Choosing your wedding photographer? Yeah, it’s kind of a big deal.
This isn’t just someone showing up with a camera — it’s the human who’s going to be with you through nervous giggles, happy tears, dress fluffs, deep breaths, and full-on dance floor chaos. You deserve someone you trust, vibe with, and actually like being around. (Because spending your whole wedding day with someone you can’t stand? Hard no.)
No matter what your love story looks like — love is love, and I’m all in.
Styles come and go. Trends fade. But the real-deal stuff? The way your partner looks at you when you don’t know anyone’s watching? That’s what lasts. The best investment you can make for your wedding day is someone who’ll capture your kind of magic and help you soak it all in — without pulling you out of the moment.
These photos? They’re for now and forever. They’ll live on your walls, in your parents’ frames, and one day, maybe in the hands of your grandbabies. I’ll be there to catch the soft, quiet moments and the wild, laugh-til-you-snort ones. I’ll get the good cries, the details you worked so hard on, and all the in-between stuff you didn’t even know was happening.
If that sounds like what you’re dreaming of, let’s talk.
When you book me, you’re not just hiring a photographer. You’re getting:
• Calm, natural direction without stiff posing
• Help building a photography-friendly timeline
• Someone who fixes your veil and reminds you to breathe
• Emotional awareness during high-stress moments
• Clear communication from inquiry to gallery delivery
• A photographer who genuinely cares about your story
I’ll guide you when you need it. I’ll step back when you don’t.
You stay present — I’ll handle the rest.
I’m based in Fort Wayne and photograph weddings all across Northeast Indiana, as well as Ohio, Michigan, and Illinois — so if you're getting married nearby, you're totally in my zone.
Planning a destination wedding? Babe, say less. I’ll pack my bags. I love a good love story on the road.
"I have one word....PHENOMENAL. She took time out of her crazy work schedule and being a full time mom to capture our beautiful day!!! 11/10 would recommend her! She was kind, funny, and knew what she was doing. She was on top of EVERYTHING." - Jenna Vohs

Wedding coverage starts at $1,800 — and the experience? Pure magic.
I only book 10 weddings a year, so every couple gets my full heart, full energy, and yes… probably a few happy tears right alongside you.
All collections include a full digital gallery and print release, with options to add beautiful printed keepsakes. Select packages also include a second photographer to capture every laugh, tear, and sneaky dance move from multiple angles.
Not sure how much coverage you actually need? Wondering about first looks, timelines, or booking windows?
I created a complete Fort Wayne wedding photography guide that walks you through what to expect, how to structure your timeline, and how to make confident decisions from start to finish.
Tell me everything — your venue, your date, your “OMG, should we elope?” thoughts — I’m here for it all. Need vendor recs? I gotchu.
If vibrant, candid, and emotional storytelling is what you’re after, let’s start the conversation.
The final image count varies based on coverage and flow of the day. Most couples receive several hundred carefully edited images that tell the full story of their celebration.
Indiana weather is unpredictable — but rain often creates romantic, cinematic images. With preparation and flexibility, we adapt and embrace it.
A second photographer is helpful if you want multiple angles during your ceremony, both partners getting ready coverage, and more candid reactions throughout the day. It’s included in select collections for couples who want fuller storytelling coverage.
Most couples book 9–12 months in advance, especially for peak summer and fall dates. Booking early ensures availability and allows time to build connection before your wedding day.
It depends on your timeline and priorities. Intimate weddings may need 4 hours, while full-day celebrations often require 8 hours to document getting ready through reception highlights.
Coverage includes a set number of hours, professional editing, an online gallery, and a print release. Some collections also include a second photographer, engagement sessions, and timeline planning assistance.
