my vision
as seen in:
I've been perfecting my craft. Understanding when to step in and take the lead, and when to step back and let the moment happen. Anticipating an intimate moment rather than forcing an un-natural one. Creating a space where you feel comfortable and confident, making way for natural emotion to shine through and for your authentic personality to illuminate.

EMILY KIRSTEN
get to know
- Tori and chris
Emily's personality makes you feel like you've known her for years, and you can tell she is so genuine and intentional. She is professional, enthusiastic, and so incredibly helpful. Emily exceeded our expectations, and I still get chills looking back at our pictures.
"We were not the most comfortable or experienced in front of the camera going into our engagement session, but Emily eased all of our worries right from the beginning"
- ERIN AND JIM
She listened to our wants, likes, and dislikes, and even managed to control the routy members of our bridal party. But most importantly, she captured every perfect (and perfectly imperfect) moment from our best day ever.
"It was so important to me to have wedding photos that we could cherish for our lifetime, and Emily provided that and so much more! ."
Your wedding gallery is more than just a collection of posed portraits—it’s a thoughtfully curated story. I capture not only the big moments but also the in-between emotions, subtle glances, and fleeting connections that bring your day to life for years to come.
Storytelling That Goes Beyond the Expected
I believe the best photos come from genuine trust and connection. By getting to know you as a couple, I create a space where you feel comfortable, unguarded, and completely yourselves—resulting in images that feel natural, personal, and deeply authentic.
Deep Connection Leads to More Meaningful Images
From your first inquiry to the final delivery, I create a seamless, supportive experience—so you can stay fully present while I handle the details. My calm, organized approach ensures your wedding day feels effortless, allowing you to enjoy every moment.
