we like different
we’ve been to + documented hundreds and hundreds of weddings.
at this point we know what we like + what lights us up as artists in order to do our very best work.
read through our approach + if it resonates with you, it’s time to contact us.
we wanna hear what you have planned.
-
we’re gonna spend a lot of time together so we have to make sure that we’re a good fit for each other -working with us should feel right to you
-
we don’t do pre-determined packages. just a base price to book us for your wedding, then you add on whatever else you want covered. 35mm film, coverage for the night before, a wedding video on Super 8 film…everything you need + nothing you don’t
-
we’ve been doing this a long time and have gotten to know what’s on our couple’s minds - check out our FAQs to see if we’re in your head
experience
-
our style is all about real moments. we hate cheesy, dated shit that everyone has been doing for decades. we’re not going to set your hands up in the exact right place, or fix your dress to lay perfectly on the ground. we are heavily focused on capturing the way your wedding felt, not just how it looked. if you want cool, easy, artistic photos that tell your true story, you just focus on being present that day + we’ll do our thing
-
there’s nothing we love more than when our couples have a totally out-of-the-box wedding that feels like them. not a step and repeat, cookie cutter day that’s dictated by the wedding industry, “you have to do this and that” or include traditions that don’t mean anything to you. this is YOUR day and it should be exactly what you want it to be
-
we are super serious about backing up your memories. we back up as we’re shooting to a 2nd card in our cameras, we also back up to our sever, a working hard drive, another hard drive that goes in a fireproof safe, and everything is backed up in the cloud. that’s about it. everything else we try not to take too seriously - it’s a party to celebrate love after all!
-
wedding days go by fast, so why not do more than just 1 day? we had a multi-day wedding ourselves complete with a welcome BBQ + talent show and we are FIRM believers in maximizing the time you have with everyone you love in the same place at the same time (when else does that even happen??). and we couldn’t recommend having your own talent show enough - truly the best night of my life
-
besides the love you have for reach other, your wedding photos are 1 of the only things that last. the cake gets eaten, the music stops and the flowers die. your photos will live on forever
services
-
we have 1 base package that includes 6 hours of wedding day coverage to get your date on our calendar
-
from there, you can add on more hours of coverage based on your specific wedding day schedule. 8 hours is typical to cover the tail end of getting ready through a good portion of your party
-
we can shoot 35mm film alongside your digital photos for a timeless, chic look
you can have a wedding video shot entirely on super 8 film
-
after party - covered
morning yoga - documented
sunset boat ride or talent show the night before - photographed
whatever cool shit you have planned, you can have us there for it too
-
engagement shoots - the perfect double date for us to hang out and really get to know each other before your big day
day-after portrait sessions - leave your wedding portraits to a different day and maximize the time you spend with the people you love all in 1 place for probably the 1st and only time ever. plus who wouldn’t want to wear their wedding dress again?

we offer rush editing for those of you who are feeling impatient
and albums + prints direct from our professional print lab for those of you who know how good it feels to hold your memories in your hands
faqs
-
everyone who hires us to photograph their wedding gets:
6 hours of wedding day coverage with the option to add on more time
2 photographers - amanda + joe - with over 300 weddings under our belt
exclusive booking rights to us for the whole weekend (in case you decide to add on coverage for the day before or do your portraits the day after)
everything else is totally customizable based on what you need and want photographed as part of your wedding weekend
-
easy - we just need a 40% retainer and a signed electronic contract to secure your date
-
2 weeks before your wedding
-
nope. you’re hiring us for the final product, a beautiful ready to view fully edited gallery that you can jump right into and immediately relive all the fun, amazing moments from your wedding. RAW files are unedited photos that are basically the equivalent to the ingredients for an elaborate meal. while the food is still the same as what a chef would prepare, you probably won’t have a good idea of how to even begin preparing it to be the same. don’t worry, we’ll give you every photo worth delivering and edit every photo we deliver to you
-
we are based in the greater NYC area and we travel regularly for weddings

-
none. we include all travel costs
-
we can do this a few ways. we love it when you send us a list of your favorite 10 songs/artist/genres as a couple and we can use that list as a jumping off point to pick the perfect song (or songs) that remind us of how your wedding day felt. or you can straight up tell us the song you absolutely want. this is your video, not ours!
-
most of the time, editing timelines are 6-8 weeks, but it definitely depends on the season.
-
absolutely. while our photos and overall vibe are fun and easy going, we’re still a legitimate business with $1,000,000 general liability insurance coverage. we can totally provide proof to your venue, if they require it
