A LITTLE

WILD.

Very intentional.

No awkward posing.
No pressure to perform.
Just enough direction
to keep things easy,
with plenty of room
for the day to
actually feel like yours.

Take it all in.

We’ll take care of what’s happening around you.

The view. The people. The quiet before the vows. The chaos on the dance floor. The little things you didn’t realize you’d want to remember.

We’ll give you direction when it helps, step back when it doesn’t, and make sure you have the space to actually live the day while we capture it.



THE GOOD STUFF

The moments you expected.
The ones you didn’t.
And everything that
made it yours.

ALL OF IT

ALL OF IT

MEET ANGIE + LEE / BEHIND THE CAMERAS

The people behind
the calm.

You’ll probably spend a pretty big part of your wedding day with us, so we think it matters that it feels easy.

We’re husband and wife, longtime creative partners, travelers, musicians, parents — and two people who are very good at staying calm when plans shift, weather changes, or somebody suddenly can’t find the rings.

We’ll keep things moving when they need to move, laugh with you when they don’t, and make sure the day still feels like yours.

Best friends first.
A very good team ever since.

US.

Explorers at heart. Storytellers by choice.

Real Couples. Real Adventures.

TOGETHER.

ONE TEAM / A LOT OF HATS

That’s the whole idea.

Photography, film, planning support, officiating, and live music — all handled by one team that already knows how to work together.

We’ll help with the details, keep everyone on the same page, and adapt when plans shift, so you can spend less time managing your wedding day and more time actually being in it.

MEET THE CREW / BEHIND THE CAMERAS

Four people.
One very
good rhythm.

What started with the two of us has grown into a small team we trust completely — people who know how we work, how we communicate, and when to step in without making the day feel like a production.

Different roles. Same approach. Calm when it matters, creative when it counts, and always paying attention to what's happening around you.

Family-run. Fully in it.
