Hey, Im Jarrett and im an utterly hopeless romantic. Before photography, I had my career goals set for becoming a head chef at a restaurant in NYC. However, in 2010 I had an idea that would change my life forever. I decided to take a leap of faith, I walked into a local wedding photography studio and asked for a chance to become an intern. The position was of course unpaid, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm, and long weekend hours. I worked there everyday and every weekend honing my craft and paying my dues into an amazing art form that would become my food, dreams, and air.

I'm Melissa: Melissa means "honey bee' in Greek and I have 8 honey bees tattooed across my back. I love movies, daydreaming, leftover Chinese take out and being married. I'm addicted to learning new things and take online classes all the time. I LOVE to make mixes and I'm always updating a running playlist of songs that I'm listening to - some I love, some old favorites, and some that I want to hear again before I make a decision. I've been photographing weddings for over 10 years, I love it. Every day is different and every day is special! What more could a photographer ask for!

Soul Stories is our passion project in the truest sense, it was born out of a love for the moments words can’t quite hold — the quiet glances, the laughter between vows, the way love feels when it’s seen rather than said. By day, Sena (lead photographer) is a nurse and Shelton (lead photographer) works in cybersecurity — and as a couple, photo and video has always been the way we remember and cherish life. Documenting love, celebration, and the moments that matter most is something we've always done naturally. We simply decided to share that gift with others.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

I specialize in weddings, elopements, seniors and family sessions- but what I really love is capturing real connection. The laughs, the quiet in between moments, the way you look at each other when no one else is paying attention. When I'm not behind the camera, you can probably find me with a coffee in hand and my Blue Heeler dog nearby (He thinks he run the business, honestly) If you are looking for someone who will keep things easy, fun and natural- you are in the right place.

I truly believe that a wedding day is as magical as the first snowfall — both fleeting and beautiful in their own way. As time goes by, those precious moments start to melt away, and as the saying goes, 'a picture is worth a thousand words.' There’s something deeply rewarding about capturing the perfect moment, but the real magic happens when you see the look on someone’s face as they experience that moment for the first time. It’s as if the photo becomes a timeless treasure, something they can hold onto forever, and that feeling? It’s truly indescribable!

Yes, I'm a professional wedding photographer who has been in the business since 2012 with published work, but it's not the "pretty" pictures that matter. It's you! You're the reason I started pursuing my passion over 8 years ago. ​

What first drew me to photography was the ability to preserve connection in a way that feels both natural and lasting — like revisiting a place or memory and feeling it just as deeply as before. Over time, that perspective has shaped the way I observe a moment, not just as it appears, but as it is experienced. I’m drawn to the subtle interactions, the movement, and the details that often go unnoticed, yet hold the most meaning. Each story carries its own character, and my role is to recognize it and preserve it with care.
