When you think about your wedding day, what is your dream? My hope is when your celebration comes to a close, you will always remember what it felt like to be lost in moments so joyful and love-filled that time stood still. It’s these moments, and the people and details that make them come alive, that I believe you will treasure forever. 

I love listening to romantic stories about your relationship and bringing them to life through my lens, crafting timelines that always include extra time for portraits, and becoming fast friends with you, your love, and everyone in your wedding party. I have an affinity for pastel color palettes, gorgeous details, natural light-filled venues, and candid photos that share every in-between moment. Most of all, I believe in shining a light on the start of your marriage because this story – your story –will be your family’s favorite to relive for generations to come.

The Wedding Process

We will work together to find the perfect date and location for your engagement session. I generally recommend holding your engagement session 6-9 months out from your wedding date. We will spend up to 2 hours together and no need to be nervous - I'll coach you through every step of the way. This is a great opportunity to get to know each other and get comfortable in front of the camera. I’ll arrive on your wedding day already knowing how you two interact, what your best poses are and how to photograph you in a genuine way!
