Our primary work is weddings, engagements and family sessions. Weddings typically take up our weekends, and engagement sessions and families are usually on weekdays. We love capturing all the natural and even subtle interactions couples and families have with each other, whether it’s the hand lightly on the back, the toddler reaching up to be held, the quick kiss on the side of the head, we love it all!

Doing this for over 12 years has given me a lot of experience and what I think is a big understanding of how to make couples and families comfortable during a session or wedding. I like to combine a lot of fun prompts and actual things you can do or talk about like walking, reminiscing about a past date, practicing a first dance, etc. to give you something to do other than just stand there and smile. I also love to incorporate activities in a portion of sessions when it works out - going to get ice cream , grabbing a drink, having a picnic, etc. Creating ways that natural interactions are occurring can make for the best way to capture some authentic moments and not have to force or overly direct it all. Weddings are already full of those, but during the posing portion we can find ways to make that happen as well!

I take on a limited number of weddings and sessions each year so I can truly invest in my couples and families! I try my best to bring a joyful and friendly energy to every wedding and session I shoot. It happens genuinely because I love my job!! The adrenaline on a wedding day can’t be matched and when I’m chasing a sunset, are you kidding me?? I’m thriving!!

Yes for the right fit! We have family in Austin, TX and Kalamazoo, MI so for inquiries in any of those issues we have very minimum travel fees!

Lots of different price ranges for different couples. I fall in the average range at a $5,000 package. In my entirely biased opinion photography is something that helps you remember every other aspect of the day you’re spending money on, and a portion of the day that experience matters a ton! I don’t think I’m the right fit for every couple, but I would value experience and a good connection with your photographer very highly regardless of who you choose!
