Rob and Jill. And Rob working a reception, which is the version most couples meet.
We have worked weddings with Rob and Jill. That is the bar for getting on this list - our DJs have shared a reception floor with them, which is a different thing from swapping business cards at a bridal show.
Rob and Jill Futrell run Photos by Rob + Jill Futrell out of St. Augustine. Ten-plus years, more than 2,500 sessions, and a WeddingWire Couples' Choice award nine years running.
They shoot the same rooms we work - the White Room, Lightner Museum, Treasury on the Plaza, Flagler College. When a photographer already knows where the light goes in a room at 6pm in October, that is time nobody spends on your wedding day figuring it out.
Why a husband-and-wife team is different
Plenty of photography companies book the name and send whoever is free. Here you get both of them, every time.
Two shooters who have to talk to each other to coordinate are two shooters missing the moment while they coordinate. Rob's own line about it: "The best part of working with Jill is that she knows what I'm thinking without me having to say it."
That matters most in the loud parts of the night - the entrance, the first dance, the last twenty minutes when the floor is full. We are watching the same moments from the booth, and we notice which photographers are in position before the moment happens rather than after.
Their line: "Less posing, more paying attention. Once you stop performing for the camera, the photos start looking like you." Which is the photography version of something we believe about a dance floor - the best part of the night is never the bit somebody staged.

His work
Five frames from Craig and Ashley's wedding at Sawgrass Country Club, all shot by Rob. It is a useful set to look at because it covers the whole arc of a night - the quiet part, the loud part, and the bit at the end everybody photographs badly.

Is a specialist the right call for you?
Honest answer: not always. If photos are a box you need ticked and the budget is the constraint, our own photo and video packages will do the job for less, and we would rather tell you that than watch you stretch.
But if the pictures are the part of the day you actually care about - the thing you will still be looking at when the flowers and the cake are a memory - that is the moment to book someone whose entire job is photographs. Book them early, though. Nine years of Couples' Choice awards means their Saturdays go fast.
