A little preview into Macie + Alex’s wedding day.

Macie told me she wanted her wedding to feel relaxed, intimate, and reminiscent of a 90s wedding day. She even got her mom’s wedding dress customized to wear 🥹 These two really did the best job creating a day that was so unique to them.

Following their ceremony, they had a private dance together in the same gazebo where we took some of their engagement photos, which was a sweet full-circle moment. Their reception was at the patio space of a local bar and they had live music! Her step sister, Abby, even got to perform on stage naturally wowing us all. All of the little personal touches throughout the day just made everything all the more special.

I’m so happy for these two and love that I was able to stick around and celebrate you both and your future together ❤️

What’s better than one bride? Two brides!

Eternally grateful that Em + Frank chose me to document their wedding day ❤️ These two really are such beautiful souls, and getting to know them throughout this season of life has made their day feel extra special to me.

It’s so apparent how perfectly they complement one another and it wasn’t just something I noticed. Their family and friends talked about their selflessness, strength, and kindness both individually, and as a couple, throughout the entire day. You could feel just how loved and supported their relationship is by the people who know them best.

From their beautiful love story, to the gorgeous venue, to every incredible vendor who helped bring their vision to life, Em + Frank’s wedding day is one that will be permanently ingrained in my memory.

Y2K romance, denim edition 💿🦋

This was one of my concepts from the Pegasus: Photo Experience event I hosted earlier this summer. Jillian + DeSean really ate this shoot up!!! I loved seeing all the pose ideas from the attendees, along with the couple embracing the attitude and all the little details that made this feel straight out of the early 2000s.

Sunset engagement photos with Adrianna + JJ 🌅

They chose their family farm for their session. The same spot where JJ proposed, and it just made the photos that much sweeter. We spent the evening strolling around and chasing the sunlight until we truly got the most perfect sunset.

One incredible night and two baddie female EDM artists at Pegasus: After Dark 🔥🎧🖤

This was the second part of Ailan Truong and I’s event hosted in Kansas City. My best friend poured her heart and soul into this after-party experience. She booked incredible artists, literally flew JEANIE out from California!!! She created a space that wasn’t only for music, but for bringing people together. You could quite literally feel the energy in the room. I’m beyond proud of her for organizing and hosting her first show!

Also, taking a little moment for myself because I genuinely have only photographed one show. Back to the time when I knew nothing about the fact that cranking your ISO in this environment is a must 😂 Catch me present day, actually knowing what I’m doing and being able to document a show like this.

I truly had the most fun not only capturing these moments, but meeting people in the crowd while genuinely just vibing and having a good time. Here’s to perhaps the start of more show photography to come 👀

Rooted in love 🌱🦋🌞

When this concept first came to mind, I immediately thought of Nevada + Brandon. They carry the kind of energy that makes you want to slow down—to notice the wind through the trees, the warmth of the sun, and the quiet beauty of simply existing together.

Two beautiful souls who radiate light, love, and a connection that feels as natural as the earth beneath them. They didn't just step into this vision—they became it. You two brought every detail to life and tied this entire concept together in a way only you could.

Me screaming “CUTEEE” over every photo I edited of Max + Aaron! Had to share these sweet little love birds, and naturally we had to take a few moments just for Max as well bc he is indeed iconic.

Anyone and everyone deserves to feel welcomed, celebrated, and seen in front of my camera. I’m proud to photograph all kinds of love stories, this month and every month 🌈

To see your vision for a styled shoot come to life is quite the amazing experience if you ask me. Truly none of this would’ve been possible without the most incredible models and vendors!!! 🌿

I’m so grateful for this industry and the community it continues to bring me. There’s so many creative, talented souls out there and to be able to support one another and create art like this together is something I’ll always cherish.
