I can’t imagine a more wonderful place to be a photographer than Utah. The mountains, the city, the Great Salt Lake… All four seasons… Exceptionally good looking people… I grew up in this state. But since I really got into professional photography while I was in Berkeley, California for college, I didn’t get to photograph […]
I love the Bay Area. I moved here a year ago to start college at UC Berkeley and photography has given me an opportunity to get out and explore some of the gorgeous places around. We have beaches and hills and trees and urban architecture and everything else you could possibly want. San Francisco is […]
Congratulations! You’re recently engaged and you’re over the moon. And then you have to start wedding planning, and that may not be as wonderful haha. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming! Having a plan is a great way to make this process as stress-free as possible 🙂 1. Announce & Enjoy I’ve received photography inquiries […]
For sure bring your pets to your photography session! Past couples and seniors have included them in sessions before and it’s always a good time. I love love love your furry friends! And I have no allergies + I’m always down to run around with them. If your dogs don’t require constant attention, they can […]
We can’t control the weather. I usually book up months in advance, so rescheduling your photo session because of rain can be difficult. If it’s an option though, I’m sympathetic! But if it isn’t, don’t worry. As a professional photographer, it’s my job is to make you look good no matter the situation. Running around […]
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 […]
A couple of mine didn’t have a wedding party. I’d never heard of someone doing that before. But the more I thought about it, I loved the idea. I loved it so much that I didn’t have bridesmaids/groomsmen for my own wedding. You don’t need to think about coordinating dresses. Picking friends. Putting them in […]
Every time I photograph a wedding I get inspiration for my own future wedding. I notice what I do and don’t like, what has the biggest impact on how enjoyable the night is, and what seems less necessary. Through wedding experience as a vendor, I developed my own wedding priorities for when I was planning […]
