Life is made up of a million tiny moments accented by occasional milestones. Your wedding day is very much the same. Thousands of small, seemingly insignificant moments. But its those little things that your wedding day milestones stand on. The laughter shared with friends during getting ready, catching up with family at cocktail hour, and waiting around for the ceremony to begin are all little things accented by the huge moments like being pronounced married, or your first dance together. And it's those little things that get us excited! Because life is more than just the huge moments. It's the silently scrolling through your phone together before bed, all the boring car rides you've shared, and all the time snuggled up on the couch. Life is more magical when we recognize and appreciate the little things.

FEATURED IN
The wedding isn't about the photos. The photos are about the wedding. Our approach is less about putting you in perfect poses and manufacturing moments, and more about bringing you into a space where you can be yourselves.
As we document our own life, we are doing so as active participants in those moments. That is what we bring to your wedding: an approach that is built on being friends with cameras who are joyously celebrating alongside you. We want every photograph to feel like it was taken within the moment rather than from the outside looking in.
During our time together, you can expect an experience that is less about poses, and more about true connection. Bringing you closer together is our ultimate goal. Leaving you with memories that last a lifetime is just the vessel we use to get there.
FRIENDS WITH CAMERAS
Josiah and Steph were so incredible & fun to work with! We are so lucky we made this choice! Easily one of our best of our wedding! It was such a privilege to work with you and we feel truly lucky to have gained two incredible, talented friends in the process. We have so much love for these two!
- Noah & Kathryn
"we feel lucky to have gained two incredible friends in the process!"
With weddings comes decision fatigue. We're sure you're feeling that right now! Choosing the right photographer is beyond difficult. We believe the experience you have with your photographer is going to influence how you feel about your photos. Deciding if someone is the best fit isn't just about their work, but about their approach. What energy do they bring? What is their mindset behind photography? How will they lead you throughout the day? Is every moment a staged event or are things documented naturally?
Our best work is done for couples who can't get enough of each other. They're people who continue to embrace even after the cameras are down.
They let real moments happen and aim to remain present in each moment not caring that the wedding dress gets a bit dirty, or if the groom gets lipstick on his cheek. They laugh when it's windy as their hair flies into their face or when the veil flies off as they walk down the aisle. Apart from their marriage, they're most looking forward to partying with all of their loved ones.
They choose being present over being perfect because they know the best memories exist not in the posed perfection, but in those beautiful unscripted moments.

Most weddings tend to be around 8-9 hours. On occasion, especially for weddings with catholic ceremonies, we are shooting 9-10 hours The best place to start is for us to build a timeline for you to determine a general idea of how much time you need, but extra hours can always be added.

A little more about us
We're high school sweethearts. We live in the King of Prussia, PA area with our toddler, Jack. With him, our life revolves around the zoo, getting ice cream, and hitting the local playground. But after he goes to bed, most of our free time is spent reading (mostly fantasy/sci-fi), rewatching our favorite movies (can't go wrong with Hot Fuzz or The Birdcage) and discovering new stories, and of course, catching up on sleep (remember...toddler parents). We're always down for espresso martinis or amoretto sours. We'd be lost without our families who we spend tons of time with (best parenting hack, by the way, is to keep your parents close). We're creatures of habit and love routine, specifically coffee in the morning...yeah, that first sip is definitely a highlight. Our life revolves around stories. Whether it be books, movies, or capturing yours through our lens.
Let's make it official! To reserve the date, all that's needed is a signed contract and paid retainer. The retainer is $1000. The rest is due two weeks prior to the wedding. Just let us know what collection you're most interested in, and we'll send over everything to make it official!
We deliver 75-100 photos per hour that we're shooting. So if we're there for 10 hours, you can expect 750-1,000 photos. But we do not limit. If there are 1400 photos that we think should be shared with you, then we'll edit all 1400.
Let go. Have fun. Be present. Focus on each other. Don't stress the little stuff. Hire a planner. Hug each other more. Wedding planning should be fun. Set aside time to plan and to not plan. Hire vendors you trust. Do whatever you want. There are no rules. You don't have to follow the latest trend. Have the wedding you want to have.
