YOUR ADVENTUROUS ELOPEMENT & WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
for the free-spirits and nostalgic souls
If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about so much more than just hiring a professional to take your photos - it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your special day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!
This is me: I live and breath Fleetwood Mac and Abba songs (and 70's tunes in general), I'm a new momma to the sweetest boy as of summer '23 and I plan on being the best granola mom I can :D I love to write songs, and sing, and hike, and paint, and yes, take photos. I'm a sucker for nostalgia and believe that the world's colors should be the same shades as vintage NatGeo magazine covers. I also believe that love is one of the most powerful things ever given to us; and that it's so important to live every day like it's your last - because tomorrow is never promised.
​
Working with me will feel like spending time with an old friend who you haven't seen in years, maybe even a lifetime. It will be easy, carefree, warm, and honest. It is wildly important to me that you and your love are comfortable with me. After all, I'll be with you all the way from the pre-wedding jitters to the teary-eyed vows, and all the joyous moments in between. My goal as your photographer (and your friend) will always be ensuring that my presence brings comfort and support to both of you!

I'm not going to show up to your big day and force you into awkward poses. Forced smiles are not my vibe. Instead, I like to take the time to get to know you before your wedding or elopement in order to understand what feels most comfortable and natural for you.
​
If you're more on the shy side and have more of a gentle spirit about you, the crazy, wild photos running around and being tossed in the air might not capture your energy the same way those quiet moments, slow kisses, and gentle twirls would.
The same goes vice versa. If you're loud, adventurous, and goofy with your partner, you'll want to have photos and - more importantly - memories that emulate that.
​
I guess what I'm trying to say is that you want to be able to recognize the people in the photos hanging on your wall. When you're looking through old photo albums with your grandchildren, you'll want to remember the moment as yourself - not the forced version for the sake of the "perfect photo."
​
It's the imperfect moments that make life worthwhile, anyway.

I want to be more than just your photographer - I want to be your friend.
I believe wholeheartedly that friendship is the key to a great experience on your wedding day. It truly does help create a safe and comfortable environment where you can feel at ease in front of my lens.
Many of my couples often say "we're so awkward in front of the camera" before we shoot together - and it's perfectly normal to feel that way!! I feel that way when I'm in front of the camera, too!
But when there is friendship, and when there is familiarity - there is the freedom to just be yourselves. You're not thinking of how you look, you're only thinking of that moment. That space in time together...and that is the memory that you'll look back on. That is the memory I'll capture for you.

When I was a little girl, I used to go through old photo albums - specifically my parents' wedding album. I remember seeing how truly happy and in love they were. Their love and the love of their friends and family shown through every picture. The pride in my father's smile, the gleam in my mother's eyes - all right there in little squares on the pages of this little green book.
​
25 years later and that book is one of the only things they have as proof of that day. Tangible evidence that their love is as strong today as it was back then, and nobody will ever be able to put a price on that. That is what TRUE value is.
​
Getting your pictures taken is not just something to just mark off of a checklist. They're one of the only things that last past the wedding day itself. So who you choose to document your day is extremely important.
You should choose someone who invests in you completely and who understands the importance and the value of these photos. Because they're not really just photos, are they? They're a time capsule for your love.
