MinnesotA wedding & elopement photographeR
Do you feel it at the top of your head because it makes your brain feel quiet? Or how about in your throat because you get choked up thinking about the people you love? Maybe you feel it in your hands, because physical touch is the way you give and receive love. And maybe you are like me, and you feel love in your chest. Not a subtle, fluttering kind of feeling… but a bright, burning, explosive kind of feeling.
That feeling of unexplainable, undeniable love moves all of us.
That feeling is the story I want to tell - and it starts with you.
Where do you feel love in your body?
Meet Your Photographer
When I look at a photo that is passionate, intentional, and wildly free, my chest feels like it is exploding. I look at images the way you would look at the northern lights shining bright in front of you or the way you would look out from the top of the mountain over the endless landscape ahead of you. I see beauty, and depth, and so many intricate moments and details leading to one second in time. And when my finger hits the shutter those millions of beautiful moments leading up to the present are suddenly frozen in time forever. You and your partner were made for this exact moment in time and by no mistake; that is a story worth documenting.
I am more than just a wedding photographer. I am a safe space for you to share your deepest desires for the most important day of your life. I don’t just show up with a camera and snap a few photos, I am here to serve. Your experience is my sole focus; that means prioritizing time for you to stop and breathe, to release your stress, and maybe even have a few extra minutes to sit alone with your best friend and soak it all in. You want photos you can look back on and feel your joy? Let's create space for it.
I know that at the core of who we are is a unique individuality that God created in us long before we were born, so I am here to get to know you both and celebrate two people who were delicately and deliberately made, choose each other forever.
soak in the
sweetness
of your reality
If you have the kind of love that makes you believe in God because there is no way something so meant for you could be by chance, then you are exactly the kind of people I want to meet. Ultimately our time together is a collaboration; I am a storyteller and you are the story. The beauty in that is your only responsibility is to show up exactly as you are.
it’s not about capturing a vision, it’s about capturing a feeling.
That is why I choose to lean into the unposed, unscripted, maybe even the uncomfortable for just a few minutes before you allow vulnerability to take the front seat. When you look back at your photos, I guarantee you will feel exactly how you felt in the moment it was captured if we can take a minute to take the pressure of perfection off your shoulders and re-center ourselves with the understanding that your photos are only "perfect" when you show up at your most open, honest, and vulnerable place.
My mission is to tell a story that doesn’t leave out an ounce of authenticity and undeniable love.
