Because I’m not about awkward poses, but rather Those real moments and y’all having one heck of a good time on your wedding day.
The little things and those big feelings, like the look of pure happiness on your face when your in their arms. Or your babe wiping away tears rolling down your cheeks while reading your vows to one another.
The big moments, the loud ones and the quiet ones, the in-betweens, the ones you don’t think anyone else is watching.

An investment in preserving those little things and those big feelings from your wedding day. It’s something that will only increase in value over time because these images will be all you have left to remember the start of this new adventure together.
and i want to give you one heck of an experience.
I want to get to know you as a friend rather than be just a vendor at your wedding with a nice camera. Because let’s be honest, on your wedding day we’re gonna be spending a lot of time together and there’s nothing more awkward than having someone take your photo that you don’t jive with.
