No Risk, No Magic

Bees serve the collective over the individual–and they put in the work to make it happen.
Bees are loyal–they’ll risk it all to protect one of their own.
Bees represent divine feminine power.
Bees bring balance to their strong work ethic when they stop and smell the flowers (literally).

In short, we can learn a hell of a lot from bees. They’re humble yet mighty. And we have them to thank for the honey that finishes our tea, sweetens our cooking, and heals our bodies. Not to mention the laundry list of ways the bees pollinate and sustain the world’s agriculture. Somebody give these guys a raise!

Like honey, we relish in the sweetness of life’s little joys.
Celebrating the tiny moments that make us feel alive.
Basking in the warm glow of a shared table and good conversation.


Being delighted by the world at every opportunity.

These are the values that blaze our trail when we photograph your wedding day. We lead with our heart, we serve with pride, and at the end of the day, we create something much bigger than ourselves–and we have a damn good time while we do it.

What lights us up?

Delivering a gallery of wedding photographs that serves as the most stunning time machine ever. Trust us–the images we create together will take you back to your wedding day faster than you can say “Hold my beer.” You’ll hear your bridesmaids’ laughter after your Maid of Honor told another bad joke. You’ll feel the butterflies of walking down the aisle. You’ll see the look of anticipation in everybody’s eyes as they crane their neck to get a glimpse of you.

We’ll be the wedding day gal pals you didn’t know you needed. We’ll be there to step in and calm those nerves, remind you to stick your chin out just a touch, and serve it back when the groomsmen get a little too tipsy.

Wherever your story shines, whether you’re having a barefoot dance party in the kitchen with pizza or standing on an epic cliffside in a dreamy dress at sunset, we’re here to get that shot (and share a slice).
