Hey! We are Zach and Cat, a husband and wife photography team, and those are two of our little ones who always cooperate for family photos. :) We have recently had our third daughter, but we are, oddly enough, really bad at having family pictures taken so this will have to do for now. We never planned on becoming wedding photographers, but after shooting well over 100 weddings now we wouldn't want to do anything else. We love the organized chaos and constant action of a wedding day. We love how weddings are really just an excuse to throw an amazing party. We love when grooms that "never show any emotion" cry. We love when the dance floor gets a little weird. And we love how weddings are always so unique and different.

We know that having your picture taken can be stressful and not something that you do often. After all, our most recent family picture above is almost 3 years old. :) So we like to make your wedding day pictures as easy and relaxed as possible for you. And who knows, you may even end up having a little fun! We aren't big fans of pictures that are too posed or cheesy and we much prefer you to be as comfortable as possible because we believe that wedding pictures should look like you. They should remind you of what the day felt like and capture the real moments that happened and not just be one big photoshoot.

OUR STYLE

We like to create clean and vibrant images. We love real emotions and moments. We love candids and unposed pictures, but we also love portraits because we have tricks to help make you look more candid and natural. We know most people have no idea what to do with their hands...or face, or body...so we are here to help with that.

OUR TEAM

Zach (Lead Photographer): Believes how well a restaurant makes a fish taco tells you all that you need to know.

Cat: Loves to take pictures of our kids...with her phone. Go figure.
