Chee La and I are primarily natural light photographers. It will always be our first choice but, we will use flash when it's necessary. Our style is defined by bright bold colors and timeless imagery. We love photographing our couples in beautiful surroundings. On the wedding day, we often use flash to capture sunset portraits and fun photos during the receptions.
We only take a limited number of couples every year to make sure that we can provide the best experience. Our couples are more than just a number and we take pride in getting to know you. For that reason, we highly recommend that if you love our work, please contact us right away. To book, you would need to complete the online contract and pay the non-refundable retainer. We can send you all the details so you can easily and quickly hold your date!
Yes, and yes! It's so important to protect us and you. We wouldn't leave the house without it!
That's exactly what we're here for! We always say, "Don't worry about posing, just be in love!" Think of your engagement session as time for all of us to just hang out! We will spend time directing and getting you both comfortable in front of the camera. You won't even remember that we are taking photos.
For the complimentary engagement session, you can expect to receive a full gallery within 1 month of your session (often times sooner!). Your wedding gallery will be delivered within 3 months of your wedding date. For all sessions, unless otherwise stated, your photos will be delivered via a private online gallery. You will also have access to our personal online print shop. Your photos will be hosted up to 1 year on our online gallery.

our first meeting
This is a chance for us to hang out (and take awesome photos)! Chee La and I feel that the best way we can really get to know you is through your complimentary engagement session. We love hiking and we are willing to meet you anywhere that will show off your personality! I know this can bring up some anxiety being in front of the camera. No worries! We are there for you and will help guide you!
your engagement
Once of the most important things we do together is complete the photography timeline! We've discovered that it is the single best way to make sure the wedding day runs smoothly! About 1-1/2 to 1 month prior to your wedding day, I will send you a timeline questionnaire. Using that information, we will define all the important details and work on a timeline that will allow us capture everything you want on your special day!

ever after
We absolutely love working with Mai See and Chee La! My husband and I are hopeless romantics so we were extremely nervous for our engagement shoot. Mai See and Chee La had wonderful tips and cute games for each shot to help bring out the love we had for each other. They are professional, responsive, and super understanding! The photography timeline and consultation mad the whole process so much easier to visualize what we wanted to have captured on our wedding day. We felt so taken care of! Many of our friends and families loved our wedding photos too! One of our colleagues said our photos looked like it came out of a magazine. We would definitely book them again for future shoots. They are such a wonderful husband and wife duo, they remind us so much of ourselves too.
Mai See and Chee La are amazing to work with. Not only are they professional but easy going and fun. We laughed a lot and got along great with both of them. They did our engagement and wedding pictures. Both were great experiences. At our wedding, we were running late and they were very accommodating. Communication was easy. Mai see also has an eye for capturing moments. There are so many sentimental pictures I have from the wedding that brings back many memories from our perfect day that I will have forever. They are amazing!
