Couples Sessions

My Philosophy

I believe that every couple’s story deserves loving, artful curation. I work to capture genuine connection through a blend of film and digital photography, incorporating nostalgia and precision in every gallery.

Prioritizing story over staging, I seek out the unguarded, sacred moments that truly reflect a couple’s relationship, real emotions and natural interactions. Every shot matters.

Film Offerings

With offerings in film and digital, your final images will carry the grain, tone, and texture of fine art. Photos that you’ll want to hang on your wall. These sessions are about atmosphere, connection, and capturing the distinct spirit of your love story as it is, right now.

My COUPLES

I feel incredibly lucky to work with couples who see beauty in the in-between. The ones who care more about connection than perfection, who bring their own creativity, energy, and style into every frame. It’s an honor to document love stories that are thoughtful, intentional, and deeply personal. Every couple I work with brings their own vision, edge, and story to the table, and that’s what makes this work so powerful. I’m continually inspired by the creative energy and trust my clients bring into each session.

Offerings

Not everything needs a milestone.
Couples sessions are a chance to slow down and document your relationship as it is right now—no agenda, just time set aside to be with each other in a meaningful place. These shoots are relaxed and lightly guided. We'll walk, talk, and create images that feel natural and connected. You don’t need to plan a thing beyond showing up—I’ll help with location, timing, and what to bring.

Perfect for: anniversaries, just-because portraits, travel keepsakes, or simply making space to be seen together.

Couples Sessions

These sessions are great for save-the-dates, wedding websites, or simply to mark the season you’re in. You bring the ring and your person—I’ll bring the camera and a calm, easy flow. We’ll pick a location that feels personal, and shoot in soft, natural light to get a mix of relaxed portraits, environmental shots, and candid moments. Think of it as a low-pressure warmup for your wedding day—just a little more fun and a lot less structured.

Engagement Sessions

If you’re planning to propose and want it photographed, I offer discreet proposal coverage—yes, that includes me hiding behind a tree, walking ahead of you on the trail, or posing as a stranger with a camera until the moment unfolds. We’ll collaborate ahead of time to plan the exact timing and setup. After the proposal, we’ll do a short portrait session to capture the excitement while it’s fresh.

You handle the surprise. I’ll handle the lighting.

Elopements & Micro-Weddings

For intimate weddings with 2 to 40 guests, I offer custom coverage that’s built to match the scale and rhythm of your day. Elopements and small ceremonies often allow for slower pacing, more intentional portraits, and quiet in-between moments that larger weddings can’t always hold space for. Coverage typically includes getting ready, ceremony, couple portraits, and light documentation of your time with guests—but every timeline is different, and I’ll help you build one that fits.
