intimate weddings & elopements
Small, quaint, and full of love.
I wholeheartedly believe that beauty can be found in even the simplest of wedding days. As much as I love a good mountain elopement, I also am 100% in love with intentional days in less than "pinterest worthy" locations. If you are looking for someone who cares more about capturing the beauty in your day, than their own portfolio..then you've come to the right place. On wedding days I can usually be found crying behind my lens during the private vows, laughing with you when your veil almost blows away during your bridal portraits, or making a joke to relieve any tension that the stress of the day can bring. I want your day to be full of good emotions..not worries. And I will do everything I can to capture both beautiful and authentic images of the best day ever!
-I work with elopements & weddings that are best classified as micro or intimate. guest counts under 50, and unique locations or timelines! Although, I am always open to discussing any wedding day, I only open my books up to a few weddings a year and compatibility with the couple and their vision for their day is super important to me when booking!
Inspo -worthy days we had the honor of capturing!
Sara & Calista's Rustic Autumn Wedding- These two are the kind of couple you meet and instantly know they're meant for each other. Their love just radiates from them. Their day was a perfect reflection of that. From the beautiful weather as they read their private vows in the middle of a little garden, to frolicking with us at the most beautiful sunset, to cozying up by the fire for S'mores, and sending their friends and family home with homemade Boilo...The day could not have been any sweeter.

Kyra & Anthony's Mountainside Elopement- This beautiful Appalachian elopement was what dreams are made of. Ya'll know how I feel about Elopements and this is exactly why I specialize in intimate weddings! There's nothing better than running around fields with a madly in love couple, especially when they're as cute and stylish, and adventurous as Kyra and Anthony were!

Mitch & Stephanie's Late Summer Bridals- These two are quite literally a "picture perfect" couple. Besides the fact that they just look so dang good together... They have an easy feeling type of love, based on true friendship and shared dreams. It was so easy to photograph them because of how their genuine connection showed up it every interaction they shared while in front of our lens!
