Growing up Catholic, there’s a lot of phrases that have become second nature and I have to make a point to stop and reflect to enjoy their meaning.

Right after the couple states their vows, the priest prays for God’s blessing and says “What therefore God joins together, let no one put asunder”.

When you stop and think about the meaning and power behind that phrase, it elevates the magnitude of the sacrament. It’s not just repeating words, it’s entering into a lifelong covenant.

To the couple it’s a reminder to honor their commitment through all seasons of life, not just the easy ones.

To everyone else it’s a reminder to respect the couple’s marriage so long as they do.

That’s why to get married in the church, 6 months of marriage prep is required. On average, couples spend a year planning their wedding from an event and logistical standpoint (which is important too, don’t get me wrong) so doesn’t it make sense to have to spend at least half of that preparing for the marriage you’re entering into compared to the one day event?

Yes you’ve been “prepping” your whole relationship, but the beauty of formal prep is that instead of bringing something up randomly after work that might spark a miscommunication, you are in a setting that was created for you to talk about a wide variety of issues you may or may not have considered and see where you align on the front end.

Sure most of it you’ve probably already talked about, but even little ways you disagree could compound over time and this is a way to get it out in the open early.

You can’t “prep” for every single thing that’ll happen, but you can try and agree on how you’ll approach those hardships when they arise.

No matter your denomination or if you’re religious at all, marriage prep is a great way to enter into the covenant of marriage as armored as you can be to face the expected and mostly unexpected obstacles that life will bring!

A lot of times corporate and commercial work is pretty straight forward, you have a brief and you get the photos and videos needed to fit that brief to sell those products or services.

What a delightful surprise it has been that the photo and video work that Commonwealth Senior Living hires our business for has served a greater purpose. Yes, it is still promotional work. The difference is that they are going above and beyond to rewrite the Senior Living narrative and take so seriously the weight of caring for a family's loved one beyond just a sales approach. Filming interviews of residents, associates, and family members who are crying talking about how CSL has changed their life carries an important responsibility to to create a video that respectfully tells their story.

Our work has always been about telling stories, and this past year has brought some amazing ones!

The answer to where’s the “perfect” place to have your photos taken is easier than you think!✨

Robert and Natalie go every December to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens Christmas Lights, so Robert knew that’s where he’d want photos taken after they got engaged.

Yes it’s a beautiful location, but most importantly it’s a place they both are comfortable and has sentimental meaning so it doubled as a special date that happened to be photographed!

When you’re comfortable you let your guard down to soak in the moment together, so wherever you can do that is the “perfect” place to take photos!

Two of Juliette’s nieces and nephews ran into the bridal suite as she put her shoes on to give both her and grandma a hug and their excitement was palpable. They weren’t posing for the camera, they just wanted to tell Auntie and grandma how beautiful they looked.

As your family ages, these are the moments you’ll want to remember. Your nephew saying he wants his hair done too, one of your nieces holding all of the other bridesmaids fur shawls while your other niece uses all of her patience to not open the big bag of chips early, dancing with grandpa at the reception, and changing into a velvet tracksuit that matches the wedding colors.

The perfectly imperfect, our absolute favorite.

Are you having your wedding in a Historic Downtown like Staunton but still want some nature inspired portraits? Greg and Kristin wanted a mix of both for their Hotel 24 South Wedding so we found foliage in the most unlikely of places! With the right angles and lens we turned a small walkway in the middle of a parking lot into a Fall scene and then made an Ivy wall along the road next to a car shop into a greenery backdrop.

An example of how with the right knowledge and skillset a photographer can take scenery that’s uninteresting to the eye and turn it into captivating imagery!

In honor of October marking 7 years in business, here are 7 things to know about working with us!

1. Our faith is the foundation of our lives, marriage, and how we run our business. Our motto is “God writes the story; we just document it” because we believe that all of the occasions we capture are blessings from Him. We have a lot of experience with Catholic and Christian weddings!

2. We are Maria and Dayton: a husband and wife photo and video duo that offer both of us photographing, both of us filming, or one of us doing each. Maria can help guide you on which role(s) we can best serve you in. A perk of hiring us for both (in addition to a discount) is that we work together seamlessly the day of and it gives your photos and video a cohesive look.

3. Our business approach is relational not transactional. It doesn’t matter who you buy a scrunchie from, but it does matter who you trust to act respectfully on the day you become two in one spirit surrounded by the people you love most. Maria runs the business full-time and loves building relationships with clients so that she feels like a trusted friend.

4. Our wedding day approach is to give direction when needed and help set the scene, but once a genuine interaction begins we capture it in its purest form. No “recreating” or faking. The most emotional moments we have captured was when we were silent.

5. Our editing style is vibrant and true to color. We want your photos and video to look the way your wedding day did with a little extra pop to make the scenery feel as 3D as possible.

6. Marriage is a sacrament, not a production. We know the balance of filming moments with multiple camera angles while still being discreet. It is possible for moments to be well documented AND for us to be unobtrusive.

7. We love to travel and to photograph the incredible scenery God has created! Whether you want your love documented at a National Park (we have been to 20) or an international adventure, we are there!

Thank you to every member of our Fenix Family who chose us to capture a special season in their life: grad, engagement, wedding, maternity, newborn, family or all of the above! We are so excited for Year 8!
