An inspiring experience for

Built on personalization, belonging, and creative collaboration, your wedding photography experience will be marked by grace and ease at every opportunity. 

My philosophy is simple: Your utmost enjoyment is priority number one. 

You’ve selected a team of experts to seamlessly execute your vision, and as the one who will capture it all, I rely on intuition, instinct, and the magic of the present moment to inform my approach. In front of my camera, you’ll find a healthy mix of editorial direction and “hands off” moments with your story at the center of it all. I step back to observe what unfolds, capturing it all through a series of vignettes that show how the day felt–not just how it looked. 

More than anything, I’m on a mission to make you feel at home in front of the camera–and if I had my way, you’d forget it’s even there. It may be hard to imagine now, but a high-touch experience like this allows us to deepen our rapport as your wedding day approaches. 

Through the abundance of emotion, we’ll make photographs that are genuine and uncompromising with discretion, direction, and discernment. 

the lifetime ahead.

Thoughtfully curated, meticulously designed: This is a wedding photography experience driven by joy.

INQUIRE with me

How long have you been photographing weddings? 

I photographed my first wedding in July 2008 and have been hooked ever since!

What’s required to book you as my wedding photographer? 

Once we decide on a collection that best fits your needs, I will send you an online booking proposal to read and review. Signing the contract and a 50% deposit is required to officially book the date.

After the wedding day, how long before we receive our photos?

The highest care is taken to process your images and get them ready for print. The turnaround time is 10 to 12 weeks depending on the season.

 At the end of the day, do we receive our photos as high resolution files? 
Can we print them? 

Yes! You will receive the high-resolution files and a print release to be able to reproduce them at the lab of your choice. Of course, we recommend using a high-quality lab that uses calibrated monitors for the best quality. If you are interested in printing an image larger than 11×14, I recommend emailing me and ordering directly through me. I can do additional retouches and manage the print production to make sure it is perfect!

Do you deliver raw, unedited photos?

I capture my images in RAW, unedited files by my camera, therefore they are large files and are only seen by special software. I work to enhance each image and deliver them in JPEG format that is easily read by standard computer software. I do not deliver raw images.

What equipment do you use? Do you have backup cameras, too (just in case)?

I shoot with Canon equipment – Canon r6 camera bodies and an array of lenses. I bring backup equipment to every wedding.

When will our engagement session happen? And bridal portraits?

My portrait sessions take place Monday through Thursday with some Fridays available. Weekend dates (most often Sundays) can be selected approximately six weeks in advance and include a weekend fee of $250.

How long before we receive the images from our portrait session? 

Three weeks from the portrait session date.
