Our Story

Our story together began four years ago, and it's been one big adventure ever since. We started in Omaha, Nebraska, where we explored everything the Midwest had to offer. But when we’d seen all we could, we set our sights on something new—and that’s when we found the Great Smoky Mountains.

With our cat in tow, we moved to Knoxville, TN, and instantly fell in love with the South. The Smokies, with their rolling mountains, waterfalls, and endless scenic views, became our playground. Every trail, every overlook, every hidden gem felt like a perfect place to explore—and to share with couples like you.

Our love for adventure and nature is what drives our passion for photography and videography. We believe elopements and intimate weddings are the purest expression of love—no distractions, just the two of you and the beauty of Tennessee around you. We feel so honored to document these once-in-a-lifetime moments for couples who want to say “I do” surrounded by the breathtaking Tennessee mountains. Whether it's the iconic views of Cades Cove, the sweeping vistas from the Foothills Parkway, or the secret waterfalls tucked deep in the forest, we love helping couples find the perfect location that reflects their unique love story.

Working together as a couple makes what we do even more meaningful. We share a deep connection and understanding that helps us create a relaxed, enjoyable experience for our clients. And every time we capture a couple’s wedding day, we’re reminded of the love and bond we share. It’s a reminder of why we’re so passionate about what we do.

We can’t wait to be part of your wedding adventure in the Smoky Mountains. Whether you’re planning a quiet elopement or a small, intimate celebration, we’d love to help tell your story and create memories that will last a lifetime.
