can I tell you a secret?
come in close.
I adore photography, but I adore working with people even more. I come alive inside when I have my camera in hand, leading to instant connections and newly formed friendships. Fair warning: we might just end up being besties!
When working with me, you will quickly learn that my greatest joys are helping others, creating, traveling, reading, my 3 pups and my wonderful husband. I will probably ask you what your greatest joys are too!
I believe in expressing yourself and your love in an intentional and authentic way. I've also come to the conclusion that going against the grain, and doing what feels right to you is so incredibly important even if it goes against the status quo. That’s what brought me to boudoir photography, and then eventually microweddings and elopements.

the allure of
microweddings
and elopements
If you’ve ever attended a wedding, you’ve likely witnessed the moment the bride walks down the aisle, the officiant pronounces them wed, and the tender first kiss of the newly married couple. Without question, weddings are magical!
But there’s something distinctly different about microweddings and elopements… The intimacy, the exclusivity, the privacy of it all makes you feel like you’re literally in a bubble. An enchanting wedding bubble.

We provide luxury level service while assisting couples in creating and capturing their microwedding/elopement in a way that feels true to them without skimping on quality.
