What a beautiful way to start the 2026 wedding season. It was such a joy celebrating these two and capturing their story. Seeing them fully present, soaking in every moment and celebrating with their loved ones was a great reminder of what matters most. My goal is for you to experience your day to the fullest while I capture it authentically as it unfolds.

When emotions rise to the surface and you’re fully in it, tears fall without holding back, and laughter fills the room with a kind of joy you can feel.

All because of the love that surrounds you,
and the love you share with each other.

This is what a wedding day is truly about.
Love, emotion, and being present with those who have been part of your story along the way.

And how blessed am I to capture it all for you.

Flowers have always been one of my favorite details to photograph on a wedding day. They bring elegance, texture, and intention to a space in a way that feels effortless and refined.

That appreciation has grown over time. I’ve actually thought that if I weren’t a photographer, working with florals would have been just as satisfying. It’s likely why I’m drawn to documenting them.

This summer wedding at The Windmill Island was a beautiful example of that. A day shaped by florals, color, and an atmosphere that felt joyful.

Flat lay details will always have my heart.

They’re quiet, intentional, and require a thoughtful eye on a wedding day. From gathering textures and color, to finding the right light and balance, these images take patience and care. But they tell such an important part of the story.

This invitation suite from is a perfect example. Thoughtfully designed, timeless, and beautifully crafted, it deserved to be documented with the same level of intention that went into creating it.

These are the details couples spend months choosing, and I love giving them the space and attention they deserve.

I’ve been holding onto this one for a while.

This shoot came to life through collaboration and a team of creatives who truly care about the details. From the elegance of Hannah & Atticus and the way they moved together, to the flawless makeup, beautiful styled florals, and refined design throughout, every element was intentional and considered.

Grateful to finally share this work and to create alongside people who bring such care and artistry to what they do.

You don’t have to perform on your wedding day.

You don’t need to be “on” every moment,
or feel like you’re playing a role for the camera.

The most compelling weddings are the ones where couples feel settled,
secure in their choices,
and present with each other.

When there’s space to breathe and move with intention,
the day unfolds with an ease you can feel.
That ease comes from trusting the professionals you’ve chosen
and allowing your photographer and creative team to lead with care.

Lilli and Max’s engagement session was the perfect blend of timeless romance, effortless style and meaningful moments—set against the dreamy backdrop of Lake Michigan’s shore. The couple first met at Aquinas College through mutual friends, and their connection only deepened from there. When it...

What if your wedding photos felt like you?

Refined. Intentional. True to your story.

The way you move together.
The elegance in the details.
The quiet confidence that this day was made for you.

When imagery feels authentic to who you are, it becomes more than a collection of photographs, it becomes your story, told with artistry and heart.

Because timeless imagery comes from presence, not perfection.

Grateful for an afternoon filled with connection, growth, and the kind of conversations that truly inspire. Gather & Grow was such a beautiful reminder of the power of community and the people who make it thrive.

A first touch is more than just a moment. It’s a chance to be fully present with each other before the day begins. And that’s exactly what Emma and Austin chose to do. A quiet pause to laugh together, to cry together, and to let the anticipation build for everything still to come.

The kind of memory that lingers long after the wedding day itself.

Got to visit for a lovely networking event and couldn’t help but take in the beauty around every corner. From the timeless tablescape design to the charm of the gardens, this place is elegance through and through.

Thank you to the Greencrest team for creating such a warm and intentional space for connection, and for treating us to such a lovely experience.
