We warmed up with some candids at a local bistro near and dear to the couple’s hearts.

We couldn’t pass up a game of Jenga.

Jess won.

Zach and Jess took one of their first pictures as a couple in front of this sign.


We might have removed the reservation sign to get this shot. But we put it back.

Doubling as a vinyl store, this location was such a vibe.

We then took to the streets to find this gorgeous gold and green color palette.


The lights. The haze. The pose.


Emily spotted an alley with beautiful backlighting, and we took advantage.

You can’t fake stuff like this.

This ring has a special story going back to a 4-year-old Zach. 20 years later, it’s found its home.

Gothic vibes?

You can tell so much about how Zach and Jess complement each other from just this one frame.


I still don’t know how they felt about me telling them to lay on the tracks. But I think it was worth it.




These were definitely our fairy lights.

We don’t know if Zach knows this, but he definitely has a thing for giving Jess’ nose the boops. He knows now.

Ending with cozy, couch energy.
