With me, you'll never be forced into poses and photos that don't feel true to you. I take the time to get to know you and make sure your images reflect who you really are. You can count on easy prompts and actions to keep the organic vibes flowing, making sure that both of you, yes, even your hubby-to-be, are having a blast!!!

ONE DAY THESE WILL BE
I understand the importance of capturing your true personalities, so no awkward poses here! I take time to know you both, ensuring your images reflect your uniqueness. It’s always my mission to create a relaxed natural vibe during the shoot. None of my work so far has featured professional models, I just have a knack for making my couples look like pros! 😉
If perfectly posed-photos are your thing, then we may not be the best fit. Life is messy, let’s dig up those beautiful, messy, real-moments together! My goal is always to create authentically gorgeous moments so you can look back on your photos and feel what it was like to be there, all over again.
Believe me, your wedding day deserves to be nothing short of the BEST. DAY. EVER., and I'm here to make that a reality. Count on me to offer a bunch of resources during the planning process, ensuring that on your big day, you can truly savor the precious moments with your loved ones. Let's team up and create an unforgettable wedding experience together!
You know that sensation when an old favorite song starts playing, and suddenly you're transported back to a specific moment, reliving the emotions as if they were brand new? Well, that's the vibe I strive to bring to my photography.
I've got your back for whatever way you wanna celebrate your big day. Just make sure it's all about what you want, not what others expect from you. Whether you're saying your vows in the backyard of your Calaveras County home, on a vineyard, on the cliffs of Big Sur while the waves crash, in a field surrounded by wildflowers, during sunrise over Half Dome in Yosemite, or in the spot where you got engaged—any of those options would be awesome, as long as it's all about what you really want for your day.

Abso-freakin-lutely! Exploring new places is one of my favorite things to do. I’m an expert at choosing amazing spots for bridal shots and I thrive while creating in new environments. The best part? NO TRAVEL FEES!

Of course! Fill out an inquiry form and drop me a line in your comments and I can send you the link to a current wedding or elopement gallery that will vibe with your current vision.

Nope, I only give my clients the absolute best quality images and the raw files typically aren’t a reflection of my work and current portfolio. If you’re worried about file size and enlargements, then I gotchu! Your gallery will include the perfect size images for gorgeous canvas and metal prints.
ANSWEr
I deliver my photos via private online gallery. Every wedding and portrait packages include access to high quality file downloads for each delivered image, available directly from your gallery. You’ll also be able to order stunning prints and products, such as metal-prints (my personal fav), canvases, albums, and more!

Typically brides hire me to be there all day, which means about 10 hours, but don't worry, that's not all spent taking photos, most of that time is spent getting ready and then having fun at the end of the night! I love being there for all the special moments, like when you're mom sees you getting into your wedding dress, and the party at the end of the night! However, I do have packages to meet every need, so this is something we can discuss further as we start planning!
ANSWEr
Yes! My goal is always to serve you as best as I can, so I want to make sure that you’re getting everything your heart desires when it comes to your wedding day photography. If there’s something you desire that isn’t included in your package (extra hours, albums, 2nd shooters, whatever!) then we can absolutely add it on. In our initial consultation, we can discuss each package and decide which option (or in-between option) will best suit your needs!
