You’ve got the love, I’ve got the camera (and the pep talks). But weddings are just the beginning. I’m here for all of it. cozy in-home sessions, wild mountain elopements, downtown couples shoots, glowing portraits, surprise proposals, you name it.
Every package below was created to give you a gallery that feels like your favorite memories. full of laughter, love, and all the little in-between moments that matter most. Pick your vibe, and let’s make some magic together. I’m already doing a happy dance thinking about it.
Starting at $3,900
You already know I love love, but getting to capture it? That’s where my heart lives. Your wedding day isn’t just a date on the calendar to me. it’s the beginning of a brand new forever, and I don’t take that lightly. I’m here to document the moments that matter most — the big ones and the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it ones.
There are two things that will always be included in every wedding package because they’re non-negotiable for me:
Big Moments. Bigger Vibes.
Family photos, maternity, seniors, couples, milestones, or just because. Every session is relaxed, fun, and built around making sure you actually feel like yourself in front of the camera.
Not everybody needs the same number of photos, so choose the collection that feels right for you. You’ll get to choose your favorites after your gallery is ready, and you can always add more if narrowing them down turns out to be impossible.
Perfect when you want a handful of beautiful photos to capture this season of life.
• A relaxed session at an Asheville-area location we choose together

• Option to purchase additional images or upgrade to the full gallery

Just You, Being You
And if you want your photos somewhere other than your camera roll, I also offer beautiful prints, wall art, and albums. Once your gallery is delivered, we can talk through all the ways to turn your favorites into something you can actually enjoy in your home every day.
Love looks real good out here.
Starting at $1,100
elopements just might be my favorite. There’s something so special about stripping everything back and focusing on what really matters: the two of you, making it official in a way that feels perfectly you.
I’m your hype girl, location scout, and built-in emotional support. I’ll help make your day effortless and unforgettable, while capturing every tear, laugh, and wild-in-love moment along the way.
There are a few things I’ll always bring to an elopement, no matter the package:
01
Say Hey!
Slide into my inbox and tell me what you’re dreaming up. The more details, the better. I want to know all about you, your love story, and your favorite cake flavor (obviously).
02
Lock In
Once we chat and choose a package, I’ll send over your contract and retainer details. Easy peasy. Your date is officially booked and we’re making magic happen.
03
plan + shoot
From timeline tips to outfit inspo, I’ve got you covered. We’ll plan every detail so the day flows smoothly. then I show up with my camera, my unrelenting hype, and prob a snack.
04
gallery delivery
Grab a tissue box. Your photos are ready and they’re gonna hit you right in the feels. Delivered in a beautiful online gallery, ready to download, print, and post all over Instagram.
Think we’d be a good fit?
same, bestie.
I’m always so honored when someone invites me into their story. If you’ve been vibing with what you’ve seen so far, let’s keep the energy going and talk details.
Reach out anytime to ask a question, check my availability, or just say hey. I can’t wait to hear what you’re dreaming up, and I’m already saving you a spot on my calendar.
