SERVING VANCOUVER, SOUTHWEST WASHINGTON, PORTLAND OREGON & BEYOND
Hi, we are Bethany & Aaron!
We are a husband and wife photography/videography team! We got married in 2018 and live in Vancouver, Washington with our little snuggle dog name Weston. We both grew up in the state of Washington and absolutely love living in the PNW. Being able to step outside and almost immediately be able to be amongst beautiful nature, trees, rivers and mountains is one of our favorite things! Plus being within in a couple hours of the ocean & snow is a huge perk. It gives us endless opportunities to be creative in the outdoors and we are constantly finding places when we explore that we can’t wait to bring our clients to shoot a session at.
We both love to travel and go on adventures! Whether that’s taking a road trip to some of the national parks, going for a drive down the Columbia Gorge, camping in Hawaii or kayaking in Thailand, we love exploring! We are also constantly working on projects around our house and yard or dreaming of what other cool things we can do on our 1/2 acre property.
We both are incredibly passionate about photography and being creative. One of the great things about working together is that we can bounce new ideas off of each other and we each bring our own unique perspective and way of capturing things. It is so much fun for us getting to connect and hangout with our clients all while making some beautiful and memorable images.
AARON
Hey! Mine name is Aaron!
Growing up my mom always encouraged me and my siblings to be creative and explore whatever we could put our minds to. So from an early age I thrived in many different creative outlets. One of those outlets was photography. Ever since picking up a camera, I haven’t put it down. I shot my very first wedding at the age of 15 and I know that it will be a passion of mine as long as I live. I especially love playing with light and seeing what I can create with the camera in a multitude of different lighting scenarios. There is never an end to what can be created and I love that about photography.
Some of my other passions include drumming, woodworking, archery and knife collecting. I was in a band for several years with a couple of my brothers and we toured the states together playing music, and today I still drum regularly with my church. I have a background in home renovations and van conversion builds so I love any opportunity I get to work on creative projects around my house and in my shop. Whether that’s building a cool shelf for my wife, a custom made desk for a friend, a new archery range in our backyard, or renovating our house. I love meeting new people and sharing my passions with them.
BETHANY
Hey! My name is Bethany and I could try and describe myself but I’d rather just share some of the things I love with you in no specific order:
Being comfy! Leggings and cozy sweaters and allllll the pillows on my bed and soft fuzzy blankets….
Plants & Gardening. I would live in a jungle house of plants if Aaron let me! My goal is to have a thriving outdoor veggie and fruit garden in our yard. There’s something just so cool about eating a veggie that you grew from a tiny seed that you stuck the dirt.
Animals. Especially our little dog Weston. We have a snuggle routine every morning and it’s one of my favorite things to start my day!
Games. Just general fun games to play with friends. Like a good game of spoons, scattegories, catan or jackbox.tv. Or a silly game like picking up marshamllows with a straw as quickly as you can. That kind of stuff.
Cold Plunges. Okay, just hear me out: yes it is freaking cold and miserable at first but THEN all of a sudden it’s not so bad and I just feel ALIVE and AWAKE and ALERT and I feel SO mentally strong and brave and tingly with endorphins. You should try it!
Food. This is a tricky one because I am sadly gluten and dairy intolerant. Two of the very best food groups and I can’t eat them! So I get especially excited when I can eat a delicious meal or treat that hits all my tastebuds. It’s just the best
Photography. I think I got my first point-and-shoot in middle school and I was that kid constantly going around snapping selfies and random pictures. I never even thought about professional photography until Aaron and I met and he showed me the ropes of using a camera in manual mode. Joining him on shoots was so much fun and I quickly decided that I could do this too! I love that we get to both do it together as a team.
