The BEST work happens when our couples “click” with us. The CONNECTION we make TOGETHER is KEY to the type of photos we do. It comes as little surprise that our outside-of-work friend circle grows each year to include many of our previous clients.
We are your eyes and ears throughout the day, so building trust with each couple is a big part of the type of imagery we focus on.
In other words, we're not going to be weird, boorish, or make photos with only our portfolio in mind. We're intentional documentarians, we don't balk at challenges and we blend in with your guests (most guests at weddings assume we're just guests who love to photograph our friends).
We're going to make photos that will mean something for YOU not just today, but in ten, twenty, even FIFTY years on. We approach each wedding with this purpose.
To give our couples the attention they deserve, we keep a limit on how many events we can shoot per year. It's sometimes a little hard to do, but we want to show up fresh and focused so that we can give it all we've got. We can't do that if we're burning the candle at both ends. Rested eyes = better photos.
Joel and Justyna are amazing. We were fortunate enough to have them for our engagement shoot and wedding day, and couldn't recommend them enough. They bring such great energy and vision to capture those special moments that most photogs miss. Their work speaks for itself, but we absolutely loved working with them... On the day of it was like we had two great friends to help us through the day. They are such a good team that they just make everyone relax.
Thank you Joel and Justyna for the beautiful collection of memories, these photos are some of our most prized possessions.

Joel and Justyna,
We. Are. OBSESSED. These photos are amazing. You somehow managed to capture all the energy and emotion of the day. I've already gone through them a couple times and know that's all I'll be doing today.
I want to thank the two of you from the bottom of my heart. Wayyyyy back when we started planning, we put photographer at the top of our list of vendors because we had a very specific vision in our head of what we wanted. Venue, dress, flowers - it wouldn't matter what we chose as long as we had a photographer (or, in this case, two) who could capture it all in a timeless, artistic way. You are all that and more. We looked through so many (SO many) photographer's portfolios before we found you, and I'm so glad we did. I could not be happier with these images and will cherish them for the rest of my life.
We've already gotten so many compliments on the images that we've shared with our friends and family, I know they're going to be just as thrilled with these as we are. We're hosting Christmas Eve dinner for the first time tonight and I can't wait to show everyone!!
Thank you again. Seriously.

My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Joel and Justyna. They were so wonderful to work with and the photos are stunning. Joel and Justyna have a certain sense of calm that really helped Nate (my husband) and I navigate our wedding day. They captured the emotions and the romance of the evening perfectly. Booking them was easily the best decision we made!

Joel & Justyna were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Sweet yet professional, they were a lovely addition to our wedding day. They made sure that photos did not take us away from the act of getting married and then celebrating it! Additionally, they made things as comfortable and organic as possible, especially for two people who hate having their pictures taken. None of the photos felt or looked too forced. We are thrilled with the photos from that day. They are beautiful, unique, and artful.

Joel & Justyna,
To say that we are absolutely blown away and in love with the photos you both captured on our wedding day would be a massive understatement. WOW! We are so, so over the moon with the moments, the love and the energy you captured that day. We've probably watched the slideshow 15x and cried every time. Each time we see another family member or friend, we can't wait to share some of these photos with them. You both perfectly captured the day we knew we wanted to have forever, and those we never even knew we needed. We wouldn't have wanted to work with anyone else. We received so many compliments about your work and your presence as individuals, and Rishi and I could not agree more. Thank you so much for everything, we are forever grateful. Hope our paths cross again!
With love,
Dan & Rishi
