Engagement Sessions
The Experience
True Love Captured Forever
From the moment you book, you're not just getting someone to show up with a camera on your wedding day. You're getting a partner who's genuinely invested in making sure your day runs smoothly and feels right.
I've photographed weddings all across Michigan for 9+ years, and I've learned that great wedding photos start way before the ceremony. That's why I help couples with timeline creation, figuring out the flow of their day so nothing feels rushed and we actually have time to capture what matters. I guide you through posing in a way that feels natural, not awkward or stiff. Because the goal is for you to look like yourselves, just the best version.
Here's my commitment so you...I only book one wedding per weekend. Your day gets my full attention. No splitting focus, no rushing off to another event. And I stay in communication with you from booking through delivery and beyond. Need to ask a question at 8 pm on a Tuesday? Want to talk through your timeline for the third time because you're second guessing everything? I'm here for it.
Whether you're getting married in Detroit, Grand Rapids, or even the Upper Peninsula, I travel throughout the state to work with couples who want a photographer that actually shows up for them. Not just on the wedding day, but throughout the entire process.
The photos I create become legacy art for your family. But the experience of working together? That matters just as much, if not more!
If you're planning a Michigan wedding and want a photographer who treats your story like it deserves genuine care and attention, let's talk!
The Process
1.
Say Hello!
The first step is to say hello of course! Fill out the contact form and we'll get things rolling.
Once you book with us (sign a contract and pay the retainer payment) your date is solidly booked! We'll get things going from there.

Engagement Session
We book your engagement session! Engagement sessions are a fun way to sit back and relax, enjoy each others' company, and to get some beautiful photographs of both of you.
This is my favorite time to also get to know you and introduce how I photograph couples to you.

Keep In Touch
My biggest thing is keeping communication with you. I want to make sure I am not leaving you hanging when you have questions or if you aren't sure what to do next.
I will check in with you a few times before you wedding day and then about a month out from your wedding, we will have a quick meeting to go over details and timeline.
I will check in a final time a week before your wedding to finalize things and make sure we are all good to go!

Wedding Day
It's your wedding day! I will check in the morning of just as a quick wedding day check-in.
I tend to show up around 15-30 minutes early to the location because I'm just the kind of person who doesn't like to be late :)
We'll all have a great time capturing the love between the two of you AND you and your loved ones!
