experience
this one’s for you
when i photograph you, for a few sweet moments i get to be a journalist simply observing. whether we have a entire day for a wedding, or just a few hours for a session, my job is to see you.
to see things you may not even see. to observe the details and the connections—the textures of your life.
and your job is just to be. to run and play, to cry, to have quiet whispered conversations. to do things you love to do with people you love to be with.
my vision
i love the act of taking photos. i love the slow way of seeing and romanticizing your life.
that’s why i only offer sessions of 1.5 hours or more. i don’t want us to feel rush or stressed. your session should give us enough time to observe and get inspired.
i want to us to take our time, to embrace the weather and embrace the mess—a stress free, rolling with the punches type of experience.
we’ll listen to music, touch grass, get creative & by the end of it become old friends.
my hope is that you shut off your brain and get to feel & have fun. i will prompt & pose & play around to capture you raw & beautiful & care-free.
and when we’re done we’ll have these gorgeous, life-filled moments frozen in time.

THE TALKING PHASE
i send you a questionnaire—feels silly, but it gives me a little insight into who you are & some creative ideas on how to capture you that feel genuine.

NOSTALGIA FOREVER
you get your photos back in a professional gallery + marvel at the art that is your life <3
the process
THE BEST DAY
we create magic and take photos that write your story!
-
You’ll get sneak peeks within 7 days of our session.
The rest of your gallery is guaranteed to be delivered within 3 months (at the longest). This typically only happens during busy season.
If something comes up on my end to change the delivery timeline—I will communicate with you as soon as I can!
-
I LOVE to travel. Everywhere, often. It’s kind of what got me into this in the first place.
While I do charge for sessions over a 30 mile radius from my home town, I am so, so happy to travel for you :)
If you’re planning something at one of the locations on my bucket list I’ll waive the package costs completely and shoot your wedding or session for just the cost of travel!
-
Yes and amen. I am actually so weird when I get my photo taken, and hate the super staged photo look.
I’m constantly working on becoming a better observer than I am a “poser.” I lean heavily on prompts that lend to me documenting you naturally rather than depending on us all to be staged models, deep exhale :)
-
Heck yes.
I offer 35mm black and white and color film as an add-on to any shoot.
I just bought a Super 8 and may be lookin’ at adding Super 8 film as a package or add-on.
-
No, I don’t send RAW images.
-
I edit all the photos that I love.
Typically for a portrait session you can expect somewhere between 300-500 and for a wedding you can expect 750- 1000.
But I don’t promise a photo count, I promise real moments, I promise my best and I promise that I treat each photo as an artistic expression of your beautiful life.
I want whatever photos I send you to reflect that ♡
