this is about you

Moments pass too quickly and memories fade too soon. I for one want to cling tightly to all the joy, relive those moments of sheer happiness again and again, and keep stories and photos to pass on to my children. Photographs capture and keep those fleeting moments alive forever.

 When you book with me, it goes so much further than emails and invoices. I consider you a friend. I want to keep in touch, celebrate your milestones. I’m not here to make a buck and cross you off my to-do list. You matter. Your story matters. Being chosen to document your joy, your moments, and your memories is an honor beyond words, and one I don’t take lightly. I want to tell your story with all the love, grace, and respect in the world.

That’s what you deserve. That’s how important your moments are.

"...She made my wedding so magical and she captured so many moments that I’ll cherish in my heart forever. When we had our “first dance” in the snow, that was my favorite moment of my wedding day because it was so romantic and special to Trey and I! I wouldn’t have had that if Jaymi hadn’t suggested it. We are so thankful that she captured a day we will never forget and we hope we can do more shoots with her in the future!"

ON YOUR WEDDING DAY

Firstly, our collaboration begins long before the actual wedding day. In addition to sending you my Wedding Guide, I will make myself available in the months leading up to your special day for any questions or concerns! I want to be a resource for you as you plan and prepare for your wedding.

01 /

When that long-awaited day arrives, you are the star of the show, my friend. I will be there to help and support you in whatever way you need so that you can have the best wedding possible. Whether you desperately need a coffee or help with the centerpieces, I got you.  

02 /

Your priorities are my priorities. I don’t have a hidden agenda, nor am I looking to pad my portfolio or suit my own preferences. I am here in every way to tell your story and capture the things that matter most to you, whatever those may be. You share your dream and I will run with it.

SLIDESHOW

All The Highlights

Along with your gallery, I create a photo slideshow curated specifically and thoughtfully for your day. Consider it a retelling of all the romance in chronological order, from first light to last song and dance. Watching your story with music transports you back to the day itself, and every precious moment. Cue the waterworks.

 

Your photo experience is only complete when you hold your photos in your hands—when an album rests on your coffee table and prints hang on the walls of your home. Enjoy your precious photos by ordering high quality albums and prints from the very best print labs, handpicked just for you.
Your print shop is integrated into your online gallery so you can design and order beautiful products in just a few clicks, with my help and expertise available to you along the way.

QUESTIONS

ANSWERS

West Michigan is home!

where are you based?

I do! My passport is up to date and ready to go. Reach out with your destination plans and we'll work out the finer details together.

Do you travel for weddings and sessions?

It definitely varies! For weddings, you'll typically receive 500-1000 photos depending on the amount of coverage you choose. For couple sessions, you can expect about 75-150 photos. Here is my promise: I'll never leave good photos out of your gallery—I give you all of the best images we create together!

how many photos can we expect?

Good things take time. Editing photos is a big and important part of my job, and I’ll never rush through a gallery just to cross them off my to-do list. Your photos, your stories, your memories, they’re too valuable for that. Each and every one of my clients and their weddings get my full, undivided attention. If you just can’t wait and want to skip my editing queue, add the rush fee to your collection to jump ahead of the line and see your photos only a week after your wedding.

Otherwise, my typical turnaround time for weddings and elopements is 6-12 weeks, and couple sessions are 2-3 weeks. 

what's your typical turnaround time?

I love shooting in all kinds of weather and I always encourage my couples to embrace nature as it is. Rain, wind, sun, snow— it adds to the scene and helps your images to be truly unique. However, if the weather is unsafe or could potentially damage my gear, I'm always happy to postpone to a different date. 

what if the weather is bad?

Yes! I send a handful of photos 24-48 hours after your wedding or session is finished. That way you have something to tide you over + pictures to post and share with friends and family while you wait for the rest of your gallery!

Will we see any sneak peeks before our gallery is finished?

When I’m finished editing your session I'll upload all of the images to a password-protected online gallery. You'll receive a link to be able to view, download, share, and print your images directly from that site!

how do I get my pictures back after my session?

Yes! All of your images are printable. You can even print your photos directly from your online gallery.

Do I have the right to print my images?

I do! I have a few select photographers whom I hire to help bring your vision to life. I’ve worked very closely with each of them, so we’ve learned how to coordinate well and ultimately provide the best wedding gallery and the best experience possible. 

Do you work with a second shooter?

All I need is a signed contract + a 30% non-refundable retainer fee to make it official! 

how do we book you?
