HOT TAKE: I THINK WEDDINGS ARE COOL.

Beneath the chronic RBF and collection of trad tattoos is a romantic at heart who has dreamed of her very own wedding since she was a child. Now, I get to be a part of dozens of weddings every year - how cool is that!? I'm a film school grad who loved the art but hated the phoniness of the industry. Once I discovered that I could make a career out of capturing genuine human beings, I never went back.

I care A LOT about your photos - I know everyone says that, but I really mean it because I'm autistic (IYKYK). I'm a huge fan of details, planning, and organization - I'll meticulously craft an experience that guarantees that we can both enjoy our time together, stress-free.

My Loves:

fig & olive, my two kitties
logan, my PARTNER/cat dad
My family in wv & kentucky

Who I Am:

WEST VIRGINIAN-turned-yinzer / ESTATE SALE ENJOYER / avid SIMS PLAYER / FORMER THEATRE KID / chronic wikipedia deep-diver  /  calico critter collector

OUR TIME TOGETHER.

I absolutely LOVE getting to know everyone I work with, and I'm totally down to grab a drink, sweet treat, or coffee before your session. Nobody wants to feel like a total stranger is snapping their pics! I'm all-in for reviewing your Pinterest inspo, giving outfit advice, or even just gushing over your wedding details.

I'm determined to create a fun, stress-free, face-hurts-from-laughing type of experience that invokes fond memories every time you look through your album. It's one thing to take great photos - it's another to have a great time while doing it!

Want to hit up a bowling alley? Explore a mossy forest? Just snuggle up at home? I'll let you do your thing, no matter what it entails, and capture the most swoon-worthy moments.

If you're on the hunt for a photographer who truly embraces your uniqueness - and makes you look damn good while doing it - let's do this thing!
