03. Getting Ready

We love to start the day with the getting ready process. This is where the story of your day begins! There are so many amazing moments filled with anticipation and excitement. The main photographer always stays with the bride and the second photographer stays with the groom, so we are able to capture both stories at two different locations.

This is also a great time for us to photograph the lovely details that you have spent so much time picking out and planning— shoes, dress, flowers, invitations, etc. We like to arrive about one hour before you put on your dress.

04. The First Look

We encourage you to consider a first look! Not only do first looks provide undivided quality time together on your big day, but they also allow you to soak in what the day is truly meant for. It is the most intimate and special time to have with one another before you head into your ceremony. It gives you the chance to have more time together and not feel rushed. Building in that time gives us more flexibility with locations for your photos and you get to enjoy your entire cocktail hour and not feel like you are missing part of your wedding.

05. Couple & Bridal Party Photos

We want you and the entire bridal party to have a good time, be yourselves and enjoy the moment! We love to keep our posing movement based and very natural. We are always chasing beautiful light, capturing unscripted moments and genuine emotions. 
Our goal is to bring out your personality and capture you in a fun, authentic way. And we are always happy to give you creative direction and keep you laughing! This part of the day takes about one hour.

06. Family Portraits

We know how important family is and how much it means to you that we photograph everyone together! Prior to your wedding day, we will ask you to write down a list of family portraits that you would like us to take. We will build this into the timeline so everyone knows where and when family portraits take place.

Although this is the part of the day that is considered more formal and posed, we still have a fun approach and make sure your photographs look natural and beautiful. We like to get through this part of the day quickly and efficiently, so 30 to 45 is typically plenty of time.

07. Ceremony

The ceremony is the most intimate and emotional center point of your wedding! We feel truly honored to be there to document such an important moment in your lives. Having two photographers will allow us to capture key moments from various angels.

We will capture your ceremony with attention to the smallest details completely unobtrusively, being as discrete as possible. We make sure to not be a distraction to you or your guests during the ceremony.

08. Cocktail Hour

During this time, the second photographer will photograph cocktail hour with a blend of candid photos and portraits.

This is a great opportunity to capture your family and friends mingling, laughing, chatting and hanging out. The main photographer will use this time to photograph details and set up lighting for the reception.

09. Reception

It's time to celebrate! We will be there to capture all the love, hugs, laughs, tears, and dance moves!
We promise to be as unobtrusive as possible, especially during all the formalities.
 
We also love take you out for golden hour sunset photos once all the formalities have taken place. If sunset photos aren't on your radar, we can also take some fun editorial/flash photos of the two of you at the end of the night.

10. Signed, Sealed, Delivered

Time, attention and love are devoted to processing and editing all of your photographs. We will upload all of your images to an online gallery and send you a thumb-drive with a box of favorites printed.

If you ordered an album, we will create a custom design for you to help get you started. There are so many beautiful fonts and cover materials to choose from when finalizing your album. We will be here for you every step of the way!
