Experiences

Your story. Your experience. Your way.

THERE'S MORE THAN ONE WAY TO TELL A STORY.

Whether you're celebrating yourself, planning a proposal, getting married, or just have an idea you can't stop thinking about, we'll figure out what makes sense for you.

​

Some stories call for something simple. Others turn into a whole thing. I'm pretty happy with either.

​

Let's find yours.

Good photos are only part of it.

​

From the first idea to the final gallery, I want you to feel taken care of. We’ll figure out the location, talk through what you’re envisioning, plan the details that actually matter, and make sure you know what to expect before you ever step in front of my camera.

​

And once we’re there? You don’t need to perform for me. I’ll guide you when you need it, give you room when you don’t, and pay attention to all the little things happening in between.

​

Every experience includes:

✓ Thoughtful planning built around you
✓ Location guidance and recommendations
✓ Direction and posing that never feels forced
✓ Every final image personally edited by hand
✓ A private, high resolution online gallery
✓ Access to professional prints, custom albums, and wall art
✓ Support from your first inquiry through final delivery

You bring the story. I’ll help you figure out how we tell it.

Intimate Weddings

For intimate celebrations with the people who matter most.

From the quiet moments before everything begins to the celebration that follows, coverage is built around the way your day is actually unfolding. Collections begin with up to four hours, with additional coverage available for longer celebrations.

Elopements

For couples choosing something smaller and more personal.
Coverage is built around the way you want the day to unfold, whether that means just the two of you exchanging vows or celebrating alongside a small group of your favorite people.

Engagements

For celebrating the two of you before the big day.
Your engagement session can be simple and relaxed or turn into something completely your own. We’ll build it around the two of you, what you actually enjoy doing, and how you want this part of your story to feel.

Surprise Proposals

For the moment before the celebration.
From figuring out where it happens to making sure I’m exactly where I need to be when you ask, your proposal is thoughtfully planned while keeping the surprise intact. Discreet coverage captures the moment itself, followed by portraits together afterward.

BEFORE THE “I DO”
Your wedding story doesn’t have to start on the wedding day.
When you book an elopement or intimate wedding collection,
you’ll receive a little something extra:
your choice of a boudoir experience or an engagement experience.

Something just for you. Something for the two of you. Your call.

Love Stories

From “yes” to “I do” and everything around it.

Come as you are.
We’ll take it from there.

You don’t need to know how to pose or have any of this figured out beforehand. We’ll plan the details together, and I’ll guide you through the rest.

Okay, hear me out...

Have an idea that doesn't quite fit into one of the boxes above? Good. Those are usually the fun ones.

Portraits, creative concepts, cosplay, branding, birthdays, or something wildly specific you haven't stopped thinking about...

Tell me everything.

Travel & Destination Experiences

Have camera. Will travel.

Some stories aren't meant to happen close to home.

Maybe you're planning an elopement somewhere incredible, celebrating somewhere you've always wanted to go, or you've got an idea that simply needs a different backdrop.

Tell me where we're going and what you're dreaming up. We'll figure out the rest.

Travel experiences are custom built around the location, timeline, and what we're creating together.

Okay, Your Turn.

You’ve seen the options. Now tell me what you’re thinking.

You don’t need to have every detail figured out before you reach out. Tell me what you’re celebrating, what you’re dreaming up, or even just the idea you can’t stop thinking about.

Once I know a little more about what you’re envisioning, I’ll send over the full collections and pricing so you can see what feels like the right fit.

We’ll figure out the rest together.

Let's keep in touch!

A little note from me when I have something worth sharing.


Think seasonal sessions, limited offerings, new places to shoot, recent stories, and the occasional idea I think you might want in on.


No weekly inbox invasion. Promise.

You'll hear from me about once a month, sometimes less.

When’s your birthday?
Month

Year

Month + day is perfect. No need to share the year! You never know when a little birthday surprise might land in your inbox. ♡
