Hey, we are Brittni & Jean!
Hi! I 'm Brittni a business coach and marketing strategist for entrepreneurs. If there's one thing I love to do is to help entrepreneurs grow and scale.

Hello! My name is Jean and I am a local and destination photographer. I'm a girl who loves taking photos of people's connections and interactions. I've been photographing couples, families, and seniors for thirteen years and somehow I still can't believe I get to hang out with so many awesome people and document their love and most important life events for my career. Your photos should tell the story of who you are at this exact time in your life. I'm excited to create some love magic for you!
