The most amazing open house . Thank you for having me!

Thank you to everyone who came and visited me. It meant the world to see you.

And thank you to all the vendors and their hard work. It’s always a blast getting to hang, create and serve with you.

They say trends come and go, but some moments are designed to be timeless. Standing here at a gorgeous Washington Manor among the history and the calla lilies, I’m reminded that the best part of a wedding isn’t just the aesthetic—it’s the quiet breath you take right before the whirlwind begins. 🕊️

✨ Pro-Tip: Take five minutes on your wedding day to be completely alone. No photos, no guests, no schedule. Just you, your thoughts, and the realization that you’re about to start the most beautiful chapter of your life.

Hawaii bound! 🌴✈️ But first... help!

We are so excited to take our little family of three to Hawaii this year! 🌊 I’m deep in the planning phase and realized I have so many “first-time mom” questions. I’d love to hear your best travel hacks:

    •    The Gear: Should we bring our own stroller and car seat, or is renting the way to go? Do I need a compact travel stroller, or can I survive with my everyday favorite? 🛒

    •    The Flight: It’s a 6+ hour journey. ✈️ How do you keep a one-year-old happy (and hopefully napping) at 30,000 feet? 🤞

    •    The Suitcase: Any “must-haves” for a toddler in the tropics? 🏝️

If you’ve traveled with a little one, please drop your best tips and sanity-savers in the comments! 👇

Still can’t get over the way Peter looks at Hailey!

P&H’s wedding day was magical at Twin Willow Wedding. The beauty of the PNW was incredibly important to them. I mean they had PNW National Park Post cards as table settings and a map as their guest seating chart.

However, being with family was also important. Their wedding ended up being MORE than perfect for their day. The gorgeous PNW venue vibes filled with happy tears, laughing, joy, lawn games, ice cream and dancing the night away.

Couldn’t have written a better start to their forever happy after. Congratulations again to these two.

Bride on a jet ski? Say less. 🌊✨

Washington weather has been showing off lately, and honestly, I can’t think of a better way to kick off a “warmer” wedding season than a bride and groom making an epic entrance on a jet ski.

One of the most legendary reception entrances I’ve had the honor of capturing! I had so much fun shooting this for my friend .paulson . 📸

MY MOM WAS SHOCKED! When my sister and I said we read. 📚☕✨

The truth is, we have always been readers, even when we were young. 📖👧

But lately, my sister and I have been on an absolute tear through our “To-Be-Read” piles. When we told our mom just how many books we’ve actually cleared lately, the look on her face was priceless!

I think being a wedding photographer makes me naturally drawn to great storytelling—whether I’m capturing it through a lens or reading it on a page. It’s been the perfect way to reset my creative brain and has become my favorite breastfeeding companion 🤍 as I prep for the 2026 wedding season to officially kick off. 🕊️

When my clients tell me they’re ‘obsessed’ and their moms can’t look at the photos without crying... that’s when I know I’ve done my job. 🥲✨

It was such an honor to document Chyna & Jamil’s Wedding. They followed every bit of direction, focused entirely on each other, and truly had the time of their lives. It’s that kind of trust that allows me to find the perfect light to tell your unique story.

I’m currently finalizing mood boards for my upcoming 2026 couples and I can’t wait to see what magic we create next! 🕊️📸

DON’T GET ME WRONG! I love hearing from you and chatting with you in my dms. I get it—DMs are quick, easy, and right there! But there’s a big reason I ask all my couples to head to the link in my bio and fill out the inquiry form instead of just chatting in the DMs.

The biggest reason? To make sure no one gets lost in the ‘hustle.’ 🌪️

Between managing current galleries, scouting locations, and being on-site for weddings, DMs can get buried fast. My website form feeds directly into my management system, which means:

Zero Missed Connections: Your date stays top-of-mind and I can respond with all the details you need immediately.

Timeline Artistry: The form helps me understand your vision from day one so we can start building that perfect wedding day flow.

The Full Experience: It ensures you get the Investment Guide and information on the Wedding Photo & Video Experience right away.

I want to give your wedding the attention it deserves from the very first hello. Head to the link in my bio to officially get on my calendar! ✨

Spring is here, and I’m mapping out my goals for the upcoming Wedding Season! My first weddings are this month. 🌿✨

This year is all about intentionality. More than ever, with a 1 year old I feel the importance of being intentional. Which reflects in my photography. Leaning into the art of timelines – prioritizing those quiet, unscripted moments that make your story unique. Creating space for your moments to breathe, live so I can capture my couples the truest most authentic selves.

What are you planning for your 2026/2027 wedding? Are you dreaming of a classic ballroom black-tie affair, a garden party, or a chic downtown celebration? Drop your wedding vibe in the comments—I’d love to hear what you’re dreaming up! Or Let’s have a little fun! If you’re already married I’d love to hear if you were “planning a wedding” what would the vibes be?👇

Still obsessed with this day! 🥳✨

Being a wedding photographer means I get to be the ‘ultimate third wheeler’ to the most incredible love stories. Celebration was a perfect reminder that the best weddings are the ones where you let go, have the time of your life, and focus entirely on each other. 🤍🥂

I’m currently prepping gear and finalizing mood boards for my upcoming 2026 couples, and I can’t wait to see what magic we create next! 🕊️📸
