Introduction: Listen, we get it. You've been double tapping, DMing, and sharing all the kajillion photos from many incredible photographers, and it's EXHAUSTING. 'Storytelling' and 'natural light' are among the hot trending hashtags for photography, especially for weddings. At FTT, we are influenced by many of the great journalistic photographers out there who spend a great deal of time documenting real life as they see it--no matter if it's a riveting photo from deep within the Serengeti or a vulnerable shot from a grieving mother in Syria. A photograph can change the world globally, heal a broken heart, and renew mundane and routine lives. We here at FTT are committed to working with clients with a story to tell. It's uncomfortable enough to have a stranger stick a camera in your face, with people watching. Our creativity thrives when our vibes align with our clients. Because when the glitz and glam of any milestone fades, you pay vendors like us to help you get through the "in sickness, and in health...in joy and in sorrow" moments for years to come. As active members of local healthcare and education systems, we understand now more than most the heavy burdens of anxiety, loss, and sickness you may carry. Plans change, and significant curve balls get thrown, leaving us needing clarification. But here's the thing--you've gotten this far. Life is ours for the taking because tomorrow is not promised. And we're gonna be right by your side to proudly capture and celebrate with you safely and respectfully--no matter your guest size.

For the Taking is an amazing photography team. My husband and I were fortunate enough to have both our engagement and wedding photographed by this professional team. Not only did Toby and Ebbie work with our vision but they also seamlessly blended in their own ideas to create beautiful timeless photographs.Toby and Ebbie fit right in with our group and were able to also capture unforgettable moments with our guests before, during and after the wedding. Even on the worlds hottest day, they never slowed down! We even ran out in the middle of dinner to capture an one of a kind sunset!For the Taking Photography was such a big part of our day and our families/guests loved you too! We could not be happier with the end result and we would happily recommend them to anyone.
