This is what it looks like to lead a wedding day – reading the room, keeping it light, giving clear direction, and naturally allowing space for joy!
I keep it fun, calm, and on schedule. 😉
Behind the scenes on a wedding day- it's a lot of smiling, fixing the dress and hair to perfection, showing couples the back of my camera, and calmly directing lots of beautiful people!

After 16 years as a wedding photographer, it's so fun to go through the archives! My goal has always been to make skin tones look true-to-life, and it's resulted in a pretty classic style overall.
Enjoy these archives from 2021!

What details should you gather for your wedding day photos? It's up to you! Whether you have lots of details to include, or just the rings, I'll meet you where you're at!
Lauren had all these fabulous details ready to go in a box for me-- even the florals and ribbon were set aside when I arrived!
And if you love a checklist, then here's everything you see in this picture:
-invitation
-cute stamp
-wax seal
-something blue to pin to bouquet
-perfume
-ring box (with all 3 rings!)
-note from grandma
-earrings
-extra florals
-ribbon
“Three other tables told me I need to come meet you!”
I heard those words from a bride this week and it made my day!! 💕 The Intimate Wedding Expo at @thehistoricpostoffice is more than a bridal show— it’s a group of solid wedding vendors that care about you and your wedding. And we all recommend each other too!
Thank you to The Historic Post Office for creating such a lovely community of vendors to make each wedding a beautiful experience. 💕
From wedding rings to sweet little baby toes!!
I love being your family photographer- the one you call on for all of life's things! I first met the Boland's at their engagement session, then their wedding, a few family sessions, maternity, and then a newborn session! And when they bought their house, it was actually my photos on the real estate listing! ❤️
I love getting to be a part of families over the years! 😊
It makes me a little teary eyed to see years of my photo work all laid out together! 💕 I typically don’t do wedding shows, but the Intimate Wedding Expo at @thehistoricpostoffice is truly different! They have created a great community of vendors who truly have a heart for making wedding day dreams come true!
And that incredible floral arrangement was thanks to @jeffs_flowers_ofcourse !

Calm. Peaceful. Joyful. Love.
Cynthia + Doug’s wedding was perfect in every way. They were surrounded by friends and family, the sunshine was beautiful, and @carolyncelesteweddings kept the day running perfectly every step of the way!
