We’Re not just about the photos.

We care about your experience.

Nicole:

If you’re looking for a photographer who can capture natural and creative snapshots? Look no further because that's exactly what Denniss and I do! I understand getting your photo taken can feel awkward, but trust me, it's okay. You don't have to be perfect, actually it’s better if you try not to be perfect, and focus on being exactly who you are!

Denniss and I thrive on those authentic, slightly offbeat moments and we want to make sure you enjoy your experience in front of our cameras.

My goal is for us to feel like old friends, so we can create something meaningful together. Whether you prefer posed shots or candid captures, we’re here to help you tell your story.

Denniss:

We grew up in a diverse culture, we’ve travelled a lot, and we love to work with people from all walks of life and personalities.

As a husband and wife team, our synergistic collaboration is what sets us apart. We complement each other's strengths, combining our artistic vision and technical expertise to capture moments that tell a story and evoke powerful emotions. Our clients don't just receive photographs; they receive lasting memories that resonate with depth and authenticity.

Nicole:

From the initial consultation to the final delivery, we leave a lasting impression on our clients. It's not just about the images we create; it's about the relationships we build and the narratives we weave through our work.

Get to know us

  • Telling stories and stories, in general, have always been a passion of mine. I fell in love with photos as a child when I discovered old photo albums in a cupboard at my grandmother’s home.

    Anytime I visited (which was often), my grandmother would sit and tell me stories about the people in them. My favorite things as a middle schooler were a Polaroid camera and a Diary. I remember having this pink diary with a lock and key that smelled like cotton candy I got for my birthday one year. I couldn’t lock it by the end of that year because I’d filled the pages with my stories and Polaroid snapshots.

    Being in business with my best friend and husband is truly a gift. He’s the one who keeps me grounded and helps me look at things from a different perspective. I use photography as my “art” to help feed my creativity as a freelance writer and editor.

    I hope my photos will tell a story for your family, which will cherished for generations to come as my grandmother’s photos do for ours.

  • In 2023 I retired from the USAF after a 23 year career, I now work as a contractor.

    My favorite part about working with my wife is her passion and dedication she puts into everything she does.

    I love the technical aspects of photography and the science behind capturing that “perfect shot.” I specialize in real estate, landscapes, aerial - drone videography, portraits, and product photography.

    My goal is to put clients at ease by cracking the the goofiest Dad Jokes.
