We’ve seen it all—and we mean all of it.
From holding up a wedding dress while a bride uses the bathroom, to hiding in bushes for the perfect aisle shot, to trusting a six-year-old with thousands of dollars of camera gear (and saying a quick prayer while we do it)—we’re in it for every real, unfiltered moment.
We laugh with you, cry with you, and oftentimes juggle a snack or two in between. Because behind every photo is a story—and we’re there for all the beautifully chaotic, wildly human parts of it.
You’re the type of person who shows up as your full self—big laughs, big hugs, maybe a little messy in the best way, and absolutely zero interest in pretending to be anyone else.
You’ve probably got a camera roll that’s 90% “wait this is so cute I have to remember this” and a brain that’s constantly filing away tiny moments to obsess over later.
You love a good vibe. You care about the details. You definitely have opinions about playlists, lighting, and where the cake should go. But more than anything, you want the whole thing to feel like you’re actually in it, not just posing around it.
Even if you have t-rex arms and hate the camera, we are there to bring out the best in ya and show you how amazeballs you can look on camera.
We’re there hyping you up, fixing flyaways like it’s an Olympic sport, and capturing the moments you didn’t even realize were happening while you were too busy living them.
We’ll give you direction when you need it, and then immediately abandon it the second you start doing something better on your own (which you will). We’re not here to stiffen the moment—we’re here to ride the energy with you.
Think less “say cheese,” more “this is going to be iconic and also slightly unhinged in the best way.”
Because the goal is simple: photos that feel like your actual life… just with better lighting and someone making sure you look insanely good the whole time.
Their style of photography felt so authentic to me and I love the storytelling + dynamic colors that come with their images. Everyone I have shown my wedding photos to has gasped over the quality and how well captured the day was. On top of how fantastic they are at photography, they're also great people to hang out with and kept our wedding day feeling fun.
"I flew Steph + Erin halfway across the country to shoot my wedding photos and would absolutely do it again with zero hesitation."

She made my spouse and I feel right at ease and went along with any and all ideas we had for photos. Our family and friends also all gushed about her throughout the night, she was so personable and creative. On top of it all, the pictures turned out flawlessly. She was able to capture both the romance of the day as well as the fun of the reception. We could not have asked for a better, more professional photographer.

They brought the most incredible energy to our wedding day, and allowed us to feel so comfortable throughout all of our photos. Every picture we asked for was taken, and memories were captured from all angles. PHILTER is able to capture your wedding in a way that makes it look like a dream come true!
"I could not recommend PHILTER Photography enough. Stephanie understood our vision better than we did."

We had so much fun with Erin during our engagement shoot and she not only delivered amazing wedding day photos but helped the day run smoothly overall. Many of my bridesmaids commented on how kind and calm Erin was throughout the day. We were absolutely blown away by our preview pictures and can't wait to see the full gallery. She perfectly captured the love and joy that filled the room while carefully capturing the small details. We can't recommend Philter enough!
"Erin and Stephanie are fabulous human beings and incredible photographers! "
