Carla and Will shared fun, candid moments with the car, embracing its classic look that perfectly complemented the scenic beauty of the farm. From shots by the cabin to moments by the cove, every frame captured their joy and the rustic elegance of the day.

Adding to the unique style of their wedding, Carla’s bridesmaids brought a pastel rainbow to life with each of them dressed in a different soft, pastel hue. The range of colors—from pale pinks to soft greens and lavenders—infused the day with a whimsical, colorful vibe. Against the vintage car, the bridesmaids’ dresses created a fun, visually stunning contrast that highlighted the day’s playful spirit.

What Kind of Photographer Should You Hire For Your Wedding?

Getting married is the biggest and most important day of people’s lives. They want it to be perfect, they want it to be remembered, and they want it to be captured. Capturing a couple’s big day is your photographer/videographer’s job, no pressure, right? This can be both a very exciting time and a very stressful time for people and your job as a photographer is not just to take photos it should be much more.

There are good photographers and then there are great photographers, but what makes them different from each other? There are many good photographers out there that take amazing photos and are very good at what they do, but how are they with interacting with their clients and ensuring that they are having the best time ever? I once heard someone say that when you are looking to hire any vendor for your wedding day you need to make sure you hire someone who will be a stress reliever not a stress inducer. There will be enough chaos and things going on during that day, but if your photographer has learned how to work with their clients and go above and beyond to help make them feel comfortable and stress free then they are a great photographer.

That is one very important thing that separates Move Mountains Co. from other wedding and event photography companies. We strive to make your special day as memorable as possible and as stress-free as possible. The day is all about you and what you want, it’s that simple. We are here to capture those once in a lifetime moments so they can be remembered forever. We strive for excellence in our work and absolutely love what we do. If you or someone you know is in the process of planning a wedding then Contact Us, we would love to help make your day one that you will never forget.
