Heres a skosh about us!

Love endures. Our love story played out across the oceans, across the mountains and across half a decade before we finally got our chance to say 'I do'. During those years, we endured exorbitant phone bills, tens-of-thousands of miles traveled, and every conceivable form of email miscommunication. We endured incompatible time zones, lightning fast weekend visits and bad cell reception. What endured was an appreciation for silent conversations, carpooling and unpacking into dresser drawers... A love so unique it could only be ours. Your love story has brought you to this moment - your wedding. Our passion is to capture your journey across this day and provide you with memories that reflect why your love endures.

~ Rob, Christine and Ella
