our approach

We are storytellers. We approach our primarily documentary work with humor, grace and most importantly: honesty.

Our boutique studio specializes in lifestyle portraiture. We also take on a limited amount of wedding photography commissions each year. Looking for our wedding films? Head over to Wirken Films to find them and more information. Looking to commission us for a project of another kind (cinema, art, design, etc)? Drop us a line!

about us

Nicole holds a BFA in Photography and Painting from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago as well as years of experience as an artist & photographer. Brandon holds a film school degree and years of experience in the local video industry.

Credentials aside, we are husband, wife and parents to a dear little one. We have siblings, parents, friends that are family and family that are friends. Relationships and moments of everyday normal life; that is what life is about. The ability to capture those in an artful way and pass it down for generations; that is what inspires and motivates us.
