To tell a wedding story that will be passed down and shared for generations to come, you need a professional. You need someone who strives to not only capture each moment, but also the way it FEELS; with timeless, romantic, and candid brilliance. Your day may be adventurous, playful, unique, or sentimental but it’s authentically you and it will be beautiful. 

My goal is for you to have incredible wedding photos while having fun in the process! The result is a mixture of heart-tugging photojournalism, genuine candid moments, and passionate editorial portraits that illustrate your love for one another. The best part is, you will love every moment!

Over the past 15 years and hundreds of weddings photographed, I have found that my couples view the investment in their wedding photography as one of the most important expenditures they will be making for their wedding. They recognize the value in documenting their day for generations to come; knowing that their flowers will fade, cake will be eaten, and the dancing will come to an end. It is the images that will remain to enjoy for the rest of your lives.

Imagine this with me:

6 months after your big day, you will wake in the morning to see a gorgeous image framed above your bed of you two wrapped in one another's arms on a mountain summit. You will have a hand made, custom designed wedding album on your coffee table to share with friends and family when you entertain. Your home will highlight your love story on it's walls and remind you of the value of what you're creating together every single day from now on.

Lovely, right? I agree.

I've added my most popular wedding and elopement packages for you to get an idea of how all of this will become a reality! I frequently customize these package to fit the needs of my couples but this will give us a great starting point! 

Weddings are events that include more than 50 guests and require coverage of at least 6 hours or more.

My weddings start at $3500. 

There is no such thing as 'one size fits all' so I would like to talk with you to help discuss exactly what you need so that your wedding package is the perfect fit for you and your wedding celebration!

Let's begin by clarifying some vocabulary:

• Weddings are events that include more than 50 guests and require coverage of at least 6 hours or more. 
• Elopements are intimate events ranging from just the two of you up to a dozen of your most precious people in attendance and these can range from 2-6 hours.

My weddings start at $3550. My elopements begin at $1550.

There is no such thing as 'one size fits all' so I would like to talk with you to help discuss exactly what you need so that your wedding or elopement package is the perfect fit for you and your wedding celebration!

Step 1- A quick 10-15 minute phone call to help me understand what you are looking for and get to know you a bit better. This is a great time for you to get a first impression and see if I might be a good fit.

Step 2- We've talked, you've spent some time soaking up my portfolio and chilling on my social media, and you've decided that I'm your girl! 

Step 3- We meet over a glass of wine or cup of coffee. Since much of my work is destination photography, this meeting may happen over Facetime or Skype, but if you live in Juneau, Alaska, we will do it up close and personal. During this meeting, we will discuss the options for your wedding photography and choose the best package for you.

Step 4- I send over your digital wedding agreement and we are off to the races, scheduling your engagement session, intimate session and follow-up appointments.

Step 5-  Let's photography your engagement session and send out some save the dates. Do you want to give your soon-to-be spouse a gift they will never forget on the morning of your wedding?! Let's photograph an intimate session and make an album that will blow their mind (they will be super stoked to get to the honeymoon)!

Step 6- You marry the love of your life and I'll be there documenting every beautiful moment. This is where the 'Happily ever after' comes in.

Step 7- 6-8 weeks after your wedding, your wedding gallery will be revealed. If you live in Juneau, during this time you will come to my home office and allow me to pamper you as you see a highlight reel of your wedding day. Next, I provide a guided artwork consultation to help you choose how you want to incorporate the beautiful art we have created into your life with our handmade albums and stunning wall-art and display options. Then I release your online gallery so you can go home and relive your day in full and share your images with the family and friends that have been anxiously awaiting them.

Quality- Luxury wedding photography is always about quality, not quantity. I work with the highest quality professional cameras, lenses, equipment and software to provide the highest quality images possible.  I am a professional with over 15 years in the industry and boast over 200 couples that I now consider friends. I was voted 'The Best Photographer' in Alaska's capital- I am nationally published- and I have photographed weddings all over the world. I have strong relationships with the vendors in the industry and am highly recommended by them and my previous clients. The fine-art prints, wall art and albums I offer are hand made right here in the USA by true professionals that stand behind their work.  I am professionally licensed and insured, which is important.

Persona- Maybe you wouldn't consider this when choosing your photographer, but who they are is important. Do the images you see in her portfolio show couples glowing, connecting and enjoying one another?  If so, that is the work of a photographer putting them at ease; helping them feel comfortable with one another in front of the camera. Let's be real- that isn't a natural feeling! I nearly panic when I am the one in front of the camera! Without a warm spirit on the other side of the lens, you get images that feel 'pinched' and forced. When you meet your photographer you should feel safe and relaxed; like she can handle the vision you have for your day. I have heard from my clients that I made them feel so at-ease and that their guests and family commented on how they enjoyed my presence at the wedding.  That is huge.  I may not be everyone's cup of tea but if I am yours- trust your gut!

Experience- Your wedding photographer should provide you with more than nice photos; you should feel that you had a great experience. It is my goal to help you feel heard, understood, supported and valued from the very first day we meet.  I want you to have clear expectations and know what's coming up next as we take the journey from engagement to marriage.  The way I provide this is by authentic connection and genuine care.  Every couple is given a personal 'portal' to have access to all of their important wedding dates, documents, galleries & album designs in one place! I strive to make your photography process easy for you. I am in your corner and I want you to feel that from start to finish. 

Honesty- Pinterest has bred an entire culture of 'stylized wedding photography' created to inspire brides when planning their wedding day. The images are perfectly curated, the models pre-selected, and there are no wedding day timelines or real-life moments to interfere with flawless photographs. The work you see on my website is from REAL weddings and portraits captured with real couples and real stories. I rarely have time to focus on editorial work, but when I do, I post those as 'Editorial' work on social media, so my clients don't feel misled.

Personal Touch- In order for many wedding photographers to keep up with their crazy schedules, some outsource various parts of their workflow to others, outside of their studio.  When you hire me to photograph your wedding day; you are getting all of me.  Every wedding requires over 25 hours of post processing to create the final product that you will call your own.  I personally select every image used, I adjust any details that will make the image a better one and edit them to fit the style and emotion you hired me to provide.  Every album is designed from scratch for each couple.  And when your final wall art and albums arrive, I deliver them to you myself, when geographically possible.

Reputation- One of the things that makes me most proud is that my couples come back and make me their personal paparazzi for life! With somewhere around 200 weddings under my belt, I have glowing reviews from my clients that tell their experience and how they would choose me again. How I serve the clients before you matters. The relationships I've developed with vendors that trust me and refer me matters. It's all a part of helping you feel confident in your choice to work with me.
