We believe everybody's life and love deserves to be documented, and we are genuinely honored we get to do it for others.
We love wedding days. Getting to witness the excitement, meet your people, Having a bit of quiet time during portrait time while making beautiful photos for you, the kind that's more fluid and looks like you, and the kind that's more classic and your family will put on a frame., and the unplanned little moments that we get to witness and document for you to remember, and sometimes even see for the first time. We know a wedding is not about one person or just the couple, it's also about the people you chose to share that day with. So if we photograph your wedding, know we'll take care of you, and your favorite people.
Introduction
"Me and my now wife ;) in almost every single photo feel the love and emotions all over again. They both are just the most absolute sweetest people and are amazing at what they do! They never missed any of the important moments and made the awkward photo taking process 10x easier lol. Our wedding photos are officially a piece to my heart and we will forever cherish them."

Maria was the perfect photographer for us! She was laid back but gave direction when needed and communication with her before our big day was a breeze. She captured our day the exact way we wanted her to...with lots of candid photos.
Maria was the perfect photographer for us!

Married at the Excelsior in Lancaster, PA
"Working with Maria and Scott was absolutely wonderful and I would recommend them to everyone. They were efficient and excelled at pulling us away for quick shots when the lighting was good, and then just letting us have fun the rest of the time! They knew we wanted to spend as much time with our guests as possible, and gave great suggestions on how to maximize our time as well as get beautiful photos."
"They made our vision come true"
Kind words

We photograph all kinds of weddings, from small courthouse elopements, to multi-day events, and have documented many multicultural weddings, but we know we are not the right fit for every couple.
That’s why we begin our process with a conversation. where you can ask questions, and we will learn what's important to you,. By the end of it you'll be sure if we are a good fit, and we will send you a draft of a timeline based on your priorities, and a custom Collection just for you if the ones we have are not what makes sense for your plans and priorities.
next Step →
We will help you from the very beginning, from helping you figure out how much photography time you really need (most of the time it's less than people think) to helping you plan the details and giving you tips as the day gets closer.
We will be available and ready to answer your questions through the whole wedding planning process.
next Step →
Engagement sessions are always fun, and we love when we get to do them.. It's a great time in your lives that you'll be happy to remember. We can take our time and get creative because there's no schedule to worry about. And to quote a client, you will have beautiful photos that are not in your wedding outfits.
Other great things about them, you get to choose the time of year, a special location, bring furry ones along and even schedule it for the weather you want.
next Step →
We check-in about two months before the wedding to start chatting about timeline specifics, guide you with the family formal photos and go over special details and traditions that are important to you. When we are done, there will be no questions or details left for your wedding day, so all you can be present and enjoy it as much as possible.
While we normally don't send this questionnaire until closer to the wedding, your questions are always welcome through the planning process
next Step →
It's finally here! The day you say I do. All you have to do now is get married and enjoy it as much as possible, and trust your vendors.
Sometimes things run late, sometimes the weather is not what you hoped, but be sure we are used to dealing with that, you just need to focus on celebrating (and then get ready for a sneak peek!).
next Step →
I send a sneak peek by usually tby he following Tuesday after the wedding. If I'm excited to the photos I can only imagine you are too!. After that, you can expect the rest of your photos to be delivered via an online gallery within about four to five weeks of your wedding, including a complimentary album design, and we would also be happy to assist you with any prints and wall art.
After that, we hope to stay in touch. It means the world to us when we go from your wedding photographers to your life and family photographers.

If photography is important enough to you to carefully choose a photographer and invest in their work, the next best step is to make an album. You get to have all your favorite moments in one place, and nothing tells a story like an album.
These high quality, handcrafted albums come in a
variety of linen & leather colors., are printed in archival photographic print, and will be here long after the USB standard from 20 and 40 years from now, so you'll always have your photos within reach.
All albums must be prepaid before design begins. and may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day.
We photograph people who live all over the country, so sometimes we get to do an engagement session even if it's far away, and sometimes we meet couples for the first time on their wedding day. It's really nice when we get to photograph you before the wedding, you'll be confident in the process from the first getting ready photo, but every couple and their plans are different, so we have different options for engagement sessions., including not having one.
But if you are up for it, we can go anywhere, but preferably to a meaningful place. That way when you look at your photos in 10 years, they are not just pretty, they bring back memories.
Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, we’ll need a completed contract and a $1000 non-refundable retainer. If you don’t have a contract yet, just let us know and we’ll send one over! The remaining balance will be due 30 days before the wedding and can be split into payments if you prefer it that way.
Galleries typically include between 80-100 photos per hour. The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding. Your online gallery will come loaded with individually edited high resolution images you can print and share.
We waive travel fees for weddings in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and some areas of New York, Maryland and Delaware that book a 7 hours of photography or more. For other locations, it's on a case to case basis.
