Wedding days move quickly, but the moments they hold last far beyond the day itself.
My approach is to document the day as it naturally unfolds capturing the emotion, connection, and in-between moments that make your story yours.

Details are important!
Detail shots at a wedding immortalize the intricate elements and thoughtful nuances, weaving together a narrative that enriches the story of the day, preserving memories that might otherwise fade.
Getting Ready
Getting ready is where the day begins to feel real, a mix of anticipation, quiet moments, and shared excitement. It’s the laughter with friends, the final touches, and the small in-between moments that often go unnoticed. These are the moments that set the tone for everything that follows, and they deserve to be remembered just as much as the ceremony itself.
First Looks & Moments
First looks and moments are often some of the most emotional moments of the day. It’s a quiet pause before everything begins, just the two of you, taking it all in. Whether it’s filled with laughter, tears, or a little bit of both, it’s a chance to be present together and share a moment that’s entirely your own.
We Like to have FUN!
Having fun on your wedding day is paramount as it infuses the celebration with infectious energy and genuine joy, creating unforgettable memories for both you and your guests. It allows you to savor every moment, relishing the occasion without stress, and embracing the spontaneity that makes it truly special. Fun radiates through candid moments, vibrant interactions, and carefree laughter, elevating the atmosphere and ensuring that your wedding day is remembered not just for its beauty but for the sheer delight it brought to everyone involved
Ceremony
The ceremony is the heart of the day, where everything becomes real. It’s the walk down the aisle, the exchanged glances, the vows, and the reactions from the people who mean the most to you. These moments unfold quickly, but they hold so much meaning, and capturing them honestly is what allows you to relive them for years to come.
Family Portraits
Family portraits are a chance to pause and bring everyone together, the people who have supported you, celebrated you, and are part of your story. While they’re a bit more guided, I keep them relaxed and efficient so they feel natural and not rushed, while still making sure those important connections are documented.
Wedding Party
Wedding party portraits are where we can loosen up a bit and have some fun. I’ll give just enough direction to keep things looking great, but I also like to keep it light and natural so everyone can relax and enjoy the moment. It’s a mix of classic shots and candid interactions that reflect the energy and personalities of the people standing by your side.
The Couple
Couple portraits are a chance to slow things down and spend a few quiet moments together in the middle of the day. I’ll guide you when needed, but keep things natural and relaxed so it never feels forced. The goal is to capture your connection in a way that feels genuine, not overly posed, just the two of you as you are.
Reception
The reception is where the energy really comes to life, the music, the laughter, and the celebration with the people you love most. From heartfelt speeches to packed dance floors, these moments are full of movement and emotion. My goal is to capture it all as it unfolds, so you can feel that energy every time you look back.
INVESTMENT
While these collections are designed to cover most wedding days, I understand that every situation is different. If you’re working within a specific budget, feel free to reach out, I’m always happy to see if there’s a way to create something that works for you. Everyone deserves to have their day captured in a way that feels thoughtful and meaningful.

FAQ
My films are documentary and storytelling-focused. I capture the day as it naturally unfolds and edit it in a way that reflects the flow, emotion, and energy of your wedding.
Completely normal, most of my couples say this at first. I’ll guide you when needed and keep things relaxed so it never feels forced. The goal is for you to feel comfortable, not posed.
Yes! I use a mix of gentle posing and prompting. I’ll guide you into positions that look good, but also encourage natural movement and interaction so it feels like you.
It depends on your coverage. But I always say a minimum, for example, the 6 hour package comes with 300+ edited images. So at the very minimum you will receive 300 photos but definetly expect more! I'm not going to gate-keep any good moments we capture!
You’ll receive a sneak peek within one week, and your full gallery is delivered within 6–8 weeks.
Yes! I help guide your timeline to make sure everything flows smoothly and there’s enough time for the moments that matter most.

I always come prepared with backup equipment and a plan. Weddings can be unpredictable, but my job is to adapt and make sure your day is documented smoothly.
To reserve your date, a signed contract and retainer or start of a payment plan are required. After that, we’re officially locked in!
I offer 2 ways of paying for these services. The first option is a 50% retainer with the remaining 50% due a month before the wedding. The second option is a payment plan, catered to your financial situation, all payments in the payment plan must be paid in full a month before the wedding.
