“OUR ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE WITH HER WAS PERFECT IN EVERY WAY. SHE WORKED HARD IN FINDING THE PERFECT SPOTS FOR OUR PICTURES, HELPING US BECOME LESS AWKWARD, AND TRULY GETTING TO KNOW US” – L+J, UTAH
ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE
I consider myself a boutique-type wedding photographer. I take on ten weddings or less per year in order to give you a top-notch experience. I do all the shooting. I do not use associate photographers in place of myself. You’re always going to get me. You’re investing in a one-of-a-kind premium service when you choose to work with me. I’m already excited!
I’ll partner with you during the elopement planning process as a collaborative co-creator; use me as a resource. I have extensive location/venue lists for wedding spots around the USA + beyond. I pride myself on spending many hours location scouting and researching. Planning logistics and details does not intimidate me. Let me help you find the perfect area to get married outdoors, no matter where or what season.
“MY FIANCE AND I WERE PLANNING AN ALASKAN ELOPEMENT ON A WHIM AND SHE WAS A BIG HELP WITH PLANNING AND HELPING TO IRON OUT ALL THE SMALL DETAILS” – C+K, ALASKA
ABOUT THE EDITING
I personally edit every image you will receive in your gallery and enjoy the process. I never outsource editing. I think about longevity + timelessness when working on your images; natural/true-to-life colors, flattering skin tones, minimal distractions, etc. Details are important to me, for the legacy of your images. I pour myself into this and do not take it lightly, so that I can make the photos the best they can be.
