About

As wedding photographers, Annie & David are all about capturing your day beautifully: documenting everything from getting ready through the final send-off, and creating memorable portraits for your wall along the way. But what this husband-and-wife team love most are all the little moments in between. The moment your father’s eyes well up as he watches you say, “I do”, the hug after your best man’s heartwarming toast. For Annie & David, weddings are all about moments and feelings, and creating photographs that you’ll cherish and smile back upon for a lifetime.

Look no further!

We had a truly flawless experience working with Annie and David for our wedding photos. Our initial meeting had the casual nature of a conversation so that we could get to know each other while also being thorough in terms of the overview, expectations, and options they shared with us. They went above and beyond to get to know us, including asking for our engagement photos as well as photos we loved so they could gain an accurate sense of what we wanted our wedding photos to look like. As we approached our wedding date, they asked us about lots of day-of details that we hadn’t even thought about so we left well-prepared heading into our big day. And on the wedding day itself, Annie and David were magical: they were invisible at the times when we wanted to be immersed in our special day and yet they were impeccably ushering people about, giving us timely reminders, and, of course, capturing every memorable moment. And if all of this hadn’t already justified the cost to work with them, once we received more than 500 edited photos, we knew without a doubt that we had made the best choice in picking A Tale Ahead. Our pictures are perfect! Thanks to Annie & David, we can relive our perfect day over and over again every time we see our pictures on the wall, on our phones, or in our albums. We couldn’t be more thankful for all their hard work.

We love working with A Tale Ahead photography!

Annie and David were an absolute delight to work with. From our very first meeting with them all the way to even now as we are selecting photos for our wedding album, Annie has been incredibly responsive to our (many) questions and inquiries. It is a quality that we truly appreciate from a vendor as it definitely made our wedding planning process less stressful. We also had a blast with Annie and David on our wedding day, as they just felt like friends that we were hanging out with the entire day. It goes without saying that their work is phenomenal; one thing that we really liked about Annie and David's work is that they are great at working with lighting, and our guests also commented on how beautiful the lighting turned out in all the photos! We also love how they captured so many candid, happy moments not just of us but also of our guests. We'd highly recommend working with Annie and David as your wedding photographers!

The Best Decision We Made!

Hiring Annie and David as our wedding photographers was easily one of the greatest decisions we ever made. Aside from being incredibly talented, they are two of the most kind and generous people we've ever met.

We had to postpone our 2020 wedding date and they were so understanding and made the process incredibly easy during a very stressful time. Leading up to the wedding, they put up with an incessant amount of annoying questions from me as I struggled to walk through the logistics and timeline of our wedding. Then, a week before our wedding, when the weather forecast turned quite unfavorable, Annie and David were right there to brainstorm ideas with us and reassure us that even with a little rain (or a lot of it), our day (and our photos) would turn out amazing. And they were right.

They were extraordinarily responsive and helpful (I seriously don't know how they do it!). On the day of our wedding, they went above and beyond and transcended their roles of photographers. I'm so grateful for Annie - she was right by my side, keeping me and my dress dry, helping me navigate where to go and what to do. Both Annie and David braved the elements for us, standing outside in the pouring rain and wind for hours. At one point, we're pretty sure David backed all the way into a bush just to get the perfect angle during our first look.

I could go on and on about how amazing they are and all the ways in which they made our wedding day more special. My husband and I both agree that we are so lucky to have had Annie and David as our photographers and we cannot get over how amazing the photographs came out to be.
