We love working with Love in Motion for photography and videography needs. Love in Motion is a three-person team that promises to capture the “candid moments,” so you have authentic memories from your special day.
Love in Motion can deliver a range of photography styles, including moody, light and airy, cinematic, warm, vivid, and playful.
The photographers at Love in Motion have worked several weddings at Modern Moments, which means they already know the best photo spots at the venue.
Photography packages start at $1,900 for four hours, $2,000 for six hours, and $2,100 for eight hours.
When planning a wedding, your photographer should be one of the first vendors you book (after confirming the venue). Photographers are in high demand and book nine months to a year in advance.

When it comes to DJ services, the team has a wide range of musical styles and can deliver on anything the couple desires.
Your DJ plays a vital role on the wedding day. They’ll play the right music at the right time for smooth ceremony transitions, help create custom playlists that capture the wedding party’s favorite hits, and ensure there’s a packed dance floor post-dinner.

You’ll need to schedule a consultation to ensure they can provide the exact services and style you’re hoping for.
When a venue and your vendors have a pre-existing relationship, it means everyone is incredibly prepared for the special day.
