about
the YOUNGRENS
One evening, Jeff asked me if I would take my hand out of my pocket and go on a walk with him. That was in 2003.
Ever since, we’ve been traveling the world photographing weddings for couples we love. But no matter where our cameras take us, we’ll always be hand in hand, going on our forever-walk together. Learn more about our hearts below.
hugs, Jeff & Erin
Jeff was the nerdy biology major studying all the time. Erin was the new student working at the front desk of the library. Unbeknownst to her, Jeff and his biology nerd friends started calling Erin the Hot Librarian. And when he took the Hot Librarian out on a date, he *officially* became King of the Nerds.
Our hearts clicked instantly.
Since then, we’ve been Jeff and Erin Youngren, world travelers, wedding photographers, foodies, and scooter riders. Over our decade of weddings, we’ve learned how to walk with our couples, slow them down on their wedding days, and help them savor every last precious detail. We believe your wedding day doesn’t have to fly by, and that you can remember so much more than you ever thought possible. You just need someone who’s been there before to help you savor. That’s where we come in.
We also believe:
Tradition is beautiful.
Timeless trumps trendy.
Life is best when it’s done together.
Home is where your heart has led you.
Bow-ties should never be pre-tied.
Tears, hugs, & high fives should never be held back.
