REAL FEELS YOU CAN REVISIT
With intention, honesty, and a whole lot of trust, we’ll create a day that isn’t rushed or overproduced. Leaving space for real moments to happen. And I’ll be there for all of it, documenting it as it unfolds.
Holding Space for What Actually Matters
There’s something no one really prepares you for. How fast your wedding day moves. It’s a blur in the best and worst ways. One minute you’re getting ready, the next you’re being pulled into hugs, conversations, timelines… and suddenly it’s over.
And in between all of that? There are moments you miss. Not because they weren’t important, but because you were busy living something really big. That’s where I come in. My job isn’t just to photograph what your day looked like. It’s to pay attention to the things you don’t always get to see. Your partner’s face before you walk down the aisle. Your mom trying not to cry (and failing). Your friends losing their minds on the dance floor. The quiet, the chaos, the in-between moments that don’t make it onto a timeline but somehow mean everything later. Because the truth is... these photos will matter more as time goes on, not less.
Years from now, when things feel different, when people change, when life softens or sharpens around you… these images become anchors. Proof of how it felt. Who was there. What it meant. But for that to happen, you have to actually be in your day. Not performing it. Not stressing over it. Not worrying about whether you’re doing it “right.” Just… living it. I’ll guide you when you need it. Step in when things feel uncertain. Step back when something real is unfolding.
No stiff posing. No pulling you out of moments that matter just to recreate something that looks good. Just honest documentation of what’s already happening, and the awareness to catch what you didn’t even realize was. At the end of the day, I’m not just there as your photographer. I’m there as someone in your corner. Someone paying attention. Someone making sure none of it slips by unnoticed. So you can feel it fully now, and hold onto it later.
I loved being around Alaynna!
I loved being around alaynna. Not only did all of my photos turn out ABSOLUTELY beautiful but she was such a wonderful human and genuinely was able to make every session such a fun time. I would 100% recommend her to everyone i come across needed a photographer.
My Process
1.Making the Connection
Every love story starts with a hello. For me, it begins when you reach out. No generic replies, no scripts. Just a real conversation. That’s where the magic begins, when we start to know you.
2.The Heart-to-Heart
To capture your story authentically, I need to hear it. We’ll connect over Zoom (or coffee / wine if you’re local), talk about your wedding, your quirks, your favorite moments. The things that make you you. If it feels like a fit, we’ll send a custom proposal tailored to your day.
3.Planning With Purpose
Years behind the camera have taught me what matters most. Timelines, vendor connections, light, and those fleeting in-between moments. I’ve got you COVERED. You’ll walk into your day with a clear plan, confident that nothing will be missed.
4.Engagement & Connection
This is where the real fun begins. In locations that mean something to you, we’ll laugh, move, and play, all while capturing your story in a way that feels effortless and real. These sessions aren’t just photos; they’re a chance to connect before your wedding day.
5.Your Wedding Day
I arrive EARLY (coffee in hand with a billion extra espresso shots), ready to capture it all. The big moments, the quiet glances, the chaos that turns into magic. You get to be fully present, trusting us to preserve the raw, unscripted energy of your day in every frame.
Editing is an art, and your story deserves care. Within 6 - 8 weeks, your private online gallery will arrive, filled with images that feel alive and true. With options for prints and custom Heirloom Albums, these memories will live on... now, forever, and for generations to come.
A Chapter in Your Story
Your engagement is a fleeting season, full of quiet moments, laughter, and the little details that make your love unmistakably yours. An engagement session gives you the chance to pause the planning, soak in each other, and celebrate this chapter before the wedding day arrives.
I’ll capture you in the spaces that mean something, your favorite spots, your go-to outfits, the small gestures that are purely you. These sessions aren’t posed, they’re lived-in, real, and a reflection of your love as it exists right now.
Beyond the photos, this is where we connect. You’ll get comfortable in front of the camera, I’ll note the moments that spark genuine joy, and together we’ll create images that feel effortless, moody, and true. These images don’t just capture a day, they capture a season of anticipation, love, and everything in between.
Your Story, Bound in Ink and Emotion
The Heirloom Album
Your wedding day wasn’t a collection of files or fleeting snaps. It was a storm of laughter, stolen glances, and messy, perfect love. Your Heirloom Album is where all of that lives, tangible and untouchable, ready to be relived again and again.
We’ll craft a bold, moody, and unapologetically you album that feels like your day: raw, emotional, and unforgettable. Each page is curated with intention, designed to be held, flipped through, and maybe even cried over. Fingerprints? Encouraged. Tears? Absolutely welcome.
This isn’t just an album. It’s your legacy, your story, your love, made to last for this lifetime, and the next.
YOU DESERVE TO FEEL YOUR DAY, NOT PERFORM IT
Your wedding isn’t a photoshoot. It’s a living, breathing, chaotic, emotional day. I’m there for all of it. The quiet, the loud, the in-between. The real.
