I'm so excited that you are interested in choosing me to document your wedding!
Welcome
meet the photographer
I know how meaningful choosing your wedding photographer is — it’s not just about beautiful images, but about trusting someone to capture your day exactly as you’ve imagined it. You want to know your vision will be honored, your story told honestly, and your photographs to feel just as timeless years from now as they do today. Not overly posed. Not trendy. Simply natural, emotional, and true to you.
I was once a bride myself, and as I approach my ten-year wedding anniversary, I know exactly what I treasure most when I look back. While I love the portraits and the thoughtful details, it’s the candid moments — my loved ones laughing, hugging, simply being themselves — that mean the most to me now. Those are the memories that grow more valuable with time, and that understanding shapes how I photograph every wedding.
I planned my own wedding in just six months so my dad could walk me down the aisle and be part of that moment. He’s no longer here, but those photographs allow those memories to live on. That experience deeply influences the way I approach your day — capturing not just how everything looked, but how it felt, so you can return to these moments for years to come.
When you choose me as your photographer, you’re choosing someone who understands the weight and beauty of this decision — and who will document your wedding with care, intention, and heart.

Once you've got your venue and wedding date locked in, the next exciting step is picking your wedding photographer. These are the photos that will keep your wedding day alive in your memories for years to come! That's why I'm really keen on getting to hang out, chat, and learn all about both of you, as well as your dreams for the big day. It's important to me that my approach matches what you're looking for in your wedding journey.
The Process
view next —
Planning a wedding is far from the picture-perfect scenes portrayed in movies. In reality, it can feel incredibly daunting, as the sheer number of decisions can be overwhelming. Throughout my journey, I've curated a collection of my most cherished vendors, those I've had the pleasure of collaborating with in the past. I've witnessed their incredible work firsthand, and they've left a lasting impression on me. This carefully crafted list is designed to simplify your vendor search, making the process of finding the right ones much smoother.
Vendor Recommendations

Every package I offer includes a free engagement session. I highly recommend you take advantage of this opportunity. Even if you've already had proposal photos or someone else has offered to do your engagement photos, I suggest booking a session with me. This session is usually our first in-person meeting, which breaks the ice for the wedding day. It's a chance to see my working style and how I guide poses. This familiarity will make you feel like a pro on your wedding day. Many couples are glad they had an engagement session with me. They feel more comfortable on their big day.

I'm by your side every step of the wedding planning journey. Feel free to reach out via text or email if you need any advice or guidance. Once you're booked, I'll send you a timeline questionnaire. Based on your input, I'll craft a tailored wedding day timeline. Around 3 months before the wedding, I'll share my final wedding questionnaire. Following that, we'll arrange a Zoom call if needed to solidify your timeline, discuss the family shot list, review details from the final questionnaire, and address any questions or concerns you might have before the big day.

Add-ons
Film photography is offered as an add-on for couples who love a more organic, nostalgic look.
Select moments are photographed throughout the wedding day using my grandma’s 35mm film camera, alongside your digital coverage.
Film has a softer feel and natural grain, and is captured with a slower, more intentional approach. Images are limited and thoughtfully curated, then professionally developed and scanned into your final gallery.
- Professionally developed and scanned by a trusted film lab
- 10–15 final images
- 4×6 prints and digital files included in your online wedding gallery
- Delivered within 4–6 weeks
Starting at $450

A Seamless Experience from
Start to Finish
From the very beginning, I believe in complete transparency. When you book with me, there are no hidden fees, no pressure, and no surprises at the end of your experience. What you see is truly what you get.
You’ll receive a private online gallery with your full wedding day — allowing you to relive the moments together, in your own time, and select the images that best tell your story.
I treat every couple the way I would a close friend or family member — with honesty, respect, and genuine care. My goal is to provide a high-quality, seamless experience that feels fun, calm, and thoughtful from the moment you inquire to the day you hold your finished album in your hands — and for years to come.

Sessions also allow you to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you (and even include pets!) While they’re great for save-the-dates, we’ve taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to a few days before the wedding.
