I love photography. SURPRISE! bawahaha I also love traveling (more specifically- road tripping to national parks), being crafty, and trying to convince my husband Paul to go grocery shopping without me. Paul and I met in high school (but we're not high school sweethearts)  and got married in 2021. Together, we enjoy camping, working out, riding bikes, and drawing up DIY renovation plans for our home. But the majority of the time we're playing with our dog, Winston, and binge watching The Office.

why photography?

I got my first camera to photograph landscapes. I went on a five month solo road trip and fell in love with this amazing planet. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography.  

 

I love documenting the real, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos, your absolute spaz dance getting down on the dance floor.

Wedding days happen in the in-between moments!! My aim is to capture those; the moments you had forgotten about but now get to relive forever every time you look at your wedding album. Those, plus the beautiful couple's photos you've dreamt of framing on your wall.

I truly enjoy the experience of photographing a wedding.

From details to dancing, every wedding day is the best wedding day.

"Mid-reception, a friend asked how I knew her. They mistakenly assumed we'd been friends before she became our wedding photographer. She puts so much care into documenting your day as a friend would, and this joy makes her pictures all the more beautiful."
