It’s gloomy outside, so naturally I’m thinking about this candlelit little world we created a few months back. Mix of medium format and 35mm film 🎞️

Amaya on her wedding day last fall. Reminiscing on some of my film from past weddings and realized this needs its own spot on the feed. Nothing beats a Minnesota fall 🍂🍁

Why choose between photo and video when you can have both?

Headshots are important … but so is showing the person behind them. That’s why we love offering sessions with both photos and video.

Let’s make some magic together and get a dual session on the books! 📹📸

Family memories deserve more than a single format.

Years from now, of course you’ll still love the photos. But hearing the laughter, seeing the way your kids ran into your arms, watching the little moments unfold again — that’s the magic of video.

One session. One experience. A lifetime of memories preserved.

Reach out to either of us to book a joint photo+video session today!

What a dream this was 🤍 had to share some film scans while I go through all the magic this day brought.

So grateful for everyone that came together to bring my vision to life for this. Endlessly amazed by all the passionate people in my life. Extra big shoutout to @hihilolo.co for always being on board with my visions and actually executing them into real life. She wore many hats this day and I am forever thankful for her 🥹

Same rain, different day 🌧️ with @brooke.welsh__ and @grahampaww on film 🎞️
.
These were taken on a wildly windy, rain-soaked stretch of the Oregon coast and somehow, that chaos turned into proof that perfect conditions are overrated 🤌

Golden hour glow, moody corners, and everything in between ✨We chased every kind of light inside the Landmark Center and somehow it all just matched them. Sweet, soft, wildly in love.
Honestly… this is what it looks like when you get to marry your best friend 🤍

Every photo here happened after 10pm. And that’s exactly why I never leave early 🔥 Late night dance floor hits different. Vibes high. Lights low. And not a timeline or checklist in sight.
.

Continuing to provide all day coverage for my 2026 and 2027 couples. Your day is about more than a timeline to me. I’m there beginning to end with some posed stuff in between.

Also it’s Allie’s birthday today 🙂‍↕️ so plz share all the well wishes for this absolute dime. I have the coolest brides. taken in Le VENERÉ by @ohhelloem

I’ve been lucky enough to photograph this crew since before baby #1, and somehow every year gets a little louder, a little sweeter, and a whole lot more fun. Watching them grow from newlyweds to a full, beautiful family of seven has been such a joy (and honestly… a workout 😅)
.
.
This is the magic of what I do ✨ growing with families, documenting the legacy you’re building, and turning all these wild, love-filled seasons into memories you’ll hold onto forever. 🤍

I asked what kind of post to make and y’all chose personal so naturally I immediately froze and had to avoid it for 3 days 💁‍♀️
.
.
But hiiii. It me. And a random collection of life over the last few months. Some highlights include lots of family time, taking a darkroom class with @hihilolo.co a photo retreat in Oregon, a family trip to Florida and lots of good dog content.
.
.
I have been feeling so grateful for my life lately and have been welcoming in new experiences and lots of joy. My goals for the rest of this year are to continue caring for my body and soul, lots more travel, more easy morning walks to the coffee shop with @caseybblake and to continue pushing myself creatively as I come up on 10 years in this business (more thoughts on this later 😬)
.
.
Anyways, if you made it to the bottom of this, give yourself a lil kiss from me. Thanks for being here. Thanks for supporting me. Even if I only post once every few months 🙂‍↕️
