Most couples worry they'll spend their wedding day managing the logistics instead of living it. With me, all you have to do is enjoy your day with the people you love. I'll be there to encourage and guide you at every step, from our first call through album delivery, so that nothing catches either of us off guard.

Before your wedding day
From the moment you book, we start building toward your day together. You'll receive planning resources, sample timelines, and preferred vendor recommendations. Closer to your wedding, you'll receive a final questionnaire to shape your timeline and photo list, and then we'll walk through every detail together during our final call. You'll receive your finalized timeline and photo list that same night.
During this time we'll also plan your engagement session, which is a chance to get comfortable working together before the day itself.
...and you won't feel rushed by the timeline. When we all know where to be, it creates room for the day to unfold. The pressure lifts and you can be fully present. In that space I get to do what I love most: witness the moments nobody planned.
Our preparation before the wedding isn't about control...
On your wedding day
I arrive ready to both document your day and actively lead it. My second photographer and I work together so that nothing is missed, from the quiet moments of getting ready to the energy on the dance floor. My goal is simple: to blend into the background for the moments that should unfold naturally, and to step in with calm direction for the ones that benefit from it.
After the celebration
Within 48 hours you'll receive preview images. Your full gallery arrives six to eight weeks after your wedding, with unlimited downloads and personal print rights included. Heirloom albums are collaboratively designed and refined with a professional designer, who works with you every step of the way.
A lasting home for
your memories
Online galleries are beautiful, but an album or piece of wall art keeps your memories alive differently. Your printed artwork is visible every day, and you'll open it up on anniversaries as you tell your wedding day stories. Someday, you will hand your album down to your kids. That's why every collection includes a professionally designed heirloom album as a standard part of the package. It is the place where your wedding day lives, long after your online gallery access ends.
the full story documented
They design coverage from the first quiet moments of getting ready through the last dance. A second photographer is present throughout, covering moments I can't be in two places for. Films of the first dance or toasts accompany the photos. Beautifully designed heirloom albums give them the ability to hold something physical, return to on their anniversaries, and pass down to their children. Custom collections grow to include all of it, reflecting everything that matters most about their day.
Some couples want
the heart of their day, beautifully preserved
Photography is their priority, and they want a gallery that tells the story of their day with complete documentary coverage. Every image is edited individually, with attention to light, moment, and feeling. For these couples, the collection is focused and intentional.
Some couples want
Based on their priorities, couples typically design collections between $5,900 and $7,900. The right collection is the one that reflects what your day means to you and the memories you want to return to.
Wedding Day Coverage
Every collection will be customized around what matters most to you, whether that's a second photographer, a beautifully designed heirloom album, additional coverage, or documentary films of your first dance or toasts.
