The Experience Begins Long Before Your Wedding Day,

and starts with your brave decision to center your day around intentionality.

 
 
 
 
 

Give yourself permission to plan a wedding experience that fills you and your partner with joy and excitement and feels true to your story together.


Allow yourselves space to be different, think different, and create something special that celebrates you.


 
 

In my experience, taking a step back from conventional wedding planning is an integral part in creating an original, intention-filled, and experience-oriented wedding day.


Ask yourselves questions like:

What do we love to do together?

Is there a location that is special and influential to us?

Do we want to have a completely new experience together?


 
 

When couples step away from the confining nature of a traditional wedding, a whole world of possibilities opens up,

your wedding day suddenly becomes yours.


 
 

When You Choose an Experience-Oriented Wedding Day,

you’re allowing space for sincere + vulnerable storytelling, space for co-creating a distinctive + individualized wedding day, and space to honor mutual trust.

  • A wedding day is one of the most intimate and emotional days for a couple, and it’s truly an honor to be invited into this space with them.

    I specialize in a documentary-inspired, storytelling style of photography with a strong emphasis on capturing moments that inspire feeling and incorporate the natural landscape.

  • I am here to walk with you through your planning journey. To be as involved as you’d like, to give professional insight, and assist in logistics.

    When we work together to co-create your wedding day, I not only have a clear understanding of your wedding vision, but I am better able to document you and your partner in a genuine and authentic way.

  • Choosing to create an intention-filled wedding day means that you are dedicated to immersing yourselves into the moments of your day. You don’t want to be stressing about what comes next or what happens if it rains.

    Instead, you have chosen to put your full trust into your hand-picked wedding vendors to bring your day and vision to life. You trust them completely and trust the creative vision they have for your day. You know they will take care of you.

 
 

The Next Steps

 

Begin Planning + Gain Inspiration

Take your time discovering what inspires you and your partner. Think closely about what kind of experience you want to share on your wedding day.



We Make it Official

After a consultation phone call, if I’m your girl, I’ll send over your digital agreement and invoicing. I require a 50% retainer to get you officially booked. Easy peasy!



You Have The Best Day Ever

After spending months finalizing your wedding plans, you immerse yourselves completely into the moments of your day. Relaxing and enjoying!



You Relive The Experience

You relive your wedding experience over and over again through your finished, digital images or perhaps even through a printed heirloom album.

What Will Your Day Look Like?


Our time together won’t be like any other photo experience you’ve had before

I specialize in a documentary, storytelling style of photography. There’s no stress of needing to pose a specific way for hours on end. In fact, I encourage freedom and candid movement throughout our time together. I also encourage my couples to fill their day with intentionally crafted activities that they enjoy doing together.

I want you to be comfortable and confident throughout our time and do what feels most like you.  

 
 

I aim to foster a sense of never-ending exploration for my couples

I encourage authentic adventuring and want my couples to experience a landscape + location that speaks to them. I feel strongly that choosing the perfect wedding location is closely intertwined to the experience a couple is looking to create.

Because of this, the landscape + location my couple’s choose become an innate part of my work.

My work is closely intertwined with capturing the couple within this landscape while highlighting the natural features that make the landscape unique.

Getting to work so closely with each of my couples is beyond inspiring for me

and my best work comes when they trust me completely to capture their story
