First of all, just because you have a friend/family member with a nice camera, that doesn’t mean they can take nice photos for you! There is more to taking a good photo than having the right equipment. It is similar to how a professional chef can take the same ingredients as I can, but create […]
photo credit to Hannah Maria Photo My cousin Alex got married this month! The first of my generation to do so, the whole family was super excited. My mom’s side of the family are all in different states ( and going to med school lmao), but growing up the aunts and uncles made it clear […]
I dabbled in photography in high school, and then really committed to the business in 2017. I’m so lucky that 2018 was just as amazing, and I’m excited to pull back the curtain and share my 2nd ever BTS post <3 This year has been amazing and as I look back through these images, I […]

Please please please ask your guests to turn off their phones during your wedding day. You’ll want to see their faces, not their iPhones. You can make this request somewhere on your wedding website, you can have a sign reminding guests near the ceremony space, and/or the person who asks guests to take their seats […]
I truly love Denae. I photographed her wedding in October (click HERE to relive that magic) and the whole time she’s been so genuine and sweet and funny. Denae reached out to me recently and asked me if I took professional headshots. I do not usually do that type of photography, but I decided to […]
“We know you would be here today if heaven wasn’t so far away.” On a wedding day, the absence of someone who would’ve loved to be there reminds you of their legacy. It can be truly beautiful to incorporate them into your special day as a tribute to how they touched your life. 1. Display […]
