What It’s Like to Work With Us
Let's get into it.
Laid-back, Organized, & 100% Focused on You
You deserve to be fully present on your wedding day — not worrying about where to put your hands or if the timeline’s off. That’s where I come in.
From our first call to final gallery delivery, I’m here to make the experience effortless, joyful, and tailored to your day.
Before the Wedding Day
On the Day
Afterward
We’ll get to know each other (I love a good FaceTime chat!) and dive into what matters most to you — the people, the moments, the vibe. I’ll help build a photo-friendly timeline, share tips to help you feel at ease in front of the camera, and be your go-to guide for anything you need along the way.
Think of me as part fly-on-the-wall, part hype woman. I’ll gently guide you through portraits while keeping things relaxed and natural, then blend into the background so I can catch the real stuff — the happy tears, stolen glances, and unexpected laughter that make your day truly yours.
Within a few days, you’ll get sneak peeks to relive the magic right away. Then comes your full gallery — packed with the big moments, the tiny in-betweens, and everything in between. Photos that feel like memories, not just poses.

HOW DO YOU KEEP OUR PHOTO'S& video's SAFE?
On your wedding day, I dual-write my cards on two SD cards for each camera I use ( i use multiple cameras) and then I immediately back up the cards to my hard drives. Hard drives are kept in a fire safe box.
It’s a blend of documentary and elegant editorial. Think natural moments, gentle posing, and timeless edits.
