Each of our clients walks away with a gorgeous photo album of their engagement and wedding after their journey as an F&F client comes to an end.

your wedding photos should be more than a phone background

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD

Handcrafted photo books with supple, museum grade paper and archival ink. 

Most couples don't just want to have their photos taken. They want to use them, share them, and revisit them.

Here at Fern & Fountain, we're passionate about savoring the small things, filling your life and home with your most sacred memories. 

In this digital age of scrolling and AI, there's something truly special about holding your memories in your hand, paging through them together, and eventually sharing your album with little ones born through your love.

weddings shouldn 't be celebrated only once 

A marriage is a lifetime commitment, celebrated for only one day. Wedding photos shouldn't only be displayed on your instagram feed and on your partner's lock screen.

You dreamed of your wedding for months, years, or decades before it happened. Then in one day, it's over. Don't let it go, hold on to it. 

Your vows promised "for better and for worse, in sickness and in health, 'til death do us part, as long as we both shall live." Reminders of those vows, of that commitment to love, should be on display across our homes. 

This is why we are passionate about connecting you to the most premium printed albums and framed art in the country, to remind you of the best day of your lives, for the rest of your life. 

Handcrafted, with raw edged pages of supple, museum grade paper and archival ink. 

i lost my own wedding photos

Years ago, when I was a bride, and was not yet a wedding photographer, my wedding photographer handed me my wedding photos on a flash drive.

After a few years of plugging it annually to make an anniversary instagram post, I lost it.

As I sat on my bedroom floor, dumping my socks on the carpet, frantically digging through my jewelry boxes, I realized I not only had thousands of dollars go missing when that flash drive disappeared- but thousands of memories were gone as well.

My spouse had been the most important person in my life, my best friend, and my soulmate. And together, he and I made new best friends, new little soulmates- our children. Our children would never see our wedding- the day daddy and I promised to spend a lifetime together, for better or for worse, 'til death do us part. 

I'm not leaving my clients in that position. Your emotional and financial investment is too important.




But yes, I found the flash drive. I immediately ordered a massive album, and now my children and whole family regularly revisit the day mommy and daddy fell in love. 

A note from F&F Founder Emily Wilkerson, a frenzied bride who lost the best day of her life.

albums are for your kids

When your 15 year old daughter asks to see mom and dad's wedding pictures, are you even going to know where to find your photos? You would have gone through several laptops and phones by then, and tech will have changed so much that hard drives of today will be as good as floppy disks at that time.

Yes, you're going to head straight to the place where you keep your most important objects. The top shelf, or perhaps on your dresser. You're doing to reach out and touch the sleek cover of your wedding album, you pick it up, and sit with your daughter, walking her through page by page.

It's a piece of your legacy. That whole "for better or for worse" thing in vows? This album will be there through it all, and it will mean more over time.

it's your first investment into your legacy

Your relationship is a love story, one that will be your rock through seasons of "for better" and "for worse." When the years roll by, and your smiles are wrinkled and your hair is white, this album will remind you from where you came, what you've walked through, and how your love has changed and grown through all the different parts of your journey.

A few moments from my own wedding day in 2017. We had an intimate wedding on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay and are currently living happily ever after near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with two adorable little boys.
