You might have seen my work in People, Scary Mommy, PopSugar or Cosmo. But that isn’t where I started this journey. It started with a passion for wanting to capture the big emotions of your wedding day in a way that is authentic. My couples hate awkward posing, so I just don’t do it. Instead, I focus on the little moments, the ones you might not even see on your wedding day, and I capture it knowing it’s going to elicit those big emotions from you and your family. Because, at the end of the day, I want to tell your love story in a respectful and meaningful way.
If you can believe it, I started photography capturing CrossFit competitions. Honestly, I think it was the best way to start. It forced me to learn how to capture big moments quickly, in difficult shooting conditions. I have taken everything I have learnt from that time (and more!) and applied it to weddings. And I love it so much more! I get to make those meaningful connections with my couples, all while capturing their love stories.
I was always creative. Growing up I was in all the choirs and school plays. I loved a good story, the idea of magic and was sucked hard into the world of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and Marvel. I felt deeply connected with my friends after seeing one of those movies and talking about the nuances of the characters and moments in the movie. These books and movies created a community within my friends group and even helped me establish a stronger relationship with my husband.
