Common Ground Collective

We had the immense pleasure being in front of the lens of Common Ground, what a joy this experience was. With two toddlers the task was not easy, but boy did they make it look easy! They stepped into the wild imagination of a child and just followed them on their little adventures, with that creating very special memories! To this day we hold these memories captive! Looking forward to our next session!!!

The work of Common Ground Collective is of outstanding quality all the time.

Marike is amazing. She is comfortable and made my husband and I feel at ease. Our photos were more than we could have ever expected! They captured every moment in the most beautiful way! Would recommend 100%

Really an awesome company who goes out of their way to serve their clients. Many production and media companies out there, not many as caring about people as CGC is. My wife and I had engagement shoot and family shoots with them and they are really awesome. Super quality work!

What a pleasure it was to work with Marike and Dylan, the owners of Common Ground Collective. They were profoundly professional but so friendly. I felt at home infront of the cameras just because they were behind it. They wrote my script, had wonderful creative ideas for our project but ideas that were practical. The editing process was done with perfection and Marike delivered a product that I could just be in awe with. Thank you Common Ground Collective for the attention you pay to even the smallest detail to create a perfect product and especially the warm, friendly and people orientated environment you create when you work with your clients.

I feel like the laughter photo sums up our session with Common Ground Collective. They made our maternity shoot a very real, personal, emotional and intimate experience. They cultivated a joyful and comfortable atmosphere for us to just be ourselves and to be present in the moment with each other and to take every second in. They led us in some beautiful staged poses (as we are not professional models, lol) but also encouraged us to be natural and spontaneous and then managed to capture the most beautiful moments. Thank you Common Ground Collective for giving us these memories.

Spending time with these 2 creatives is an absolute treat. They are incredibly professional, but make you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. They truly bring out the best in everyone they work with and the best part is their work is so beautiful! Would definitely recommend!
