YOUR WEDDING DAY EXPERIENCE
The Approach
The experience of your wedding day is uniquely YOURS.
Integrating your personality, who you are as a couple and your wants/needs and your vision are all things to consider when planning your wedding day, booking vendors, etc.
I love to get to know each couple by your interests, your stories, your love languages, etc. This information helps create something so beautiful and memorable.
Working with natural light when possible and focusing on capturing the details that create the ambiance and set the day and event apart is something that is very important. Each wedding day is different, each couple is different and that is something I like to embody.
While we do obtain the portraits that may require some prompts/posing, I also believe in just letting you be to let things flow naturally between the two of you. A combination of prompts/poses, candids and documentary-styles are all of the different types of images you can expect to see in your gallery.

Creating your ideal day & what that looks like.
Here's a secret: Your ideal day can look like anything you want it to.
Fast forward 50 years. What do you see when you look back on your wedding day? Does that mean holding your photos in your hands in an album and sharing it with your family or even passing down those photos to your families one day? Who do you see in those photos? These are a few things to think about when planning your wedding, who to include and what vendors will help you create those memories.
Your wedding day is one of the most memorable days of your life. From the day you are engaged to the honeymoon, at times it can seem like you wish time would just slow down. My goal is to not only capture these significant moments in your life but to help you enjoy them also.
The Process
01. Connect
I want to know you, your love story, how you met, etc.! The beauty of all of this is YOUR story and it deserves to be told in a beautiful, unique way.
Share your story
02. Conceptualize
Now that I've heard some about you, let's take a dive into the planning process and what you want most out of your wedding day.
Develop Your Vision
03. Create
So now that you have dug deep and found the things that are most meaningful to you and your partner, let's implement your vision!
Bring it to life
This is our process:
I. Book the date.
First, inquire by filling out the contact form. A paid retainer of 25% and signed contract ensures that your date is officially booked!
II. Timeline & capturing the day.
Prior to the wedding date, we can discuss a timeline for your day. An itemized timeline is included with each wedding collection. This helps us for the day-of.
III. Deliver memories.
Now, we wait! Part of the creative process is allowing adequate time to receive your photos. Once delivered, you can save, share and order prints.
you deserve to have the best experience possible. Our goal is to make that happen.
my belief is your wedding day should encompass your wants and needs and who you are as a couple.
Helping You Plan
Whether you are planning to see each other prior to your ceremony or waiting until the ceremony, it is crucial to have someone in your corner to make these decisions for your wedding day.
While first looks can be somewhat controversial, there are a lot of benefits to doing a first look. Here are some things to consider:
- If you're more introverted and want to read your vows privately without reading them in front of your guests,
- If you feel more calm, cool and collected once you see your person and the sense of peace they bring
- If you want to share those memories privately without distraction or nerves getting in the way.
These are all things to consider when deciding whether to do a first look on your wedding day.
