Whether you are looking to hire me for a simple mountain elopement, an intimate wedding at a private resident, or a full day celebration, I will capture your love the way you want to remember it, 20 years from now.
When you first reach out we'll jump on a video call to help me really understand who you are and how you are looking to celebrate your special day. Throughout the planning process, you'll receive multiple questionnaires and resources to better get to know you and help plan the wedding of your dreams!
Ever wish you could pause time, just to soak up all the emotion and connection with those around you? My family sessions provide the opportunity to create and preserve these beautiful memories with your loved ones. Whether it's to capture your kids as they grow, to celebrate an important milestone, or document a carefree family vacation - I've got you covered.
Document the little in between moments as a family, so when it’s calm and quiet, when they have moved out or moved on, you can look back - at the wild, beautiful chaos that once was.

Here are the most frequently asked questions I get. Take a look and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have more!
My fam and I live just down the hill from Lake Tahoe, California. And while most of my weddings are local to California, I am more than willing to hop on a plane and go wherever your love leads! I’m no stranger to traveling and my passport is always up-to-date! Lets gooo!!
Travel fees are based on location. For weddings and sessions within 50 miles, mileage will be charged at $0.65/mile. For weddings and sessions farther than 50 miles, travel costs include mileage, food per diem, and accommodation for a minimum of 2 nights. For weddings father from home, transportation may include flight, rental car, food per diem, and accommodation for a minimum of 2 nights. Going International? My passport is ready, suitcase half-packed, and I'm always down to rough it if that's what you're planning. Let’s go explore!!
I am a documentary style photographer, which means I photograph in order to tell the story. I’m not trying to recreate something someone else has done or follow after the latest editing trend. Instead, I aim to capture images that communicate who you are and show the beauty in your relationship. Images that help you relive the moments you can’t reproduce... moments that are real and honest, filled with meaning and emotion.
Of Course! Most people feel awkward getting their photo taken - I know I do! But, I promise that this will not be like other times. I'll make it easy and guarantee you'll be saying something different once you are done. Photoshoots with me are candid and fun. Forget stiff poses and fake smiles - you'll cuddle, play, and laugh for real.
Oh, I’m so glad you asked this one. While people are the reason I love this job, I do find that my style of shooting and personality jive best with couples that are more adventurous and laid back. My favorite types of couples are those who desire experience over tradition (even though I love some traditions) and who prefer candid, unplanned moments over posed ones. My natural habitat is outside, and I love it when my couples feel at home there. I’m for couples who throw caution to the wind, aren’t afraid to get a little muddy in their fancy clothes and who love to hike. Really, my ideal clients are a lot like me - fun, adventurous and passionate about people and their stories.
My booking process is super easy. Once you inquire with me you can expect to hear back within 24 hours with details about my availability & next steps. In order to officially book your date with me, I require 50% non-refundable payment and a signed contract. Once all that's done, the fun part of planning your wedding begins! Not sure exactly what you need? We'll talk through all of this together.
Always! I'll have a backup camera body, lenses, batteries, hard-drives and I back up the images in camera while shooting. Your wedding images are backed up to two separate hard drives as soon as I get home and your wedding day cards do not get reused until your gallery has been delivered. At all times there are three copies of your wedding day images until you full gallery has been fully edited and delivered.
Great question! My number one piece of advise is to wear what you feel comfortable & confident in. As we near your session, I'll pass along more tips and a Pinterest board I've thrown together of some of the best colors that look good in your location.
Every session and wedding are different and I shoot to capture the day as it unfolds, rather than attempt to force a final number. I don’t promise an exact number or give a cutoff number. On average you can expect to receive approximately 50-75 high-res edited images per hour.
Delivery times for weddings and elopements are 4-6 weeks during slow season (November - March) and 6-8 weeks during busy season (April-October). Lifestyle sessions take a maximum of 4 weeks to land in your inbox. I try to get them back to you as soon as possible, but I always want to make sure they are ready for you to enjoy!
I deliver all high-resolution files in a private online gallery for you to view, download and share. I recommend (really I insist) that you download and back up your photos right away! And go print some of those babies and get them on the wall! You will have access to a personal print shop to order heirloom quality prints and albums
YES, and I love doing them! There are so many brands, businesses and non-profits out there doing amazing things and I love the chance to work with others! Shoot me an email if you are interested in connecting!
For us to even get to that point I would have to be in the hospital or having a family emergency/death. Heaven forbid something comes up that prevents me from being at your wedding, a highly trained professional wedding photographer from my inner community of photographers I trust with my business (and have worked with in the past) would take my place and shoot your wedding for me. I would still handle all of the culling, editing and image delivery.
I will shoot both if you want! I shoot digital for all of my weddings, but if you want to add film in (which I think you should) then I'll order some rolls! Your film will be processed, scanned, corrected, and delivered digitally.
I select and edit all final images for color, exposure, composition and style. I’m not into “skinny editing” and extensive image processing because I believe you and your story are perfect the way you are! Don’t worry though…when it comes to minor blemishes (like a pimple or a temporary scar), I’m happy to brush it out of the photos.
This depends largely on how you envision your day. Every day and every couple is different. Some brides and grooms know exactly what pictures they want during their wedding, while others don't have any plans.. On average, Elopements usually need 4-6 hours and bigger weddings often use 8-10 hours. Once you determine what you want to be captured, I will help you create a stress-free timeline that allows you to live fully in the moment.
