About

We are the Kerns, literally, a husband and wife photography duo. We don't have a mesmerizing story about picking up cameras and feeling "it", or whatever. What we do have is an intense passion for storytelling and a love for the people who have graciously invited us into their lives all around the country. Our business is built on these stories and those places; the combination of the two has impacted us greatly. If you're hoping for images that will make your heart swell for years to come, stick around. Let's make something wildly beautiful together.

Sam & Autumn are the best!

Working with Sam and Autumn was incredible! It was so nice having a photographer/videographer team that knew each other well, they kept us relaxed and focused on enjoying our big day, they handled all the details! We can't wait to see the video, and absolutely LOVE how the photos came out. Working with them for planning, all the way through to after the wedding was a dream. Can't recommend these two enough!

Sam and Autumn are the Dream Team

I cannot say enough good things about both of these lovely humans! Between the two of them, they will not miss a moment of your perfect day! Autumn's photography style is beautiful and she will make every picture look flawless. Sam will help you relive your wedding day through his amazing videography. They work together seamlessly to capture every moment and I couldn't be happier we chose both of them to be a part of our day! Please hire them, you will not regret it!

The BEST experience

We hit the jackpot when we found Autumn. She literally was the best photographer we could have found for our November 9th wedding. Autumn was with us for the engagement photos and the actual wedding date and did NOT disappoint. She helped up feel comfortable and was able to seamlessly capture moments of our wedding we didn't even know about. She did a beautiful job and had our photos back to us FIVE days after the wedding. We could not be happier with our choice in Autumn and would recommend her to anyone!

Autumn is the best!

There are just no words to adequately describe Autumn. She was a god-send. From our initial phone calls and video chats, to the day of the wedding, Autumn went above and beyond. She was ever-present, answered all of our questions (there were many!), guided us, informed us, and took absolutely stunning pictures. She’s a true pro, and brings a genuine care to the job. Autumn felt more like a friend photographing our wedding than a photographer. She is a blast to be around and get to know. She made us feel so relaxed and the entire experience was unforced and natural. This aspect of her style truly shines through the beautiful photos she captured. Her photos are not cheesy portraits you look at once and tuck away to gather dust. We love looking at them, can relive our experiences through them, and everyone who sees them can’t compliment them enough. We are truly grateful for Autumn’s professionalism, her keen eye, and her glorious personality and sense of humor. Is there a way to give more than 5 stars? We love you Autumn!

Picture Perfect

One of the very best decisions we made in the wedding planning process was choosing Autumn as our photographer along with a second shooter, and Sam as our videographer. Their professionalism, reliability, efficiency, positive attitudes and vibes, and countless other positive attributes, were crystal clear through the planning process and on our wedding day. They flawlessly integrated themselves into our day, kept us calm and collected, kept us to our schedule (which Autumn helped us to develop), and managed to create beautiful works of art which we will treasure for all our years to come. Autumn and her team make you feel like you are friends who have known each other for years, even when meeting for the first time on your wedding day. Autumn handled our wedding party of 24 plus 2 flower girls and a ring bearer, with patience and grace. We excitedly recommend Autumn Kern Photo for anyone looking for an amazing, stress-free experience and beautiful products!

Favorite vendor

I can not say enough good things about Autumn. A coworker of mine used her for their wedding and I knew from that moment I wanted her to capture mine. Four years later we made it happen! She is so kind and friendly, she made it so we didn't feel stressed or awkward at all. And the pictures are AMAZING. The way she captured my wedding was even better than I could have imagined. Her style is beautiful and the whole experience was completely stress free and easy. And to top it all off, she got the photos back to us INCREDIBLY quick (I was so impressed!) Absolutely my favorite vendor from my wedding. Thank you Autumn!!

Picking a photographer is one of the most important choices you can make when you are planning your wedding. I knew I wanted Autumn initially because she had the same aesthetic that I was going for. She also was highly recommended by my wedding planner. In the months leading up to the wedding, we had a skype session and really delved into what I was looking for for the big day. I felt so confident going in that Autumn would take care of us.. and she did not disappoint! From creating whimsical first looks, to wrangling blended families, cousins etc, to capturing our ceremony and reception. She also shoots with her assistant so we have the most beautiful photos of our tables, signage, decor invitations. Do yourself a favor and check out her instagram. She is a true artist!

We are SO happy we worked with Autumn. She's the utmost professional and was so easy to work with. As a photographer, she put us at ease. She helped us bring our vision to life but wasn't afraid to nudge us in the right direction either. We're so grateful for her work, her commitment, and her presence!

Thanks Autumn!!

From the moment i looked at Autumns website/portfolio i immediately fell in love with her style of shooting and ability to capture the emotion of the moment and the personality of the couple. It can be stressful posing for pictures but she made up completely at ease and was so amazing to work with. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for any couple!!

We hired Autumn, a second shooter and her brother-in-law/Videographer and we are so happy we did. My husband and I loved Autumn's style immediately and when I found she had added a Videographer I jumped for joy! We had sadly not met Autumn before our wedding day but she walked in like she had been part of our lives forever. She's funny and has a comforting presence and tries to make you feel good while you're in front of her lens. It was hilarious when she called the groomsmen "chaos made flesh" and a truer statement has never been made. She dealt with my raucous crew with a smile all night and dealt with the few family photographer's that sometimes got in the way with grace. I LOVE my photos and I LOVE my video. I worried after the wedding we didn't get certain shots and when we received the photos, there were shots I was amazed were taken! They were like ninjas! I loved working with these 3 talented individuals and I love the outcome of their art. I have a small background working in photography and my sister is a professional photographer so I knew I would be picky when it came to settling on a photographer for our big day. She says on her website that the dress gets put away, you may never see the venue again but you'll always have the photos. She puts into action her beliefs and I got such great photos of my day that I will cherish until the end of time. I want to print like every single photo, picking favorites is hard right now! When I looked at my favorites, I noticed I had "favorited" the majority of the photos! My husband who I thought would look awkward not being used to being in front of a camera -- looked like a model. There were photos I just yelled "YES!" at because it captured the feeling of the day, our feelings toward each other and just were breathtakingly beautiful. Autumn connects with her clients and I think that's why her photos are so great. I would definitely recommend We Are The Kerns to everyone!
