everything you need to know about our signature
We believe your wedding day will be one of the most important and special days of your life together. One that you’ll want to remember and reflect back on often.
We built our collections with this thought in mind. In every collection, we’ll guide you to be present on your wedding day so you’ll experience the celebration more deeply than you thought possible.
We know how to photograph the moments you’ll want to remember. The ones that will bring back memories of your day. We are intentional every time we click our shutters.
After photographing so many weddings over the years, we know what to look for to create the full story of your wedding day. And after the day is over, we’ll curate your album from the heart of telling the most authentic and meaningful story of your day, from the perspective of someone that will be viewing and loving your story 30 years from now.
We’re a husband and wife that believe there is nothing better than marrying your best friend. We got married a few years ago, surrounded by our favorite people in the world. Knowing what we know now, we wish we could do it all over again.
We wish someone would have told us to pause, breathe, and listen. To take in all of the celebrations happening around us. We wish we would have been more present on our day. We believe presence matters. We help our couples slow down on their wedding day so they can experience the moments, big and small, fully. So they can feel their celebrations and the love of those surrounding them more deeply.
We’re looking forward to meeting you, learning more about your life together, and your wedding dreams, so we can help you create a legacy of presence.
hi there friends!
Love notes from J&S Couples
Lauren & Scott Whitney
Your day will have unique moments that no other wedding will have, and we’ll give you the gift of reliving these moments in your images. But our desire is never for our images to replace your memories, but for the images to transport you back to the exact moment it was taken. And to do so, we believe you have to be present.
We’ll guide you to be present on your wedding day so you will experience this time together more deeply than you ever thought possible. Which means your future generations will experience it, too. We promise to help you create a legacy of presence starting on the day of your marriage.
In a busy world, you deserve to be present on your wedding day.
Your wedding day is an experience from beginning to end and photography is a huge part of that experience. We believe it should be fun, enjoyable, and natural! Our goal is to not only capture memories for our couples, but to create an experience you'll never forget.
As a JS Couple
We’ll schedule a time to chat with each other. We want to get to know you and your fiancé. The things you hold most dear, the story of your relationship, and your vision for your wedding day. We’ll share how we can bring your vision to life, our creative process, and what your day will look like with us. Upon booking, we will begin planning your engagement session.
Grab a glass of bubbly, an espresso, or your drink of choice and let's chat!
Let's meet!
We’ll begin planning your engagement session soon after booking. We’ll help you find the perfect location, offer styling advice, and set an ideal time for gorgeous photos. Your engagement session is a valuable experience, as it gives you a chance to get comfortable with us and in front of our cameras so you feel relaxed on your wedding day.
And now the fun beings!
Engagement Session
We’ll work with you or your wedding planner to create a photography timeline that allows us enough time to document all of the important parts of your day. We’ll take into consideration your venue, the time the sun sets, lighting, and the season of your wedding.
Getting organized so we're ready for anything!
Custom Timeline
We’ll document the story of your wedding day the way it unfolds, getting a mix of candid photos and portraits. We’ll help you be present in the moment, to savor and experience all of the things, big and small, that make your wedding day so unique.
The day you marry your best friend!
Your Wedding Day
After your wedding, we will begin to carefully process and refine your images. An online gallery full of your gorgeous images will be delivered to you within 4 weeks of your wedding date. From your gallery, you’ll be able to download your high-resolution images, share them with family and friends, and order professional prints.
Reminisce with family & friends
Your Gallery
A handcrafted linen or leather album is a beautiful heirloom to tell the story of your wedding day. And it’s a beautiful testimony of the love you have for each other. We’ll design every page with photos from your gallery to encapsulate the memories you have from your wedding day. Once it looks perfect we’ll send it to print, and your first heirloom will be on its way to you.
Time to grab the tissues!
Heirloom Albums
Within one month we’ll send you a gallery full of photos of your wedding day. But our greatest fear is that they’ll be downloaded onto your computer and then forgotten, shared once, or never to be shared at all.
We believe your wedding photos deserve to be shared, openly, with loved ones and guests in your home. Your wedding album is going to be a staple of your marriage. It will tell the complete story of the day you became a husband or a wife. A detailed and visual representation of the beginning of your legacy of love.
We will design each page of your album with you and your memories in mind. Memories that you’ll take with you as you grow your family, move into a new house, and celebrate each anniversary.
We believe in investing in your future. And your wedding album is an investment for you, your children, and all the generations after you. It’s a strong and safe home for your wedding photos and the perfect ending to the perfect wedding.
