my approach
Because your photos are probably the only tangible item you'll have after all is said and done, being your photographer is a responsibility I don't take lightly.
There is nothing more fulfilling for me than taking and delivering images that tell your story in a way that brings you back. From the tender touches to the belly laughs- I want you to feel everything all over again. There are definitely some photos from my own wedding album that never fail to bring me to tears, and you deserve the very same.
That being said, I'm not just your photographer, and I don't want to be! If you're expecting someone to show up, shoot, and leave, then I may not be the right choice for you..which is totally fine!
If you're looking for more than just another vendor, for a different kind of experience, you're in the right place.
I want you to know that I'm here for you, and I mean that wholeheartedly. Need help planning? Figuring out your timeline? I'm your girl- which coffee shop do you want to meet at? Feeling overwhelmed and need someone to vent to at 2am? Please reach out, there's a good chance I'm still up. Honestly, nothing you ask will ever be too much because I really do care. My couples mean everything to me. I've been able to develop deep, meaningful friendships with many of my brides and I wouldn't trade that for the world.
On your wedding day I want to capture your genuine connection, not follow a cookie-cutter list of poses; getting to know you and your partner is part of that process. You deserve photographs that represent who you really are as a couple, so when you're in front of my camera you will never be forced into doing anything that doesn't feel like you.
I firmly believe that your wedding day should feel like you as well.
I'm a huge advocate for planning your day with intention. Don't have a first look because everyone is doing it, have one because you want to share a quiet moment alone. Don't have a 100+ person guest list if the thought of it makes you uneasy. Don't plan an elopement if you've been dreaming about a big wedding your whole life.
I don't believe there's a wrong way to get married. At the end of the day, all that matters is you, your partner, and the love you share. So whether you're inviting well over fifty guests, having an intimate backyard wedding, or planning an adventurous elopement- count me in.
If you feel a connection to me and my work then I may be the right photographer for you. Let me buy you coffee or take you to lunch. Tell me all about your favorite bands, what you binge-watch, and what your pets names are (or bring 'em with you!). Tell me about your passions, about how you fell in love with your partner, how the proposal happened.. I can't wait to meet you!!
