Capturing the connection between loved ones


Outdoor weddings is an absolute joy. The natural beauty of the surroundings creates a breathtaking backdrop for the wedding ceremony, making the couple's special day even more memorable. With the sun shining, flowers blooming, and the sound of nature in the background, outdoor weddings provide a serene and intimate atmosphere. The ability to incorporate nature into the couple's photos adds a unique touch and captures the essence of their love story. Whether it's surrounded by rolling hills, a serene lake, or a sprawling desert scene, the breathtaking beauty of the outdoors truly enhances the beauty of the day.

Testimonials

Communication was key during the planning and execution phases of our wedding. My wife and I were in different locations during planning and our schedules were always changing because of our jobs. Resulting in us relying heavily on zoom calls and e-mails, Clay made every single accommodation to make sure that we were both included and on the same page. He and his wife traveled for our wedding and made sure to take part in the rehearsal (which was the day before) to have an idea of the venue layout.

Testimonials

I would Hire him again no question at all! My husband hired Clay for a surprise photo shoot during an anniversary trip and he did not disappoint. He was very professional and friendly and his wife who assisted him was the sweetest! Unfortunately it rained during our shoot but you would have never known by the quality of the pictures that the weather was less than ideal as the pictures were still so clear and the lighting perfect. He really has a gift and special eye for this!
