK & all the little details

The most impactful decision making you’ll have to make is your wedding day timeline. We’ve seen some great timelines that save wedding days when emergencies arise and we have seen some not so great timelines that cause stress and hurry to an already stress-filled day.

 

To ensure you get all the photos you want, we have a few suggestions of wedding timelines that will be the best fit for you on your day. We will create a custom-made, fine-tuned timeline that allows all the important details to be covered. 

 

We will need certain amounts of time allotted to each portion of the day in order to capture your day in a way that reflects what you have seen of our work! In the event that our custom timeline gets thrown off or it is impossible to give us the desired amount of time for each section of the day, we’ll be as efficient as humanly possible! It is ALWAYS our goal to capture the images that you’ve always dreamed of for your wedding day!

STEP FIVE: HALLELUJAH,
THE DAY IS FINALLY HERE!

Yes! We finally made it! The moment you've been waiting for! After all the planning, it's time to take a deep breath and enjoy every minute of your wedding with your closest friends and family! Photography is more than just images, it's a REAL part of your day. Not only do you deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience. We know wedding days are highly intimate and personal and we want to make sure you have the ability to enjoy every single part of it!
 
Our standard wedding package offers 8 hours shooting time to capture all the details that mark the beginning of your marriage journey. 

STEP SIX: YOUR WEDDING GALLERY ...reliving your memorable moments 

Time to sit back and relive your wedding day! Take a moment with your spouse to look over all the details that made your wedding so special and unique.

 

Every single photo is intentionally chosen and edited to our style while staying true and authentic of your wedding day. Creating a beautiful wedding gallery of your special moments is our goal and we will have them ready one month from your wedding date. (We get it! We're excited for you to see the photos, too!)

 

With up to 900 fully edited high-resolution digital images, you will have plenty to choose as your favorites!
