sometimes a private first look is actually just that, just the two people getting married, alone without any cameras. I loved everything about this quiet and easy going part of their day. post first look, they finished getting ready together 💫

ashley + eric

effortless and so present on their wedding day. it rained right before their ceremony. their wedding coordinator made the call to start the wedding with the first half of cocktail hour while we all waited for the rain to stop, these two didn’t bat an eye! took the day for what it held and it ended up being perfect in every way!

life as the most beautiful pup you ever did see. 🐶

it’s so easy to include your pets in your engagement session, don’t overthink it. I basically let them do their thing and have you focused on each other, and beautiful imagery comes from that, instead of focusing so much on forcing your pet to sit perfectly for the camera that you lose out on being in the moment together. so yeah, don’t leave them at home, don’t overthink it, bring them to your session.

happy July! this heat is reminding me of Molly and Ryan’s steamy engagement session, you can’t even tell they were fighting for their lives in the heat and humidity of that day ❤️‍🔥

I was reading through of my couples responses to a timeline questionnaire I had sent them, and they said they loved the way we documented this wedding and that was their inspiration for photos.

it’s always special when your couples draw inspiration from your previous work. this was such a fun and special weekend with Emma and Aaron. while it was a just a beautiful wedding, the relationship we had initially formed contributed to how effortlessly creative capturing their weekend was.
