What I Do

01.

 

WEDDINGS

For the engaged couples doing things their way, keeping it sentimental and forging their own traditions. Specializing in weddings that feel creative & cozy, out in nature, or with vintage touches. Through journalistic wedding photography, it's my mission to photograph every belly laugh, tear of joy, and nostalgic detail that tells the story of your wedding day.

Families

Your littles aren't little forever. With play and adventure at the center, I aim to document this short season of your family's life--in all it's cuteness, messiness and joy--before it's gone. If your family loves outdoor adventures, baking together, bedtime stories, and isn't afraid to be silly to make each other smile, we will be friends in no time.

Hey, I'm emily


I’ve loved taking photos for as long as I can remember. As a child, my sisters and I would dress up and play “photoshoot” together, draping a sheet over our bunk bed for a backdrop or going outside at sunset. As I grew up, I continued to take photos of anything around me that I found beautiful-the sun shining through a window, a lilac tree in full bloom, or a mural in an alleyway downtown.


Flash forward to now, and I’ve had the pleasure of photographing families & love stories with the same childlike whimsy that I did years ago, working hard to see your creative vision come to life & finding ways to include the beauty of the everyday within each photo.
