Liv was extraordinary. From the very first Zoom call, I instantly fell in love with her—and when the call ended, my then-fiancé looked at me and said he felt exactly the same way. ...
She is just one of those people who makes you feel warm and cozy.
We had spoken with other photographers who felt much more like a sales pitch, and honestly, the pricing reflected that. We ultimately chose Liv because we wanted someone we felt a genuine connection with. Photography is such an intimate part of your wedding day, and we knew we wanted someone we would actually want beside us through all of it. The fact that she also happens to do incredible work was the very happy bonus.
We scheduled an “engagement shoot” mostly because we wanted the bonus babies to get comfortable in front of her camera, and even that completely exceeded our expectations. Liv made everyone feel so natural and comfortable, and it gave us even more confidence that we had made the right choice.
Then came our wedding morning, when I woke up with a beautiful hemorrhage in my eye. Of course. On my wedding day. I was struggling to feel pretty and was having a hard time believing my luck, and then Liv walked in. Somehow, just seeing her immediately made me feel at peace. I knew I was in the best hands.
Liv’s wife, Vic, is beginning her journey in videography, and we were lucky enough to include her in our package. And honestly, even without having seen the finished video yet, I already know how much it means to us. Every amazing moment my husband and I shared that day, these two incredible people were standing on the other side of it. There was something so reassuring about looking across the room and seeing their faces there.
We received a lot of sneak peeks just three days later, as we were landing for our honeymoon, and I was completely blown away. Even in the moments when we weren’t seeing Liv and Vic, they were behind the scenes quietly capturing all of the things we couldn’t possibly see ourselves. That is exactly what you want your photography and videography team to be doing—making sure that while you can’t possibly be at every table, talking to every guest, or witnessing every little moment, someone you trust is there to capture it for you.
In fact, my husband and I woke up the morning after our wedding and said to each other that we missed Liv and Vic. We actually spent parts of our honeymoon in the middle of special little moments saying, “I wish Liv and Vic were here!” and jokingly calling their names as if we could somehow summon them.
Every member of our family had the same reaction. They couldn’t stop talking about how amazing this duo was and how comfortable they felt in their hands.
truly can’t say enough about how special our wedding day was, how much bliss we still feel weeks later, and how beautifully the photos we’ve seen so far have captured all of it. They didn’t just capture what our wedding looked like—they captured what it felt like.
I would recommend Liv and Vic for absolutely any occasion. Family photos, senior pictures, Christmas card shoots…they will absolutely be hearing from us. I will find any excuse I can to work with these two gems again.
We didn’t just find our wedding photographers and videographers. We found people we genuinely hope stay in our lives for a very long time.

Liv’s photos are *stunning*. She has such an eye for detail and emotion, and she made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. We were blown away by how beautiful our images turned out.
She sent us a sneak peek very quickly. Being able to relive those moments so soon was such a gift.
Liv is talented, organized, easy to communicate with, and just an all-around wonderful person. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

ed to understand our vision and everything we wanted, and she delivered exactly that.
We were able to meet with Liv a time or two prior to our wedding day which made everything run so smoothly come that day of. She even seemed to work with all of the other vendors to make sure she was able to get pics of every detail of the day. One of the things I appreciate most about having Liv around was all of her creative ideas for unique photo opportunities!
After my wedding day, all of my family and friends were saying that she was the best vendor and made taking pics after the ceremony so much more enjoyable (and fast)! I’d recommend Liv to any friends and family looking for incredible, nontraditional, creative, fun photos for any event, but especially weddings!

ue was truly professional, fun, engaging and encouraging. We kept feeling like we weren’t the most photogenic people, but with every shot Liv kept correcting us and assuring us that we were wrong about that. From the engagement photos to the wedding day, Liv went above and beyond, always being in the move to capture every special moment. Liv is a true talent and is great at her craft, but also an amazing person. We love every single shot taken and are so grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully.

e ended up having a microwedding at a botanical garden two months later. She offered us a custom package for 90 minutes, which was enough to cover the ceremony, family portraits, and couple portraits. The contract process was also very easy to navigate. Liv stayed communicative and flexible throughout this short and chaotic timeline, assuaged my fears about rain on our wedding day, and accommodated a last minute first look. The day of, she was punctual, and she is every bit fun in person as she was on the phone. This was the first time that my partner and I had professional pictures taken, and she made sure we knew what to expect and helped us get comfortable. Our guests were delighted with her spontaneity - she was down for so many fun group shots!
Earlier in the process, she promised us up to 300 edited photos and a turn around time of 4 weeks, but she gave us close to 600 pictures and was several days early to her deadline. In any wedding gallery, it can be difficult to hit the balance between posed, candid, and artistic shots, but I felt that she hit the mark. This is difficult to quantify or to express in words, but her style captured the way the day felt to me. Our wedding had a lot of DIY elements, and she captured all the little details I was proud of! Of note, I am someone who tends to hate the way they look in every single picture, but the way Liv composes her pictures is very flattering.
Liv is incredibly skilled, professional, and sunshine personified. Book her before her schedule fills up!!
We couldn’t be happier with our wedding photographer, Liv! She beautifully captured every special moment—from the vineyard shots to the ceremony and reception. She was not only tal...

iend the whole time. We also had our dog with us who barked a majority of the time, and she just had so much fun with it and was so relaxed, it really set a great tone.
She also shot our reception with friends and families, and we all know how families can be, but Liv did such a great job mingling with everyone and working with everyone's different personalities to get the best shots.
Her communicated was unmatched throughout the process, always keeping me informed and making sure we were getting every photo and memory that we wanted. She truly went above and beyond, and I can't thank her enough. We are excited to now call her a friend!
Liv was absolutely wonderful. She worked with us to create the perfect package for our wedding, which was split into two days and two locations. The photos we got back were gorgeou...

The overall experience with Liv was amazing. From the first conversation to the finished products she was super easy to get a hold of to ask my millions of questions (as any bride ...
