REAL > POSED


Like an Elevated, High Stakes Game of I-Spy...



Where every blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment is documented with intention & feeling.

True documentary-style photography is not about posing, it’s about perception; we move like visual detectives, noticing what others don’t as your memories unfold, and preserving it all in imagery that feel like time capsules, made just for you. Elevated, immersive, and rooted in real moments, with an editorial eye - so even in your most lived-in, genuine memories, your captures are still looking gallery-ready!!


This is immersive event storytelling, with a high touch and organic feel, that’s anything but surface-level.

Kayla & Zoey are AMAZING! I fell in love with their work on Instagram and I’m super thankful to have them as our videographers. They were extremely communicative and answered any questions we had. Throughout the wedding day, they were extremely detailed and organized making sure they got every single moment. Super thankful for both of you.

Using a blend of digital photography, 35mm + 120 film, Polaroids, and super 8/16mm, we focus on capturing the moments that matter most: the softness, the laughter, the small in-between scenes that are easy to miss but impossible to forget.


This offering is perfect for half day wedding coverage and/or couples with guest lists of 80 or less seeking 4 hours of coverage or less, prioritizing connection over production. Available by request within 2 months of your celebration when seasonal scheduling allows.

Events & Gatherings

ALWAYS CUSTOM DESIGNED UNIQUELY FOR YOU

Photo coverage for welcome parties, rehearsal dinners, farewell brunches, Bach parties & more.


Our multimedia process brings gatherings and celebrations to life through a mix of crisp digital, nostalgic film, tangible Polaroids, and analog motion Super 8mm film — creating a collection that feels vibrant, stylish, and deeply personal. Whether it’s cocktails under string lights or speeches shared over dinner, we’re there to document the energy and emotion as it naturally unfolds.

Date Night

ALWAYS CUSTOM DESIGNED UNIQUELY FOR YOU

 

Candid Engagement + Couple’s Sessions - Laid-back, chic, and all about you two. Our sessions are centered around a place or activity that means something real to your love story — whether it’s your favorite coffee spot, the farmer's market, a fave North Loop bar, or the quiet comfort of home.


We are  third wheels in the best way; fly-on-the-wall observers who knows how to keep it comfy, fun, and effortlessly you. Nothing stiff, nothing forced. Just honest and lived-in memories, artfully captured, made to last.


Perfect for getting cozy with our cameras before the big day, or celebrating a milestone, anniversary, or just-because kind of love.


Planning a proposal? We’ll be there in stealth mode! Plus every proposal session includes a portrait shoot immediately afterward to soak in all the just-engaged magic.

 

 

Keepsakes Made To Last

Alongside your digital gallery, all couples receive timeless, tactile keepsakes: a curated selection of original Polaroids and archival film negatives for safekeeping. Wedding commissions also include a nostalgic bonus — a custom retro viewfinder, complete with a reel of our favorite images from your celebration.

 

“If you’re debating between documentary-style photography and a more traditional approach, go with documentary and more importantly, hire Kayla and Zoey. They are true artists with an incredible eye for detail. They photographed both our engagement and wedding, and their creative vision blew us away.


From our first meeting for the engagement shoot, Kayla & Zoey made us feel completely at ease. By the time our wedding day came around, it felt like we had invited two friends to capture our day. Kayla & Zoey brought so much energy and were fully present to capture every detail, big and small. Our only initial hesitation was that they don’t use shot lists. But in all honesty, you don’t need one when your photographers have such a strong instinct for capturing genuine moments and meaningful connections. We still got our family photos since we had some adamant family members, but the photos we’ll cherish forever were the candid ones: the laughter, the tears, and all the little in-between moments that made our day special. If their stunning work on their website and Instagram hasn’t convinced you yet, their delivery SPEED will.


We didn’t even get over our wedding high yet and they delivered the entire day’s worth of memories for us to re-live it all and feel that rush again! We could go on and on about how amazing they are. Kayla & Zoey, we hope you continue to have a passion for what you do because you guys truly have a gift. If you're lucky enough to work with Storyteller Co, you’ll understand exactly what we mean.
