On your wedding day, my goal is to create an experience that feels effortless and allows you to be fully present.
I approach the day with a documentary mindset focusing on capturing moments as they naturally unfold rather than overly staging them. This allows your photos to feel genuine, emotional, and true to your story.
During portraits, I’ll gently guide you with natural prompts and movement to create images that feel relaxed and authentic. Outside of those moments, I try to be a fly on the wall just documenting.
I never want your wedding to feel like it revolves around photos. Instead, my role is to support you in enjoying every moment so you can focus on being present with the people you love most, while I thoughtfully document it all.
I usually connect over a FaceTime call so we can meet face-to-face and get to know each other a bit better. It’s a relaxed space for you to ask any questions and talk through your vision for the day.
(Pet appearances are always welcome.)
All of my wedding collections include a complimentary engagement session, giving us the opportunity to connect in person before your wedding day and helping you feel more comfortable in front of the camera.
Each session includes two outfits and two locations, allowing for a variety of looks and a more personalized experience. Many couples like to turn it into a date night!
Your wedding day is finally here!! I’m so excited for you both! I’ll be in touch the morning of to let you know I’m on my way. If I haven’t photographed at your venue before, I typically arrive 15–30 minutes early to familiarize myself with the space and lighting. Throughout the day, I take a documentary approach blending in to capture moments as they naturally unfold, while also providing gentle direction during couples, wedding party, and family portraits. My goal is for everything to feel seamless and relaxed, so you can fully enjoy each moment while I thoughtfully document it all.
Your gallery delivery day is such a special moment!! One worth slowing down and truly experiencing together. I recommend setting aside time with your partner, your favorite drink, and a larger screen so you can fully take in every detail. Your gallery will be thoughtfully curated in chronological order, allowing you to relive your day exactly as it unfolded from beginning to end.

I absolutely love traveling and would be honored to document your day wherever it takes place. Please reach out for a customized quote based on your location and plans! I’d love to create something tailored just for you.
Some collections include this, and for those that don’t, you always have the option to add it on to best fit your needs.
Since the engagement session is included as a complimentary part of your experience, it isn’t able to be applied toward wedding day coverage or pricing. That said, I always highly recommend taking advantage of it. It gives us the opportunity to work together before your wedding day, helping you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera while creating something meaningful along the way.
Over the last 6 years I have done 150+ weddings
That’s a great question! Coverage can vary depending on your day, but my most popular collection is 10 hours. This allows for a more relaxed, unhurried experience giving space for genuine, intimate moments to unfold naturally. It typically includes part of getting ready through about an hour of open dancing, capturing both the quiet and celebratory moments of your day.
