Us

THE DURDENS

Fourteen years, two kids, and a marriage that survived building a business in the same house.

Paired portraits — two slots, same frame, same light

Two takes

Should couples share passwords?

Same question. Separate rooms. No editing afterwards.

JT

Yes, and I do not think it is a big deal. If you need a locked phone you already made a decision.

Lauren

No. I do not want access, I want to not need it. Those are different marriages.

We disagree

Separate bank accounts.

He says one pot. She says three. Neither of them is moving.

JT

One pot. If we are building the same life I do not want to work out whose money bought the couch.

Lauren

Three. Ours, his, mine. I have had my own money since I was nineteen and I am not giving that up to prove something.

Who are you with?

Still life — two phones face down on a table, candle

Tonight's question

One question, both of you

What's something you've wanted more of lately?

Your answer stays between you two. Neither answer shows until you reveal them. Built for two people who are already together.

Wide — car keys, jacket, street at dusk

Date night roulette

Neither of you has to decide

Budget, energy, and how much time you actually have. It picks. You go.

Relationship stuff

The things people ask us about

  • Working together

    Two years of getting it wrong before it worked.

    Both of them, honestly, on camera.

Behind this

Thursday, 2pm, the garage

What a shoot day actually looks like when both of you are in it and one kid has a fever.

One question, two answers, and they do not compare notes first.
