You don’t make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.
― Ansel Adams

THE EXPERIENCE

01. THE REAL YOU

Most of my clients say "sorry we are uncomfortable in front of the camera" or "we are so awkward". I PROMISE you are not. Having your photos taken does not have to be an uncomfortable experience in any way. I don't "pose" per se, I will direct and make you feel at ease during the shoot.

My style is purely focused on REAL moments. Nothing should feel forced or weird. (Who wants that on their wedding day? The answer is no one.)

Sure, I will give you the traditional "smile at the camera" photo for grandma, and the group family photos, but when it comes to the two of you, you'll receive the real stuff. You'll feel the emotion, the love, the weird, the imperfect. You'll see what makes you, you. Which I think is pretty great.

02. DID WE JUST BECOME BEST FRIENDS?

I don't want to be your vendor & you're not my clients. I want to be more than just the photographer at your wedding, we are besties now.

It's more than just taking photos. It's a collaboration. We will work together to create a unique gallery of photos that speaks authentically to the love you share.

The most important thing to me is making sure that you are happy and at ease on the biggest day of your life.

03. MY STYLE

I don't stick to just one style. I'm not "moody/dark" I'm not "light & airy". Every wedding is so different, my style transforms at every wedding I shoot. I am capturing YOUR memories, not my own. We will work together to create something beautifully you, that you can be proud of and cherish forever.

04. IM YOUR GO TO GIRL

What I hate hearing most is that a bride and groom just want the day to be over so they can stop worrying and stressing. I am here to hep you make it as stress free as possible. Ill help with the to dos and not to dos, figuring out permits, insurance, I got you covered.

Have FUN planning your day, enjoy this time with your friends and family. Im here to help in whatever capacity you need. I want your day to be super amazing and stress-free.

Let's get started!

Getting to know my couples is the most important to me. If you’re looking for a photographer to just get the typical “smile at the camera”, super posed photos, I might not be your girl. I use photography to tell the narrative of your wedding day. For years to come, I want you to look back at your photos and feel the same emotions you did on the day of your wedding.

I want to be more than just the photographer at your wedding, I want to be your friend and get to know who you are. I’m all about having genuine connections with my couples, so then on your wedding day I can capture your true personalities and tell the unique story of your love.
