Say yes... to the First Look

This

intimate

shoot

allows

couples

to capture their love, emotions, and excitement

before

the

ceremony.

Because timing, lighting, and corralling loved

ones

can

affect

the

quality

(and quantity) of the photos, I always recommend

this

bride-and-groom-

only option. This shoot also gives couples time to get acquainted with me following them around and allows for more organic moments to happen, as they become less concerned with my presence. Then we can all focus on what matters most— memorializing your love!

Wedding P hotography My

goal

as

your

wedding

photographer is to ensure your photos look beautiful, unforgettable, and timeless. I cover your entire Big Day, not just the posed, premeditated moments. Utilizing the natural light and my vibrant editing style,

your

captured

moments

will be sure to pop, whether they were planned or candid moments!
