PROCESS & PRICING

authentic + intentional storytelling

Your wedding day is a vulnerable experience and so is getting photographed. This is why making you feel comfortable and present is a top priority for me. The value of getting to know each other is unmatched, so that when it comes time for the photos, you’re not thinking about how you look or if you’re being awkward in front of me. Instead you’ll be able to enjoy the moment, and leave the experience with photos of you guys looking your best

This isn’t my first rodeo, and having someone who understands the ebbs and flow of a wedding day, while maintaining attention to detail, is important. With 100+ weddings under my belt, I've seen weddings go a hundred different ways, and I'm prepared for all sorts of situations.

Your needs are my priority. I’m not here to put you in a box. I’m here to find out what you guys are all about and help bring that vision to life. Let’s get on a call, chat about your values and create an experience that is an honest reflection of you.

Here to help guide you
to your best day

it really is the little things

 Frequently Asked Questions

01

Where are you based?

Based along the Northern California coast and I split my time between Santa Cruz, Mendocino, and the Sierras :) 

02

How long have you been photographing weddings?

I shot my first wedding when I was in high school, and haven't stopped since! Over the last 14 years I've documented over 200 +  celebrations. 

03

Help! We are awkward in front of the camera! 

I'll let you in on a secret - WE ALL ARE. Every couple you see shown in these photos shared same fears. Unless you are a model, the experience of being in front of the camera is foreign to all of us I'm here to make it chill and even a fun process for you. 

Also, if you're feeling a lil anxious, I recommend booking an engagement session to ease the nerves so you feel like a pro by your wedding day :) 

04

Do you offer film coverage?

Yes! I learned photography on film and developing prints in the dark room at the beginning of my journey. I currently offer 35 mm film & polaroid coverage for clients.

05

How do we book you?

I work as a first-come first-serve basis, meaning a 50% retainer paid and contract signed secures your date.
