I seriously had so much fun during this ferry adventure engagement session with these two lovely humans!!

this is what it’s all about. capturing people as they are. capturing the sweet tender moments and the fun, playful ones too!

I know I say this a lot, but I AM SO FREAKING GRATEFUL I get to do this for a living.

💕 a moment for all the little ✨ glimmers✨ that I get to capture throughout your wedding or elopement day. I love noticing all the little details-I believe they are just as important as the big ones.

memorabilia of loved ones that are there in spirit, your favorite flowers, the perfume you choose to wear, your rings, invites, hand sewn hankies your grandma made for all the happy tears, and whatever else that makes your day you.

that’s what I love to capture the most! 🥹

can’t wait to try out this new point and shoot film camera!! film has always inspired me- I like the nostalgia of it, the way it looks and the way you really have to take a moment and slow down with it.

I’ve been exploring more and more with it and if all continues to go well I will definitely be incorporating this more into client shoots and weddings/elopements!

If you want to practice with me in the meantime, hit a girly up! 💕 📸
P.S No Shih Tzu’s were harmed in the making of this video 😂

The part where Ashton + Emma get engaged in the mountains of the PNW 🦋⛰️💛

I left this shoot feeling so grateful that I get to call this my job. I get to spend time with the sweetest humans, document such a special season of their lives, and have so much fun doing it. 🥹

That’s one thing about working with me-

I don’t believe your photos should feel like a photoshoot. I’ll always give you direction, but I’m never going to force you into stiff poses that don’t feel like you. Instead, we’ll wander, laugh, and let moments unfold naturally so your gallery feels like you.

✨ 2027 books are open, and I still have a few 2026 dates available. If this feels like your vibe, I’d love to document your story. Link in bio!

just a few things I don’t ever want to forget 😌

that life is made up of small moments.

it’s fun to dream about the destination, but the journey is just as beautiful.

it’s not about how much you’ve accomplished, but how much joy you felt along the way.

life, with all its ups and downs, is still beautiful.

and things don’t have to be perfect to hold magic. 🧚 🌞 💕
