<\/p>\nDuring college, my friends and I would go visit state parks to hike and take photos with our phones. That led to getting more serious with photography and eventually having clients request similar photos I was talking with my friends, but for them! Slowly, I started to build a portfolio of portrait and wedding work throughout college and was able to come out of school with enough client work to do it full-time!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I like to go for clean, classic, and moment-focused wedding photography.<\/p>\n
I get to be a part of a family\u2019s highlight moment and the start of a big change for them. It\u2019s one of the happiest days in their lives. Collectively, all of those moments have been my favorite experience.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Ah, yes! I love the moment a couple sees each other for the first time; sometimes that\u2019s during the first look and sometimes during the ceremony. Either way of doing it, that moment for them is so emotional, honest, and pure.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Staying hydrated! When you\u2019re focused on work throughout the day, there aren\u2019t too many moments where you\u2019re able to be intentional, apart from dinner, about drinking water.<\/p>\n

Love this question! For me, choosing the photographer that resonates with a couple is key! I\u2019d recommend to all brides and grooms to look for a photographer whose work is timeless and focused on the moments that happen during the day. A clean and classic look always allows for this!<\/p>\n

Brides who wear jackets for their Fall wedding! I can\u2019t get enough of that trend.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
My bachelor\u2019s degree is in marketing and I have experience working in small business, so I\u2019d imagine something in that area!<\/p>\n
Having space where all of your wedding preparation material lives, is the best! Building your guest list, sending invitations, and having your website all in the same place is a game-changer.<\/p>\n

Joy does last forever, doesn\u2019t it? To me, that means the energy you have for your other doesn\u2019t fade. You want to continue working hard to provide for them, do nice things for them, and gift them kind words.<\/p>\n
