Those are the real questions

And they're the ones I've been answering for seventeen years.

My couples consistently say their sessions felt more like hanging out with a friend who happened to have a camera. They say "That was easy!" as we wrap up. That's not an accident. It's my goal! And it's the result learning how to make real people feel like themselves in front of a lens. And when you get your gallery back, it’s not just the obvious moments, it’s all of them. From the marquee moments to the small candids you don't get to see in real time, I'll be sure to capture it all so your story is told completely, no detail left out. 

By the time your wedding day arrives, I already know your timeline so thoroughly that I don't need to ask you a single question. I've thought through every scenario, flagged every potential timing issue, and made a plan so that on your wedding day, the photography is simply not something you ever have to think about.

Will I like having them around all day?

Will I feel awkward & stiff in the portraits?

Will they understand what matters to us? 

will they just know what they need to do?

If someone asks me what I do at a party, I say: I photograph people on the best days of their lives, and I make sure they actually feel that way the whole time I am there.

Wedding Photography

What’s included in every package

No matter which package you choose, every single wedding I photograph includes the same core experience: assistance with your timeline and vendor recommendations anytime you need, plus your biggest advocate and friendliest face on your wedding day. After the cake has been eaten you can expect a selection of sneak peeks a week after your wedding, hand-edited, high-resolution images and full, colorful gallery. A print release, and set of fine art prints put a bow on things. And you'll get lifetime returning client discounts on any future sessions, because I genuinely hope this isn't the last time we work together.

Customized packages and ala carte options are always available!  If you don't see a perfect option below, we'll create it!

What's next?

Step One:

Your Inquiry

You find the contact form, you fill it out. I keep it minimal on purpose, so you don't have to write a biography just to say hello, and then I do a little happy dance at my desk when I read it. You'll hear from me within 48 hours with my availability, information about my approach and packages, and what the next steps look like.

Step Two:

Let's Actually Meet!

We hop on a video call and you tell me everything. Your vision, your priorities, your concerns, your excitement. Photography tends to be booked earlier in planning than a lot of other vendors, so I don't expect you to have everything figured out yet. I'll ask about what matters most, suggest a sample timeline, and share package options that actually fit your vision.

Step Three:

Making It Official

Once you've made your decision, I'll send over a contract for review and an invoice for your retainer. A signed contract and retainer are all you need to officially get your date on my calendar! If your package includes an engagement session, we'll get that scheduled as soon as you're ready.

Step Four:

your wedding day

You have a beautiful, memorable, wildly fun wedding day. I capture so many photos that when guests ask 'how many do you think she took today?' the answer makes them dizzy. We laugh during portraits. We play. I've got your back on every logistical front, every last-minute adjustment, every moment that needs to be quietly handled so you never have to handle it yourself.

Step Five:

Your Photos

Within a week of your wedding day, you'll receive a selection of sneak peek photos to share with friends and family however you'd like. I'll continue hand-editing your full gallery individually. Your complete gallery will be delivered within eight weeks of your wedding.

Step Six:

optional, but encouraged!

Six months from now, or two years from now, or ten years from now, when you and your partner are ready for new photos for any reason, you send me an email and get back on my calendar. My clients receive returning client discounts for life. I get the joy of continuing to photograph some of my favorite couples. Everybody wins.

How would you describe your photography style? +

I always say my photography style is vibrant and timeless, featuring a mixture of documentary photography and editorial-inspired portraits. I want to tell the full story of your wedding day, and this mixture of photography styles combined with my editing style ensures we capture all the moments, details, candids, and joy in their true-to-life color.

What if we feel nervous to be in front of a camera? +

Nearly every couple I chat with shares this concern with me. And you’re in good company - because I identify as an introvert and feel awkward in front of a camera myself! I have tricks for breaking the ice and will make sure our time together accomplishes your photo shot list while laughing lots and taking plenty of deep, peaceful breaths. I promise to make you comfortable so that you look like the rockstars you are in front of a camera and I will continue to guide and help throughout your entire wedding day, as well as leading up to it, to ensure that I capture the most beautiful images from your wedding day. We’re in this together!

We love the film aesthetic. Do you shoot film, too? +

I've been shooting film as a big part of my workflow since 2009! In fact, I learned the technical aspects of photography with black and white film on a basic Canon 35mm camera. I have always been passionate about film and how it slows down the photography process, forces me to be deliberate and thoughtful, and the colors from film negatives are second to none. I incorporate film into every wedding I photograph.

Do you use AI? +

AI remains a very small part of my workflow. I prefer to hand-edit every image that I deliver to my clients so that you can be assured every single photo is getting individual care and adjustment to ensure consistency in your gallery. I may use AI tools that assist in removing background distractions from some images or utilize some AI tools to organize my social media platforms. I do not and have never used AI editing software to batch edit images as it is not in line with the personal attention I want to give every image and every couple.

What areas do you work in? +

I live just north of Seattle in Edmonds, Washington and serve the entire Pacific Northwest. I accept a very limited number of travel or destination weddings but would love to hear from you even if your wedding is taking place elsewhere.
