The Experience

I believe that your images should look and feel exactly like you, as if you stepped out of your photographs into real life. 


And since it’s not every day that we are subjects of professional photos, much less a wedding, I aim to create a relaxed, stress-free and fun experience from start to finish.

First and foremost: hire her. You won’t regret it.

The experience from start to finish was better than I could’ve ever hoped for. She is the most positive, friendly, fun, sunshine-y, encouraging, and easy going person to work with. My family is not normally comfortable in front of a camera, but all of our photos came out looking SO natural and genuine. She really captured us as who we are, and now we have snapshots of these special memories to enjoy forever!

My Approach


I specialize in capturing real and candid moments that show off the personalities of my subjects, in locations that feel important and special to them. 


With a calm and relaxed documentary-style approach that focuses on your relationship and interactions with each other and your guests, my goal is to create natural, vibrant and true to color images that reflect the candidly joyous and connected moments of your wedding, event or elopement.


Together, we'll plan your day from image inspiration to timeline, shotlist and more. 


Balancing between giving direction as needed and blending in with the crowd, I take care to be unobtrusive while present enough to capture the full story of your day and allowing you to fully live in the moment.
