“Amazing… the best decisions we made while planning our wedding was to book Brian and Joelle as our photographers. Not only because they took gorgeous photographs - they really played such a bigger part in our day! They helped us draft a day-of timeline and more importantly ensured we stayed on track with said timeline throughout the day! Both Brian and Joelle are friendly and professional, and do a fantastic job of keeping everyone’s energy up. If you can book them for your event - DO IT!” — Kay + Jay
