Photographer for warm hearted, lively + easygoing couples Hey I’m Kristy! Head on over to my website to get to know me better!

My genuine story telling approach to capturing candid moments gives you a sense of ease so that you can be present and enjoy your time with your loved ones. I am a photographer because I am inspired by you as a couple, your love for one another + the space that surrounds you. I encourage you to be in the moment with each other which allows you both to become your true selves. This brings out raw emotions and creates moments that you relive each and every time you look at your images.

That slow shift from warm golden light into blue hour, and finally dusk — when everything gets a little quieter, moodier, and more intimate. 🌙

We wandered the property, made a few new four-legged friends, watched the last of the daylight disappear, and let the evening unfold without rushing it.

Some of the most beautiful photographs happen in those fleeting moments as golden hour fades into blue and the evening settles in. 🤍

Golden hour → blue hour → dusk.
Every part of it tells a different piece of the story.

Halfway through wedding season and my heart is SO full. 🤍

I’ve had the absolute privilege of documenting so many incredible love stories already this year — the quiet moments before walking down the aisle, teary first looks, packed dance floors, windswept portraits, ch*****ne popping and all of those little in-between moments that end up meaning everything.

To every couple who has trusted me to step into such an important day of your lives — thank you. 🥹

Thank you for trusting my vision.
Thank you for letting me into your families.
Thank you for laughing with me, getting adventurous for the shot, and allowing me to create photographs that feel like you.

Every wedding reminds me why I love what I do.

And somehow… we’re not done yet. 🥂✨ I still have so many beautiful wedding days ahead this season, and I cannot wait to see what the rest of the year brings.

Here’s to love stories, happy tears, golden-hour portraits and photographs that will still mean everything 30 years from now. 🤍

Once in a lifetime.

Today marks 8 years of marriage and 10 years of choosing each other.

Behind every wedding I photograph is a quiet reminder of what love looks like after the vows are said. It’s found in the ordinary moments, the laughter after hard days, the unwavering support, and the decision to keep showing up for one another.

Thank you for being my safe place, my biggest supporter, and the one who can always make me laugh—even when I don’t want to. Life will always have its mountains to climb, but facing them together is what makes the journey so beautiful.

Here’s to 10 years of memories, 8 years of marriage, and a lifetime still to come. ❤️

Some photos don’t need direction.

Just a quiet moment.
A forehead kiss.
A laugh that couldn’t be planned.
The way they forget anyone else is there.

Those are the moments that become the favorites years later.

The in-between will always be my favorite place to photograph. 🤍

Photographer confession… 🤍

If your dress gets a little dirty…

I probably won’t be upset.

Because dirty hems usually mean you actually lived your day.

You danced.

You wandered somewhere beautiful.

You hugged everyone a little tighter.

You stayed out after sunset because the moment was too good to end.

That’s what wedding dresses are for.

Years from now, I don’t think you’ll remember whether your dress stayed spotless.

I think you’ll remember how it felt to wear it.

Team pristine dress or team wear-the-dress-and-make-the-memory? 🥂

There are few moments in life that can never be recreated.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The shaky hands. The nervous smile. The look of complete surprise. The tears. The laughter. And that unforgettable “YES.” 🤍💍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A proposal lasts only a few seconds, but the memories deserve to last forever.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Being trusted to quietly document one of the biggest moments in someone’s life is something I’ll never take for granted. I blend into the background, letting everything unfold naturally while preserving every genuine emotion exactly as it happened.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Years from now, these are the photos that will take you right back to the beginning of your forever.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re planning to pop the question, I’d be honoured to capture your story.

✨ Now booking surprise proposals.

Some weddings are filled with perfectly planned moments… and then there are the days that remind you what it’s all about.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The biggest laughs. Ch*****ne on the cabin steps. Running hand-in-hand through the forest without a second thought. A wedding day that felt effortless from beginning to end.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These two are the kind of people who make everyone around them feel welcome. So incredibly kind-hearted, so much fun, and completely present with the people they love. It wasn’t about perfection—it was about soaking in every single moment, and that made it unforgettable.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whispering Springs was the perfect backdrop for a day full of happy tears, belly laughs, and the kind of love that feels easy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Days like this are exactly why I love what I do. 🤍

Some of the most meaningful moments from an elopement aren’t the vows, the first kiss, or even the portraits.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They’re the in-between moments.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The quiet pause while everyone catches their breath. The laughter shared on the grass. The little hands reaching for someone they love. The moments that weren’t planned, posed, or placed on a timeline.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Elopements have a way of stripping away expectations and making room for what matters most — being present with the people who make your story yours.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Years from now, these are often the photographs that bring you right back to how it felt.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not perfect.
Not curated.
Just real.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And sometimes, that’s the most beautiful part of all. ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

✨ Wedding season is officially open, and what a way to begin. ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A stunning couple, the dreamiest details, soft summer light, and a love story that was felt in every moment of the day. From quiet glances to joyful laughter, every part of this celebration was effortlessly beautiful.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These are the weddings that remind me why I love what I do—capturing real connection, genuine emotion, and the moments you’ll want to relive for decades to come.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you for trusting me to document the start of your forever. If this wedding is any indication of what’s ahead, wedding season 2026 is going to be absolutely incredible. 🤍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s to love, beautiful beginnings, and a season filled with unforgettable memories.
