WEDDING DAY
This is what I’m all about..
If you’ve glanced at my about page, you know that I am passionate about telling the story of my clients. I’m the photographer for the couple who wants to fully present on their wedding day, and receive a gallery of images that allow them to live those memories, again and again. I want our time together to be fun, relaxed, adventurous, and authentic. I’m here to capture who you love, why you love, and how you love your friends, family, and most importantly, each other.
A few different services that my previous couples have added to their photo package are:
-
rehearsal dinner coverage
-
engagement photos
-
bridal sessions
-
albums
-
photos during post wedding day brunch
-
honeymoon photo shoot
2025 & 2026 Wedding Season
things you should know
Once your photos are ready to view, I will send the images through an online gallery that you can order prints, share with family and friends, and download directly to your computer.
Every session and wedding package that I offer includes a ‘Print & Personal Rights’ form. This release form states that you have the right to order prints through the printing company of your choice.
The amount of photos you'll receive is an estimate based off the amount of hours you hire me to photograph. I don’t put a cap on the amount of images that I deliver. If there is a good image from your wedding day or session, I want you to have it! You can expect to receive a minimum of 50 images per hour.
I have a handful of incredible second shooters who I rotate through based off availability, as most have their own photography companies.
Engagement sessions takes about 2 weeks to receive.
A wedding 4-8 weeks, depending on the season.
what to expect in your
WEDDING GALLERY
DETAILS & GETTING READY
I want to know the unique details that will help me capture images that reflect your love. I ask all of my couples to have a dedicated spot for all of their details and mementos (example - attire, jewelry, flowers, invites, heirloom, letters) for me to photograph when I first arrive.
Not only is the getting ready portion of the day is a great time for me to start capturing detail shots, but also a great time for me to get shots of moments like - giving gifts to parents, putting on the dress, a toast with your wedding party, or reading a love letter from your partner.
FAMILY & FRIENDS
One of the greatest gifts a wedding day brings, is having so many of your loved ones in one place. I'm here to capture not just the family portraits, but the candid moments between you and the people you love the most.
I also understand that weddings can be an emotional, sometimes stressful experience. I like to be prepared with detailed timelines and family photo lists. This way we can breeze through the family portrait portions of the day, and you can spend more time being present in the moment.
COUPLE'S PORTRAITS
This is a time for you two to be together - no distractions. I will help direct you for the best lighting and background, but most importantly I just want you to spend time in each other's arms, soaking it all in. My goal isn't just to take beautiful photos, but photos that, when you look at them, you remember how it felt to share these moments together.
CEREMONY
Of course you can expect photos of the first kiss, exchanging of the rings, and walking down the aisle. Along with any special moment you may have planned for the ceremony. You can also expect I'll be on the look out for the laughter and the tears from your guests, your family, and wedding party. Most of the ceremony you will be looking at each other - so I aim to take images of the moments you miss in the crowd.
RECEPTION
Along with the speeches, dances, cake cutting, and any other special event you may have planned during the reception, you can expect a variety of detail shots of your tables and decor, and so many candid moments. I strive to capture what it actually felt like to be there in the room, so that you can relive the night again and again.

How Long Have You Photographed Couples?12 years! Born and raised in Missouri, photography allowed me to photograph weddings all across the Midwest from 2010 - 2017. In 2017, I moved from Kansas City to Los Angeles, and have been photographing love on the beach and in the mountains ever since. I have photographed over 400 photo shoots and 300 weddings.

What is Your Turn Around Time?You will receive images from a photo session in 2-3 weeks, weddings in about 5 – 6. I can provide sneak peeks upon request!

Can I Print Photos On My Own?Correct! Every package I offer includes the rights to print and share the images at your leisure. This means once you receive the high res images, you can print, share, and create as many albums as your heart desires. I do offer professional prints and albums that I highly recommend for the best quality – including custom album design and canvas prints.

How Many Hours Do I Get You For?Photo sessions range from 1-2 hours, depending on the location. A wedding day is a minimum of 6 hours. Most of my couples choose the 8-10 hour packages, depending on their specific needs.

How Many Images Will I Receive? Do you give RAW photos?A lot! I deliver all images taken with the exception of duplicate + test photos. There is no cap on the images delivered. If there is a great photo taken, I believe that you deserve to have it. I enhance all images delivered to match my editing style that you see throughout my website. All images are delivered in JPEG format for easy printing! You can expect 60-100 image from an engagement session, and 500-900 image from a wedding.

What If I Am Camera Shy?I completely understand. This is the number one thing I hear from couples! I promise to help direct you in the best lighting and flattering angles, but my true aim is to capture your relationship, the way you interact, and the love you both share together. No need to feel like you know exactly what you’re doing, I'll help you along the way. Just relax, enjoy the process, be in the moment, and we will create some beautiful photos together.
