Finally, slip into our Signature Astrophotography Session, wandering handpicked locations beneath the starlit sky. Wrapped in blankets with lanterns flickering nearby, you’ll sip mulled wine, tea, or cocoa as the stars ignite overhead. 

Over 4-5 hours, we'll explore multiple locations

100+ images are captured and expertly retouched, creating a story of your love written in the sky.
