Colleen & Amanda are hands down the best photographers we could have ever hoped for! They’re absolutely amazing, from capturing our gorgeous engagement session, helping with weddin...
g planning details, giving us wedding day tips, to making sure our big day went as smooth as possible, and of course for capturing the most special day of our lives! We are so in love with every single one of the images we received. They captured our love so perfectly and beautifully. They truly go above and beyond to capture every precious detail and moment while also being so fun to work with and making you feel comfortable while being photographed! We cannot thank them enough for giving us the greatest gift of having so many photos to look back at for the rest of our lives! We cannot recommend them enough!!!
Where do I even begin with Colleen & Amanda?! They are the most kind, caring, fun, & genuine people. Photos were the number one thing I had to make sure to fit into my budget, even...
if it meant cutting something else. And let me tell you, they did not disappoint! From first meeting them at our engagement session to wedding day, they knew what they were doing! From the professionalism down to them making us laugh and feel like we have been friends for ages. My husband and I have never taken professional photos before and so we never really knew how to pose. Colleen & Amanda knew exactly which angles made us look good and how to capture our love in just photos. Their work truly is an art! I have NEVER felt good taking photos until I met them. If you are thinking about booking with them, just do it! You won't regret it! They truly made me feel like the most beautiful bride of a lifetime!
Photography was the number one priority for me when I was planning my wedding because I knew the day would fly by in an instant, and I wanted to remember every moment.

Photography not only produced gorgeous images, but they produced A LOT of images - perfect for someone like me who wanted to remember every little detail. Amanda and Colleen were both so easy to work with, responsible, responsive, open to our ideas, and helped us troubleshoot through rough spots in the planning process. They made us laugh, taught us how to pose, and helped us genuinely enjoy our photo sessions for both our engagement and wedding photos.
They fulfilled every expectation and beyond - and when there are so many moving parts when it comes to planning a wedding, it was nice to not have to worry about photography :)

They are like magic, you won't regret the hire, I'd hire them all over again <3
