Lesbian fall wedding with documentary style wedding photo aesthetic bride faces away from camera while someone off camera adjusts hair

Getting Ready

Making time for the details

The rest of the day is going to be a blur, so take a beat

How do you ramp up to one of the biggest moments of your life? I'd argue that you need ease, whatever your version of that is! Whether you want to blast a speaker and pop champagne or are more the type for a peaceful cup of coffee in the morning with your spose-to-be, one thing holds true; a photographer dogging you to fit their schedule is not going to maintain a positive atmosphere. If you have complex plans or want fun group photos for your wedding party, I'm ready to be a cheerleader. If you have a simpler vision, I'll explore different compositions to showcase your anticipation of what's to come.
