Capturing the Unconventional Love Story

We’re Abby and Jake, the team behind Velvet Fern—a brand born from a passion for capturing love stories that break all the rules. What began as Abby’s solo journey under Abriella Photo for the past four years has evolved into a creative partnership where artistry and storytelling collide. With Abby’s background in art, tattooing , design and photography and Jake’s roots in music, we bring an unconventional, edgy perspective to every session.
Velvet Fern is for the couples who dare to do things differently—the wild-hearted, the deeply in love, and the unapologetically themselves. Whether it’s an elopement on a mountaintop or a micro-wedding in a candlelit space, we’re here to turn your story into art that’s raw, real, and unforgettable. Let’s create something extraordinary together.

OUR APPROACH
We believe photography is more than just images—it’s about telling your story in a way that feels true to who you are. Our process is rooted in collaboration, creativity, and making sure every moment feels effortless and fun. Here’s how we bring your vision to life:

With Velvet Fern, your session is more than just a photoshoot—it’s an experience. Let’s create something magical together.

Storyboard
We approach every session like a cinematic masterpiece, with your love story as the script. Whether it’s an elopement, a micro-wedding, adventure session or even branding session, we plan each shoot to visually follow a stroyline. We guide you through a mix of candid moments and creative prompts, ensuring your personalities shine through every frame. Think of it as a balance between documentary-style magic and a little artistic direction to create something truly unforgettable.
Comfortable & Fun
We know being in front of a camera can feel intimidating, but that’s where we thrive. Our goal is to create an environment where you feel completely comfortable and can truly be yourselves. We’ll crack jokes, cue up your favorite playlist, and embrace all the spontaneous moments that make your connection unique. No stiff poses here—just authentic, real interactions.
Tailored to You
We understand that no two couples are alike, which is why our approach is completely customizable. Whether you’re planning a windswept mountain elopement, a quirky urban adventure, or a laid-back session in your favorite spot, we take the time to get to know your story and what matters most to you.
Untraditional, Like You
We celebrate the bold and the unconventional. Velvet Fern is for the couples who rewrite the rules, who want something different, and who aren’t afraid to show their quirks. We embrace the wild, funny, and deeply personal sides of your relationship, turning those moments into stunning, timeless photographs.
A Keepsake of Your Love
At the end of it all, you’ll have more than just photos—you’ll have a collection of memories that feel like stepping into your story every time you look at them. It’s not just about how your day looked; it’s about how it felt, and that’s what we aim to capture.
