The Art of Noticing
Anyone can take a picture, capture a memory, but you are looking for ART. We consider photography to be the art of noticing. Noticing emotion, stolen glances, moments of laughter, the one single tear that gets away, being aware of not just the big front and center moments, but also who might be watching in tears from the sidelines. Our goal with the way we capture moments is to display them both honestly and artistically, in a way that feels genuine yet beautiful. We want to capture the raw stuff, the real moments, movement and memories rather than picture perfect poses. We want to notice and capture you in all your authentic glory having the time of your lives.

Let's Do this Thing?
The Photos are ABOUT THE DAY, THE DAY IS NOT ABOUT THE PHOTOS
This is the best day of your life not just a day of content creation and it should be treated as such. Likely not everything will go according to plan, and we truly prefer it that way. Outside of dedicated portrait time we aim to be as unobtrusive as possible so your day unfolds organically. We want you to spend time with your people, drink with your friends, laugh and cry together rather than spend hours trying to get the perfect shot. Our biggest marker of success is that you were able to be fully present, completely yourselves, and you have a beautiful documentation of the all the big and small moments to look back on with fondness for years to come.

My husband and I wanted so deeply to find the right Photograper/ Videographer. We both hold film and photography very close to our hearts. We wanted something real and authentic. We wanted the film and our pictures to really capture both of us while also being able to tell our story! When I tell you that we hit the jackpot I am not joking. I know everyone probably says that their wedding team was the best but ours really was. So much more than the pictures and videos Alayna and Patrick care. Our mini shots were like hanging out with our best friends. They are intentional and passionate. We knew from the start that they were about so much more than money or promoting their business! Truly being able to share other people stories is their dream and they do it so well. Everyone from our wedding loved them! Perfect blend of friendly but still professional! They supported us throughout our whole wedding process. Allowing us to reach out about any concern or worry. Always there to fill us with peace and reassurance! We could not be happier with our experience with them. We have made lifelong friends and we have the most gorgeous and special pictures/ video that we are still looking at everyday. We love shore and summit so much! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone I know!

Pat & Alayna are so good at their job and we’re so happy we hired them to shoot our wedding day. We loved the story session we did with them and how they incorporated that into our wedding video. Our film has so many special moments in it and it’s all thanks to them! We would highly recommend hiring these two as your wedding videographers!!
