We are Cleveland, TN, natives and high school sweethearts who have found a personal passion for telling stories, helping others, and more than anything - creating art together.
Our love for photography and cinematography started at a young age - in fact, Hollie got her first video camera at the age of 10, and Xavier got his around 13!
When we filmed our first wedding, we realized how much joy we got out of capturing life in a way only video can, and that brought along a heightened appreciation and love for photography as well.
What was once just a fun hobby for us has become our family business.
In July 2022, we announced the opening of our primary studio location and Wedding Venue, The Opera House at Craigmiles Hall in historic downtown, Cleveland, TN.
After renovations and updates to the space, we launched a free-to-the community art program, "Elevate Art". In September 2022, The Opera House was recognized with the Best of Cleveland Award in the category of Event Venues.
In 2023, we became official members of MainStreet Cleveland, and partner with the non-profit in order to elevate awareness both of the amazing small business in historical downtown Cleveland, but also the incredible history of Clevleand, TN, all with the aim of elevating those around us.
In fact, our company is #CommunityNotCompetition.
Now: let's talk about how we can tell YOUR story.
