But what you'll remember most is

PHOTOGRAPHY - VIDEO

We sold our house, bought an RV, and spent nearly a decade touring the country as musicians.

Along the way, we explored all 50 states, visited more than 20 countries, and chased countless sunrises through National Parks and mountain towns.

That love for adventure eventually became the foundation of Mindful Media.

Today, we use everything we've learned on the road to help couples create meaningful experiences in places that inspire them.
