planning for 2025 (and an engagement session at Jorgensen)

TLDR: I want to shoot your “off season” wedding, smaller wedding, or elopement…and in order to encourage you to do that, your pricing quote will reflect a heavy discount to book me up!

If you’re just here for the first time, welcome! I’m glad to have you - here’s a little about me in the shortest and SEO friendly blog post I can make about being a photographer in the greater Columbus area! I love LOVE my job. I’ve talked with lots of photographers who’ve started around the same time as me (14 years ago! wow!) that are feeling like they’re ready to transition out of weddings, but I’m here still quite excited about spending days with people starting their married lives together. A large portion of why I love what I do is that I schedule myself to not burn out. I - gasp - get ready for this…take most of the summer weekends OFFFFFF (!!) because more than loving being a photographer, I love being home with my kids during their summer breaks.

so I’m here to say to you: get in touch with me for your wedding photography…whether you’ve viewed my site and info and pricing, and even if you think your budget doesn’t match up. I get that what I do is a luxury, but also I aim to be as accessible to as many people as I can. If you’re getting married on a Sunday, in November, December, January, through March…you’re my people!! let’s do this and get you amazing photos, amazingly served, at a price that works for you!

From the elegant decor to the heartfelt speeches, every moment was filled with love and joy as Becca and Collin celebrated the beginning of their new life together.

Camp mary orton wedding

I loved getting to spend this day with Ashley + Josh, and knew from the moment we chatted on the phone, how great it would be. I love Camp Mary Orton couples because they have a great mindset about how their wedding will be: relaxed, and feel like home!

What’s great about this location is that an indoor ceremony - ya know, when it’s 80 degrees in April! - doesn’t feel like a consolation. I’ve talked about it before, my number one advice is when picking a venue, make sure your “backup” plan is just as exciting to you as your perfect weather day plan. Here’s how I saw their beautiful day and love all around them!

continuing my instagram series of wearable flowers! spring flowers: daffodils and a few tulips on 3 of my kids. Almost all my loves into one blog post!

A plea to the universe ;)

if there’s anything I’ve learned in this business, it’s that when I share things that feel authentic and true, it attracts couples, humans, and events that feel authentic and true to what I love to shoot. Here’s a look into Cait and Pat’s Jorgensen Farms Oak Grove wedding. When we met to chat about their plans, they mentioned how each of their friends, who play in their Dungeons and Dragon campaign, that got married were gifted weapons specific to their character. Speak no more. What an amazing + unique tradition, I immediately knew our paths crossed for a reason. I love weddings for a whole lot of reasons, but the highest one up there is getting to see people embrace what is important to them + share those things with their loved ones.

so what’s my plea? bring me more of these. Authentic + honest and true to who you are type people, ready to share their love with the world! Get in touch today, and I promise to woo you with deals you can’t pass up!
