working together feels...


Present, attentive, and steady


I show up ready, observant, and adaptable. My background in family and motherhood photography shaped how I approach the weight of your wedding day. I'm here to celebrate with you and share your excitement, without losing sight of the details that hold so much weight to you both.


I focus on:


  • Your traditions & key moments
  • Complimenting the vision you curated for your wedding day
  • Storytelling through prompted portraits & candids
  • Photographs that reflect your celebration


My goal is to document the day honestly and keep the memory of your wedding close for decades.

okay, but what's it really like?

Moody, heartfelt & a little weird.

My goal is to curate a wedding gallery that screams "epic lovestory".


I like to call my style "moody storytelling". It's like a perfect mix of narrative photography, plus the documentary style that has every hopeless romantic in a chokehold. That's where I like to stay.


But what does that even mean?

When it comes to bridal portraits, I step in and provide intentional prompting and directions with the goal of sparking something authentic. With a little bit of intention and creativity in my tool belt, I keep my eye on composition, details, and telling your love story through romantic imagery.


But I'm not here to write your entire wedding day, so my approach includes being a "fly on the wall". I'll get your big hugs with grandpa when you're not looking, snap stills of your thoughtfully planned out decor and excitedly get out my camera's flash to catch your sister doing the stanky leg under twinkle lights.

 

Let's talk

I photograph weddings and elopements because these celebrations are sentimental, unpredictable, and deeply human. I work with couples of all identities, orientations, and expressions of love. If you’re planning a day that reflects who you are and who you love boldly, you can trust me to photograph it with empathy and confidence.
