In their Words

OUR APPROACH

“they delivered WAY beyond our expectations; every photo was either beautiful, creative, or sentimental to us. 

As a bride, I felt like I could be fully present for our day; I didn’t even think about the photos because I had such high confidence in these two. They are an incredible team, professional, highly experienced, easy to be around, joyful, and passionate about helping you have an amazing experience. They will not miss capturing a single valuable moment, whether it’s the classic ‘walking down the aisle shot’ or the less obvious subtle details and interactions that you never saw (which end up being some of your favorite shots)!

The photos they offered us helped me see our wedding day from so many other perspectives that you naturally miss as the bride and groom, and that was a huge blessing! For example, my parents' faces during the ceremony, people stretching their hands out to pray for us, guests interacting during social hour, the faces of my bridesmaids as I walked down the aisle… I never expected that there would be so many special moments that I wouldn’t see during the wedding, so I am incredibly grateful that they were able to capture these. 

They really know how to sneak in and out and capture moments without you feeling like you’re in too much of a spotlight. Their words are encouraging and fun, and give you so much confidence, especially if you’re naturally more camera-shy! They have a great balance of allowing moments to occur spontaneously, while also offering tips and adjustments so you actually look good in your photos.

You only get to experience your wedding day once, but having excellent photos is such a treasure when you want to “relive” the day. Having Ben and Joanna was the BEST choice we could have made for preserving the memories of our wedding.

“Our favorite thing about working with Ben and Joanna was how prepared, calm, and confident they were the entire day!

In terms of getting set up for the engagement and wedding photos they were so fun to be around. Their energy was contagious and made each session so fun, relaxed, easy, romantic, everything! Ben and Joanna are genuine people that want to see you smile, laugh, and have fun! We enjoyed every second we had with them and wished we could have had more! 

Our “Golden Hour” photo is one that we love and look at every day! Every time we look at it those butterflies, those feelings - the entire day replays in our mind! Thank you, Ben and Joanna, for giving us a gift that gives every day!

When looking for a photographer, price shouldn’t matter! What you are looking for are people like Ben and Joanna, that 1. Care unconditionally about your day and truly want to make it special 2. Fun, energetic, organized! 3. Someone you connect with, that shares your same thoughts, and that also challenge your thoughts on how to make it better! 4. Experience and expertise. Those are the 4 things that mattered most to us and that’s what Ben and Joanna have!

“Wow! Where do we begin? Ben and Joanna are an amazing couple and their photographs are incredible.


Our favorite part about working with them was their attention to detail. There were so many special moments filled with love and joy on our wedding day and Ben and Joanna captured them beautifully.

Ben and Joanna were very committed to helping us stay present on our wedding day. We loved that about them. The first time Karl and I met with Ben and Joanna they suggested that we partake in a ‘Just Married Moment.’ So right after saying “I do,” Karl and I walked down the aisle together and took five minutes to be alone. We smiled, laughed, hugged, and talked about how excited we were to finally be Mr. and Mrs. Evenson. Ben and Joanna snapped a few photos from afar, and let’s just say it’s a moment that we’ll cherish forever. Another thing that really helped us feel present on our wedding day was a relaxed and flexible timeline. It was super important to Karl and I that we didn’t feel rushed or stressed, and this allowed us to spend quality time with family, friends, and vendors.”
