What

I’ll make communication easy by adapting to you and your planner’s preferred methods. And I’ll stay proactive throughout the process to lay the groundwork and keep you informed. You can feel confident knowing I’ll anticipate your needs and handle every detail with care—starting now.

Tailored
Communication

INQUIRE

I’ll work closely with you and your planner to build a timeline that maximizes every moment. By approaching your day thoughtfully and planning for intentional downtime, you'll be free to enjoy your celebration, while we capture it all—free from the pressure of a rushed schedule.​​​​

Intentional
Timeline

Chelsea + Keith

She made me feel at ease and was so knowledgable about all things wedding. She even volunteered to take care of things that were not part of the job description.

She went out of her way to make sure our day was perfect.

I'll work alongside trusted second photographers who understand my style and will capture your day with professionalism and joy. Using multiple cameras and lenses, you'll get images with unique perspectives that capture every spectacular moment.

FLAWLESS COVERAGE

INQUIRE

I'll meticulously edit your images to ensure each photo is polished, refined, and authentic to you. The result? A gallery of sunning images that reflect the true beauty of your day.

ATTENTION
TO DETAIL

Anna + Nick

Every detail was captured with perfection. Lainie gave us a stunning variety to choose from as favorites, but the joke was on us because every photo was flawless.

When I first saw my wedding photos, I was completely overcome with emotion, and I still feel that way every time I look at them.

Let's connect

To curate a truly customized experience for you, I take on a limited number of weddings per year. This allows me to put all my attention and focus on your love story. 

And because I believe in not just capturing your day but also making sure you enjoy it, let me share a little advice I wish someone had given me on my wedding day: Take a deep breath, soak it all in, and trust the people you’ve chosen to bring it all together.

My goal? To be one of those people—guiding you every step of the way,
so you can stay present while I focus on preserving the magic.
