Hello! from the best photo and video elopement team in Michigan!

We are a fun loving, adventure seeking, nerdy couple who do basically everything together. We have been together for over 12 years and married for over 6. You probably have already received a lot of advice about relationships, marriage, and actually getting married from your friends and family so we are not hear to give you advice on your relationship. We've been through the same things you are going through right now with planning your wedding day and have learned a lot from planning our own wedding and photographing weddings for the past 7 years. It's so easy to get lost in all of the overload of information that is out there and the best advice we CAN give you, is to take time for just the two of you during the planning process, on your actual wedding day, and for the years after. It's so important to make sure you take the time for yourselves.

Hello! We are Erika and Stephen

You love animals. You love to travel and discover new places. You love to spend your free time together watching movies and playing video games. You've come to the right place. We've got all that and more. 

Our pets are our children. We have a sweet senior dog and a cat with a huge personality and we absolutely love it when couples involve their pets on their wedding day!  

We also spend most of our time together. Even when we can't physically be with each other, we've have literally spoken in some form to each other every single day since the day we met over 13 years ago.

Our dedication to our couples goes beyond just creating memories through photographs and video. We are very creative people naturally and we want to create a creative experience and in turn create art to represent you as a couple. Our dedication to our couples is creating a lasting relationship and keeping that important communication between us in order for you, our couple, to feel comfortable with us and confident in us to be able to have the best experience you can get. 

This leads into the fact that we are very inclusive people. We hold a no judgement zone at all times and we are accepting of the LGBTQ+ community. We do not exclude anyone based on religion, race, or sexual orientation and we want to make sure everyone feels comfortable in their own skin. We care about your pronouns, but we are about them because we want you to feel comfortable and feel like you're in a safe space to be yourself!

Do you like to travel? So do we! One thing we do strive to do is travel to new places. We like to experience new places with new cultures, try new food, and try new experiences. A lot of times we like to center our trips around historical locations where we can learn about the history of a place. 

In 2023, we became world travelers together and took our first official trip together out of the country. We spent 2 weeks in South Africa, primarily for a friend's wedding in the mountains, but also spent a few days on safari and a few days relaxing in the mountains. It was a fantastic experience to be able to experience new things and to talk with local people to learn about their cultures.
