And we wouldn’t want it any other way. Telling love stories is more than a job for us—it’s part of our legacy.
From following happy couples with cameras in hand to raising our little boy band at 11,000 feet high in the Colorado Rockies, our life is full of a whole lotta love and not a whole lotta sleep.
We’re a real-life example of dreams coming true—and now we want a front-row seat to yours.

Dave & Shanna
“Dave and Shanna aren’t just going to be another vendor at your wedding—they are genuine people you’re going to want to share the rest of your life with.”
“Dave and Shanna treated us with the utmost respect and always went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable and understood.”
“They took their time getting to know us as a couple, including our wishes for the day, our hopes for the style of art captured, and any special requests we might have.”
“No words seem worthy enough to describe the talent Dave and Shanna shared with us. The connection was immediate; the flow—natural.”
“Every step of the way, Dave and Shanna were so communicative and attentive. From the flowers to the location, they made sure everything was perfect.”
“Dave and Shanna are nothing like your ordinary photographers—they're passionate folks that clearly love every single moment of their work.”

All good things start with a good story—ours goes
a bit like this:
THESE DAYS, WE JUGGLE
TWO CREATIVE BUSINESSES,
ENDLESS LOADS OF LAUNDRY,
AND A LIFE BUILT AROUND STORYTELLING.
Whatever your story looks like, the big milestones and the little in-between moments mean everything. Because your wedding isn’t “the best day ever”—it's the first of many good, hard, boring, and beautiful days to come. Your marriage is the whole picture. And we want to help you remember how it all began.
We built Basecamp Visual to share the messy joy of real life by celebrating what matters most:
GO OFF THE BEATEN PATH
DANCE MOVES
BAD DAD JOKES
Bad Dad Jokes & Even Worse Dance Moves
CHASING THE MORNING SUN
DECK BEERS & EPIC VIEWS
LITTLE MOMENTS
LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE
HIKING IN THE FOREST
We’re not here to be the next influencer, industry educator, or “Colorado's best photographer and videographer” (despite being pretty damn good). We’re here because we love this work. We don’t need the recognition, the social media notoriety, or to brag about how many weddings we’ve captured. We just want to make honest connections and tell real love stories.
You won’t meet a more “professional” version of us on your wedding day. We’re the same people from inquiry to sending you your final gallery and film. You’ll never catch us faking it because we believe the real stuff is worth remembering—questionable dance moves, obscure movie and music references, innocent bickering—you’ll see, haha.
We didn’t start out like the typical husband-and-wife photo and video team. Long story short, Dave started with videography and eventually taught Shanna, who then went on to learn photography. With us, you get a motion-driven team that edits cohesively and works together like a happily married couple (because we are).
We’re in this for the long haul because someday, your grandkids will flip through your wedding album or press play on your wedding film. Shanna knows firsthand how powerful that is, having cherished the candid photos of her grandparents’ early love story. Nearly 90 years later, those images still mean everything. We want that for you, too.
We’re here for real stuff, not the boring wedding day fluff.
BUT WHY US?

“SHANNA + DAVE ARE AMAZING HUMANS.”
"I know the care and love they put into their clients, and I know it because their reason is so their own family can have lives full of love and epic adventure and kindness."
