hi there,
chaos coordinator.
That's my favorite description of my role as a mother, wife, aunt, and photographer. I've been around long enough to know that not every (or sometimes, not many) moments are perfect, but there's plenty of beauty in the in between. That's my goal as your photographer - to not only capture that sought after "everyone's looking and smiling" photo - but to also show you how beautiful YOUR "in between" is. Sometimes that's laughter and silliness, and sometimes that's shy hugs or even overtired tears. But the beauty is your love for each other on display.
The blessing of memories and hindsight As much as we may love a moment while we're in it, looking back we can see even more ways it was special.

Brunch
You've spent months planning and envisioning your wedding day, it's only fair that all those little details get their time in front of the camera! Details help tell the story of your day and they're one of our favorite things to shoot.
We're all about the details
No 3
This is us - Bri, Michael, Greyson and Liam. There was a point in our marriage where we weren't sure if we'd ever be able to have kids. We're so thankful for our two little miracle boys! Now Bri tears up during the mother son dance at every wedding we photograph.
We're a family of four
No 2
We're a husband and wife wedding photography team based in Amelia Island and Jacksonville, Florida. Bri's a "type A" personality who's never met a list she didn't like. Meanwhile, Michael's never met a person he couldn't talk to. Our various strengths compliment each other, and becoming a photography duo came easily!
We love working together

a little about us
Your wedding day is the beginning of a legacy.
A legacy that future generations will be eager to hear stories about - one that starts and ends with love.
Anything worth doing is worth doing right.
Bri's grandfather used to say, "we're going to do it right or we're not going to do it at all" - a phrase that has stuck with her since childhood! He believed in excellence, and we do too. Every couple deserves an incredible wedding photography experience, so we don't cut corners.
Some of the best moments are unposed.
We love gorgeous portraits (and making them feel natural and a true reflection of you!), but some of our favorite images are the ones that capture in-the-moment emotion.
Your photos shouldn't live on your phone.
Digital is great for sharing, but there's something different about printed memories. In albums or on the walls, our home is full of photographs that will one day be heirlooms.
I believe
