This is for couples who want something real, and artfully captured.
You want the honest moments, the people you love, and photos that bring you right back to how it all felt, every time you look at them.
Unposed, emotional photos
over stiff and staged
Direction that feels natural
so you never feel awkward
Story-forward coverage
the full feeling, not just highlights
Space to be present on your day
not performing for the camera
A keepsake you’ll return to
photos that bring you back, every time
Real, unposed, and beautifully held.
You get just enough direction to feel confident, and enough space to stay present. Portraits feel easy, not performative. The day moves naturally, the moments stay real, and the photos come back refined, emotional, and true to you.
The process
Here’s how it unfolds.

On the day, I’ll guide gently when it helps and step back when it doesn’t. You stay present with your people while I catch what’s real.
— THE KEEPSAKE
You receive a curated gallery that holds the full story—refined, emotional, and true to you.

FAQ
A few things you might be wondering.
Do you photograph all kinds of weddings?
I focus on intimate, story-led weddings—days that feel personal, unposed, and real. If you want photos that feel emotional and artfully framed (without turning the whole day into a photoshoot), you’re in the right place.
What if We’re awkward in front of the camera?
Don't worry! You won’t be left guessing what to do, and you won’t be over-directed either. I’ll guide you with simple prompts, keep things moving, and give you space to settle into each other so it feels natural fast.
Do you still do family formals?
Absolutely. We’ll keep them efficient and easy. I’ll help you plan a simple list ahead of time, then we’ll move through it quickly so you can get back to your people.
Do you travel for Weddings?
Yes. I’m based in Ann Arbor, Michigan and happy to travel wherever you’re headed. If you’re planning outside my area, just share your location and date and I’ll let you know what’s possible.
How far in advance should we reach out?
Whenever you can. Some dates book far out, but I also take last-minute weddings when availability allows. If you’re unsure, reach out anyway—worst case, I’ll point you in a helpful direction.
What if we don’t have a planner?
No problem. I’m not your planner, but I am very used to days needing a little structure. I can help you think through the flow, portraits timing, and what needs to happen when, so the day feels smooth and not overly produced.
How many photos will we receive, and when?
You’ll receive a curated gallery that tells the full story, not just highlights. The exact number depends on coverage and what your day looks like, but you can expect a complete set of images with plenty of in-between moments. After you inquire, I’ll share delivery timing and what to expect based on your plans.
How do we book?
Just send an inquiry through the contact form with your date, location, and a few details about what you’re planning. I’ll respond with availability and the next step, then we’ll make it official with a contract and retainer.
Can you help us build a wedding-day timeline?
Yes—especially around portraits and the moments you want documented most. I’ll help you choose timing that looks good, feels realistic, and keeps the day from turning into a rushed checklist.
What if it rains or something runs late?
We’ll stay flexible! Weather and delays happen, and they don’t have to ruin anything, they're part of the story. I’ll help adjust on the fly so you can stay present and the story still gets captured beautifully.
