What I eat on a wedding day as a high-protein, dairy-free wedding photographer.

Fast. Protein-packed. Easy to grab during fast-paced timelines while keeping me fueled through 10+ hours on my feet.

Save for your next grocery run.

For a long time, my worth felt tied to my productivity.
A few years ago, after wise counsel from - I started implementing regular “personal days.”

Not every personal day is aesthetic or exciting. Sometimes it’s cleaning, meal prep or simply being present. (Once I fasted + read the entire book of Psalms 😅) It’s whatever I’m feeling I need.

But learning to step out of constant “doing” has done wonders for my physical, mental, and spiritual health.

Highly recommend to my fellow recovering “boss babe/workaholics.”

Joke's on my math teachers.
Turns out I'm right-brained.

Think My Big Fat Greek Wedding—all the joy, culture, and energy—except every single person was ridiculously attractive and had hearts just as big.

Such a special, intentional day surrounded by the kindest, most charismatic people. Courtney + George: you sure know how to throw a party… and how to love your people well. 🤍✨

Wrapping up sneaks for my final wedding weekend of the year. Feeling profoundly grateful for all the clients who have trusted me to document their best-day-ever. The fact that they're all just amazing people who I vibe so well with is not lost on me. It makes the fact that I've been doing this for a DECADE speak volumes to how important it is to connect with the ones you serve - not just show up to collect a paycheck.

There’s a kind of magic out here, where the mountains stand witness; vows spoken beneath their peaks. The next morning, the desert opens wide and the sun spills over sandstone and sage. The light out here feels different. Like it glows gold just for you. These places offer a kind of love story only the West can hold.

And, I get to witness it every year. Two people, the open sky, and that wild stillness. It’s pure. It’s unhurried. And it’s closer to reach than most think… And I’d love to help you find your way there. 🫶🏻

It’s that time of year again: the blur of travel; session after session; late nights editing — where it feels like I’m just trying to keep my head above water. The kind of season that can swallow you whole if you let it.
⠀
But then evenings like this remind me… this is what I prayed for. The work that fills me up, the clients who value me as a person and trust my vision when they step in front of my camera; allowing me the honor of creating memories that last.
⠀
A decade into this “little photography business,” and I’m still standing here in awe — tired, maybe, but deeply grateful. Every bit of it still feels like a blessing. 🧡

The kind of day that feels like the most joyous, nostalgic lived-in memory. Nothing staged, nothing rushed - just their people, their vineyard and a day that unfolded exactly as it was meant to. 🍇 🌞 Soft light, familiar laughter, and moments so honest you don’t won't just look back on... you'll feel them: intimate, intentional and effortless.
