Since you’re here, I’m guessing you’re not super stoked about a traditional, large church wedding. And honestly, I don’t blame you. They always felt a little stuffy and performative for my liking (but no shame if that’s what you’re into!).
Personally, I’m obsessed with small, intimate weddings and elopements. Why? Because I had one of my own and it was the coolest, most “us” thing my husband and I could’ve done. And I want to support as many couples as I can in experiencing that same level of magic.
It’s about what you do with it, ya know??
My origin story isn’t your classic, “I found my mom’s old dusty camera one day and never looked back.” It’s more like, “I fell in love with love and that led me to photography and THEN I never looked back.” But let me rewind real quick.
Like every little girl ever, I was asked to be the flower girl at a family member’s wedding. I distinctly remember hating the way the scratchy fabric felt on my skin and wondering why the heck I had to wear it anyway. I couldn’t wait for the wedding to be over and change back into something comfy (and yes, this is still my line of thinking).
But the moment I walked down the aisle and began tossing petals left and right, I was hooked. The teary eyes. The oohs and aahs. The love you could feel in the air! It was like a real-life rom-com only better.
After that, I completely forgot about the dress and focused fully on getting down on the dance floor until my parents drug me out of the reception.
A decade or so later, I photographed my first wedding. And those feelings of excitement, love, and endless possibilities came rushing right back. I knew, with perfect clarity, that this was what I was made for.
Also yes—I did get a degree in photography which 100% helped me refine and elevate my technical skills. But that first wedding truly set the tone for my career. And if you ask nicely enough, I’d stand in as flower girl on your big day (with a camera for a bouquet).

Bigger Isn’t Always Better
oh my quad. these are my people.
Let me paint the

picture for you:
This could be you! Except you don’t have to eat pancakes or pizza or hike a mountain or do anything you don’t want to do. That’s the point—you deserve a day (or days) crafted around whatever it is that makes you two tick.
Sold! Let’s Plan It!
- It was 120 degrees and we got married outside (thank you clinical deodorant)
- We said “I do” on Wednesday morning and followed up the intimate ceremony with breakfast (because pancakes are life)
- On Saturday, we had a backyard wedding with our closest family and friends because we wanted them to be able to celebrate with us (there was pizza, wings, cheesecake, and personal vows—it was incredibly cheesy, cute, and totally us)
- To finish off our wedding week, we headed to the mountains just the two of us and spent a few days in newlywed, adventurous bliss (fresh air and a fresh spouse?
Nothing better)

My Vibe and Philosophy
So you know what you’re getting into
How I Photograph → I approach each session with a movie mindset. Meaning that I ask myself, “If this were a movie, how would this play out? How can I tell the entire story of their love from hand gestures and hugs to belly laughs and playful banter?” With that in mind, I make sure to always be the one moving and finding the right angles and lighting so that you can simply BE.
How I Edit → My images are inspired by film photography, so they’re always true-to-life skin tones with a subtle touch of warmth. And I’ll never morph your body or change the way you look. I’m all about highlighting what makes you YOU and keeping it natural (but elevated).
A Few Guarantees
From me to you
- You will feel seen, loved, and celebrated your entire day (or days!)
- We’ll spend plenty of time getting to know each other leading up to your wedding so that you feel ultra comfortable on the day of—and can be 100% yourselves
- I’ll connect you with the best vendors to complete your perfect day.
- You’re going to laugh…a lot.
- No detail will go unmissed. I’ll tuck back your hair. Clasp loose shoes. Move random things out of the background. And ensure you can be fully present while I handle the rest.
