Why is wedding photography important? 

Your photos (and maybe your dress) are the only things from your wedding that will outlive you. One of my favorite things about being a photographer is imagining my images being shown to future generations.

The photographer is the only vendor that spends the entire day with you, so it's crucial that you hire someone who has the same vision as you and your partner. Whether that's me or someone else, please find someone that makes you feel comfortable and understood. 

How would you define your style?

While my style continually evolves, three recurring elements emerge throughout my body of work: texture, joy, and color.

Moments can unfold naturally, and I capture them honestly as they happen. I also believe that much of a photographer's success depends on real interactions. The more comfortable you feel around me, the more natural your photographs will be! 

How many weddings/sessions do you shoot a year? How long have you been in business? 

I photograph 12 weddings a year, and I've been in business for fifteen years.

Do you recommend that the bride and groom see each other before the ceremony?

First looks are great, but I'm more concerned about what's right for the couple. If you feel compelled to wait to see the love of your life, no big deal—there are other options. You will just have to make time for family and friend portraits after your ceremony.

I'm uncomfortable in front of the camera. Can you help me with that?

Well, you're in luck! One of the most significant parts of my job is helping you feel comfortable. If you read my Google reviews, you will see a recurring theme. I love easing people into the creative process. Whether that's grabbing a cocktail beforehand or taking photos at your favorite places, we will find ways to make you comfortable and feel beautiful. 

How does the album design process work?

I will have you select your favorite images via your online gallery, and then I will design the first draft of your album. You will have the chance to make one round of edits through an online proofing system. We will go back and forth with the design until you love it! 

What is your favorite part of the wedding day?

Without fail, I get a little teary-eyed during speeches. I love hearing the stories of your past and learning about what makes you unique as a couple. I also love dancing with all your guests which is how I get those epic dance shots!
