this is the place where your moments become modern heirlooms
Memories You Can Hold Onto, Forever
Some moments are big, like vows and first dances. Others are quiet, like your baby’s wild curls, your grandmother's wrinkled hands fluffing your veil. Whether it's through photo or film, my job is to notice the things that matter. The moments that slip past. I can't slow time, but I can help you keep it.
I work with digital, 35mm film, and Super 8 to document your story in a way that feels honest, nostalgic, and true to you. I’m not here to make things look perfect. I’m here to help you see how beautiful it already was.
you blink, and the moment is over. that's why I'm here.
wedding photography
Weddings move fast, but I’m drawn to the quiet, unspoken parts—your partner’s face when you aren’t looking, your grandma’s hands fixing your veil, that soft moment alone before the music starts. My goal is to document the full feeling of your day, with images that look how it felt: warm, honest, and entirely you.
wedding films
A wedding film is like memory in motion. I blend Super 8, digital video, and real audio to create something that brings you right back—to the way you laughed, the sound of your vows, the way the light hit the trees. It’s not about a highlight reel. It’s about telling the truth of your day in a way that feels intimate and true.
family & couples
These sessions are a love letter to your right-now life. Whether it’s a cozy morning at home, a walk through your favorite spot, or a season you never want to forget—I’m here to document the little gestures and big feelings that make your story yours. We don’t force it. We just let it unfold.
Want to get a feel for how it all comes together? The archives are where you’ll find full stories—weddings, family sessions, everyday moments—told through photos and films. It’s less about perfection, more about presence. Take a look and see what speaks to you.

At this time, I only offer one or the other per event—either photography or videography, not both. I’m a one-woman show, and I care too much to split my attention. I’d rather show up fully in one role and give you my best.
002 / 006
Absolutely! Traveling to document love stories is one of my favorite parts of this work. Travel is simply added on to your chosen package, and I’m happy to chat through details when you inquire.
003 / 006
Oh yes. I love weaving analog film into both photo and video work—35mm for photos and Super 8 for motion. Film can be added to any collection, whether you’re booking me for a wedding, a family session, or anything in between.
004 / 006
Honestly, I hope it feels like working with a friend. I’m based in the Midwest but travel often, and I love getting to walk through different seasons of life with my people—whether we’ve just met or we’ve been working together for years.
005 / 006
I typically deliver around 100–150 images per hour of coverage, but it really depends on the flow of the day. Your final gallery will grow naturally from what’s unfolding—and I never hold back on the good stuff.
006 / 006
For weddings and elopements (especially destination ones), the earlier the better. I usually book 12–15 months out. For lifestyle sessions, I have more seasonal flexibility—reach out and I’ll let you know what’s open!

There's something sacred about slowing down enough to truly see. In a world that moves too quickly, I believe in creating space for genuine connection —capturing the gentle whispers, lingering embraces, and unscripted joy that define your most precious relationships.
Documentation isn't just about preserving what something looked like, but how it felt. The way light softens across skin, how time seems suspended in a quiet moment, the texture of real emotion—these elements deserve to be preserved with intention. My camera becomes a witness to your story, translating fleeting moments into tangible treasures that grow more meaningful with each passing year.
