What’s it like to work with you?    

I’ll offer you direction, but I won’t pose you stiffly. Honestly, some of the best shots are the in-between moments.  It is my job to make you comfortable, and in order to achieve this, I put a lot of thought and heart into each client experience. 

What’s your approach to weddings?

I am there to capture the event as it unfolds. I am interested in real connections, and honest beauty.

I hustle and am constantly moving, because subtle changes in perspective are paramount. I try to stay out of the way, observe, and document exquisite moments. 

And yes, I am available to step in and direct when group family portraits are requested.  We’ll do them quickly and efficiently.

But otherwise, I am there to artfully document. My job is to translate the unique celebration that you and your beloveds are creating into visual form.  From personal experience, I know how hard it is to take in everyone and everything while it's happening. There are just so many people you love together all at once! So having beautiful documentation you can return to, to re-experience, is a treasure.  

What are your rates and offerings?

Weddings vary greatly! While I have several collections to choose from, these are meant to serve as guides. If there is a small change that would make the ideal offering for you, I’m all ears. Tell me your vision, how many guests, location, etc., and we’ll work out what’s best for you.

Having a very intimate wedding or elopement? Fantastic! You may only need two hours of coverage, which I offer for $1,100. Having a great big throw down with everyone you know and love? Gorgeous! You might want me there for most of the day, a second photographer, an engagement session, and a wedding album for $4,500. Your needs are as unique as your wedding! Let’s talk. 

Family + Portrait sessions vary as well.  I offer pregnancy, newborn, family, and couples sessions. As well as natural looking portraits for musicians, artists, and small business owners to better represent themselves.

Typically, these are 1.5 - 2 hr sessions at an outdoor location, or in your home.

Clients spend around $500 depending on the number of people involved and the location.

These photos are for you! You are welcome to print or post as you like, without asking my permission. 

When will we receive our images?

4-6 weeks for weddings, around 2 weeks for portraits and family sessions. 

How long have you been a photographer?

A long time. I got my first real camera in college, and was so smitten I switched my major. Almost immediately, I photographed my sister’s wedding, barefoot (both her and myself) on a beach. That was over 20 years ago, and this work of visual storytelling still feels engaging and inspiring to me.
