OUR STORY
meet christy and james
Capturing the heart of your wedding day with ease and empathy. We are humbled and honored to capture love stories side by side.
While photography was the connection that first brought us together in Chicago nearly two decades ago, we never could have dreamed we would go on to document 350 weddings together and counting.
As a husband and wife team, it is the honor of a lifetime to be welcomed into families to help preserve their story and legacy through joyful, honest, and emotional imagery.
And as parents to our own rambunctious kids, the importance of what we do is never lost on us.
Soak in every second with your people.
The best memories (and as a result, the best photos) happen when you are fully present and in the moment. But how do we get to that point?
Simple - it starts with trust. We listen intently to your story and vision so that we truly understand what matters most to the two of you. As a result, we are prepared to the utmost degree to handle your day with the grace and care you deserve.
In turn, you can relax and enjoy each moment as it unfolds, trusting we are capturing it in all its uniqueness and beauty.
You made the entire process so easy and special and, on top of it all, you and James are simply incredibly human beings. There is no one else we’d rather have with us on such an important day.
