Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes. We photograph everything from intimate elopements and backyard weddings to full wedding days. What matters most to us is not the size of your guest list, but the meaning of the day and the people in it.
-
Our work is documentary at heart, with a cinematic, film-inspired finish. We focus on what actually happens. The in-between moments, the glances, the way people interact when they forget about the camera. We’ll guide you when it helps, but we never force moments that don’t feel like you.
-
Not at all. Most of our couples say this, and almost all of them forget about the camera within minutes. You don’t need to know how to pose. You just need to show up as yourselves. We’ll take care of the rest.
-
Yes, gently and intentionally. We’ll step in when something needs shaping, like family portraits or couple portraits, but our approach is rooted in prompting and movement rather than stiff poses. Nothing overly staged, nothing that feels unnatural..
-
Yes. We are a husband-and-wife team, which means you get two photographers who work seamlessly together and communicate constantly. When a second photographer is included in your collection.
-
Every wedding is different, but you can expect a thoughtfully curated gallery that tells the full story of your day. We focus on quality and narrative, delivering images that feel intentional.
-
Your full gallery will be delivered within the timeframe outlined in your contract. We also love sending a small preview shortly after your wedding so you have something beautiful to hold onto while you wait.
-
Yes. We regularly photograph weddings throughout Maryland, DC, and Virginia, and we’re always open to travel beyond that. If your wedding takes place somewhere meaningful to you, we’d love to hear about it.
-
Yes, extensively. Nicole is actually a Catholic Journalist and photojournaist. And we’re Catholic, so yes, we are very familiar with the structure, traditions, and reverence of Catholic wedding Masses and ceremonies, and we photograph them with care and respect for the liturgy.
-
We adapt. Some of the most meaningful images come from unexpected moments. We’re calm under pressure and comfortable working with changing timelines, weather, and lighting conditions.
-
Booking is simple. Once you choose your collection, a signed contract and retainer officially reserve your date. From there, we’ll guide you through the next steps so nothing feels overwhelming.
-
Yes. We’re happy to share insight from experience, especially when it comes to building a timeline that allows space for real moments instead of rushing from one thing to the next.
-
Yes! Absolutely! We’re always happy to share complete galleries so you can see how we tell the full story of a wedding day, from beginning to end, in all kinds of light and situations.
-
Yes. Engagement sessions are a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera and experience how we work together before the wedding day. Some of our packages include a complementary engagement session.
-
We’re present without being intrusive. We know when to step in and when to disappear. Our goal is for you to feel supported, not managed.
Our goal is always to be a team player with your other vendors and we’re not above sewing up broken zippers and handing out bandaids for blisters.
-
Yes. We have a system in place where you will get to tell us all about the people who matter the most to you and who you’d like us to capture on your wedding day.
-
Oh yeah. One of the things besides photographing our children, Nicole actually did professionally as a photographer was product photography. If you’re about the details, we’re about the details.
-
Moments always come first. A beautiful image means very little if it doesn’t carry feeling. When emotion and light align, the aesthetic follows naturally
This is where the love story starts—just the two of you, soaking up the moment before the big day arrives. Engagement sessions are relaxed, joy-filled, and all about capturing your connection exactly as it is: playful, sweet, goofy, romantic, and totally you. Whether we’re adventuring through your favorite spot, dancing barefoot at golden hour, or cozying up somewhere meaningful, We’ll guide you every step of the way (no awkward prom posing here).

GIFs: The Nostalgic, Emotion-Packed
Add-On You
Didn’t Know
You Needed
Higher emotional level unlocked—There’s just something about a GIF that hits different. Maybe it’s the imperfections, the way they loop endlessly like a memory you never want to forget, or the subtle nod to the grainy magic of old VHS recorders and Super 8 film. Whatever it is, GIFs bring an undeniable feeling to your photos—one that still images and even full videos can’t quite capture on their own.
And the best part? They work for everything. Weddings? Check. Branding sessions? Absolutely. Couples and families? Oh yeah. GIFs add movement, storytelling, and a dash of nostalgia to any session. It’s like freezing a moment in time—but keeping it alive at the same time. The perfect blend of photo and video, these looping snippets add extra personality and depth to your gallery, making your memories feel even more real.
