Meet Your Elopement Photographer!

The Most Midwest Midwesterner you’ll find

You know that kid who was always quiet in school with their nose in a book, actually stoked about silent reading time? YUP, THAT WAS ME!
*insert midwestern wave*

To be honest, it’s STILL me! And now, I believe in romanticizing the hell out of your life, following your heart even if it's scary, and living life through experiences. I believe in soulmates, the magic of the universe, manifestation, the invisible string theory, and yup, even aliens!

When you work with me, you get someone who’s determined to make your dreams come true. I support couples from ALL angles - and capture your love story in the same way! Because you deserve to relive your elopement as if it’s the greatest romance novel you’ll ever read!! (Spoiler alert: IT IS!)
