Why hire me?

When you decide I am the one for you, I will send you a questioner that will help me get to know the details about you both individually and as a couple, your dream day, and what makes you special. We will meet to chat over coffee, drinks, or even Zoom if you’d prefer to discuss it all.

On the day of the shoot: Being photographed may be daunting to some while others were born to be models. Usually couples can be a mix of both or lean one way or another! My goal is to make you feel as comfortable as possible in front of the camera. We start off with some warm ups while I give you a few tasks or prompts while the camera is clicking, just to get you used to it. Usually I am playing music to hype things up too if the setting allows for it too! I am more of a candid photographer. I like to capture the authentic moments you share together as a couple. My goal is for you to look back at your gallery and say “I remember this exact moment” and be able to cherish it for a lifetime. I will give a couple of poses here and there, but I do not like things to look staged. I try to be more hands off, but will still guide you through different prompts and tasks!

On the wedding day, think of me more as a fly on the wall. I promise, I am capturing all of the moments! Of course, wedding photos are important, but I do want you to spend your day enjoying it. We will work quickly yet efficiently for your portraits (you will love them) and we will make the most of the best spots for photos at your venue. Because of course, we will be sure to create some amazing pictures that are Instagram-worthy! I would be honored to document your special day.

Throughout the planning, we will meet a couple of times just to keep the line of communication open. I am always here to answer any questions you may have, so don’t be afraid to ask me anything. You can share any fears or concerns, any photos you may want to try to re-create; we are in this to create together.

Together, we’ll produce images that reflect your essence, ensuring every moment feels effortless and joyous. At the end of it all, you will not only have a gallery full of beautiful memories, but also a new friend!

I know hiring a photographer is an investment, but please know I am fully invested in you, too. I went into photography to make connections, capture moments of authenticity, and truly make people happy. I hope I am someone you would like to have as part of your day!

I’m sure you have seen hundreds of different websites by now, so why hire me? Hiring me as your wedding photographer means inviting someone who views your love story as a canvas for authentic moments. My background in broadcast journalism adds a storytelling flair to each shot, capturing not just smiles but those fleeting glances and playful interactions. While many photographers take pretty pictures, I create a fun atmosphere where you can be yourselves. I genuinely care about getting to know you as the couple and letting your story and your unique touches shine through in every image. My goal with this page is for you to say “yes” or “no.”
