We Believe

Marriage is a vow that says I'll never give up. Marrying your BFF can lead to a life full of joy + endless fun. 

Our Brides + Grooms reflect this value and it makes us so happy to serve these couples! This is something we've believed since our high school dating days! 


Marriage is a vow that says I'll never give up. We believe that marrying your BFF can lead to a life full of joy + endless fun. 

2007

Best friends turned highschool sweethearts (after Petie boldly escaped the friendzone!) We dated for 6 years and were married right after graduating from Virginia Tech!

2012

After asking for my parent's permission, Sam proposed my Senior year on the Pylons at Virginia Tech during class change - all of our friends were hiding and jumped out right after!

2013

The BEST DAY of our lives! Wrote our own vows, hung out with ~220 of our favorite people under string lights, had amazing vendors, and even surprised our guests with an Ice Cream truck.

2015

Although we never planned on being pro photographers, a friend who knew we had a "nice" camera asked us to shoot her Wedding!! We LOVED every second of that Wedding Day and realized we finally stumbled upon our calling!

2017

Countless corporate side hustles sustained us until we made the jump to going Full Time with our business in 2017. 

2024

"I could never work with my spouse!" Is said to us A LOT! If we weren't doing photography, we'd probably open an ice cream shop...together haha!

Let's move to richmond!

going full time with PHotography

Still love working together

Our Story

Tucker Values

Group 3@2x Created with Sketch.

Family will always be a priority

Our logo is the Coat of Arms for the Tucker family. 

Jesus is the light in our lives + our marriage

Fix it > pay for a new one

Pets are considered family

"Scout" is our high energy Brittany spaniel + "Cotton" is our fluffiest boss 

Community over Competition

if we can't be your lucky photographers, we'll send you in the right direction of trusted friends.

Marrying your BFF is a great idea.
