hello 2022 brides? are you out there!?

HELLO! It’s me, stepping in from wedding season to tell you, yes YOU! that yes! you should click that contact me link and get in touch with me because I’d absolutely love to be a part of your fall / winter 2022 or winter 2023 weddings!

It always has this time in the summer where it’s GO GO GO…but I need to make sure you’re being reached and told I have time for you :) I want to talk to you, and I absolutely LOVE winter weddings!!

So in order to give myself some job security, and you some encouragement ;) let’s do this! Get in touch so I can hear all about your plans, and you can get excited to share them with me!

Aimee + Steve | Married at the Renaissance Faire

I could not wait to shoot this wedding! The renaissance faire! It definitely didn’t disappoint. A day filled (for me!) with candids and keeping my photographer eye open to shooting without any direction at all. And, for Aimee + Steve, a day filled with all their favorite things they’ve ever wanted to share on their wedding day!

Shanda + Kayla | married at Brewdog USA!

K I have to just touch on having a safe wedding during a pandemic, because like, if you’re getting married? There should be some level of gratefulness + sense of respect to the fact that there are a great great deal of people in the USA who have lost their lives, and many more who have lost someone they love. So, showing up for your love, for me, for MANY vendors I know, is absolutely an honor. I’m grateful that I have work right now. Glad our economy can support workers in many fields on many levels when it comes to weddings….but, I just have to take a single moment to remind the couples + bridal parties that this is a privilege. No doubt to see it any other way. Your wedding is my workplace. Your guests are the people I am so happy to serve. stepping off soapbox

As you’ll see, Kayla + Shanda were lovely, graceful, and beyond caring about being respectful to those family + friends + vendors around them, they absolutely shone on their wedding day. Thanks for having me, ladies! I’m glad to have witnessed your love.

Christina + Matt | Married at Orchard House

So here we are. In a world of wedding planning, wedding shooting (?) in a pandemic. So where do you start? HOW DO YOU EVEN KNOW? I honestly can’t imagine being in the position that you guys out there might be in. I can start, though, by talking about a venue that has opened up their space to accommodate those of you who might be looking to be married in a more intimate setting - The Orchard House in Granville. The pine forest is nothing short of magical, and I’m here to say that even if you weren’t expecting to plan a private elopement with just a few of your closest family members, you will still feel special if you choose this route. This wasn’t an elopement, It was from September 2019, but I think you’ll get the way that it can be special for events large + small.
