Taylor and Tylers wedding at hickville trailer palace was nothing short of electric. Come scroll the amazing wedding day of this bad ass couple.

I had a wonderful time getting to know Tori and Bear. They were kind and welcoming. And they had a great venue picked out. When they asked me to photograph their Race and Religious wedding, I couldn’t say no.

A couple’s home is a meaningful part of their lives. For couples like Kait and JJ, this is even more true. It’s an expression of who they are and what’s important to them.

Photo sessions are at their best when the couple is comfortable. I want them to feel comfortable anyway, but the comfort also elevates the photos too. For Anna and Mike, this meant taking their engagement photos at home. I was happy to do it.

I really love the holidays, especially in New York City. When my husband and I lived there, I just remember the magic filling the city during Christmas time. That has never left me, and I have always wanted to document something that felt how I did during that time of the year. Doing a “Christmas” shoot was a must for me, but, of course, with my own twist on it.

You never know where you’re going to end up as a wedding photographer. It’s part of what makes the job so fulfilling. You’re always heading somewhere new, doing something creative. This was true for Taylor and Tyler’s Hicksville Trailer Palace wedding photos too. It was a fun time. Here’s why.

I like challenging myself. I like challenging the couples I work with too. Challenge necessitates creativity, and creativity makes better photos. The challenge here was posing with a lack of elements. After all, there wasn’t much to work with in this desert photoshoot for the couple, Stacy and Kevin.

The desert carries with it the idea of things being harsh and rundown. There’s beauty in the rundown, in the unforgiving. When Vic and Aaron reached out to me, this was the look I wanted to create for them. A photoshoot in the desert doesn’t have to be way out in nowhere though. For Vic and Aaron’s shoot, we chose an area on the fringes of civilization, an area the desert had made its own.

Sometimes I want my photoshoots to be a challenge. Challenges force and inspire creativity. In turn, that creativity creates unique and inspiring work that inspires more creativity. Challenges are good for everyone involved. This was also true for Brittany and Valentino’s couple’s session.

Taking the typical and making it unique. That’s my jam. Although Saguaro Hotel is a popular destination for weddings, Ellysssa and James specifically chose me to create something out of the box for them, and I think we worked so well on that! This really did turn out to be a unique Saguaro Hotel wedding shoot.

For those who want something different. I guess that could be a tagline for me and my work. I just think of it as art and connecting with others, bringing their innermost selves and visions to life. I don’t know if that’s different, but I know Annie and Mike were looking for something different. That’s how we all wound up in Iceland taking some Iceland wedding photos. This is what happened.

I love working with intentional people. If you’ve seen my photography, you know that’s me, and that’s what I do. So, getting to work with others who are the same is fulfilling. That’s the way it was for Aja and Colin’s Boulder elopement at Spruce Pool. Now, let’s get into it.

Intimate and intentional weddings always speak to me. It’s easy to get wrapped up in the dreams and visions of others. And it’s fun to work with them on those visions and dreams. For Whitney and Brian, their visions and dreams centered around a wedding at her dad’s house.

I love taking couples to new places with their photos. I love pushing them. Not to be mean. I’m here to help! But to show them who they can be. With Ellyssa and James’ Venice Beach engagement photos, we found out, and it was great.

There is beauty in simplicity. There is intimacy. When everything else is stripped away, kind of literally here, ha, the truth feels safe to come out. For Kelsey and Bekah, this truth was love. Those two don’t need somewhere to go. They don’t need flowers, dresses, or ceremonies. They only need each other, and their Boulder engagement photos show that.

All my sessions mean something to me. Every single one. Each one is a chance for new expression. Each one is a chance for continued expression. Each one is a chance to see others’ expression. But some sessions mean more than others, like this one with some engagement photos at my grandparents’ home.

Deanna and Sam wanted unique. Not just to be unique but to be their kind of unique. I like that in a couple, and that’s what I want to bring out of them for their photos. This wasn’t hard with Deanna and Sam. They knew what they were looking for and knew I could help them get it. They were looking for me to take some photos after the wedding.

I love couples like Mel and Andy. The couples who’ve never taken professional photos before. The couples who are nervous about it. I want to help them. I want to wow them. I want them to wow themselves. I want them to know they can wow themselves. If I can turn one client’s world upside down, then it’s been a good day. Momma likes to overdeliver for her clients, and she definitely did for this wedding in Tulum.

I can’t quite explain how special it is to document people through different stages of their lives. I shot Chris and Amber’s engagement and wedding a few years ago, and now we got to mark their time moving into parenthood with this family photoshoot.

When Minhee reached out about shooting creative family photos and was up for exploring with some more unusual elements, I was in. Our time in the studio together was so fun and unusual.
