More than just pictures. 

Your photos should be as unique as you are, reflecting your very personal story, and allow you to relive precious moments again and again.

What Kindles The Fire In Our Golden Hearts

THE STORY BEHIND THE STORYTELLERS

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH GOLDEN HEARTS

Our number one priority is to make you feel comfortable and confident. So don't worry if you feel nervous, or think you're too awkward for great photos.

We LOVE finding ways to make you laugh and feel totally at ease throughout your entire experience. We want you to live in the moment, and focus on the person you love.

Do you want more than just traditional, posed photos? We believe in capturing images that actually tell a story—capturing movement, action, and raw emotion. 

Do you love the unique look of film photos that are gritty, yet editorial, and feel nostalgic and romantic? If so, you're in the right place! 

We focus on you documenting your authentic, candid moments with an artistic twist!

Match made in Heaven? We think so. 

ARTISTIC

Emotive

Your stories are more than just stories.

There you were, wiping a tear, busting out laughing SO HARD — you’re snorting out your drink, heaving with joy until your stomach aches.

What if you had a guarantee — that moment would NEVER be forgotten. The crease in your cheek. That spontaneous group hug — with all your FAVORITE people in one place.

 You don’t have to forget.
Time doesn’t have to erase these moments . . . 

ROMANTIC

Who you are is who we capture. Your pictures are here to remind you, to bring back the party OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

We are here to put you in the best light, the most flattering angles, and give you the most incredible pictures you've ever had.

Dive in deep & remember that you will remember this day. We’ll make sure of it.

"caroline was a joy to work with from start to finish!"

 "I loved that she took the time to set up a phone call with me before our shoot to talk through our wishes for the shoot, as well as styling tips for outfits. During the shoot, she was patient with my fussy toddlers & ended up getting some really amazing shots of everyone by making them giggle! She worked quickly and took a lot of photos in a short amount of time. She had a prize box at the end for my kids to choose something special, which they absolutely loved. We are so thankful that she captured our family so wonderfully!"
