CLIFF TODD CENTER WEDDING | SARAH AND CHRIS

June 5, 2021

The sweetest, simplest, no-fuss June wedding on WKU’s campus in Bowling Green. Sarah (who often assists our *favorite* rockstar wedding coordinator Angela) got to be on the other side of a wedding day as the bride! After getting to work so many beautiful wedding days together as vendors, were so honored that she asked us to capture her day. And of course, Angela not only planned the most relaxed, effortless event, but she also officiated the ceremony and put together the florals with Sarah (with flowers picked from the gardens of friends & family around Bowling Green). Sarah’s daughter was her maid-of-honor, and her son was Chris’s best man. With just family and the closest of friends, this day was so perfect for Sarah & Chris and we loved documenting every minute of it.

about us

we're shelley AND portugal

Before we were wedding photographers, we were just two kids in love. We met on Instagram and fell in love over FaceTime. A shared interest in roadkill portraiture is what brought us together (it’s a funny story), but what ultimately compelled us to take a chance on long-distance is the fact that we weren’t looking for surface-level. We craved a shared life full of connection, vulnerability, and the kind of love that changes you. Now we bring that same energy to your wedding day to capture the real story, not a performance.
