My Process
I want you to look at your photos and remember how you felt in that moment. Whether it’s nervous and happy on your wedding day, tired and a little vulnerable after welcoming your first baby or relaxed and joyful with your family. I want you to love them because they look so natural, like you. I want you to be so proud of them that you can’t wait to share them, print and hang them on your walls. I want you to dust off your album in ten years and be transported back to that day. I want them to become part of your family’s legacy.
My Process
STYLE
If I could pick one word to describe my style it would be candid. I thrive off emotions, whether they are happy tears or belly laughs. My favourite photos are always the unposed, candid moments of your day. I will never put you in a pose or ask you to do anything that feels uncomfortable. I’ll put you in the good light, give you some guidance and prompts if you need it and then just let you interact with each other. Most people aren’t models and you don’t have to be, just relax and let me do the rest. Thoughtful, meaningful details are what makes each wedding unique and I will capture all of them for you to treasure.
PLANNING
I know when the light is best for and how much time to allow for each part of your day and I'm happy to share this with you. I will chat with your planner leading up to your day and throughout to help ensure that things are running smoothly. However, I also get so excited about couples that forgo tradition and make the day all about themselves, with no timeline. A stranger showing up and third wheeling on the biggest day of your life is wild to me. We will chat on the phone, text and email dozens of times leading up to your wedding and when it rolls around we will be bff’s, which helps us both feel comfortable and makes better photos.
DAY OF
I will show up early, scout out the best locations for photos, introduce myself and my second shooter and do my best to blend in so that you feel comfortable going about your day with me there. I'm happy to fluff your dress, pin your boutonniere, or pour you a drink. I'll do anything I can to help and make sure that you are comfortable and relaxed. I will encourage you to be fully present and not sweat the small stuff. Your wedding photos are important, but I don’t think they’re the most important part of your day. You and your guests having a great time is the most important part. Once we have all of the epic shots I’ll get you right back to your party with your people
