Yay!
You’re Getting Married!
Weddings should celebrate the start of your marriage with the people who mean the most to you
Are you looking for colorful wedding photos that capture genuine emotion of the moment?
Do you want to look back on your wedding photos and feel your wedding day all over again?
Do you want to see images of yourself and think “that’s us”?
MY PHOTOGRAPHY FOCUSES ON CAPTURING THE INTIMATE, MEANINGFUL MOMENTS
BETWEEN PEOPLE WITH A FOCUS ON GOOD LIGHT AND COLOR.
My Philosophy
Weddings are about:
01
CONNECTION
The people you celebrate the start of your marriage with should be the people who you can’t image getting married without. I believe that these relationships should be the focus of your wedding day and it’s my job to tell that story.
02
TRUE COLOR
I believe your photos should reflect the way your day looked and felt. You won’t get any washed out editing or dark and muddy images from me. Only true, vibrant color that accurately shows your true skin color and the color of your decor.
03
LAUGHTER
Bottom line: You should have fun on your wedding day! I don’t believe in swift and perfect posing. But rather authentic interactions between you + your spouse and you + your favorite people. I want you to look back at your photos and say that was an AMAZING day!
04
REAL + UNSCRIPTED MOMENTS
I believe that the best images come from being IN the moment with you. I’m not afraid to get elbowed on the dance floor or up close and personal during cocktail hour. I want your images to feel alive and full of real moments.
05
EXPLORATION
We live in a beautiful country and I absolute love by the beauty around me while photographing connected couples in front of me. I’m inspired by light and scenery and our small place in a beautiful scene. I’m not afraid to hike and adventure with you too.
06
EMOTION
I never want you to be afraid to show your emotions. Whether they’re tears or belly laughs or jumping high fives, let all of your feeling out on your wedding day. Not only will I be smiling or crying with you behind the camera, these emotions drive me to create my best work.
Your Experience
Weddings are about more than a big party. They’re about a marriage. They’re about family–grandparents, siblings, kiddos, college roommates, and your furry children. They’re about the anticipation of a new adventure; about partnerships and connection. They’re about loud laughter and quiet emotion. They’re about the little touches throughout the day that say I’m here and I’m so glad you are too.
Whether you’re celebrating with your family or your chosen family (or any combination in between), I want to be there to capture it.
I proudly photograph the LGBTQ+ community because
love is love is love

You’ll know by how comfortable you feel talking to me and how excited you are to have me capture your relationships on your wedding day.

It’s a great time for you to both take a breath during the wedding planning process and spend some quality time together.

Planning for less than 50 guests?
Planning an intimate elopement?
Here’s the thing. Deep down I’m pretty dorky and
awkward in front of the camera, too.
So I know a thing or two about making you feel comfortable during your session.
