With an emphasis on storytelling, we’ll create imagery that captures the essence of your wedding day. We believe that even the smallest moments are significant, and contribute to the intimacy and joy of your celebration. So you do your thing, and don’t mind us as we document the tearful smiles, stolen kisses, and each loving embrace. You’ll feel the feelings in every photo - promise.
We take a documentary-style approach to your day
“Merri & Bash did an incredible job shooting our wedding and engagement photos.”
“Merri & Bash team are just so fun and easy to be around, the photos are stunning, and their editing style made the photos even better! They captured so many great authentic moments throughout the day, and even the family formal pictures (which I honestly expected to be a box checked) look so fantastic. I am so, so glad we prioritized working with them! One of the best wedding decisions we made.”
Emotional, dynamic imagery to capture your day
Real couples
To get the party started, we’ll hop on a phone call so we can learn more about your love story and get an idea of where you are in the planning process. We want to hear all about the most important aspects of your day and get on the same page! Once your contract is signed, your date is saved and we get to work. Our team will send over a questionnaire for you to complete along with our best vendor suggestions, and we go from there!
If your chosen collection includes engagement photos, we’ll meet for this session ahead of your wedding. It’s the perfect opportunity to meet, laugh, and get comfortable in front of the camera. Then, we’ll meet again for coffee 1-2 weeks before your wedding to review our game plan and ensure that we have all of the must-know information to make your day a crazy-big success.
Your wedding arrives and it’s the best day you could’ve imagined. Focus on soaking up every epic moment with your brand new spouse, while we focus on capturing every emotion-filled memory. We’ll preserve your first day married through documentary-style imagery, surrounded by the people you love most, and high on love.
Bask in the afterglow of your wedding while we’re hard at work curating and editing your final gallery. You’ll receive sneak peeks to tide you over within 72 hours of your event, with your final collection of images arriving later. Feel free to obsess over every image and share them to your heart’s content.

FAQs
Yes! I travel all over the world to photograph weddings. If it feels like we are a good fit then I’ll sail across the ocean to document your day if I have to!
Yes, I love to refer vendors that I adore and who also align with the same value system as mine. If they are on my vendor referral list then that means I’ve worked with them and we work well together. That’s super important considering your day needs to run smoothly and cohesively.
If it’s local then I go scout the area beforehand. If it isn’t local then I do my best to go the day or 2 before your wedding to get a lay of the land. I’m set to respond to any lighting situation and have years of experience. Whether the space is new to me or not, I always find a way to use dynamic lighting and use my creativity to drive the images.
Galleries are delivered in a range of 6-8 weeks depending on the length of the day and activities involved. I always send a sneak peek within 72 hours so that you can relive the most memorable parts of your day.
I do! While being in the moment and capturing candid moments creatively are what drives my work, I also know how to set up a beautiful scene. Posed photos aren’t what I rely on but if the moment or time calls for it then we can make it happen!
