Okay besties, feral little business owner reminder incoming… 😂🤍

First of all — THANK YOU. Seriously. Every booking, share, recommendation, comment hyping me up, and every person trusting me to third-wheel their lives with a camera means more than I can explain. This business has grown so much because of all of you and I never want that to get lost in the “official business post” stuff! 🫶

BUTTTT your girl also has to keep herself semi organized before the editing goblin completely takes over…💀

And honestly… I hate to be this person 😂 but:

✨ To officially book and lock in your session or wedding date, I do require a 50% non-refundable retainer. Unfortunately I can’t hold dates without it because busy season gets WILD and I’ve learned I absolutely cannot rely on my brain alone anymore! 😂

✨ I do offer a discount if sessions/weddings are paid in full at booking!

✨ Remaining balances are due before your session/event date unless we’ve talked and set up something different beforehand! And honestly? If life is life-ing and you need to communicate about payments, PLEASE do. I’m a normal person juggling a full-time 9-5, editing until my eyeballs twitch, surviving on caffeine, trying to keep three dogs alive, and listening to them dramatically sigh because they think I should be taking them on a walk instead of answering emails! 😂

✨ Any discounted sessions, model calls, giveaway sessions, or creative concept pricing are offered in exchange for permission to post and share the images publicly for my portfolio, social media, website, advertising, etc. Those sessions honestly end up being some of my FAVORITES because they let me try all the weird cinematic feral ideas constantly running through my brain.✨

Behind every gallery is usually:
• still OBSESSING over your session/weddings days or even months later
• me driving home talking to myself about photo ideas
• editing at unhealthy hours
• crying over good lighting
• reorganizing my entire schedule 14 millions times
• saying “JUST ONE MORE PHOTO” 37 times
• and my husband asking if I’m ever coming to bed 😂

So genuinely, thank you endlessly for supporting this dream of mine while I balance real life and creative chaos at the same time. I appreciate you all more than you know!!! 🤍

🚨 I fear weddings have permanently altered my brain chemistry…

Like… I hear one emotional speech and suddenly I’m fighting for my life behind the camera. Crying during vows. Hyping up strangers on (and off) the dance floor. Thinking about your first dance while I’m trying to grocery shop three days later. 😂🤍

Which means it’s officially time to open more spots for my ✨FILL THE CALENDAR WEDDING SPECIAL✨ before I accidentally adopt every couple I photograph!!!👹

If your dream wedding feels like:
✨ happy tears and uncontrollable laughter
✨ flash photos that look straight out of a movie
✨ real moments over stiff posing
✨ emotional chaos in the best way
✨ your people absolutely destroying the dance floor
✨ photos that bring you right back to the moment…

then honestly?? We’d probably get along immediately! 😂

HERE’S WHAT YOU GET:
📸 8 hours of wedding coverage
📸 engagement session
📸 anniversary session
📸 timeline/planning assistance
📸 online gallery
📸 fully edited high-resolution images
📸 flexible payment plans
📸 and so much more!!!

ALL FOR $1800
✨ travel included within one hour of Columbus, Indiana 👀

And yes, your photographer absolutely WILL:
✨ lay in mud/gravel/the street for the shot
✨ hype you up like it’s a professional sport
✨ tear up during speeches
✨ become best friends with your bridal party and grandparents
✨ yell “WAIT THIS IS EVERYTHING DO IT AGAIN” at least 50 times
✨ come home physically and emotionally exhausted while my three dogs stare at me like I abandoned them for another wedding weekend 😂

I don’t care if your wedding is:
🤍 intimate & messy
🤍 elegant & formal
🤍 backyard party vibes
🤍 tiny courthouse ceremony
🤍 downtown rooftop energy
🤍 random field at sunset
🤍 full destination madness

I just want to capture it exactly the way it felt!🫶

Let’s chat before these spots are gone because my calendar is already starting to look mildly unhinged!😂

Unfortunately for everyone around me, my brain has entered its annual “feral creative photographer summer” era and now I have a concerning amount of chaotic session ideas that NEED to happen immediately!!! 😭☀️📸

So here’s the deal —

I’m looking for singles, couples, besties, people with good energy and zero fear of looking a little ridiculous for the art™ who are willing to let me fully spiral artistically in exchange for discounted session pricing.😂

These are NOT:
❌ stiff posing
❌ fake smiling at leaves
❌ Pinterest copy-and-paste sessions

These ARE:
✨ cinematic chaos
✨ blurry movement
✨ sweat, sunsets, flash, nostalgia
✨ “wait this looks like a scene from a coming-of-age movie”
✨ me aggressively saying “OH MY GOD WAIT AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN”

I’m keeping the concepts secret for now because honestly the mystery is part of the experience. 👀

But just know… these sessions are about to go unnecessarily hard.

Message me if you’re down to participate in my artistic nonsense this summer! 📸✨🤍

✨The Cowan Wedding | Part Two✨

By this point the timeline was blurry, the dance floor was packed, and every five seconds someone was either crying, cheering, or chugging a beer. 10/10 reception energy honestly.

Race week in Indy and these two still managed to make the whole city feel quiet for a minute. Just soft smiles, their sweet fur baby, chaos in the background, and the kind of love that looks easy! 🏁🖤🤍

Can’t wait to celebrate these two officially tying the knot this September! 📸✨🤍
