Think of me as an additional bridesmaid, but without the drama!

I am here to guide you through it all. We will never just go straight into shooting. I will do my best to get to know you and your needs prior to the shoot. We will start off slow and easy as we warm up to each other. You’ll eventually have fun and forget that we’re shooting! By the time your wedding day comes, we will already be good friends and shooting will come naturally to you. You’re not awkward, you just need my help. 🙂

Philosophy

IT’S NOT ABOUT ME. IT’S ABOUT YOU.

I’m an introverted photographer, so chances are you won’t see me partying away on the dance floor. I like to think of myself as a ninja – sneaky and will always get the shot. My job is to never take attention away from you and your big day.

I DON’T DISCRIMINATE.

All is welcome here! LGBTQIA+ friendly.

Love is so diverse and I love capturing it all. I do not discriminate based on your looks, who you are, what color you are, or who you choose to love. I appreciate all kinds of love.

CELEBRATE YOUR LOVE THE WAY YOU WANT

I will never tell you how to celebrate your love. Unconventional weddings are my jam. Love is unique and so should your wedding be. Want to get married in a treehouse? Have a roller-skating reception? Pie instead of cake? I’m all for it! I will always share my opinion as a professional, but ultimately, you call all the shots. It’s your day and I’m here to listen.

HAVE FUN. DON’T TAKE LIFE TOO SERIOUSLY

We are our are own worst critic. The truth is, the more you are thinking about how you look, the more you are going to look unnatural in photos. I want you to have fun because your photos are going to be tied to the experience, and not so much about how that one piece of baby hair is in your face.

I WILL CAPTURE YOUR BEST ANGLES

I don’t believe in photoshopping your body to be something it’s not, but I will do my best to get your most flattering angles.

LOVE IS UNIQUE

I want to hear about your story. How did you meet? In what moment did you know she was the one? What do you guys like to do for fun? What makes your heart beat faster? Learning about your love helps me tell your story the way it should be told.

COMFORT + SAFETY COMES FIRST

I will never make you do anything you are not comfortable doing. Your comfort and safety are my top priority.

TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK

In order to create magic, we must work together. We are a team, so that means both parties are heavily involved in the planning process (outfits, locations, mood, etc.). I want to make sure that all visions are communicated so that we can bring it all to life!
