I (Jamie) tried to write this in the third person and it weirded me out, so here I am. First person. Hey. Hi. I graduated from Syracuse University with a Masters in Social Work. After 10 years in the field, I retired from my position in an Elementary School to pursue Photography full-time. I love breakfast foods at any hour, rock and ice climbing, hiking, skiing and checking my ego on a mountain bike. I live in Lake Placid, NY with my husband Justin and my rescue dog, Blu.

Ryan, my business partner and older brother (by 4 years!) lives in Sandy Creek, NY with his wife Leann and their two little ones, Lorelei and Gus. Ryan is a numbers guy. And a jokes guy. Ryan graduated from SUNY Oswego with a degree in Math. He has spent some time building and selling houses and has definitely taken all of your money if you’ve ever sat across from him during a game of poker. 

We grew up in a house 35 minutes from the closest grocery store. The bedrooms were small, but warm. The kitchen smelled like garlic or baked apple pie or chicken and dumpling soup. Our father left for work often before we were out of bed. 

Ryan once wrapped me in blankets, put me in a barrel and sent me rolling down a hill. Our mother waited at the bottom with her camera. I emerged with a mouthful of laughter. My hair, darker then, reached in all directions as I crawled out and into the grass. This picture, like hundreds of others, would find its way into a photo album that would be loved and held in the laps of family and friends for years to come.

We work best with people who embrace adventure and are excited by the non-traditional. Who aren’t afraid of a little dirt on their shoes (and definitely not their dress). We will come to your wedding well-rested and dressed professionally. We will carry your bouquet/clutch/shoes, fix your hair, throw our bodies in a riverbed to help you cross it, flex our creative muscles, woo your Uncle Dave and at some point during the day - we will make a fart joke. Our job is no joke, but jokes are our job. Feel us?
