Queer-owned · Documentary-inspired · Heart-led
You don’t need to know how to pose. You don’t need to be “photogenic.”
You just need to show up as yourselves — we’ll take it from there.
Our couples sessions are part documentary, part gentle guidance. We’ll help you feel comfortable, give you prompts that feel natural, and make space for the small moments that say everything.
We’re queer-owned, and we know how meaningful it is to have your moment documented by someone who truly gets it. Pronouns, boundaries, family dynamics, and identity are respected from the start, always.
Proposals are fast, emotional, and impossible to redo, so planning matters.
We’ll help you choose the best spot, the best timing (hello golden hour), and a simple plan to keep it a surprise. Then we’ll document the moment quietly, respectfully, and beautifully — so you can relive it forever.
Custom collections available for intimate gatherings, bold celebrations, and everything in between.
Whether you’re planning a surprise proposal, marking an anniversary, or just want a session that feels like you, every love story deserves to be seen, celebrated, and remembered. We offer couples and proposal photography and videography that is always affirming and always focused on your unique connection.

We capture the big moments and the quiet ones.
The chaos, the stillness, the laughter, the tears.
Everything that makes your story yours.
Your identities, cultural practices, chosen family, comfort levels, and boundaries guide every decision we make. We show up for you — not a version of you you’re expected to perform.
We’re here for every question — from logistics to nerves to “Is this idea weird?” (Answer: never.)
You inquire. We chat. You book. We celebrate.
We plan together. Then we document your day
with intention.
Most couples sessions last 60–90 minutes, which gives us time to explore the location and capture natural moments together.
For proposals, we plan around the big moment. After the proposal, we usually spend 30–60 minutes taking engagement-style photos so you can celebrate and soak it all in.
No rushing. Just time to enjoy the moment.
The most meaningful photos usually happen in places that already matter to your story. Your favorite park, a coffee shop you love, a scenic trail, or anywhere that feels comfortable together.
If you’re not sure where to go, we’re always happy to help. We know lots of beautiful spots around Texas and Arkansas. A few favorites include Griggs Park for a downtown Dallas vibe, Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in Plano, and Murrell Park in Flower Mound. In Arkansas, we love visiting the Capitol, public parks, and cozy cafes.
The goal is simple: keep it romantic, keep it you.
Yes. We love helping plan proposals!
We can help you choose the location, figure out the best timing and lighting, and plan how the moment will unfold so it stays a surprise.
You focus on asking the question.
We’ll take care of capturing it.
Start with connection.
You’ll spend a lot of time with your photographer, so it’s important to choose someone who makes you feel comfortable, supported, and fully yourself.
Look for a style you love, a portfolio that reflects real emotion, and a photographer whose values align with yours.
Most importantly, choose someone who sees and celebrates your story, not someone trying to fit you into a template.
When you feel relaxed and safe with your photographer, the photos naturally follow.
Are you interested in family or couples photography? We'll ensure we capture a variety of angles, groupings, and poses so that each image looks and feels unique.
We always send sneak peeks first.
For proposals especially, we try to send a few images within a few hours so you can share the big news right away.
Your full gallery will follow shortly after, fully edited and ready to download and share.
If you can, we highly recommend it.
Photos capture the moment beautifully, but video lets you hear the reactions, the laughter, and the words you say to each other.
Together, photo and video tell the full story.
You want photos + video that feel real, warm, and alive
You value documentary moments over perfection
You want a team who respects and celebrates your identities
You want guidance when you need it, space when you don’t
You want a calm, grounding presence at your session
You believe joy, awkward hugs, and inside jokes matter
