I'm Olivia Wenzel

Editorial photographer & educator documenting well-designed experiences.

Inspired by your admiration for one another. Mindful of cultural traditions — from around the world, and your family. Often walking 8+ miles to sightsee and find the best “vegan food near me” that a search can offer. 

Vegan, dog person, minimalist. Every day includes a pack walk with my partner and our three dogs. I spent most of my childhood in South Korea and eventually moved to Michigan where I received my bachelor’s degree in psychology and began my photography career. My team and I travel often between the Carolinas and Michigan — appreciative of Carolina’s more subtle winters and Michigan’s lake scenery. You can also catch me on the tennis court — I grew up playing violin and piano, but always wanted to learn tennis.

An Art of 
Sustainability

We build legacies and yet, leave no trace. Within our work, you’ll find that every decision is made with a conscious intention to be kind to animals and to our planet.

You’ll notice a few subtle differences as we work together. From nylon camera straps to custom album covers made out of vegan suede leather, in addition to declining events in which animals are used for entertainment (with the exception of dogs who are quite evidently well taken care of when invited into your wedding party).

To put it simply, we serve you well while walking an eco-friendly path.
