Finding each other much later in life than we would have desired requires us to cherish every single day. We celebrate love, life, family, and marriage in our own home as well as in your journey from bridal show to "i do" to final delivery of your images, albums, and wall art.
We wish for you what we could not locate ourselves - a dedicated, emotionally involved creative artist who will be there every step of the way, documenting for all time your most important day.
This has been, and always shall be, a family business for us - our family, taking care of your family just as we would our own.
True Love in Motion...

Finding, interviewing, and selecting your ideal Wedding Photographer comes down to three simple things: Shooting Style, Personality, and Cost.
We not only capture your day in vibrant images, but work to be observant of the happenings so that we can actively contribute. From keeping a bride calm as we locate her pendant, to fixing a grooms shirt button inserts, it is all in a day's work for us... we wouldn't want it any other way!

"Marjorie and Nick at Sophia's Art were a pleasure to work with!
My husband is very shy and when we first met Marjorie and Nick, he knew instantly that he wanted them to photograph our wedding because of how comfortable they made us feel! You will know upon the first visit just how talented this duo is. They are a great team and truly capture the greatest moments and memories of what is sure to be the best day of your life."

"Even after a month of honeymoon traveling and post wedding celebrating, the only things people can talk about are the lifelong memories captured by this dynamic duo! I'm still baffled at how they got these candid action shots when they essentially blended right into the party, for myself to get these angles and scenes I would have had to be right up in the face of the subject - the seal team six of photography ;) luv you both and thanks for being apart of our lives forever!"

When my husband and I attended our first bridal show together we were amazed by the number of vendors that showed up. We immediately knew that choosing the right photographers for our wedding was not going to be easy. We decided to work our way from booth to booth to see if we could narrow down our options and after meeting with a dozen or more photographers we realized we couldn’t pick out one from the next. That was the case until we met Nick and Marjorie. My husband (being an amateur photographer) was immediately grabbed by their style of

photography, which he said was “timeless and beautiful and stood out from the rest”. After having our meet and greet with them my husband and I knew we had found the perfect photographers for us. They clearly had a knack for photography and personalities to match. Fast forwarding to our engagement session proved that we definitely made the right decision. My “soon-to-be husband” and I were beyond nervous and both Nick and Marjorie knew it. Thankfully, this is where Nick and Marjorie shined the most. Their personalities and occasional jokes broke the tension, calmed us down

and made us feel comfortable which made a huge difference in our pictures. This held true to our wedding day. When Marjorie saw that I had the pre-wedding jitters, she took me aside to clear my mind and was also able to capture beautiful bridal shots. I was relaxed and laughing in no time. My husband and I are in love with our photos and our wedding album. As you can see from my testimony, I would highly & proudly recommend Nick and Marjorie for anyone looking for a classic & timeless set of photos, regardless of the occasion."

Part I: Want to test out your Photographer is BEFORE the Wedding Day??
Here are some great reasons to choose an Engagement Experience:
1. You get to get a feel for how your photographer communicates with you and directs you without the pressure of it being your wedding day!
2. You get to "learn the lingo" of a professional photographer as to how they will direct you and your fiance.
3. You get to learn how to point your toe and bend your elbow to create natural shapes and accentuate your dress and hair. By the time your wedding day arrives, it will come to you naturally!

Part III: Shouldn't your Photographer finish the job?
We recommend you let your photographer know that you expect these minimum results:
1. All Images you receive are adjusted for color correction, white balance, straightening, and are PRINT READY.
2. All finished physical deliverable items are warrantied from the source, and you know the source of those items.
3. All final image galleries contain the best of the images captured, and not thousands of unusable shots which just take up space on my hard drive.
4. Be available for us in the future for our family photography needs
