MEET KARRIE AND MARK
Key West wedding photography team documenting your day of love and laughter with a shared mission to fulfill a legacy and uphold the highest standards of imaging craft and creativity.
We know your wedding day will be whirlwind of timeless moments and heartfelt celebrations, one that deserves to be captured with upmost care, by photographers committed to the art (but also familiar with the logistics) of destination weddings.
But to know where we are now is only half the story; you should understand first how we got here.
Our partnership came about from the legacy of one of Key West’s finest wedding photographers, the late Rachel E Ligon, who shaped the landscape of Key West weddings and raised the bar on what it meant to succeed in this industry. To Karrie, she was the top competing wedding photographer but also a best friend and confidant. To Mark, she was a colleague, employer, and mentor.
After her passing in August 2023, we realized a shared appreciation for how her influence had shaped our previously-separate photography careers, and we decided to join forces and continue our work as wedding photographers together as a team.
To us, being part of your big day is not just profession, but a calling. Weddings are filled with intimate moments, surprising expressions, and joyous emotions. When you work with us, you’re getting two professionals with the perfect mix of personalities, artistic and technical strengths, and the goal to provide you with vibrant, true-to-life, high-quality photos you’ll treasure for life.

soak in every visual detail from your day
From the crisp facets of the diamond ring reflecting off your hand mirror as you get ready, to the quiet serenity of a local sailboat floating by during the ceremony; from the high heels to clasps of hands; and from the moment those poised poses turn to waterworks when you finally walk down the aisle, we will be there to capture it all.

READY TO TELL YOUR LOVE STORY?
When Erik and Kim chose Key West for their elopement, they weren’t chasing grandeur—they were embracing intention. Their day was a beautiful reminder that love doesn’t need an audience to be profound. With the sun-drenched streets of Old Town as their aisle and the quiet stillness of the courthouse chapel as their venue, they celebrated in a way that was deeply personal and effortlessly elegant. From the iconic Kapok Tree to the hidden corners of Fort Zachary Taylor, every backdrop told part of their story—and we were honored to document it all. This is more than just an elopement recap; it’s a love letter to small weddings, thoughtful planning, and the kind of photography that captures not just how it looked, but how it felt.
