Experience

YOUR WEDDING VISION BROUGHT TO LIFE

TO our FUTURE CLIENTS,

We’re not just there to capture moments, we’re invested in crafting a visual narrative that reflects your personalities, the style and the emotions of your wedding day.

Our cherished Couples embody kindness, creativity, and a penchant for thinking beyond conventions. They cherish style, aesthetics, draw inspiration from timeless fashion, valuing tradition for its significance rather than mere adherence. Their dream wedding is a reflection of themselves, adventurous, explorative, and authentically unique. Above all, they treat others with profound love and respect, prioritize family, and recognize their wedding day as a beautiful expression of their union.


We appreciate and embrace the understanding that our approach might not resonate with everyone.  If you want prom photos for your wedding, we are not the photography team for you.  There's a deep joy in connecting with couples who share our values and perspectives on love and style. It's always an incredible experience and  gift when the right individuals collaborate. 


We’re eagerly looking forward to connecting with you, learning about your unique story, and embarking on a journey to create magic together!  - The Lovers Archives

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • We are based out of Los Angeles, CA. We frequently photograph weddings all over Southern California, but we can travel anywhere in the world!

  • Yes! We specialize in film and digital photography and our team has been shooting both formats side by side for years. Our team does shoot modern pro digital camera bodies, but we anchor our signature style in the look and feel of film.

  • We do offer Video Services and specialize in Super 8 Films, a lovely addition for modern lovers. All of my wedding videography and Super 8 film packages are custom to fit your specific needs.

  • It usually depends on the time of year and how busy I am in any given season. I deliver an edited preview in 24-72 hours and my typical turnaround time for a fully edited gallery is between 8-10 weeks due to film development and processing as we work with the best local film labs in Socal.

  • Navigating this is quite the challenge! Nowadays, couples are vocal about their aversion to stiff, forced looking photos, a sentiment we wholeheartedly share. When people are at ease and enjoying themselves, that joy naturally shines through in the photos. Rather than fixating on rigid poses, a skilled photography team should focus on capturing connections, making subtle adjustments along the way. Often, the most magical shots emerge from those fleeting, unplanned moments

    While we hesitate to be labled solely as a "Doscumentary-style" photography team, as most couples seek guidance for their portraits, we don't strictly pose or lurk around like a private investigator. The distinction between posed and candid shots can sometimes blur in my work. We aim to be present with our couples and their guests, collaborating to craft stunning wedding photos that fulfill their dreams!

  • Our goal as your photography team is to make you feel comfortable and have fun while making beautiful photos. Our process is easygoing and natural and we are here to guide and support you every step of the way.

  • Our style is contemporary with a fusion of editorial and documentary that's lively and poetic and has emphasis on a nostalgic and vintage film influence for a cinematic feel.

  • We have a love for capturing and documenting these moments for my clients and treat every story with care and pure enthusiasm.

    Always work with someone professional and skilled with a huge passion and love for what they do.

    That would be us.

  • Fill out our inquiry form and be as descriptive as possible.  We will respond within 72 hours.  We require a 30% non-refundable retainer to hold the date and then we can start planning to photograph your wedding!
