10 Questions with Adam and Keli Spanier

1. Introduction: What's your story?

Our photography has always been about celebrating people – celebrating events in life – and capturing ways to feel and remember those little moments long after you have forgotten them. We are Adam and Keli Spanier – proud parents who are head over heels in love with life and each other. We have been documenting engagements and weddings for over seven years and never tire from seeing two people that are totally right for every other taking this new step in their lives. Marriage is awesome!

Your interest in our work truly means the world to us! Marriage is one among the foremost important milestones in your life. We are hooked in to the happiness that marriage brings and we’re drawn to couples entering this excellent adventure. We are very fortunate to have our clients in our lives. We cherish the personal connections we’ll make with you and your families. We know our photos are going to be cherished for generations to come, and we take that very seriously.

From our first meeting on, we want to build a relationship with our clients on trust and having the confidence that we will capture the memories that matter to them. We get to meet the most amazing clients and get to have a front row seat for one of the happiest days of their lives. We still get goosebumps when the bride sees herself in the mirror for the first time. We can’t help but smile and tear up as a dad turns to see his not-so-little girl all grown up, ready to start her new life. It is pretty remarkable to be the first ones to relive your wedding day as we create your gallery of authentic, classic, and colorful photographs that we hope will preserve your wedding day and that will be cherished for a lifetime. We pour our hearts into our work and we cannot wait to start celebrating those moments with you!
