Let’s be real, getting in front of a camera can feel a little awkward at first, but that’s where I come in. You deserve more than just beautiful photos—you deserve an experience that feels effortless, meaningful, and true to you.
From our first conversation to the final gallery delivery, I’m here to support you. I’ll help guide you through timelines, locations, and best lighting while ensuring you have the freedom to soak in every second of your day. No stiff poses, no forced smiles—just you, your love, and the raw, beautiful emotions that make your story yours.
Your love isn’t one-size-fits-all, and your wedding photos shouldn’t be either. I focus on capturing the unscripted moments—the laughter, the tears, the quiet in-between glances—that make your day uniquely yours. Through a mix of documentary-style storytelling and artistic direction, I create images that transport you back to how it all felt.
If you’re dreaming of an intimate, adventurous elopement, or a big extravagant wedding I’m ready to go wherever your love takes you. Whether it’s hiking to a secluded overlook, running barefoot on the beach, or cozying up in a cabin in the mountains, I’ll be there to capture every breathtaking, heart-pounding moment.
When the day is over, all that remains are the memories—and your photos. I don’t just take pictures; I create a time capsule of your love, filled with warmth, movement, and soul. Your gallery will be more than images—it will be a tangible reminder of the love you shared and the adventure you began together.
Just you, your partner, and a breathtaking backdrop, elopements strip away the noise and focus on what truly matters: your love. I’ll be there to document every raw, intimate moment. No stress, no pressure—just the two of you, exactly as you are.
Your wedding day is a whirlwind of emotions, laughter, happy tears, and unforgettable moments, and I’m here to capture it all. My goal is to document your day as it unfolds, so you can relive every feeling for years to come. I blend candid storytelling with timeless imagery, ensuring that your love shines through every frame.
This is where it all begins! Engagement sessions are all about capturing your love story in a way that feels natural and true to you. I’ll make sure your session feels like an experience, not just a photoshoot. Think effortless movement, lots of laughter, and photos that feel like you.
Fill out my inquiry form, and we’ll chat about your vision, answer any questions, and make sure we’re the perfect fit.
Once your contract is signed and the retainer is paid, we’ll plan all the fun details—from locations to timelines.
On your wedding day or session, I’ll guide you through a relaxed, effortless experience while documenting every authentic moment.
"Emma’s images stunned me to the point where I could hardly call them photographs- they are art... I look back now and consider myself a bit of a chaotic bride and planner but having Emma's reassurance and flexibility was something I unknowingly appreciated and will always be grateful for...when I was looking through the gallery I was seeing images I had no idea she even took! And there were sweet, little moments captured all throughout the day. It was exactly the magical-outdoors-whimsical wedding photos I had hoped for."
"If we could Emma more than five stars, we would! She has an exceptional talent for capturing raw emotions and fleeting moments. While we loved the "classic" bride & groom shots that she took, it was her candid photos of us dancing, laughing, and loving each other that truly stood out. From the beginning, Emma was incredibly responsive and made sure we were always informed about the timeline and details of our arrangement. Her kind and easygoing nature made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout our big day."
"Emma is amazing to work with!! I did a boudoir and engagement session with her. I was nervous for the boudoir but she is incredibly sweet and made me feel comfortable and beautiful. Our engagement photos are stunning and really capture us as a couple. For our wedding, Emma captured the moments beautifully and I cannot thank her enough. I am so impressed and thankful to have had the pleasure of working with her.
She has a keen eye for beautiful backdrops - after our ceremony she whisked us down the road for an intimate photoshoot by the West River. These are some of our favorite photos from the wedding. Our other favorite set of photos are the shots of our guests enjoying themselves - these photos really captured the feel of our wedding. Our photo book is gorgeous - Emma took care in designing a beautiful book and selected photos from our favorites that really captured the story of our wedding weekend perfectly.
Emma is the most thoughtful, easy going and fun photographer. She made my couples photo shoot feel so comfortable and the photos I received exceeded my expectations by a million."
I don't like to put an exact number on final images since every session is different but I do take a lot of photos so I can say that typically there will be about 100+ for shorter sessions, and 600-800 for a 6 hour wedding. I don't hold any images back but I won't send 10 of the same exact image and count that towards your gallery.
Your gallery will have variety and be carefully curated to tell the best story possible from your wedding day or other important milestone in your life.
Editing and curating is a lot of the photography process and why you hired me as your photographer so no, I don't give RAWS. Shooting in RAW gives more detail in the photos allowing me to make edits. Photos will be in JPEG format when delivered to you. I will do my best to have my editing be consistent with my style of work but please keep in mind different lighting and scenarios can vary the outcome of photos.
Unless the weather is crazy and could damage my equipment or is unsafe we will carry on with the shoot. If the weather is bad enough and we need to cancel the shoot or the event, I will work with you to reschedule.
While I know these photos mean a lot to you please do still ask if it's possible to reschedule if you really don't want to shoot on a day where inclement weather is predicted.
Things can change at the last minute and a lot of the time amazing photos do come out of the most unpredictable weather!
When you book a regular session I require a 50% retainer to secure your date. The balance is due before of the day of the session.
Weddings and events will incur a separate 30% retainer of your final wedding package amount upon receipt of your invoice with the final amount due one month before your wedding.
If you cancel a shoot the retainer fee is legally non-refundable and you will have to submit a new retainer fee for a canceled shoot. If the shoot must be rescheduled due to inclement weather or an extreme unforeseen circumstance then I will work with you to reschedule.
You are not alone! Most of my couples tell me this before their session, and guess what? By the end, they’re laughing, moving, and feeling completely at ease. I guide you through the whole process with natural prompts and movement-based posing, so you never feel stiff or forced. Just show up, be yourselves, and I’ll take care of the rest.
