Genuine

Moments & Emotions

Large weddings can often feel like a production. The guests are the audience and the couple the staring performers, their parts memorized and rehearsed to perfection. But you're not a performer, and more often than not stage fright kicks in and you'll find yourself reeling in your emotions. This is why we constantly encourage couples to forget about everyone else and just focus on each other.

​

When you remove the audience, you open yourself up to freedom in expression and showing your true self. You'll allow yourself to be vulnerable with the one you love and it'll show up so beautifully in your images.

BREAK

TRADITION & EXPECTATIONS

Your wedding, your rules. This is a mantra shouted in wedding groups all over the internet, but let's be honest, it's hard to stand firm when everyone has an opinion and you're trying to meet expectations of family and friends. When you break that first expectation of a big wedding and start planning a small wedding or elopement, it's a lot easier to do your own thing and be less concerned with pleasing everyone else.

You'll find yourself stressing a lot less when your only worry is doing what you and your partner want. There's no rule saying you have to do things the traditional way, so do your wedding your way and you'll be much happier.

EYES ONLY FOR YOU

Large weddings fall into the time traps of receiving lines, table-to-table mingling, and group photos of every combination. By the time the night is over, you'll be exhausted and have only spent spare moments with your new spouse. When you plan a wedding with fewer guests or even with no guests, the entire day is yours to enjoy with your spouse. No time limits. No obligations to anyone else. 

​

This is your day. These are your moments to soak in.

BE WED ANYWHERE ANYTIME

When you choose to elope or have a micro wedding, the options are limitless as to where and when you can have your nuptials. You no longer have to search for large event halls or ballrooms for the ever popular Saturday dates. However if you still want that beautiful ballroom, you have a pretty good chance of booking it for a weekday date instead. Thinking beyond traditional venues, you'll open yourself up to the possibilities of more you or more meaningful locations. Perhaps a family picnic wedding in your grandparents' backyard or a bonfire wedding at your favorite campsite. Your love doesn't have to be restricted to a Saturday at the country club.

Let your imagination loose and see where your love takes you.
