OUR APPROACH

Less perfect, more real

Let's keep it real and fun! This is how we create wedding photos that that bring you back to that exact moment, like it never ended.

 

We’ll fluff your dress when its needed, adjusting your timeline on the fly, kick off our shoes to sprint to catch something cool happening, & make sure no one forgets to eat (I’ve got beef jerky in my bag at all times). We’ve pinned boutonnieres, handed out Advil, kept secrets, herded tipsy groomsmen, and once loaned out a camera to a videographer mid-ceremony after theirs toppled into a fountain (The footage survived. Their camera… didn’t)

 

You won’t find us silently lurking in a corner—we’re fully in it with you. We know how much thought you’ve put into this weekend, and we care just as much about documenting the vibe and making sure you get to live it. We’re watching the light, the energy, and your people. We know when to step in and when to disappear. And like a much deserved reward, we’ll hand you a cocktail the second we’re done with portraits!

 

We care about how your wedding day looks and how it feels. We’re not here to force fake moments or make it about viral content. We’re going to keep things moving, make you look incredible, and help the day feel the way you hoped it would—effortless, joyful, and completely yours.

you live in the moments,

we make sure they last forever.

"We wanted Katie & Jay for our destination wedding in Key West because we fell in love with their style & they seemed like they would be a lot of fun to hang out with on our wedding day! They perfectly captured the feel & emotions of our wedding and we couldn't be happier. If you're loving their aesthetic & thinking about it, just book them. As soon as you can. They're magic."

I'M KATIE

I'm Katie

Gemini. Former Disney cast member. Dual citizen.

Blame The Secret Garden for my obsession with gardens, historic places, and fashion. If a wedding takes place at a private estate draped in florals, a historic venue with stories in its walls, or anywhere fashion-forward guests are sipping champagne—I’m in my element.

 

On wedding days, you’ll catch me in a colorful outfit that feels more like a guest than a vendor (because let’s be real—people relax waaay more when they think a friend is behind the camera)! It’s my secret weapon for capturing those effortlessly candid moments that feel alive.

 

Born & raised on Long Island with a lifelong love of all things paranormal because I not only grew up in 2 haunted houses in NY, but our house in Charleston was haunted + our Tampa house is too (we live off a cemetery) so naturally, Halloween is my favorite holiday, but I still can’t pick between Spring and Fall as my favorite season.

 

I’m the nerdy one. My desk is practically an anime and Disney shrine, and I have a big Sailor Moon tattoo to prove it. I worked at Disney World, and Jay proposed in front of Rapunzel’s tower, which was the easiest “yes” of my life!

 

As of Fall 2024, I became a dual citizen of Ireland! My grandma was from County Donegal, which allowed my sisters and me to file for Foreign Birth citizenship. Now, working weddings in Europe is even easier—I can hop on a plane without the visa hassle!

a.k.a John

Former pop-punk singer. TV Extra. Celebrity Photographer.

I've been playing Disc Golf for over 15 years & used to be sponsored by Innova. On top of that, I've put on my course designer hat and designed several Disc Golf courses.

 

Before I picked up a camera, I was a pop-punk frontman for my band called Neglected Superhero & for our last show, we opened for Andrew W.K. We also played Warped Tour two years in a row in Tampa, which, fun fact, Katie was at one of those shows in 2005 — years before we knew each other! Small world, right?

 

I used to volunteer at a Big Cat Rescue in Tampa (not Carole Baskin’s). I taught a timberwolf to howl "I Love You" and a bear chased me once.

 

I love living a mile outside of downtown Tampa and jumping on my bike and going to Thunder Alley to watch the Lightning play.

 

I have a photography studio in Ybor where I do headshots, product photography & more. I've photographed some cool celebrities & sometimes work in the camera department on t.v. and film sets. Most recently I've worked on Outer Banks, Vice Principals (you can see me as an Extra in Season 2) and The Righteous Gemstones (I asked Joe Jonas if he's ever acted before while filming Season 2)

Does this sound like you?

Our best work happens when couples trust us to do our thing, go all in on the experience, and choose to be present over perfect.

 

You’re not here to follow someone else’s wedding rulebook. You’re here to throw a party that feels like you! If a little champagne spills on your outfit, your dress drags through the grass, your bowtie is a little skewed, or a few unexpected surprises pop up—you’re rolling with it, because the best moments happen when you let go and just live.

 

You’re doing things your way. No forced traditions, no fake smiles—just a celebration that’s as fun, stylish, and one-of-a-kind as you are!
