Stephen & Kaity
Based in Michigan City
Serving Chicago, Northwest Indiana & Beyond
We launched our business on the same day we got married. It just felt right. Photography brought us together in the first place. It began with our own love story, and now we help others preserve theirs.

Real Moments, deep meaning
Our approach is calm, artful, and rooted in storytelling
We feel so honored every time we’re invited to the most intimate and meaningful moments of people’s lives. What moves us most are the quiet, tender moments: the wind in her dress, a teary moment with mom while slipping into the gown, a glance that says everything without words.
Shaped by our love for Jesus and our belief that marriage is a reflection of something holy and enduring.
Outside of weddings, we’re raising two wild and sweet boys, making pour-over coffee, slow dancing in the kitchen, and dreaming up our next adventure.

"I was brought to (happy) tears when I saw our album. I could not believe how authentically and beautifully they were able to capture us. Kaity & Stephen are so passionate about their craft, and the moments they capture can say that better than anything I can write. I am so glad I have these photos to cherish for the rest of our lives."

"The beauty of these photos truly speak for themselves, and we couldn’t imagine our day being captured more perfectly. Every time my husband and I look at the photos, we fall in love a little more each time. They went above and beyond helping make this day come to life for us. We had a few meetings with them before our wedding day, and from the beginning we knew they had our best interests at heart. We cannot thank them enough."

"Stephen & Kaitlyn were incredible to work with for our wedding. They are both such amazing individuals and their passion for photography is truly unmatched. They are both extremely responsive and always made sure we got all that we wanted. You will not go wrong hiring these two!"

"Stephen was absolutely fantastic to work with! He shot our proposal and it was perfect. His attention to detail and intentionally in helping my fiancé plan everything including going to the spot earlier in the week, marking spots for us to stand and finding additional spots to take pictures meant everything to us. He made us feel so comfortable during the shoot and the pictures are perfect!"

Our Wedding Photo & Video Process
Inquire & Connect
Send us a note and share a little about your story. We'll set up a time to connect and dream together about your vision for your day and how we can bring it to life.
Plan & Prepare
From timelines to lighting to meaningful locations, we’ll guide you through every detail so your day feels smooth, intentional, and fully you.
Capture the Story
On your wedding day we show up fully present, ready to document every moment. We’ll take initiative when needed and step back when the story speaks for itself.
Preserve & Deliver
After your day, we carefully edit and craft your final gallery and films, preserving your memories as timeless heirlooms for you and future generations.
Relive It Together
You'll get a message from us letting you know we're ready to send your gallery. Set a date night. Make the charcuterie board. Grab the tissues. Then sit back and take it all in together... the beauty, the emotion, and the sacredness of marriage. It'll be more than just reliving your day, it’s seeing your marriage through new eyes.
OUR PROCESS
let's create magic together!
Where We're Headed
Serving the Midwest & beyond
Though we’re based in the Northwest Indiana and Chicago area, our work often takes us throughout Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and beyond. We’ve had the honor of photographing weddings across the U.S. and internationally, and we’re always open to wherever the story leads. We also frequently travel to Colorado, Florida, and Texas for both work and life.
If you’re planning a wedding or elopement that feels like you—whether it’s nestled in the woods, by the water, or somewhere entirely unexpected—we’d love to be there. We’re happy to travel wherever your story takes you.
