This should feel easy and stress free.

The kind of experience where you can let go, be yourselves, and actually enjoy being in the moment.

I’ll guide you when you need it, give you space when you don’t, and make sure the whole process feels natural from beginning to end.

No pressure. No perfection. Just you, your people, and a little time to slow down and take it all in.

I can’t wait to be part of it.

Jenell is seriously amazing! After she did our engagement photos, I knew right away I wanted her to photograph our wedding too. She made us feel so comfortable and everything just felt easy and natural, which made the whole experience so much fun. And of course, we absolutely loved our photos! She’s not only incredibly talented, but she’s also just such a sweet and genuine person. I’m so thankful she got to be part of such a special time in our lives, and I already know we’ll be coming back to her for future photos. I can’t recommend her enough!

My approach is simple: I know when to step in and when to step back.
When beautiful light and a little direction can make a portrait stronger, I'll take the lead.
I value you, your time, and the story you’re trusting me to tell.
More than anything, I want you to feel comfortable enough to forget there’s a camera in the room.
My approach is candid and connection-driven. I’ll give you a little direction when you need it, but mostly, I want to let you be yourselves—the way you naturally laugh, love, and move through the world together.

I hope you leave our time together just as excited as I am to see what we created.
I put thought into every photograph—not just to give you beautiful images, but to give you something that feels worth holding onto.
Your wedding gallery will be delivered within 6 weeks, and I’ll keep you in the loop along the way. And yes, there will absolutely be sneak peeks. 
I’m not exactly known for being stingy with photos.
If it’s sweet, funny, beautiful, emotional, or makes me think, oh my gosh, look at them—you’re getting it.
Depending on your wedding, you can expect around 500 - 800+ photographs.

These might be my favorite questions.
Wear something you feel beautiful and comfortable in. Something you can move in. Something that feels like you.
Because I don’t want you to spend our time together wondering what to do with your hands or trying to hold a pose that doesn’t feel like you.
We’ll move. We’ll laugh. We’ll wander. I’ll give you just enough direction to keep things natural, while leaving plenty of room for the moments that happen on their own.
And if you need help choosing an outfit, finding a location, dreaming up a concept, or figuring out how to make that idea in your head actually happen—
I’m here to help.
Bring me the crazy ideas.
I want to hear them all.

I require a deposit when we pick a date to secure your wedding date. I know life—and budgets—can look different for everyone, so I’m happy to be flexible and offer payment plans when needed. My goal is for working together to feel exciting, not stressful.
The remaining balance is simply due on the 30 days out from your wedding date. 
Easy, flexible, and one less thing to worry about.

Take me with you.
I’m always up for a little adventure and will travel wherever your story takes us.
Destination sessions are welcome, with travel fees included. So whether it’s somewhere familiar or somewhere neither of us has been before, I’m in.

Unfortunately, I don’t offer RAW photos.
A lot of time, thought, and care goes into editing each image. Editing can completely transform the mood and feeling of a photograph, and it’s a really important part of my creative process.
For me, handing over a RAW image would feel like giving you an unfinished piece of my art.
I want you to receive the photograph exactly as I intended it to be.

If you need to reschedule, your deposit can be applied toward a new date as long as we reschedule within 30 days.
Life happens. Plans change. It’s all part of your authentic life.
All I ask is that you give me as much notice as possible. That way, I can open your original date back up for someone else while we find a new date that works for you.
No hard feelings, no stress. I’d still absolutely love to work with you.
