Brad & Jen | Photographers & Mentors

One of the first questions we ask every couple is, “What matters most to you about your wedding day?”

Almost every answer comes back to the same thing - the people.

Friends flying in from across the country. Parents meeting the college crew for the first time. Cousins who haven’t seen each other in years. Childhood friends, work friends, old families, new families. All in one place.

You don’t get to your wedding day without your people.

They were there long before the wedding, and they’ll be there long after it. They’re just as much a part of the story.

And years from now, those photographs become time capsules.

They remind you who was there. How young everyone looked. The friendships that shaped your life. The people who celebrated you before careers changed, kids arrived, and life pulled everyone in different directions.

A wedding is one of the few moments in life where everyone pauses to say, “We’re here. We love you. We’re with you.”

That’s why our cameras are always pointed in more than one direction.

One toward the two people getting married. The other toward the people who helped them get there.
