Airika and Gerald are fantastic! They are a pleasure to work with and their photos are incredible! We knew we wanted an artful blend of artistic portraits and perfectly captured candids that would tell the story of the day...and that is EXACTLY what we got from Airika and Gerald. Each with their own style and approach, they are a very well balanced team.

Without ever getting in the way or feeling like they were distracting from the events, they managed to always be in the right places to capture the priceless moments of our wedding day.

The day Airika emailed me to let me know their sneak peek slideshow was ready to view was so exciting. I have to admit though, I was afraid that the anticipation might lead to a bit of a let down. I knew their work was incredible, and I was thrilled with every moment of our day, but I didn't know if the photos would live up to the memories. It turned out I had nothing to worry about...by the fourth photo I was already crying. They captured our perfect day absolutely perfectly!

We will absolutely work with Airika and Gerald again and will recommend them to friends and family without hesitation!
Thank you Airika! Thank you Gerald! You are both so skilled and so professional!

Gerald and Airika shot our wedding in April this year. Everything from our first meeting with them, through to the photography on our wedding day and beyond was met with the upmost professionalism and enthusiasm by both of them. They fully captured the story of our entire day in a fun, creative and artful manner and have given us photos that we will be able to enjoy forever. Our whole family is raving about their pictures!

Vendor recommendation from Blondie & Company formerly {capella} event design and coo...

One of the best photographers in the NW. This couple is incredibly talented and passionate about their work. They should definitely be on your short list when it comes to selecting a wedding photographer!

Vendor recommendation from Chic Celebrations

VERY gifted in what they do! Always a pleasure to work with.

Vendor recommendation from Jason Parker Quartet

I worked a wonderful wedding with Gerald Pope last summer at Canlis Restaurant and had a great time getting to know him and Airika. I found them to be professionals of the highest order, and everything you might want from a photographer - artful, unobtrusive, warm and professional. His photos of the event were magnificent, and he got some terrific shots of my band as well, which I have since used on the web and in marketing materials.

Hope to see you two again soon!
