what we offer

AND WHAT WE BRING TO THE TABLE:

1. EXPERIENCED PHOTOGRAPHY

Lenaig first formed her photography business in 2016 after completing a BFA in Photo Media and was later joined by John in 2019. She has photographed 100+ weddings and has extensive experience in both digital and film photography.

2. CREATIVE VIDEOGRAPHY

John’s music background and passion for all things analogue guides our videography work. We offer a variety of services but specialize in Super 8 & 16mm films. We pride ourselves on tasteful, creative documentation that is not overly forced or directed.

3. A STRONG, INTUITIVE TEAM

Being partners in life and work gives us the unique ability to work together seamlessly and push each other creatively. We have a similar approach and philosophy for documentation. We have developed a professional and harmonious workflow that we bring to every project.

our five most
frequently asked questions:

01. How would you describe your style of documentation?

John and I prioritize a candid, documentarian approach to your wedding day. We have a very synchronized workflow that allows us to offer both services in a seamless fashion. We place importance on authentic moments, as opposed to staged, over-produced imagery. We make it a priority for our couples to be present on their wedding day, trusting that it will be thoroughly and honestly documented.

02. Do you document on film?

Yes – we specialize in analog formats for both photo and video work. Our photography collections are a mix of digital + film photographs (35mm, 120 & Instant film). Our videography work is a mix of Super 8mm, 16mm, Hi-8 Tape and digital. We offer full film options for both photography and videography.

03. What are the benefits to a photo + video team?

If you are interested in both services, we highly encourage you to hire us as a team. It’s what we excel at! Our level of trust and intimacy with one another allows us to anticipate each others movements and coordinate effectively. John and I push each other creatively and lean on each other for help & support throughout the day.

04. Do you travel for weddings?

Yes – we are a destination photo + video team and therefore do not have a “home-base”. We make custom proposals for all of our inquiring couples and once we have some more information regarding your wedding day – we can give you more detailed pricing for travel!

05. How far ahead of time should we book you?

We encourage couples to hire us 9-12 months in advance! We will let you know if we are available for your date as soon as you fill out our booking form. In order to secure your wedding date in our calendar, we require a signed contract and a 50% retainer payment (30% when booking photo + video together).
