Oregon based wedding photography and videography
documenting love worldwide
For me, being your wedding photographer is about so much more than just snapping photos. When you choose me to document your day, you're going to have me in your corner from the moment we confirm your date. Think of me as your right hand woman for creative planning - making mood boards, photo timelines, and sending you guides full of tips and tricks to help your day go smooth and ensure it's documented exactly the way you dreamed it would be.
35mm Film, Super 8 Video, and short form digital video are available to add to any wedding package.

Boudoir is also a love story- a self-love story. It can also be a beautiful gift for your partner, to gift to them on your wedding day or anniversary, or for any occasion at all. A boudoir session is also one of the best gifts you can give yourself, and the ultimate form of self care.

Travel fees are dependent on the location. Anywhere within one hour of Grants Pass, Oregon is free of charge, and anything outside of that range is based on whether I need to drive or fly, if I'll need lodging, etc. Feel free to send me an inquiry letting me know where you're thinking, and I can answer all of your questions! And be sure to check out my bucket list locations (travel fees are waived for those places!)
how much do you charge for travel?
1,000% yes! I've traveled to California, Colorado, Washington, Costa Rica, and Bali, and this year I'm headed to Hawaii and Mexico for weddings! Let me know where you're planning your big day and be sure to take a look at my bucket list locations (travel fees are waived for these places!)
do you travel for weddings?
For weddings will have a sneak peek of your images within one week, and during the busy season my turnaround time for your fully edited, high-resolution gallery will be available to you within two months. I pay attention to detail in each and every image, and present you with a seamless and truly custom gallery. Turnaround times for portraits are shorter!
how soon will i get my photos?
Yes! Every wedding and portrait session requires a retainer fee for booking, which goes 100% towards your final payment. The remaining balance is due 2-4 weeks before your date, or you can take advantage of my payment plan for your remaining balance. Send me an inquiry to get my full pricing and info guide!
do you offer payment plans?
Any travel within one hour of Grants Pass, Oregon is included within each wedding and portrait package. Anything within driving distance will be priced per mile and whether or not I need lodging. International wedding packages are quoted custom based on location and amount of days you need me for!
How much do you charge for travel?
I encourage all of my wedding clients to book an engagement session with me! This is such an important part of your love story , and having these photos taken by your wedding photographer allows them to seamlessly blend into your custom album design. It's also the easiest way for you to get super comfortable in front of my camera, and for me to get to know your chemistry together! Engagement sessions are included in my top wedding package, can be added to any other package, or purchased completely seperate.
do we need an engagement session?
I do! I shoot on my 35mm film camera here and there throughout each wedding free of cost. You can absolutely add a film package to your wedding day, where you will get as many rolls of film as you choose to add! I love shooting film, the warmth, nostalgia, and vintage feel it gives to each photo is perfect for those romantic memories of your special day. If you'd like a full film add-on in your package, mention it in your inquiry or ask me about it during our consultation!
DO you offer film photography?
Sometimes! I recommend booking a second shooter for larger weddings, and for any wedding if you value the documentary aspect of photography. Having a second shooter provides a second set of eyes, and allows for more moments to be captured throughout your day. Think twice the perspective, twice the moments. I have two photographers who work with me for weddings, and both are wonderful humans who take care in their work, who I trust deeply. I am the sole editor for each wedding so you will always have a seamless gallery when you have two photographers working on your big day.
