I might be alone in this, but I have LOVED what the “pandemic” did to wedding culture. The shift from large, bustling ceremonies to intimate, sweet weddings by the water… it is a change that I am here for. Landen Deerfield park was a BEATIFUL location for a wedding. The day was clear and the […]
Laurel got ready at Aloft in Newport. I was not there for these photos, and I am SO thankful to my friend and lifesaver, Kaleigh, for stepping in on this morning!!

The silos at Tin Roof Events are just so cute. This venue was such a perfect spot for a wedding. The wind on this day was out. of. control. I can shoot in *any* kind of lighting – no matter the situation, I can make it work! But wind really throws a wrench into things, […]

Storytelling sessions are about capturing moments, not poses. It’s about documenting what your days look like and also what these moments feel like. It’s a way to remember the things we might take for granted today that won’t last forever. “The big shiny moments get all of the recognition, but it’s the small ones that […]

And I really love shooting at Devou Park, especially this overlook. 😍 I’ve been shooting proposals for almost 10 years, and I’m proud to be able to bring a certain expertise to it.
