What if none of the collections fit our exact wedding needs?
Not a problem, collections may be tailored to fit your specific wedding needs! A la carte items can be added to any package, including additional hours.

eight hours is usually the sweet spot for capturing a full wedding day story. if your wedding day has multiple locations, we would recommend maybe nine or ten hours. we will help you with timeline creation to help your day unfold nicely!

engagement sessions are scheduled during the week about two hours before the sun sets. we set the date and location two months prior and check in the week of to see how the weather is faring. We are happy to reschedule if the forecast isn't in our favor!
how would you describe L&L's shooting style?
We love being both interactive and discreet throughout the wedding day. There will be parts of the wedding day when we need to be in control in order to accomplish everything while staying on schedule. There will also be moments when you shouldn’t even know that we are there. (The ceremony, during dances and toasts, etc.) We love capturing editorial-worthy details but also take time to be organized for family formals!
