You're Engaged!!
What's next??
Let's Connect!
So you've done your creeping all over our website and social media, now it's time to hop on that inquiry!
Then we can get on a call and get to know each other better. Make sure our visions and personalities align perfectly for your day. I can't wait to hear about your dream day!
We are an open book and love wedding planning so we are here for any and all your questions and ideas!
Once you know I am your girl, we will send over your contract and retainer to officially reserve your date. Woohoo!! We can all jump around together once we have your big day locked in.
*Engagement session included with Wedding and Elopement photos*
What an exciting and sometimes, overwhelming, time!
Deciding on a guest count, finding a venue in budget, talking to caterers. You have enough to worry about! So let's make this easy.
Choosing a photographer is about so much more than the photos (of course the photos are important too). We are here to be a cheerleader, supporter, confidant, and friend through the whirlwind that is wedding season. We will be there to help create a stress-free environment so you can relax and have fun in this season of celebration!
Whatever your dream wedding looks like, we are here to help you feel your best during all the moments of the day - the candid + the intimate + the big + the irreplaceable.
So You're Getting Married!
Let's capture your story authentically.
Your photographer will be there for every moment of your day. Choosing the right photographer may be one the most important decisions you make.
I understand the importance of getting it right and will work with you to make sure every detail is perfect. From capturing the emotion on your faces during the first look, to documenting the pure joy in your faces during the first dance, I will help you keep every memory of your big day for years to come and be the calm presence you need to soothe the nerves throughout the day.
Weddings are already full of love and life so I will capture your day as it is happening naturally.

Meet our associate photographer, Noah
Lucky for us, we have a talented associate photographer to join for larger ceremonies! Noah, husband of Emily, has a unique angle, cool and collected demeanor, and a welcoming presence.
Noah is a tech-ed teacher, a woodworker (@npe.woodworks), a skateboarder, a guitarist, a co-parent to two handsome cats, and a talented photographer!
The Process
Step 1 - Inquire
It all starts with a simple form that helps me understand the vision and needs for the day! Take your time answering the questions and be thorough - the more I know the better! I will be in touch within 48 hours with my availability and scheduling for an introduction call.
Step 2 - Introduction Call
We hop on a quick call, usually 20-30 minutes, to get to know each other and learn more about your vision for the day. This is where I learn what matters most to you and who you are as a couple! This call is the perfect opportunity to see if we are the right fit and ask any questions you may have.
Step 3 - Booking
Ready to check photographer off of the to-do list?? I will create a custom contract fit to your needs and wants. You'll sign the contract and pay a deposit to secure your wedding date. I will add you to the calendar and then I am officially yours from now through your wedding for all the ideas and brainstorming and timeline planning and of course the wedding day activities! EEEKKK I am so excited already!
Step 4 - Planning
I will keep in touch throughout planning so you are always free to bounce anything off of me! A few months before your wedding, we will meet to map out your timeline, discuss family photo lists, and go over all the little details that will make your day flow smoothly.
Step 5 - The Experience
This is the day. All the planning and prep is put to work to make this day everything you've dreamed of and you can soak it all. All the tears, laughs, and love in celebration of you two. I am there with you to make sure those memories last forever.
Step 6 - Delivery
Within 48 hours of your day, you will receive a handful of selected photos to enjoy - we call these the "sneak peeks". I work hard to go through your memories with care and dedication to ensure everything is just right for you. With that said, the full gallery will be delivered 4-6 weeks after the wedding unless previously discussed. Any further edits or additions can be added for up to 30 days after delivery.
It is the honor of my lifetime to get to be there to preserve this important day for you. Each wedding is unique and I do not take for granted to gift I have in getting to be a part of it all. Thank you!
Let's get planning!
Questions you may have...
How do I book a session?
To get the process started the first thing you will do is fill out the inquiry form or hit the "book an introduction call". Once your form is submitted, I will be in touch with you about to find a time to meet virtually. This is a quick call where I can get a better understanding of your vision for the event and you can get a feel for how I will capture the day!
How will I receive my images?
You will receive a high resolution, private gallery of your final edited images. Each gallery is sent via email and comes with a password for viewing along with a download pin that will be sent in the email with delivered gallery!
Can we choose the location for our session?
Yes, please! The location plays a significant role in how photos will turn out and I love capturing you in a place that holds meaning to you. I have a list of location ideas that I offer depending on your location and have a list of local studios to choose from!
What happens if the weather is bad on the day of my outdoor shoot?
If the weather doesn't cooperate, we have a few options! We can reschedule for another date at no extra charge, switch to an indoor location, or embrace the elements for a unique, creative session. I'll stay in touch leading up to your shoot to discuss the best plan based on the forecast. I will always discuss back-up plans for weddings and elopements in the planning process.
Do you travel?
I love to travel! Travel fees are subject to location. The first 50 miles are free and every mile after that is $1/mile, which will be added to the final invoice. Mention your location in your inquiry to get a travel quote!
What happens after I have booked my session?
After our call and you tell me you are ready to book, I will write up a custom contract for you to review and sign. A deposit fee is requested upon signing the contract to hold your date. At this point, I am yours for any questions or ideas!
Do you offer prints or only digital images?
I provide clients with a private, online gallery with high-resolution digital images. My gallery page has a store where you can shop your images and get them printed to you. This shows up as a store icon in the upper right hand corner of your gallery. As my client, you also receive print release rights and are able to order prints straight from your gallery!
"The time went by so fast but Emily made sure to capture everything that we wanted and more! We really appreciated her ideas and how comfortable she made us. Emily made us feel like she was one of our friends taking our photos she was so great! She was a great hype woman that made us feel excited and comfortable during our shoot. The photos she captured are beautiful we especially loved the candid ones she was able to capture of us.."
