One of the best, and probably inadvertent, things about wedding days is that couples show you so clearly what they value. For Samantha and John, that was absolutely their families.

I was so incredibly honored to photograph this beautiful couple!!

Christian and Chaz know what is most important in life and cut straight […]

This sweet couple have been in love since middle school, and on the first weekend in May they celebrated that love with their friends and family. Their youth pastor […]

Usually there is a gap or lull in conversation where I will remember to ask my couples how they met and their story… no such thing here. Meeting Ann and Brett was seriously like being reunited with old friends, we chatted about anything and everything as their engagement session just flowed beautifully (as beautiful as […]

I have known Kelsey since she was in high school and I admit I love social media in that I’ve been able to see her complete some huge goals from afar! She rocked nursing school with a lot of hard work (all the nurses out there are nodding thinking of their own harrowing school experience) […]
