My process

From our very first conversation to the moment your gallery is delivered, my goal is to create an experience that feels effortless, personal, and thoughtfully curated. Every couple and every family I photograph is entrusted to me with moments that cannot be recreated, and I consider that an incredible privilege. The most meaningful photographs are created through trust and connection. I want to know what matters to you, what makes you laugh, the traditions you cherish, and the people who make your world feel like home. The more I understand your story, the more honestly I can preserve it.

Open communication is at the heart of my process. I'm here to guide you, answer every question, celebrate alongside you, and ensure you feel completely at ease every step of the way. So let's meet over coffee, swap stories about our dogs, dream up something beautiful together, and discover if we're the perfect fit. My hope is that by the end of your experience, you'll leave with more than timeless photographs. You'll leave feeling genuinely known, cared for, and excited to invite me back to document every season that follows.

How would you describe your photography style?

I photograph with intention, creating images that feel timeless, honest, and deeply personal. Every frame is thoughtfully composed, yet never forced. Some of my favorite photographs are the ones that embrace movement, film grain, or a touch of blur, because they preserve a feeling just as much as they preserve a memory.

Above all, I want your photographs to feel like you. Beautifully crafted, emotionally rich, and timeless enough to become treasured heirlooms for generations to come.

What is your turnaround time for sessions and weddings?

Wedding galleries are thoughtfully edited and delivered within 12 weeks of your wedding day, while portrait sessions are delivered within 5 weeks of your session.

Every gallery is carefully curated and edited by hand. I take great care in crafting a collection that tells your story with intention, ensuring each photograph receives the time and attention it deserves.

What is your backup process for keeping our photos safe?

Your memories are truly irreplaceable, and protecting them is one of my highest priorities.

From the moment I begin photographing your session or wedding, every image is recorded simultaneously to two memory cards in my camera. As soon as I arrive home, your photographs are immediately backed up to multiple separate hard drives.

That means your images exist in a variety of different places before I ever begin editing, giving you complete peace of mind that your memories are protected every step of the way.

My partner and I feel awkward in front of the camera. Will you pose us?

The truth is, you don’t need to know how to pose or worry about what to do with your hands. That’s my job. I’ll gently guide you with natural prompts and thoughtful direction while creating space for the moments that can’t be planned. Rather than focusing on perfect poses, I focus on genuine connection, effortless movement, and the little interactions that make your relationship uniquely yours.

Do you offer payment plans?

Absolutely. I believe investing in your memories should feel exciting, not overwhelming.

To make the process as seamless as possible, I offer flexible payment plans for all wedding collections. Most couples choose to divide their investment into three payments: a retainer is due at the time of booking, the second payment is due six months later, and the remaining balance is due one month before your wedding day.

If you need a payment schedule that’s a little different, don’t hesitate to ask. I’m always happy to create a plan that works best for you.
