We are Marissa and lauren
the M and the L behind ML Photo and Film.
We’re the sister duo behind your wedding imagery, here to make sure you remember your wedding through photos & film that show your adventurous, beautiful love story. Read on to learn more about where it all began...
Our mom and dad were college sweethearts who wrote love letters, backpacked across the country, laughed often, and loved deeply. Thanks to them, we saw how fun and joyful life can be when you marry your best friend! When our dad passed away from ALS, we were devastated but so thankful for all of our home videos and family photos to relive all those sweet moments we had with him. We realized what a treasure it is to have the big moments, small moments, and all the in-between moments captured.
It’s because of them that we strive to live each day with love & joy. And now, we serve couples like you so your heartfelt moments are yours to keep long after your wedding day is over. We get to know you so we’re not just strangers with cameras, we’re friends capturing your best day. We’re so grateful to serve sweet couples marrying their best friend and starting their adventure together just like our parents did many moons ago.
above all, We want to provide each of our couples with a unique and customized experience on their wedding day. We want to be more than just your photographer and videographer, we want to be your confidant, cheerleader, and friend (psst - or sister!)
