You’ve found your person. Now let’s tell your story.
Welcome to chapter one of your forever
Photos allow us to freeze time, to transcend impermanence. They instantly transport us back to moments in time we’ll never get back. And photography is a collaboration, a lot more than just clicking a shutter! It’s about getting to know people and telling their stories, and it’s about helping make your day as magical as you’ve always dreamed.
Whether you’re local, having a small destination wedding, or running off to the woods to elope, I’m here for it all. I’ve traveled all over this great big world of ours and believe me — Washington offers no shortage of incredible vistas to get married under. Let’s plan your amazing day together.
It’s so important to choose vendors you connect with and who understand your vision for your day. If you have a heart for adventures near and far, if you find yourself nostalgic for a moment you’re already in, and if you love the timeless look of film, I’d love to capture your day.
I’ve been chasing adventure since the day I was born (no, literally).
I was born in a snowstorm in the middle of May in the rural Utah mountains. My uncle drove my parents through the snow to the hospital in a beater pickup truck. That sort of set the tone for the rest of my life.
I moved all over the US roughly every three years. Moving around so much, I learned quickly that nothing was ever permanent — except for pictures. Pictures were often all I had of a place or to remind me of friends. Whether it was the Black Hills, my apartment in Tokyo, or my time traveling to and working in North Korea, a lot of those memories have faded but I still have pictures to take me back there.
Before I went full-time into photography, I was an anthropologist. I love learning about people and telling stories through photography. I want to know everything about you both — what do you love, what can’t you stand, what makes your hearts soar? I’m not just there to snap a shutter, I’m there to document and preserve your legacy.
Pictures are your legacy.
And they’re as much for you as they are for the people who love you, both now and in the future.
It’s so important to invest in someone who shares your vision and who you trust to make it a reality. But more than that, the number one most important thing when hiring a wedding photographer is trusting that they’ll capture your legacy in the way you want it captured.
Because trust me: once the moment is gone, it’s gone. Don’t miss a moment of your day.
My Promises to You
Decades of Knowledge
Anyone can photograph a wedding here. It takes a real local to know all the ins and outs of permit acquisition, how to prepare you for your day, arrival times, when the lighting is best, and how to recreate responsibly. I care about this place not just because it’s gorgeous but because I live here.
Empathy
Hear me out — I’m, as Kendrick Lamar would say, an extroverted introvert. I still remember the stress of my wedding. I remember how awkward I felt taking our photos; I never want that for you. My number one non-negotiable is you’ll always feel comfortable on camera. And when you get your photos back, you’ll think “damn, we looked good!”
Fun!
My second non-negotiable: we’ll have fun! Weddings are supposed to be fun, right?! We’ll chat, we’ll crack bad jokes (bring me your favourite dad jokes and puns, please!), and we’ll keep everyone de-stressed. Part of being the main coordinator for your day is taking on that stress and making sure you can enjoy every moment.
A No-Nonsense Attitude
I build out timelines to account for any hiccups, give us time to adjust (say, if we have to wait for the rain to pass or someone is running a few minutes late), and make sure everyone knows what the expectations on the day are. The number one expectation? That you get to tune out the noise and celebrate your love!
Reliable Communication
Even in the midst of wedding season, you’ll never have to wait long for a reply from me. Please reach out anytime, even just to vent to a neutral third party!
Your Memories, Protected
Your memories are just that — yours. They’re always safe with me so you never have to worry about losing them. I dual shoot every wedding, meaning your files are on two memory cards the second the shutter snaps. Those files stay on those memory cards until after I deliver them to you. They get backed up to two locations while I edit (one hard drive, one in the cloud). And they’re always stored in three places (two hard drives with redundancy, one in the cloud) in perpetuity. I know the devastation of having a hard drive crash and losing things you loved. I promise I’ll always have your files so you never have to feel that devastation with your precious wedding day memories.

Why Work With Me
Local Knowledge
If you want someone who knows Washington like the back of her hand, I’m your gal! I moved to Washington in 2011 and have explored all over this great state of ours. Want to elope in Mt. Rainier National Park or the Palouse? I know all the good spots (and the hidden gems, too!)
Creativity
I’ve spent years perfecting my editing style with bright, warm colours that are true-to-life while mimicking the look of film; I’ve even brought 35mm film photography and Super 8 film video back into my repertoire!
Experience
I’m a world-class people-wrangler and know how to keep everyone on task. I can roll with the punches in every situation, put everyone at ease, and never make getting your photos taken feel like a high-stakes job interview! I’ve seen it all and keep cooler than cool under pressure. Photography is about far more than just taking pretty pictures — it’s knowing how to capture the love people have for each other and what makes them unique!
Cultural Competency
Have an important cultural tradition you want to capture? Parents don’t speak much English? I got you. I have degrees in Sociology, History, and a grad degree in International Studies, plus a lifetime of travel and experience living abroad. I also speak eight languages (English, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Irish, and Greek). If it’s important to your identity, we’ll capture it in a respectful, artful way.
