Get to know ME
A wedding is a once in a lifetime event. There’s no second chance for me to capture your day and that is something that I don't take lightly.
I feel it’s incredibly important for me to document the day as things naturally unfold. I will move, clean off, wipe down, and change anything in order to make sure things are captured as beautifully as possible, but authenticity is priority to me. Real memories, not staged moments. This includes every belly laugh, spilled drink, and tear shed!
