Because of this, we help YOU: 

Guidance You Can Trust

A huge win for many couples: feeling like they got to relax and experience their day.

They didn't have to worry about what they were supposed to do, where they were supposed to be, or when they were supposed to be there.

They didn't have to worry about how to cut their cake because we were there to guide them through the process. If hair & makeup was running behind, they didn't have to worry about catching up on the timeline because they trusted we had everything under control.

On your wedding day, we will be there to serve & guide you to make sure you get to live in the moment and experience your day.

We Want You To Win on Your wedding Day

Photographers Who Prioritize Your Wants & Desires

It isn't uncommon for couples to feel like they didn’t get to experience their wedding day and take in little moments because they felt rushed by vendors or family.

We want you to take in all of the little moments of your day without feeling rushed. We will support you in whatever you want to do. We believe in this so much that we will help you create a timeline that reflects your desires.

We've got your back & will do everything we can to ensure that your vision happens.

Let me clearly state our intentions for you on your wedding day

Comfortability from Start to Finish

Lets be honest....having your photo taken and being lovey dovey in front of the camera can feel awkward AF!

We truly believe that when couples are comfortable around us PRIOR to the wedding, magic will happen in front of the camera ON their wedding day. 
 




We promise that we will do our best to help you and your partner find yourselves in a state of comfortability!

you shouldn't feel awkward
on your wedding day!

Personalities and true emotions shine through in photos when comfortability is present!

Chris and Lara went above & beyond what photographers do. 

- Erin D.

"They knew exactly what to do and how to do it. Not sure how to cut the cake? They got you. Not sure how to bustle a dress? They got you. Behind on your timeline? They got you. On top of all that, they create some amazing pictures that you’ll cherish forever!"

client love

 "I was absolutely blown away by how much they cared about making sure we all felt completely prepared for the day and any challenges we went through. It felt like they were long-time friends of ours with how much laughter and love they poured into the experience. 100% recommend Chris and Lara, they were amazing."

- Emily

"They were friends, confidants, sounding boards, chaos wranglers and so much more! I basically tackled them when they showed up. I ran across the room in my fuzzy socks and slid into Chris & Lara before they were halfway in the door. I was so excited to see them."

- MEGAN

 I could go on and on about Chris and Lara. They kept the day on schedule & when unexpected things happened, they adjusted quickly and took charge so that things ran smoothly. On top of that, they are both such a joy to be around. We had the best time with them and wish we could do it all over again!

- Shelby

FAQ

All of your packages include 2 photographers, what if we only need one photographer?

We understand that everyone has a budget that they are working with to plan their wedding. We have chosen to include 2 photographers in every collection because without Chris or Lara the experience that we provide is incomplete! We each bring a unique skill set and strengths that work to create a completely unique and all-encompassing experience! With that being said, if you truly only want one photographer, reach out and let's chat! 

What is required to officially book Chris & Lara for our wedding?

All that's required to book us is a signed contract and paid reservation fee. The reservation fee is nonrefundable and is the same for every collection. It is $1,500 and to be paid within 7 days of contract signing. After these two things are done, we are officially official and your date is locked in.

How do payments work? Do we make payments or do one big lump sum?

Either of those options work for us! Payments can be divided up into equal sums and be made leading up to your wedding day or one large payment can be made. Full payment must be made within 30 days of the wedding date. 95% of our couples pay one big lump sum 30 days out!
