Meet Adrienne & Dani!
Best friends for 20 years, wedding photographers for 12, and Dog moms
It all began thirteen incredible years ago when we embarked on this wild and crazy adventure and captured our very first wedding for a dear friend. Little did we know, that would lead us to discover our true passion. Fast forward to today, and we've been so honored to capture so many beautiful wedding days, having immortalized the love stories of countless beautiful couples.

Hello! I'm Adrienne and I've been told a time or two that I've got a super bubbly personality. When I'm not working, you can find me in my comfiest loungewear curled up with my furbabies and my latest cross stitch project. Dani often jokes that I'm secretly an old woman. I'm on a never ending quest to make my home feel like a cozy cottage core hideaway and I love searching local thrift stores for my next perfect home décor find.

Whether in our hometown of Sacramento, California, or another destination, we bring our genuine, detail-oriented style to any wedding day celebration. We strive to cultivate genuine emotion and make room for authentic connection, and we are dedicated to making every step of the journey feel effortless and blissful.
Hi there! I'm Dani! From Lord of the Rings to Star Wars and everything in between, I'm like a walking nerdy encyclopedia. Some may say my DVD/Blu Ray collection is almost shamefully large and I love grabbing some snacks and turning on some Netflix. When I'm not photographing, my favorite pastime is curling up with my softest blanket, my kindle, and a pup.

Our fur-babies! Emma & Ella are sisters from the same litter that we adopted a few years ago. We originally only planned on getting Ella but the moment we saw them both together, it was love at first sight. They definitely act like sisters and when we go for walks, they walk us instead of the other way around. People said we were crazy for adopting 2 at the same time, but you try and say no to those adorable faces!
