one: start a friendship!
We believe that building a friendship adds value to your legacy. We’ll get to know one another over dinner or schedule a video call if you can’t meet in person. After we get to know each other, we will determine if we are a match made in heaven and send all the necessary information to start building your customized legacy.
two: save the date
Let's make this dream a reality and secure your date. We will send you an online booking proposal to review your packages and pay your retainer fee to make it official. Once you’re an official S+B bride and groom, we’ll get started!
three: engagements
The fun begins! After working together to choose the perfect locations, we will start capturing the joy of this new season of your life together! Your engagement session is vital in helping you feel comfortable working with us while allowing you to feel like yourselves with no stress. Your only job is to love each other, and don’t worry, we’ll teach you the rest!
four: timeline chat
A few weeks out from your wedding day, we will prepare a timeline for a wedding day, in which you can celebrate and take photos you’ll adore for a lifetime! We are available to help with anything you may need — vendor recommendations, timeline preparation, planning suggestions and more. We love creating timelines to ensure you don’t miss out on your dream photos. Brian’s the expert at this.
five: wedding day!
It’s your big day! We believe in capturing the full story of your wedding day, so we never shoot for less than 8 hours. We’ll arrive early to take flatlay and detail photos, before gathering the bridal and groom parties for portraits. Shannon’s a wedding dress and boutonniere expert, so just ask if you need help buttoning things up! We pay close attention to details, fluffing dresses and fixing hair. Our priority is to capture all the traditional shots, as well as the in-between moments.
six: fall in love all over again1
After your wedding day is over, you can expect your full gallery within 5-8 weeks of your wedding day, but you’ll see sneak peeks within a week! With your online gallery, you can easily download, share and print your wedding day memories. When you see your photos for the first time, we encourage you to sit down with a glass of wine and relive the start of your legacy together all over again. Soon after your gallery is delivered, we will work to create your beautifully designed album if you choose to order this beautiful heirloom piece!
I cannot recommend anyone more than Brian and Shannon. They say a picture is worth 1,000 words, but the photos these two take, are worth so many more. Not only is their turn around time great, but their attention to detail is top notch. Brian and Shannon are amazing photographers, but they are even better people. Their hearts are made of gold and they take such pride in what they do. We were so comfortable from day one.

We can’t sing enough praises to Brian and Shannon for saving the day! Seriously, they have been tremendous help! Glad God brought you both into our lives and to photograph our wedding!

Shannon & Brian are an amazing team. Warm and welcoming always. You will never leave disappointed. We had our biggest moments photographed, our wedding day and our daughters newborn pictures. Both are absolutely stunning and at such an awesome price. We won’t go anywhere else for our future moments.

Where do I begin about these two beautiful souls? From day one, you made our experience the best ever!! We love you both and are so thankful for you. Your work and your hearts speak for themselves. We could never thank you enough.
