Welcome to WEDTIME STORIES
Newton might've had his apple moment, but when we crossed paths, it was more than just luck. Both of us were deep into our careers in fashion photography, lifestyle, and portraiture, but we were really pulled by that human connection. Capturing it all in one meaningful shot was what hooked us. And if there’s one thing that captures the essence of people at their best, it’s gotta be documenting weddings!

Jordan and George were practically neighbors, living three blocks apart and going to the same school, but their paths never crossed until a mutual friend dragged George to one of Jordan's photo shoots. They both think the best friendships kick off with a random twist of fate, kinda like finding that forever love.
FUN FACTS:
George isn't just Jordan’s brand partner; he was also the best man at his wedding. He’s got a pupper he's always teaching new tricks and four felines ruling his home. He’s a foodie with a knack for tunes, and as his dad loves to say, he’s been into photography since he was 3.
Oh, and he still drops "lol" in his texts.
Jordan’s all about family – and that includes his trio, well, if you count in the two felines he spoils rotten. When he’s not jet-setting off to a destination wedding or hopping on his favorite trains, you’ll find him playing guitar, rocking out at concerts, shredding the slopes, or getting lost in old flicks.
