Every couple loves having these beautiful shots of their wedding details. It’s an important part of the story and I love having this time because it allows me to get warmed up for the rest of the day.
This is one of my favorite parts of the wedding day! I will find the perfect location and make sure it's as private and secluded as possible.

It’s time to get you dressed. This is a big moment! I usually ask everyone including family and all of your attendants to be dressed as well so they can help you, all while looking picture perfect.
One of the biggest advantages of doing a First Look is the extra portrait time! I'll take a few romantic portraits of the two of you while the initial excitement is still present.

Now things are really getting fun! During wedding party portraits, we will take some great shots of everyone both separately AND together!
The day will have been a blur by this point, so now it's time to refresh. You can use this time to rest, touch up, and hydrate before your big moment!

I will send a questionnaire before the wedding where you can list out the combinations that you want. I recommend 10 combinations or less for a stress-free experience!
While the two of you are resting, I will use this time to shoot the ceremony decor untouched. I always like to grab candids of guests being seated and programs being handed out.

Ceremony Details
It's time to get married! Most ceremonies are usually 15- 30 minutes long. If your ceremony is longer than 30 mins, we’ll make adjustments to the timeline.
While you enjoy the last half of Cocktail Hour with your guests, I will photograph the reception space untouched before guests are seated for dinner and the reception events begin.

While your guests enjoy Cocktail Hour, we'll sneak away for some pictures. This is when the sun is glowy and golden, and I get that ooey gooey light! These are always my favorite pictures.
8 hours of coverage includes the main reception events and about 30 minutes of dancing. If you’d like to have your exit photographed without adding on additional coverage, you can plan a controlled exit with just your wedding party. I’ve have had amazing success with this and the party never stops!
