I work with couples who take their day seriously and themselves lightly. The ones who built something intentional and then let it get a little unhinged. The ones with a planner, a vision, and absolutely no interest in disappearing for two hours of portraits while their guests drink without them. I collaborate with your vendor team before we're ever in the same room. I protect your timeline like it's my job because it is.
I live a little nomadically, with deep Midwest roots (go Bears) and an unwavering devotion to iced lattes and Diet Coke with lime. I believe in slowing down, staying present, and honoring moments as they naturally unfold. Emotionally steady and creatively feral, here to hold the space so you don’t have to.
I believe love deserves to be documented as it truly is. That means honoring all identities, expressions, and relationships with the same care and intention, always.
i've shot enough weddings to know that the photos are only as good as how the day felt,
I put as much energy into protecting your timeline and keeping you present as I do behind the camera. You're not going to spend hours of your wedding focused on portraits. You're not going to feel like a prop. You're not going to be left guessing how to position yourselves. When you get your gallery you're going to see your actual day, not a version of it that was choreographed for instagram
