Our Story!
For anyone who is new around here, let us introduce ourselves! Our names are Tom and Sierra Ende, and we are a photography duo located in the Finger Lakes region of New York!
Our story starts way before photography was a part of our lives, and it’s actually quite funny. (If you’re interested in cute love stories, keep reading, if you just want to know how we became wedding photographers, skip to the next paragraph.) We met for the first time in elementary school at none other than our local skatepark. You might think that we immediately “hit if off” and became best friends, but that story would be boring. We of course became enemies first, only to be made much worse when we later showed up to school wearing the same Green Day shirt (oops). There was even a small incident at recess where one of us got pushed down by the other (we won’t name names) Like any good predictable story, we ended up graduating as high school sweethearts in 2012, and celebrated our own wedding in September 2022!
After high school, we both fell into the creative field immediately. Sierra received her BFA from the Rochester Institute of Technology, while Tom immersed himself in the world of photography and videography. In 2018, we were asked to photograph a close friends wedding, and the rest is history. During the reception, we looked at each other and knew that this was the business we wanted to pursue. Later that same year, we officially launched Tom and Sierra Wedding Photography!
Ever since, we have continued to fall in love with the job. Having the opportunity to work with such amazing couples, hear their stories, and be able to document one of the most joyous days of their lives has been more fulfilling than we could have ever imagined! If you’re interested in working with us, and you think we might be the perfect match for your big day, we would love to hear from you! Please reach out via our contact page!
