THE WEDDING EXPERIENCE
TO HONOR EXCEPTIONAL & EVERLASTING UNIONS
More than just a pretty picture. Moments like this should make you feel something.
The feeling you had when you first met, to the feeling you'll have when you say I do. It is you relationship which brought you to this moment, and it's that relationship we celebrate. As a husband and wife - photo and video duo - we help craft elevated, relaxed and intentional moments, so you can the day and create your own moments that make it unforgettable. To us, your wedding day is not about the photos, but so much more. It is about the celebration and love you share with the most important people in the world. Our collections are for lovers who wish to preserve this feeling, this moment of their lives together... and our only wish is for you to look back and feel the joy and happiness you felt on your day when you look back on you memories.

chasing romance & UNFORGETTABLE MEMORIES
They traveled to Richmond, VA for our engagement photos, then to Baltimore, MD for our wedding. When we got our engagement and wedding pictures back, we were in awe of how beautiful they were. Everyone that has seen our wedding pictures have commented on what a great job they did.
“You need the Axtells in your life. Absolutely Amazing”
JOE & ALLYSON
Stephanie was amazing to work with from start to finish. They have an amazing energy, a positive attitude, and really cares about her couples - you can tell she's passionate about her work. I'd book Stephanie a million times over if I could!

WE CURATE THOUGHTFUL, AUTHENTIC MOMENTS, WHILE CELEBRATING BEAUTY & RELATIONSHIPS ALONG THE WAY.
A FULLY GUIDED + JOYFUL approach
Relationships - its what we live for. The relationship between the two of you, the relationship with your family, the relationship of photography + videography, our relationship... need I say more? But the one we care about most is our relationship with you.
We fully understand the significance of this journey ahead of you, and the impact that building a relationship with our couples can have. No two weddings - no two relationships - are the same, and with nearly 300 weddings captured around the globe, we've crafted a formula that helps us capture every step of your journey to "I do," while leaving space for spontaneous, creative and inspired moments.
How we capture weddings is something deeply rooted in our bones. After a not-so-great-photographer experience on our own wedding day, it became our mission to make sure no one walks away from their wedding day feeling anything less that thrilled and flattered. We whole-heartedly dedicate ourselves to getting to know our couples and perfecting our craft, equally. We want to get excited with you, dream up those dreamy romantic moments with you, show you new ideas and plan the perfect flow to your day. We will anticipate "who's going to cry," and look forward to how crazy your bff's toasts will be. We work with you every step of the way constructing a clear timeline and becoming a reliable soundboard for any questions you may have.
We value our relationship with you and put all of our energy into championing your dreams.
Modern Romantic, Timeless Memories
Our style is often described the perfect balance between candid + romantic, while also leaving room for creativity and inspired moments. Everything we do is oriented around who the two of you are, how you fit together, how you love each other, and of course - how you celebrate your friends and family (and vice versa) on the most important day.
OUR STYLE
ABOUT THE COLLECTIONS
For a traditional wedding day, we’ve found that 8 hours of coverage is the minimum time needed to capture the full story of your day, without rushing or stressing about missing something.
INTENTIONALITY + INTUITION
8 HOURS MINIMUM
The Perfect Coverage
2nd shooters allow us to be more versatile, assist as another pair of hands throughout the day, and add a creativity that is more candid, natural, and cinematic to your story.
2nd shooters
The "Cinematic" Effect
We know no two weddings are the same, but we do know how long it takes for us to capture each moment. Whether you book photography, videography, or both - we meet with every couple to discuss the details of their day so their images feel like them, captured in flow through a stress-free day.
timeline collaboration
Flow is Everything
We’ve structured our wedding collections intentionally and strategically, to ensure your experience is the very best it can possibly be. Ultimately, our collections are designed to have you falling in love with your memories for years to come.

SIX years and 250+ weddings LATER, WE have created a formula to capture every moment of a wedding day, while also leaving room for creativity and AUTHENTICITY.
THE PROCESS
how it works
I. CONSULTATION + PROPOSAL
Just like a relationship, all weddings begin with a "hello." Part of our process includes getting to know who the two of you are, not only to tell your story in our signature and evocative style, but to also guide you through the best options to make for your wedding day photography & videography needs.
II. BOOKING
Once we've gotten to know you two and what you're looking for most, its time to lock in your date. We do require that your wedding date be locked in with your venue before booking - once that's done, we'll sign a contract, pay the retainer fees, and we're yours for the whole day.
III. PRE-WEDDING SHOOTS
Leading up to your wedding, if your collection includes engagement, bridal, boudoir, or adventure sessions, we'll be in touch to schedule all those details with you. Where, when, what to wear, what time of year - we're here to help you have the best pre-wedding sessions possible.
IV. PLANNING + WEDDING DAY
4-8 weeks before your wedding day, we'll be working with you and your wedding coordinator to ensure your day is planned out to perfection, so you can sit back and relax on your day knowing you can leave every moment - from tiniest of details to your first kiss - to us.
V. PRODUCTION AND DELIVERY
After your wedding day, now is when we get to work. We meticulously process and store your photos and videos as we begin by editing your wedding photos, followed by your wedding videos. Typically wedding photo galleries are completed in 6-8 weeks, while wedding videos are completed in 3-4 months.
VI. LEGACY SESSIONS
Your life and your journey doesn't end after your wedding day; it's just beginning. Exclusive to our wedding couples, we also offer what we like to call "Legacy Sessions" - sessions for all parts of life that you want to preserve, at a rate available only to past & current wedding clients.
