We are so glad you asked, we are a husband and wife photography team based in Northern Michigan + Connecticut.
We love to travel, drink good wine + delicious coffee.
So grab a cup or glass of the above (depending on the time of day) and get to know us and our amazing photography team!
a little about us...
I'M JANELLE ....THE MAIN PHOTOGRAPHER. I'VE ALWAYS LOVED PHOTOGRAPHY, GROWING UP I TOOK PHOTOS OF JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING. (I HAVE THE STACKS AND STACKS OF PHOTOS TO PROVE IT!) THEN ABOUT 17 YEARS AGO I GOT MY FIRST OFFICIAL SLR AND REALLY FELL IN LOVE WITH PHOTOGRAPHING OUR TRAVELS AND MY FAMILY.
I'M PROBABLY THE BIGGEST ANIMAL LOVER YOU WILL EVER MEET, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO HORSES AND DOGS BUT I WOULD HAVE A ZOO IF ODEN WOULD LET ME. I'M ALSO SUPER ORGANIZED...JUST THINK MONICA GELLER FROM FRIENDS. :)
PROBABLY MY FAVORITE THING OF BEING A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IS GETTING TO EXPERIENCE THE DAY WITH MY BRIDES. THE EMOTIONS, THE LOVE, THOSE CANDID MOMENTS THAT JUST MAKE YOUR HEART MELT. I FEEL SO INCREDIBLY BLESSED TO GET TO DO THIS FOR A LIVING AND TO HAVE MY WONDERFUL HUSBAND ALONG SIDE ME...IS WELL, THE BEST! :)

Meg + Ray are one of our husband and wife wedding photography teams.
Meg’s being a professional photographer since 2013. After being the subject of her camera constantly, Ray decided to figure out this creative passion she had for photography - and he was hooked!
They were both born and raised in New England. Meg is from Western Massachusetts and Ray is from Southern Connecticut. They love being outside - in the woods, on a trail or along the coast. Their favorite outdoor moments are usually in the glow of sunset. Anywhere they can experience the beauty of the world around them - they love working with clients who share their passion for nature and most of all, for love!

Another one of our awesome husband and wife wedding photography teams - meet Nicole + Ben!
Nicole has been a wedding and portrait photographer for the past 7 years. In 2020, Ben and Nicole got married and now work together photographing weddings.
They love to travel and being creative. When they are not photographing you might catch them cooking, hiking, woodworking or doing volunteer work. They love to capture not only those big moments but the small details. They strive to find those moments in time that tell the whole story.
