THE EXPERIENCE
my approach
i want to put the focus back on what's truly important- celebrating your love story in the most authentic way possible.
i take a more laid-back approach to photography, documenting what's happening as it happens. i want you to feel relaxed and comfortable being your true selves in front of me and the camera! mess around and play, or slow down and take in the moments. i aim to let you honestly show and express your love for one another.
throughout our session, i'll guide you with prompts to get you moving and feeling instead of putting you in stiff poses that don't reflect you. i actually encourage couples to ignore my directions and just do their own thing if they feel inspired and open to doing so! the best memories come from relaxed, joyful, and truly candid moments, and that is always what i look to capture.

what's your editing style?
my editing style is warm and natural. i like to keep colors reflective of how they actually looked on that day, and then add a bit of a golden glow to the images! i don't stray away from sun-flares and haze, especially with early golden hour shoots.
what exactly is an elopement?
elopements aren’t just for running away and getting married in an elvis chapel in vegas anymore (although that’s totally rad if that’s what you want to do and i’m 100% down to capture that). they’re a way to celebrate your love and commitment in the way that you want to, with no need to worry about seating arrangements and how much it costs to feed 200 people you barely know. your elopement should be the manifestation of you and your partner’s perfect day, a day 100% focused on your love and commitment to each other.
true elopements traditionally have no guests, but the industry is expanding to consider weddings with under 20 guests an "elopement".
do you only shoot elopements?
nope! i love elopements, but also shoot weddings with under 50 guests! if i think we're a great match, i'll also take a few bigger weddings every year.
we're awkward in front of the camera...
everyone feels awkward in front of the camera, but don't worry at all! i want to get to know the two of you and how you interact, so that i can guide and pose you in a way that feels natural. throughout our shoot, i'll ask you to move and play so that i can capture your authentic selves. i don't want you to force a smile and stare at my lens, with me it's all about true moments!
