Behind-the-scenes-2.jpg

Our sessions don't feel like a photo shoot.

With just enough art direction, and lots of laughter, we establish trust, to keep our clients feeling relaxed and comfortable so they can let their true emotions and love shine.

As documentary photographers and filmmakers we unfold time to capture small details and big moments artistically, so when you look back at your images we want you to remember what it felt like to be there.

Core Photo Team:

CEO & CFO- Michaela & Tim O’Shea, CVO - Konnor Kraft

When we are not focusing our lens… we focus on kindness, patience & being unapologetically authentic (aka a little weird). That’s how we get you to smile. Our clients tend to hug us before they even see any photos.

Stealthiness is also a thing we do. At some point you will hardly notice we’re there… until you get your photos = we captured all the things.
