your
EXPERIENCE
Wedding days fly by, but we believe you can remember so much more of your celebration than you ever thought possible. Here’s how we help you slow down, take it all in, and savor every detail.
hugs, Jeff & Erin
PAUSE. BREATHE. LISTEN.
Our goal is for your photos to transport you back to the moment they were taken. But you won’t remember anything if the day moves too fast. We’ll step in to help you pause, take a deep breath, and listen to the sounds of your celebration.
OUR PROCESS
Weddings can be complicated creatures, so we keep things simple. We’ll start by getting to know your story, and then we’ll put our time-honored process in motion to tell it beautifully.
Learn more about the Jeff & Erin journey below.
PLAN
The first step is to sit down with us or talk over the phone (our couples are busy – we get it!) We’ll pour some tea, hear your love story, pick out an album, and reserve your date.
Once you’ve booked with us, we’ll work closely with your coordinator to put together the perfect schedule of photography and list of family portraits. We’ll scout photo locations and dial in every last detail so you can focus on other important things – like perfecting your cat-like dance moves for the after party…
CELEBRATE
You tie the knot. We make gorgeous images. We all high five. While you’re flying off to your honeymoon, our editors will begin perfecting your images for you to enjoy.
Your only job on the wedding day is to stay present and celebrate your hearts out. After the wedding, we’ll share our favorite images via blog, Facebook, Instagram, and carrier pigeon. You’ll love them all.
Important Disclaimer: We cannot be held fully responsible for the tears of joy from the resulting images.
PRESERVE
Once your final images are finished, we’ll begin perfecting your album designs as well as selecting your favorite images to produce fine-art prints for your home.
This is one of the most important steps in the process, but sadly, it’s usually the most forgotten. This is the time that we help you preserve your memories for generations to come through your wedding album and fine-art for your home. Because your memories should live in a frame on your wall – not on a USB in a drawer.
WHEREVER THOU ART...
…that is home.

THE ENGAGEMENT SESSION
Our couples invest in engagement sessions for two reasons. First, to experience our photographic process and get comfortable with our cameras. Second, to preserve who they are at this rare and fleeting time in their lives – that special place in between the ‘Yes’ and the ‘I do.’

YOUR WEDDING ALBUM
Technology changes rapidly. Your memories shouldn’t.
YOUR HEIRLOOM
You will adore your wedding album in these first precious years, but your album isn’t actually meant for today. Your album is meant for all of your tomorrows.
SIMPLE + CLASSIC
Is your family opening their albums to share their weddings?
When the next generation gets engaged, we know you’ll do the same. You’ll open your own album and laugh and cry just as much as your family is right now.
Because of this, our albums are strong and classic. Yours will be just as beautiful on your thirtieth anniversary as it is on your first.
THE YOUNGRENS ARE AMAZING

Below are the most common questions we receive from our couples. If we don’t answer your question here, contact us below to find out more.
Do you always shoot together?
Yes! Life is much more fun when we do it together, so you’ll never see us shooting a wedding apart. This means you always get two primary photographers instead of one primary and a second that you don’t know. You can rest assured it will always be our smiling faces walking into the getting ready room instead of a stranger.
I'm not getting married in San Diego. Will you travel to my wedding?
Absolutely! We’ve traveled all over the U.S. and all over the world for our wonderful couples, and we know how to make the process super easy. We’ll create a custom quote for you based on your location and we’ll take care of booking our travel ourselves. You don’t have to worry about a thing!
I don't live near you. Can we do everything over the phone?
Of course! Most of our couples don’t live here in San Diego, so our process is tailored for busy couples planning from afar. We’ll set up a phone call to get to know each other and then the entire booking process happens online from there.
Do you photograph with film as well as digital? I love the feel of it!
We do! We will capture your entire day on digital no matter what, but we also adore the natural, classic look of medium format film. If you’d love to have your day captured on film, too, you can add it to your photography collection with us.
Do you provide videography as well?
We focus solely on still photography so we don’t personally provide videography. However, we know some amazing cinematography teams that we highly recommend and absolutely LOVE working with. Contact us for their info!
