—The Wedding Photography Experience—
You’ve got the wedding date. The venue. The Pinterest board that started “simple” and somehow became a full-time job. And hopefully, you’ve locked down the fiancé too. Now comes one of the biggest decisions of the whole process: choosing a wedding photographer who actually gets you.
Not just someone who shows up with a camera and says “now look at each other and laugh” every five minutes like a malfunctioning NPC. You deserve someone who can tell the story of your wedding day the way it actually felt. The shaky deep breath before you walk down the aisle. The death grip on each other’s hands during the vows. Your drunk aunt absolutely dominating the dance floor to early 2000s emo music. (No shade… she’s actually my spirit animal.) The quiet little in-between moments you didn’t even realize were happening. That’s the stuff I live for.
My style is documentary, emotional, and real as hell. I’m not about stiff posing or turning your wedding into an 8-hour photoshoot. I want your photos to feel like memories, not performance art. The goal is for you to look back at your gallery and immediately feel everything all over again, the nerves, the chaos, the laughter, the love, all of it.
And honestly? A good wedding photographer does way more than just take pictures. On your wedding day, I become part photographer, part dress fluffer, part therapist, part professional problem solver, and part tiny emergency response team. I’ll fix your veil, carry your bouquet, pin boutonnieres because apparently those things were designed by Satan himself, hype you up when the nerves hit, and somehow keep the timeline moving without making the day feel rushed. Wedding chaos doesn’t scare me. I was basically built for it.
I work best with couples who are doing things their own way. The rule-breakers. The non-traditional weddings. The backyard parties with tacos and tattoo artists. The mountaintop elopements where everyone cries because the wind is aggressively emotional. The couples wearing black wedding dresses, leather jackets, combat boots, or whatever makes them feel most like themselves.
Because your wedding shouldn’t feel like a performance for other people. It should feel like you. Loud, emotional, weird, beautiful, chaotic, intimate, wildly fun… whatever your version of love looks like. And I’ll be there documenting all of it, the big moments, the quiet ones, and all the beautifully unhinged in-between stuff that ends up meaning the most later.
But What If We’re Super Awkward?
Listen, basically every couple shows up saying some version of: “We’re awkward as hell in photos.” And honestly? Perfect. Those are usually my favorite people to photograph.
That’s exactly why engagement sessions are included in most wedding packages. It’s not just about getting pretty photos for your save-the-dates. It’s about getting comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day rolls around. No timeline stress. No 87 people watching you kiss. Just hanging out together while I turn the chaos into art.
And don’t worry, I’m not going to stand you in a field and tell you to “smile at each other lovingly” for two hours like a weird stock photo. My approach is way more movement-based. I’ll have you walking, joking around, probably roasting each other a little, and doing prompts that feel more like a chaotic mix of Charades and Twister than stiff posing. Somehow, it works ridiculously well and ends with photos that actually look like you.
Also, full disclosure: I hate being in front of a camera too. There are deeply unfortunate photos of me floating around this world that I hope never see daylight again. So I get it. That’s a huge part of why I shoot the way I do. I’m not trying to make you look “perfect.” I want you to see yourselves the way the people who love you see you, connected, real, emotional, awkward in the best way, and hot without trying too hard.
Planning for the Big Day
Months before your wedding, we’ll go over everything, timelines, family photo lists, all the little details. Yes, I said it: family formals. I know they’re not the most exciting part of the day, but they matter to your family, so we’ll knock them out quickly and painlessly (and only include the people you actually want in them).
More importantly, we’ll talk about what matters most to you. Are you all about the epic dance floor moments? The quiet, emotional exchanges? That ridiculous cousin who will perform a dramatic Electric Slide solo? (We all have one. Just embrace it.) Whatever it is, I’ll make sure it gets documented, so you have the memories to relive over and over again.
Wedding packages start at $4900, with an option to add a second photographer for even more coverage. Most couples spend $5900 for the 8 hour package.
If a big wedding isn’t your thing, elopement packages start at $3000 because your love story doesn’t need a crowd to be meaningful.
At the end of the day, you’re not just hiring me to take photos, you’re hiring me to create art that tells your story. My goal is to give you something that belongs in your home. Photos that don’t just sit on a hard drive, but hang on your walls, live in an album, and get flipped through on anniversaries, with your future kids or grandkids on your lap.
So, let’s do this. Let’s capture your day exactly as it felt. Because when the flowers dry up, the dress gets stored away, and the last song fades out, these are the moments that will last forever.
