Our inspiration for picking up the camera has and always will be our couples. Katrina and I have been fortunate enough to not only have these people accept us to document the most important day of their lives, but also to accept us to be their friends and family. Your stories are our life.

Brandon started his photography career in college when he joined the school newspaper. A passion for capturing real moments and telling the story led him to become the photography editor and win several awards for his coverage within only a year. Shortly afterwards he began shooting weddings with Katrina using this same style. The rest is history.

Mariana + Daniel, Australia

Minnesota native Mariana met Daniel while he was visiting the United States a few years ago. After Daniel went back home to Australia they kept closely touch via their daily e-mails. After only a couple visits back and forth Daniel proposed by giving her a letter in a bottle… on a gondola off the coast of Australia. After meeting them we understood why the distance couldn’t keep them apart. Documenting their every stare, touch, and kiss told us that they were one of those “meant to be” couples. Right before the wedding Mariana dropped everything in America and made the move to Daniel’s country where they will be spending their new life together.
