This sweet overalls-wearin’ cutie turned the big one last month! Feels like just yesterday we captured his newborn session — time just flies! 💙🥹

A late, yet very timely senior session share because this guy just committed to play football at Grove City College next year! ❤️🏈

We met Jacob and his sweet family back in youth football days, and we were so excited to be asked to capture his senior photos! We wish him the very best as he wraps up this special year and tackles all the new adventures ahead!

A super sweet maternity session with an incredible mountainous backdrop!🤰🌄

01/10/2025

We’ve photographed this family several more times since this session, but it’s too good not to share! Fall sessions with this cousin crew (and their parents, too!) are always a favorite of ours. 🍁🧡

01/09/2025

A for the cutest little fam bam in the whole entire world! 🧡 Love getting to watch these boys grow with each session!

01/08/2025

Still sharing some of the greatness of 2024, which includes the beauty — a true example of fearfully and wonderfully made! 💗 She’s tiny, yet mighty! 💪 (And completely irrelevant now, but she was the absolute best baby when I babysat her way back when! 🥹)

There’s no doubt Rebekah will continue making differences in this world as she graduates and prepares for a career helping others in the medical field.

Keep shining forever and ever, sweet girl! ✨

Woohoo! 🎉 We’re ecstatic to share we received the Top Wedding Vendor Award from Virginia Living Magazine! 🍾

We love getting to serve and celebrate couples on one of the biggest days of their lives! It’s something we don’t take lightly, and we are more than grateful for these opportunities year after year! ❤️

If you’re wedding planning and wanting a fun and dedicated photo + video team, let’s chat!

Even though most people shared their 2024 recap last week, we never got around to it while on our holiday hiatus. But honestly, 2024 was SO DANG GOOD that this recap was worth the wait! I can’t tell you how many smiles, laughs, and tears came with reliving some of these moments from the past year. ❤️

2024 and all the people that came with it, thank you!!! Our hearts are filled to the max because YOU trusted us to capture your precious milestones, events, and celebrations.

2025, we are ready for you and all the exciting things you’re bringing with it! 🎉

Earlier this week, we delivered our final wedding gallery of 2024 -- and goodness, was it a beautiful one!

Allyson and Andy planned their wedding from afar, but they knew they wanted to start their forever in the mountains. It was so sweet to see so many people celebrating this adorable couple, and it was incredible to see so many details of their love story tied into their big day! Congrats again, Mr. and Mrs. Duvall!

Looking back on some senior sessions is really making me miss the fall (and football season)! Tyberius wanted a simple and quick senior session, and despite battling rain, we made it happen! We are looking forward to what lies ahead for Ty! 🎓🏈

Senior Sunday for this one! The beauty you see on the outside is the same on the inside — and that makes Madison shine! ✨

Ally and Andy were quite literally the fairytale ending to our 2024 wedding season! They are such a sweet couple, and their wedding was nothing short of perfect! We hope they always feel the love and joy they experienced on their big day in the mountains with their closest friends and family! ❤️

Playing catchup on sharing some of our senior sessions we did earlier in the fall! So much fun getting to see these kids thrive in their senior year as they prepare for the next big step!

Owen, we know the best is yet to come! Really excited to see where your journey takes you!

This senior class keeps rollin’ in and bringin’ the heat! 🔥 Here are a few of our favorites from Turk’s session! We’ve loved watching him over the years, and we can’t wait to see where he ends up next year to continue his football career! 🏈

12/03/2024

Over the past month, we've managed to do 2 things:

1) Spend precious time with family celebrating senior nights, birthdays, holidays, etc. and updating family photos (see below)
2) edit, edit, edit!

We are so thankful for this busy season, but it's like we are hibernating in our editing cave and paying zero attention to social media. As we're nearing the end of this editing push, I am looking forward to sharing some incredible moments from weddings, as well as senior and family sessions, in the days ahead!

Thank you all for supporting us and loving us! We're so grateful to serve such amazing people! ❤️

Meet the Rettigs!

Hello, and thank you so much for stopping by to meet us!

We're the Rettigs -- forever newlyweds, wine lovers, and football fanatics. We met in 2015, got engaged at Disney World in 2017, and were married on Cinco de Mayo 2018. We have a son, Brayden, who is seriously the best kiddo in the entire world. He keeps us busy, and we love [trying] to keep up with him! We love a good adventure, and we love to travel. Fun fact: On the way home for each of our trips, we begin brainstorming our next adventure. (It's Brittany's way of coping with getting back to the "real world.")

As you navigate our website, blog, and social media, you will quickly learn that Brittany (that's me!) is the voice of Rettig Co. Grant can work up a catchy jingle in seconds and write the sweetest poem in minutes, but he leaves all the "talking" to me. I can't imagine why! ;) So, let me tell you a bit about myself and a bit about my incredibly awesome, creative, and talented hubby.

About Brittany: I am a small-town girl, raised on sweet tea and tomato gravy (don't knock it 'til you try it). I am obsessed with all things Disney, a sucker for lounging on the beach with a good book, and love going to UVA football and basketball games. I'm a bit of a sap, and Grant will probably tell you that for every emotion I feel, I cry. I am the happiest when I am surrounded by family and friends. I truly believe that you should never take a single second of this beautiful life for granted, and I love the fact that photos and videos help preserve times in our lives that we can share with generations to come.

About Grant: Grant grew up in Ohio, so naturally, he was a big Ohio State fan. (I'll be honest -- I'm a little jealous of his football team's record compared to my team's record.) He loves California, birdwatching, and Star Wars. He is really good at surprises, and he always has something up his sleeve. Those wild ideas often turn into some sort of an adventure, and that's exactly how we ended up as Rettig Co. Photo & Films. His wild and creative ideas have morphed into a business that is something that truly completes us!

Rettig Co. Photo & Films was formerly known as Grant Rettig Photography. Grant initially started Grant Rettig Photography to pursue his love for photography that dated back to his childhood days when he would borrow his parents' Pentax film camera. His passion for photography began with nature photography, and that passion has multiplied tenfold since then. After being a second shooter for weddings, Grant quickly realized that wedding photography was his true passion. He loves being able to spend a day capturing all of the details and compiling those details into photos and videos to last a lifetime. After Grant and Brittany got married, they felt an entirely new connection to capturing these once-in-a-lifetime moments. Grant's photography passion had been rubbing off on Brittany throughout their years of dating and being engaged, so she had picked up some photography skills along the way. When Grant decided to pursue videography in addition to photography, Brittany began to take on more of a lead role on the photography side. She had been second shooting for Grant on several occasions, so this was a smooth transition. Now, as husband and wife, Brittany and Grant offer photography and videography services together, and therefore, decided to start Rettig Co. Photo & Films. Brittany and Grant partner with various other photographers and videographers, and therefore have the ability to bring in a second shooter for photo and video should you hire Rettig Co. for all of your wedding and other event needs!
