Wether it's a proposal, senior, maternity, couples, or just because session, your season of life is worth documenting, and I want to help you create memories you will look back on and cherish for a lifetime!
On your wedding day, you can relax and enjoy the celebration while I capture every unforgettable moment. I'll be there early to document the small details-the dress, shoes, rings, flowers-everything that contributes to your day's story. As your day unfolds, I'll move through the moments with ease, seamlesly blending into the background during your ceremony and reception, yet always ready to capture those candid, intimate, and joyful moments as they happen. Wether it's a quite glance between you and your partner, or a joyous moment with family, I'll ensure you feel comfortable and natural, while I work to document everything with artistry and care.
Once the wedding day is over, the experience isn't quite over yet. I'll go through every image carefully to bring out the best moments in each one. I edit every photo to ensure it reflects the timeless beauty of your day and your unique style. This editing process may take some time, but I PROMISE it's worth the wait! In the meantime, I'll send you a sneak peek of a few favorite images just days after the wedding to relive those memories.
When your final gallery is ready, you'll have access to a collection of high-resolution images that tell the full story of your day. From candid moments to the stunning portraits, you'll have a variety of images that allow you to relive each part of your wedding experience. I want to give you a gallery that's not just a collection of photos, but a reflection of love, joy, and celebration you shared on your wedding day.
The next step in the experience is your engagement session. This isn't just about taking pretty photos-It's a chance for us to connect further, build trust, and get you comfortable In front of the camera. It's also a time for you to experience how I work, as I'll gently guide you through fun, natural prompts and poses. I want you to feel at ease, so when your wedding day arrives, you'll be confident and ready to enjoy every moment without worrying about the camera.
The experience begins the moment we connect. From our first conversation, I'll take the time to get to know you and understand your vision for your wedding day. We'll chat about what matters most to you, the style and atmosphere you want for your photos, and the special moments you'd like to highlight. I'll guide you through the different packages I offer to ensure everything fits your needs and we'll start crafting a photography experience that's tailored just for you!
I would describe my style as a mix of documentary, storytelling, and candid! While I love the artistry of the pretty posed portraits, I love myself some good ol' candid, unposed photos as well! I like to sprinkle a good mix of both the carefree candid photos as well as the more artsy posed photos into all my galleries.
Yes, I offer the option of a second shooter, and I highly recommend it for larger weddings or if you want more coverage. Most of my packages include a second shooter, which allows us to capture more angles, different moments, and ensures no special moments are missed, such as reactions from both families during the ceremony or getting ready shots of both partners. It also allows for a more seamless flow throughout the day.
I completely understand that not everyone is comfortable Infront of the camera, so I make it a priority to create a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere. I encourage you to be yourselves, and I'll guide you through natural movements and poses that feel comfortable and not stiff. The engagement session is a great opportunity for us to get to know each other and get you used to being photographed! I want you to feel at ease, knowing that I'm there to capture you in your best light.
Typically, you'll receive a sneak peek of your photos within a few days after the wedding- usually 50-100 images to tide you over while you wait. Your full wedding gallery will be delivered in about 6-10 weeks, depending on the size of your wedding. I take great care in editing your photos to ensure they are of the highest quality, and I promise it'll be worth the wait! Regular sessions are a 2-3 week turn around!
It's a good idea to book your photographer as soon as you've set your date-especially if your wedding is during peak wedding season (typically late spring to early fall in St. Louis). Booking 9-12 months in advance gives you the best chance of securing your preferred photographer and allows time to plan your engagement session, timeline, and other details.
Absolutely! I believe it's important that we connect before you make any decisions. I want you to feel completely comfortable with me as your photographer. We can meet via zoom, or through a phone call to discuss your wedding plans, my approach, and how I can best capture your special day and serve you. it's a great opportunity for you to ask any questions and get a feel for how we'll work together!
