Do you want total confidence that you can TRUST your photographer to not only document your wedding (duh), but to also be a helpful and friendly person to hang out with for 8+ hours on your wedding day? Are you looking for someone who truly “gets” you and brings out the most special, quirky, and fun parts of your relationship? And are you excited to work alongside someone who can help you make the BEST informed decisions while planning your wedding? I like to remind my couples to look around and enjoy every bit of their engagement and wedding day. And while you’re taking in the moment, I’ll be right beside you photographing it all.

a timeless style
So what do I mean by "photos that will stand the test of time"? It's easy to see the seasonal tends that pass through the wedding photography world, because weddings are naturally so visual, filled with beautiful people and decor! Words like "light & airy" or "dark and moody" get used a lot to describe specific styles, but I'd say I land right in the middle. My editing style won't look drastically different than the way everything looked in real life. I seek out bright and colorful backgrounds, and find beautiful, natural light that will make you really stand out!
the real you
I start every photo session by saying "The most important thing is to be yourself." And it's true! If you feel like yourself, and not a stiff, posed version of yourself, you'll love your photos SO much more. I'll help you pose a bit and tell you what to do with your hands, but the key to having natural, candid looking photos is movement. Those wind-in-you-hair, magical moments happen with a little prompting from me + confidence from you. I'll talk a lot and keep you moving throughout the session, and we'll have a blast!

She is a beautiful portrait photographer and encourages her subjects to act naturally together in order to capture their relationship perfectly.
