Wedding planning
Wedding vendors play a crucial role in making your big day special. They're a true reflection of who you are and what you love. Collaborating with like-minded creatives is the best way to pull all the finer details together and create something truly amazing.
Finding wedding vendors that are the perfect fit for you means you can truly relax and enjoy your wedding day to the fullest! Over the years, I've had the chance to meet, work with, and become friends with some incredible creatives, and I can't recommend them enough!

Wedding planning and timeline
While I’ll try to document all candid moments during the day, it’s helpful to know any specific groupings, moments, or sentimental details you want included.
These ideas will help you fill out the pre-wedding questionnaire - it’s like a cheat sheet for making sure we snap all the must-have shots in the final wedding timeline, and no one gets left out (not even Uncle Bob's infamous dance moves)!

A first look lets you have a special moment together before your wedding day kicks into full gear. It gives you both a chance to relax and ease those nerves before the ceremony. But remember, it's totally optional! Many couples still love the classic approach of seeing each other for the first time at the altar.
Benefits of doing a first look:

We can take photos right at your venue - in the gardens, by an archway, or in a beautiful architectural spot. If there are scenic areas nearby, like fields, woods, or a lookout, we can slip away for a few extra shots there too. I’ll scout the best light and locations ahead of time so we make the most of it.
Location:
Some couples love a quiet session right after their first look, while others prefer the magic of the golden hour just before sunset. Depending on your schedule and what you enjoy, we might even do both!
When to plan a portrait session:
I love squeezing in some extra portraits of just the two of you! This is your chance to step away from the hustle and soak in the joy of being newly married.
