Why us?
✨ Communication - Text me any time! We hear from our clients all the time that one of the things they love most about us is our outstanding communication.
✨We provide a custom photography timeline to match your wedding day schedule - You won't be left wondering where you need to be for pictures. Leave it to us to work with your coordinator and provide you with a comprehensive photography timeline that matches your schedule.
✨Fun, exciting, easy-going experience - We are down to earth, and our goal is to capture your natural emotions, as they come throughout your day. Those quick smiles, the laughter, the tears of joy.
✨Stunning, breathtaking images of your day - We think this goes without saying, but you deserve breathtaking images of your day that you will proudly display in your home and pass on to future generations.
✨Husband and wife team - While I am capturing the early getting ready moments with the bride and bridesmaids, Michael is capturing the groom and groomsmen getting ready. During the ceremony, Michael and I are positioned to capture two angles, which also provides redundancy so no moments are missed!
✨ Experience - Our excellence is proven by our years of professional photography experience, stunning portfolio, and client feedback. (Scroll for testimonials!)
✨Equipment - We use only the best of Canon's modern mirrorless cameras and L series lenses. Plus, we always back your photos up to the cloud as soon as we get done shooting to ensure no photos will ever be lost. This is a key part of our process that is often missed among most other photographers (shockingly 😲). Lastly, we use color calibrated monitors when editing to ensure that the photos you receive look perfect when printed, with outstanding color accuracy.
Testimonials
"My wedding day was absolutely perfect and I owe a large part of that to Sydney (and Michael)! They were quick to respond at initial inquiry, their rates are incredibly reasonable for what they offer, and they're sooooo sweet. Sydney's service really can't be matched when it comes to a wedding package and she's the only vendor I had that I had zero questions or stress about. She was professional everywhere she needed to be and went more than the extra mile on our day and I'll never be able to thank her enough!
I could tell anyone for hours how she made us feel comfortable at the engagement shoot and how she's the only professional photographer I've ever felt not awkward around, but I'll save you the time and just say this: if you can book with Sydney, YOU NEED TO BOOK WITH HER RIGHT NOW. Don't look for a better value because you won't find it. Don't ask for anyone else's opinion. Don't even look up from your phone unless it's to get your wallet to make the payment for the deposit.
Since a picture is worth a thousand words, feel free to peruse mine. Obviously, Sydney's work speaks for itself. I wish I could tell you a specific favorite photo but they're all so well done that I can't decide. Just bask in the glory that was my perfect wedding day--but be sure to do it after you've called Sydney to tell her you're in."

"Brandon and I are speechless!! We scrolled through each picture last night in awe. They were magical, spectacular, amazing, everything!!! You have beyond exceeded our expectations with capturing our wedding day! My goodness!!
You captured each and every second in time, all the emotion, the passion, the love that flowed in our universe that day. The day after our wedding, Brandon and I were saying how each and everything just flowed and worked out for our day but we wished we had had someone to record our ceremony. After seeing this beautiful capture of the day, we realized we didn’t need a videographer!!! You both captured it all! We can’t thank you enough for your patience and your positive vibes that joined with ours! It couldn’t have been better! We love each and every picture!"
-Kristal and Brandon
"We absolutely loved working with Sydney (and Michael) on our engagement and wedding day photography shoots. We could not be happier with the quality of our photos and Sydney's ability to capture our most special moments. Sydney is very professional but in a relaxing way. We were able to be ourselves, it felt very natural and organic. The communication and response time to questions was great, which really put our minds at ease. We highly recommend Sydney for your photography needs."
-Pam and Sam
What we love about shooting weddings
We love that years from now, each photograph will trigger and even replace memories of that day. Weddings bring out something in people that you usually don't encounter in everyday life. Our relationships are generally kept in private until this day when we publicly declare our love for one another. They unleash emotions that change our behaviors and bring the joy we feel out into the open for everyone to see. Capturing the joyful moments throughout a wedding day is what we thrive on.
