The Experience
New in 2023 - A CLIENT CLOSET!
Currently we have a small client closet available for any of our sessions. We are building it slowly throughout the year and following trends, etc.
Maternity, Family, even some boudoir accessories (can you say WINGS?!?)
The Family Experience
Whether you’re looking for your annual family portraits or celebrating a special trip with your extended family, we like to make your overall experience with us as memorable as your images will be!
Since a lot of our families are in town only for a short time on their vacation, we always start by getting to know each other during our initial phone consult. Who will be in your images, are you celebrating a special occasion while you are here, etc.
The day of your portraits, just show up and be prepared for a good time!
Dean and I have two little ones at home so we are familiar with all of the moods kids can go through and we roll with it. The main goal is to have a wide variety of posed and candid images for you by the end of your session. Typically we start with the posed images and get those out of the way, but if your little one isn’t having it, we quickly move on to something else and then circle back to those a bit later.
From your first email all the way through the delivery of your images we are here to help with everything! Upon booking we will work on narrowing down a location for your session based on sunset & tide schedule. If you’re looking for a beach, you might be surprised to find some of our beaches have little to no sand at high tide and we want room to move about! I have a guide I send along that will help when it comes to selecting outfits and I’m always on hand to bounce clothing choices off of so that everyone looks their best the day of.
When your images are hanging on your wall we want you to be transported back to that day and the fun you had with your family!
The Wedding Experience
As your wedding creative team, we take great pride in what we provide to our couples, not only timeless images and films, but an experience and helping hand from our initial meeting all the way through the delivery of your finished images & films. Dean and I listen to your vision, your story, and your concerns and help where needed.
Leading up to your wedding we are on hand with vendor recommendations, with our large coverage area and network, we can connect you with reliable vendors wherever you choose to marry. Dean and I take pride in helping with your day-of timeline making sure we get the images you want, and those family portraits, quickly and efficiently so that you can get back to your guests without missing a beat. We’ve all been to those weddings where it’s time for the reception to start and the couple is no where to be found as they’re off taking photos still. That will not be us! We have had couples dedicate an hour to couples portraits and then we’ve had weddings where mother nature has given us 12 minutes for photos before a deluge of rain.
On your wedding day, think of us as an extension of your wedding party. We’ve been known to sew up a bridesmaids dress, mend a groomsmen’s tux, we know all the tricks for properly pinning a boutonnière, and Dean is our bowtie aficionado for that origami project of a tie.
A lot of our couples choose a destination wedding and we understand that not every family and friend can make your day that’s why we get a sneak peek of highlights up on our blog within 48 hours of your wedding. You’ll have that to share with family and friends until your final finished gallery is delivered both on USB and online gallery for easy sharing. We also offer add-ons like albums and wall art so you can get your images off your computer and displayed in your home.
The Elopement and Adventure Wedding Experience
Some of our couples have stumbled upon having a small wedding because of COVID while others have been planning an Adventure Wedding from the beginning. Whatever your reason, we are here to help make it one of the most memorable days of your life. At the end of the day we want you to look back and think you couldn’t have imagined your day any other way.
From the very beginning we are listening to your ideas, your vision, as well as your concerns and help you plan with location ideas, permit research, vendor recommendations, and anything else you need.
On your wedding day we will be the mother of the bride helping with any zipping and buttoning, your wedding party fluffing your dress, straightening your tie before the 1st look, pinning your boutonnière. We will also be the witness to your marriage license, and in some cases even be the officiant making your wedding legal as Brittany is ordained and can preside over self-guided ceremonies in most places.
When your images and films are delivered, we want you to relive your day with every fine detail and the emotions and love all over again!
