    HANDS DOWN BEST PHOTOGRAPHER/VIDEOGRAPHER DUO!!!
    Sheila and Charlie can do it all- from insane photography/videography skills, to genuinely amazing people, and willing to trek to the highest mountain if it means capturing their clients dream elopement. I walked away with amazing friendships, a breathtaking gallery of photos, and memories that i will cherish forever. I am still in awe of how they were able to capture the natural landscapes debatably better than it looked in person. The whole experience was easy and i felt extremely comfortable. I was given so many awesome direction and poses while having a great time. Couldn't be happier with the results and the overall experience. As someone who strives for perfection, it doesn't get better than Fearless & Brave Photography. So happy to have met a couple that does what they love and have a real talent for it too!!

    OH. MY. GOSH. Where do we even start. We could not have asked for a more amazing photography and videography team for our elopement. Sheila and Charlie were SO great. We had calls to plan our trip leading up to the big day, and they answered all of our questions and even provided suggestions for us. They were down for anything we wanted to do, including a 2am wake up call to drive 2 hours, offroad in the dark, hike an hour in the middle of nowhere, and be ready to capture our vows at sunrise in Colorado. Then we crossed over into Utah to go to Arches, where we did another hike. Even though Arches was super windy, they were still able to capture the most beautiful pics and videos. To top it off, we jumped off a 400ft cliff in Moab. They were truly able to capture our adventurous moments in a way that is so captivating and beautiful. They made us feel confident, and it wasn’t awkward at all. The pictures are absolutely fantastic, and the video brought everyone to tears at our elopement party. We became friends in the 2 days we spent together and we hope to see them again soon! We would give more than 5 stars if we could. 10/10 recommend! <3

    My wife and I went into this process looking to find a photographer/videographer, and ended up finding very skilled professionals and a couple we can now call friends. I want to highlight several factors as to why you should select them for your special day. They are organized, reliable, responsive, and knowledgeable. EXTREMELY SKILLED and talented in photography and videography. A night and day difference to other professionals I have used in the past, and I have used several other high end professionals in other states. Their equipment is top notch including (Drones, multiple lenses, night time photo accessories). Their attention to detail on direction of sun, time of day, changes in weather, and location of shoot to capture the moment was very impressive. Infinite number of creative poses and ideas. They scoped out locations ahead of time, made detailed smooth itinerary, had several great ideas throughout several meetings on activities to make our two day package amazing. They truly made the process STRESS FREE AND FUN. They have a very impressive creative touch. Lastly, I can’t speak highly enough of their character. They are truly generous, genuine, caring, hard working, and just all around good, friendly people. You cannot put a price tag on the value they bring with their vibe and energy. You will not regret hiring these two, and I highly recommend that you do!!! Our final product is beyond expectation, and our family and friends all agree!
