YUP. Me, a wedding photographer, just said your day isn't about photos.
It's about embracing the genuine moments and experiences that make your celebration truly special. While beautiful photographs are undoubtedly treasured, the true essence of your wedding lies in the heartfelt connections, joyful interactions, and shared memories with your loved ones.
By allowing you to be fully present in the moment, you can authentically experience the emotions, laughter, and tears of joy that define your day. I'm here to capture the genuine interactions, spontaneous laughter, and heartfelt exchanges, rather than getting caught up in creating a picture-perfect image.
My priority is to create lasting memories that go beyond the surface-level aesthetics, capturing the true essence of your love and the love shared with those closest to you.
YOUR WEDDING DAY ISN'T ABOUT GETTING THE PERFECT PHOTO
because your story is more than just a pretty photo on instagram
My passion lies in prioritizing your experience over solely focusing on capturing those *perfect* photos. I value the connection and trust built between us, which allows my role to extend beyond simply documenting the event. I aim to be a calming presence, offering support, guidance, and reassurance throughout the day. By fostering a relaxed and comfortable environment, it encourages authentic interactions and emotions to naturally unfold.
Recognizing that a wedding day is a culmination of love, joy, and cherished moments, I strive to create an atmosphere where you and your loved ones can fully immerse themselves in the celebration.
Which allows your photos to be heavily inspired by the elegant authenticity of film photography in the way that I aim to show you two as you, not a fictional version of yourself. My goal will forever be to allow your story to be played out in the photographs I deliver, as they are more than just photos - but captured moments that will last a lifetime.
MY APPROACH IS BIT DIFFERENT
While I heavily believe that your wedding day isn't about photos + shouldn't be centered around getting the perfect shot - that doesn't mean that I will have a documentary approach for the entire day. I'm sure having wedding portraits of you two on your wedding day is something that is important to you. While I have a documentary approach for the rest of your day - if you two would still like some direction during our time to do portraits, I will gladly provide that.
I like to describe my photography style as a mix of documentary, editorial, and classic. Directed when needed, documentary when not.
WHAT MY APPROACH MEANS WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR PHOTOS
Once you send in your inquiry, I'll reach out and chat about your vision for your wedding day as well as ask a few more questions about you and your boo. Once things are rolling, we'll get you set up for your discovery call where we can get to know each other a bit more + go over my pricing guide together.
You're ready to have me capture your love & I'm so dang excited about it. We'll go over the details one more time, I'll send you your contract to sign & you can pay the $1500 retainer fee. Once that's all squared away we'll get onto the fun stuff.
This is what you've been waiting for. I'll show up excited and ready to shoot your day - without missing a beat. Let go of all the planning you've been doing over the last few months and enjoy your day. I'll blend in to capture all of the memories.
My goal will always be to be more like your friend rather than another vendor on your wedding day. These months before your wedding day I will be here to build a relationship and get to know each other before your wedding day.
We'll set up a perfect time + place for your engagement photos! This is a perfect time for us to not only capture this chapter of your story, but to get to know each other even better! We'll then spend this time before your wedding day nailing down all the details! I'll also be in touch with your planner and other vendors during this time to make sure everything is squared away prior.
It's time to relive your big day all over again! I know you can't wait so I'll send you a small gallery of photos a couple of days after your wedding. Then 8 weeks later, grab some wine and get cosy because here's the final unveiling.

Every story is different and no two stories will every be captured identically. Your day is about your two and your love, and that's what the photos that you have back on should show.
The small unseen moments, brushing each others hair out of their face, the interactions with family members, the shoes left on the dance floor, the half eaten cake on the table. All the moments that document your day but may not be "instagram worthy" are what I'm after capturing. No moment left behind.

I take on a very limited amount of weddings, elopements, and sessions in a year. I do this because I know that if I pack on loads of weddings + sessions - my couples won't be getting the best of me.
As I said above, I view my couples as friends rather than clients and I want to be there for them for whenever they need me. In the upcoming years I'm only taking up to 18 weddings total.

& beyond
from start
since we're going to be friends for life after your day, i will forever say yes to photographing your biggest chapters of your life. While i don't advertise that i do maternity or family sessions - i love them, and will always do them for my past couples.
I get how stressful planning a wedding or a photography session can be, that is why I'm here from start to finish (and beyond). rather that is finding your dream venue, planning your timeline for the day, or anything in between - whatever you need help with, I'm your girl.
I'll arrive bright and early to get set up and say hi before I start shooting. I want to make sure that everyone (especially you) is 100% comfortable and pumped for the day ahead.
Throughout your day, I’ll be weaving in and out to make sure I catch every precious moment, including moments that went unseen. that quick kiss at the dinner table or tucking that loose strand of hair behind your ear. All the moments that make your heart flutter.
I’ll be the chameleon you want me to be – whether you want me to be the ringmaster herding everyone up for a shot, or to sneak around in the background, capturing all the natural, candid moments. no cheesiness or cringy, forced poses here!
Every wedding day is different, which means I'll adapt to your day to be sure I capture every last memory perfectly.
