A Thoughtful, Intentional Approach
I photograph weddings with a focus on capturing not just how the day looks but how it feels. My approach blends analog film and digital to create imagery that feels natural, layered, and enduring—while allowing space for moments to unfold without interruption.
Rather than directing every moment, I offer gentle guidance when needed while staying attentive to the energy of the day. The result is a collection of photography that feels honest, emotionally grounded, and true to your experience.
The Experience
Every collection includes:
Thoughtful, story-driven coverage
A blend of vintage analog film and digital imagery
Sneak peeks shortly after your wedding
A carefully curated online gallery
Ongoing guidance throughout the planning process
I take on a limited number of weddings each year to make sure my couples receive an experience that is tailored to them, from inquiry to receiving their gallery.
I approach every wedding with my whole heart, capturing moments as they unfold with care and intention.
Long after the day has passed, my hope is that your photographs become part of your family’s history—the images you’ll return to again and again, each time feeling something a little different.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
I strongly recommend it. While every wedding is different, I’ve found that having an experienced wedding planner makes a meaningful difference in how the day feels and flows, especially from the couple’s perspectives. A strong planner manages logistics, timing, and coordination behind the scenes so you can fully enjoy your wedding. Their work also allows me to focus entirely on documenting your day.
-
Yes—I photograph using both vintage film and digital formats. Digital allows me to capture moments quickly and reliably, while film brings a softer, more timeless quality to certain parts of the day. My goal is to blend the two thoughtfully in your final gallery to create a cohesive, layered collection of images.
-
I deliver a minimum of 100 images per hour of coverage, with most galleries exceeding that. I tend to shoot fairly candidly throughout the day, so I prefer not to set a maximum and will deliver a highlights section to your gallery so the full gallery doesn’t become overwhelming. Each image is thoughtfully selected and hand edited.
-
You’ll receive a preview gallery 48 hours after your wedding, and your full gallery will be delivered within 8-10 weeks. If you’d like a faster turnaround, priority editing within 5 weeks is available as an add-on.
-
In the rare but not impossible event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding due to an emergency, I have a trusted network of experienced photographers I can reach out to. I would work closely with you to find someone to replace me and ensure everything is handled smoothly.
