💍 Planning a surprise proposal?

Here's how I help you pull it off without giving away the surprise.
Planning the perfect proposal is exciting… but coordinating the location, timing, photographer, and surprise without your partner catching on can be a little stressful. 😉

When you book me for your proposal, I'll help you plan the details ahead of time so you can focus on one thing: asking the question.
📍 I'll help you plan where I'll be waiting
⏰ We'll coordinate the timing and arrival
🤫 I'll keep a low profile so your partner doesn't suspect a thing
📸 I'll capture the moment as it naturally unfolds
❤️ And afterward, I'll photograph some beautiful just-engaged portraits while the excitement is still fresh.
Whether you're planning an intimate proposal close to home or traveling somewhere special to pop the question, I'm happy to travel wherever your story takes you.

Planning a surprise proposal? I'd love to help you make it unforgettable.

A rehearsal dinner is more than just the night before the wedding—it’s the beginning of the celebration. 🤍
From the little details and thoughtful gifts to the laughter, drinks, family, and friends coming together, these are the moments that deserve to be remembered too.
I loved capturing this beautiful rehearsal dinner and all the people who came together to celebrate the couple before their big day. 🥂✨
Wedding photography isn’t just about the ceremony. It’s about the entire story.

⚔️ When Two Kingdoms Become One ⚔️
Once upon a time, two kingdoms came together at Landis Arboretum to celebrate the love story of Jasmine & Jason. 🖤❤️
From the swords and royal thrones to the woodland setting, every detail of their Game of Thrones–inspired wedding was thoughtfully created to bring their vision to life.
There were vows beneath a beautifully decorated arch, battles with swords, a royal feast, heartfelt toasts, dancing, laughter, and plenty of moments that felt like they belonged in their own epic tale.
But beneath all the fantasy and fun was something even better—the genuine love and joy these two share.

It was such a pleasure to be there to capture their story.
Congratulations, Jasmine & Jason! May your kingdom reign forever. 👑⚔️

Today I had the honor of photographing Edward & Brooke’s wedding right in the middle of a Nor’easter here in Upstate New York. 🌧️🤍

While we didn’t get it quite as heavily as they did downstate, we still had heavy rain, cold temperatures, and some pretty challenging conditions. But honestly? It didn’t matter.

We still got everything done that we needed to. Their wedding was short and intimate, surrounded by the people who care about them most and filled with so much love.

We made the most of the property, found little pockets of opportunity between the rain, and even managed to get some beautiful photographs from the overlook. Sometimes you just have to work with what the day gives you — and today gave us a lot of rain, but it also gave us a lot of heart. 🤍

Congratulations, Edward & Brooke. Thank you for trusting me to be there to capture your day, even when Mother Nature had other plans. 🌧️💍📸

Colleen & Michael 🤍💜
Some weddings just feel different.
From the moment I arrived, it was so clear that Colleen and Michael’s love didn’t just fill the room — it followed them through every room they moved through. Their family was at the heart of their day, and everywhere you looked there were people who genuinely loved them, celebrated them, and wanted to be part of their story.
One of my favorite moments was seeing Sarah and her daughter share a special mother-daughter dance. Mother-daughter dances aren’t something you see at every wedding, which made that moment feel especially meaningful.
And this family was absolutely one of those families who document everything! 🤩 There were cameras and phones everywhere, with family members capturing their own memories right alongside me. Honestly, I loved it. It was such a reflection of how much everyone cared about being present for these moments.
Their wedding also included a beautiful handfasting ceremony, adding an incredibly personal and meaningful element to their vows and celebration.
From the little details to the big moments, this was simply a wedding filled with love, family, laughter, and connection — and I’m so grateful I got to be there to document it. 🤍

Congratulations, Colleen & Michael! It was truly an honor to tell a little piece of your story through photographs.
