We are Erika and Stephen! 

We are fun loving, adventure seeking, nerdy people. We are based out of Armada, Michigan, but specialize in elopements in the Thumb (from Port Huron to Bay City including Bad Ax, Caseville, and Frankenmuth) and travel all over the state of Michigan. We love to travel all over the world and have personally traveled to places like South Africa, the UK, and Sweden. 

What's the advantage of hiring a husband and wife team? There are so many pros to hiring a team. We work so well together, we already know each other in and out, and we're within one company, to name a few. 

Not only does Stephen film weddings, he also films portrait sessions now. A film of your portrait session is the perfect addition to your still photographs and creates a whole other emotional impact for your portrait session. We have been photographing and filming weddings together since 2017 and Stephen has been filming weddings since the early 2000s. We've decided to team up  together to provide you with the WHOLE experience and ease of hiring a photographer and a videographer. 

Our style of photography and videography can be described as documentary with a flare of traditional. We want to show emotion through story telling for all kinds of photography that you may need. Our editing style is what most would consider dark and moody. We have some warmth to our work that adds those warm and fuzzy feelings. We do try our best to keep colors and other things more realistic feeling and looking in our work to make sure it represents your day the best. 

A little bit about our personal lives: We are laid back. Period. We love to spend a whole weekend lounging on the couch playing video games or watching movies together. Along with staying in, we are also looking for new places to explore outdoors whether it's by foot, car, bike, or kayak. Whatever we are doing, we are together 99.9% of the time. We've been together for 11 years and married for 6 of those years and absolutely in love and there for each other. 

In 2023, we traveled to South Africa and spent 2 weeks going on Safari, exploring a part of Johannesburg, and attending a good friends wedding in the Drakensburg Mountains. It was an unforgettable experience that we wouldn't mind repeating or creating new adventures around the world. It is so important to us to experience different cultures, people, and places. 

We are so inclusive of everyone! We are LGBTQ+ excepting and we do not exclude anyone based on religion, race, or sexual orientation and we want to make sure everyone is comfortable. We care about your pronouns, but we care about them because we want you to feel comfortable and feel like you're in a safe space to be yourself!
