    OUR APPROACH

    We are Visual Storytellers and approach every shoot as a collaboration. We want the shooting experience to be fun and easy—it’s how we capture photos that are True to You. We Seek Beauty believing that nothing is more beautiful than our relationships, and by being Fully Present we are able to create the moments, interactions and experiences that honor our bonds with those who are dear. Our greatest desire is that years from now you’ll look back on your photos and remember these days as if they were yesterday. We are Memory Makers.

    WORDS

    Next to Me Studios were the stars of our wedding! We absolutely loved working with them. They were so fun and helped us feel comfortable while taking what could be quite awkward photos for two shy people such as ourselves. The finished photos were breathtaking! They listened to what was important to us (the details, a soft romantic finish, lots of candid shots) and delivered in the best way possible.
