You're engaged. It's an exciting season that also comes with countless decisions and no shortage of opinions.
I understand how quickly it can all start to feel overwhelming.
Before anything else, I want you to know this. I don't see myself as another item on your wedding checklist. My goal is to get to know you, understand what matters most to you, and be a meaningful part of this experience from beginning to end.
The moments that draw me in are often the ones no one plans for. The glance across the room. The squeeze of a hand. The tears that arrive unexpectedly. The interactions happening beyond your view while you're fully immersed in the day.
Those are the moments that tell the real story. Those are the memories that become more meaningful with time. And those are the moments I never want you to miss.
Welcome to your wedding.

Online or in person, I want to hear everything. And when I say everything, I mean it. How did you meet? How long have you been together? How was the proposal? I believe in curating my client's experience to each one of them and to do that, I want to learn everything about the two of you.

Before anyone sees you. Before it gets dirty. Before anyone touches it, you should photograph it. You've been waiting your whole life to wear it, photograph it the right way before the big day.
These photos are meant to be intimate, romantic and secret until after the wedding. Just for you.
Your engagement session is the perfect time to connect with me and practice before your wedding. I love connecting with couples for their engagement session when it is possible to do !
15 years covering love stories as if they were my own. Photographing wonderful couples saying I Do. Trends change year after year, but my love for capturing real stories and connection never does.
Here is a collection of my favorite shots during the years. I wish I could include them all!
