We’re Rachel and Nathan. We’re central Kentucky based wedding/couples photographers and film-makers with a passion for capturing the real, raw, and honest moments of your love story. We are inspired to capture your love stories because of our our own love for each other that started 7 years ago in a college dorm room. In November of 2019 we said “I do” under the towering hemlocks of Kentucky’s Red River Gorge alongside our closest family and friends. I wore a dress from Goodwill and a flower crown and we cried through our entire ceremony.
Here’s what makes us different: we care about you both a lot. We take such great joy in learning your love story, running alongside your family on your wedding day, and giving you an experience captured in photographs that will outlive you both. We could care less about “tradition” and thrive with people whose wedding day priorities are their partner, their loved ones, and the celebration of it all. Using a documentary style approach, analog mediums, and an artistic perspective, we aim to create work that captures how it really felt.
OUR HOPE FOR YOU
that we may reveal the beauty of your love to help you gain a better grasp on the impact your love and life make in your world
We’ve been photographing love stories for 8 years now and are only falling more in love with it everyday. Whether you’re getting married in the central Kentucky area or across the globe, we’d be honored to celebrate you anywhere your love story takes you.

I promise to always accept you as you are. I will be the first one to clip your veil back into your hair during your photos and the girl crying through all your first dances. I’ll pick the broccoli out of your teeth, tell your grandmas how beautiful they look, and squeeze you so tight as we say goodbye for the night. My favorite part of my job is learning what makes you both who you are and loving you for it.
I want to be your support system throughout the entire day; I am there to help. If that means carrying your bags or running to grab the deodorant you left in the car, I’m your guy. When it comes to capturing your day, I’m not concerned about theatrics. I’m excited and invested in the idea of capturing your candid, honest, and personal moments on photo and video.

Stressed while getting ready on your wedding day? I’ll play the middle school mom card and step in the room and tell everyone I need them outside to give you some alone time.
