You don’t just want pictures of what it looked like – you want to remember how it felt.
I bring a documentary approach to your heirloom wedding photos, all while controlling the chaos that inevitably comes with big days that involve so many friends and family. My job? To make it easy and keep you relaxed. I want you to enjoy your time in front of the camera – it’ll just feel like you’re on the best date of your life. 😉
With me, the photography feels less like “just another part of the day,” and more like something you actually look forward to. Having done this job for more than 12 freakin’ years, I’ve seen it all, so you can trust that
I’ll handle anything your day throws my way.
So let’s flash forward to your wedding day: You’ve gotten married, and it’s time for the posed pictures just before the reception. You know that if I put you in silly poses, it’s to make you laugh, which is really what I’m going for. You trust me to get all the good angles because I know what it’s like to not feel comfy in front of the camera, and you trust me because I already prepped you with that handy wedding planning magazine I sent you. You’ve already seen complete galleries that I’ve done before, so you know that I know what I’m doing. And you know that if you weren’t happy for any reason, I’d do just about anything to fix it because I care about you.
I’ve been on every side of the wedding industry – especially now as someone who’s gone through the process of hiring her own vendors! Weddings can be straight-up stressful, and sometimes you just need someone to help you through it.
Sometimes you just need someone who understands where you are and can be a resource on things you didn’t even know you needed.
Sometimes you just need someone who gets it.
*enter me*
How to work with me
Step 1
You stalk my IG / website / Facebook / whatever. You say to yourself, “okurr she knows what’s up.” And you decide to inquire with me.
Step 2
I email you back pretty dang quickly so I can hear even more details about what you’re looking for in your photos! I either send you all the questions via email, or we hop on a quick call to get to know each other.
Step 3
You say to yourself, “wow I love her and I want her to do my photos!” I scream on the inside (or on the outside, who knows), and I send you a contract.
Step 4
You send over $1000 to hold your wedding date and then we start planning your super dope engagement session! I’ll also send you my wedding planning magazine (affectionately dubbed my Big Day Bible) to help you plan the wedding of your dreams!
Step 5
After a few months of planning and coordination, it’s time to get hitched! The day goes off as smooth as can be. You end up married. I end up making a zillion photos. Everybody happy cries. I hug your parents a lot.
Step 6
You’re either on your honeymoon or just back from it. You check your email and BOOM – photos! You happy cry as you relive the day. I happy cry when you email me back. We start picking your favorite photos for your wedding album and wall art!
Sounds pretty cool, huh?
we’re a perfect fit if…
✔ You value kick-ass photography!
I mean honestly, what else are you going to look back on in 10, 20, 50 years? When it’s all said and done, you’re never gonna wear that dress again, you’ll never taste that food again, and you’ll never have to tie that bowtie ever again.
But you know what you will have? The photos.
✔ You want to hire vendors you can trust
You want a highly experienced team of professionals who can transform your day into straight up magic. You want to sit back, relax, and actually enjoy the best day of your life, rather than stressing over the details. You’re truly just trying to show up, get married, and party the night away with not a thing to worry about.
✔ Your main wedding goal is to end up married
Seems obvious, but sometimes we forget what it’s all about. So yeah, I might sneak you out of your reception before dinner is over because the light is just too freakin’ good, and you’ll get more photos out of it. We might run 15 minutes behind because your flower girl wouldn’t cooperate. But you’re gonna end up married. And you’re gonna get dope photos. Isn’t that all that really matters?

Frequently asked questions
-
I offer 30-minute sessions specifically for this purpose! We don’t shoot as many photos so I can turn them around faster to you. But if you need them like, yesterday, we can work out a rush fee addendum to your contract so you can have them back in 24 hours!
-
When your gallery is ready, you’ll receive an email from me with a link and a password. Head to that link, pop in the password, and BOOM – photos! Your gallery also never expires, so you never have to worry about losing your photos. My obsession with backups = your peace of mind.
-
Relax, boo! That’s why you came to me, remember? I know all the dope spots around Vegas. Whether you’re wanting the classic Vegas look, the sleek and sexy vibe, or even the more natural background – I know them all! Tell me what your vision is and I’ll help you bring it to life!
-
You'll get an online password-protected gallery with all of your high resolution, edited images. From here, you can download the full-size files, as well as order prints from my professional lab. This online gallery doesn't typically have an expiration date, but that is subject to change, so download your images as soon as you get them!
Because the editing is part of the experience, I do not give out unedited images. A chef doesn't hand over her ingredients for you to cook on your own. The same thought process applies to my images.
-
Nah boo you can have as many albums and canvasses as you’d like! Shoot me a message and we’ll make you a custom package so you can display all of your memories 5evr.
-
100%, yes. Worry not.
-
Send me an email! I’m an open book.
-
95% of my couples say the exact same thing. Don’t worry! I got you! I’ll probably put you in some weird poses, but it’s not to make you feel awkward. Chances are, once you get in the pose, you’ll bust out laughing because you feel silly. That’s what I’m going for. Those fun playful laughing photos are the goal!
If you’re the kinda person that enjoys a nice glass of wine, let me know! We can go grab some liquid courage before your session if it’ll help! I’ll also send you three full pages of tips on how to prepare for your session, so you’ll never feel like you don’t know what you’re getting into.
-
Okay so I secretly think the personality type – Type A– stands for Type Amber. I’m a planner at heart. I love helping couples figure out their entire wedding plan! When you get in touch with me, I’ll work with you to begin planning your wedding day timeline. Once we make it #official, I’ll send you that timeline so you can use it when you contact other vendors. Ezpz.
-
Heck no! Send me anywhere! As a destination wedding photographer, there's no distance I won't travel for love. I’ve worked in Nicaragua, Texas, Arizona, Chicago, Kansas City, St. Louis, D.C…. and that was just in one year.
-
I always tell people 3 weeks for engagement sessions and 6 weeks for weddings, but I know you ain’t tryna wait that long ;)
-
Absolutely! I have 4- and 6-hour packages that are perfect for lower key weddings and elopements! I love building custom packages for couples.
-
An elopement is basically an intimate wedding but without a lot of the extras! Elopements are limited to 10 guests so that you two can focus purely on the love that brought you together. No more deciding what color tablecloths to get. No worries on who will sit where during the reception. No bridesmaids or groomsmen to worry about. Just the two of you! Bonus: Eloping in a destination (like Vegas) means you get to go on your honeymoon instantly!
I’m a travelin’ lady
I used to joke that I was in my car or at the airport so often, that I might as well live there. Funny story… It’s not really a joke anymore! Don’t see your location on this list? Just holler! I’d love to explore new places with you.
