Kristen + Conor are one of those couples that you just look at from across the room and can see how perfect they are for each other. Conor’s energy is the perfect balance to Kristen’s laid back personality, and their sense of humor is infectious. I had such a wonderful time working with the two […]

What a fun wedding day this was! I couldn’t have asked for a more sweet, easy-going couple to kick off my 2015 Wedding Season with. Mary Grace + Brian, THANK YOU for letting me be a part of your wedding celebration. And for letting me spend one more day with my love, Lucy. Gosh, I love […]

I couldn’t have picked a better way to end my wedding season. It was just a few days before 2014 came to a close, but first – Karlee + Ben had to say their “I do’s.” It was a laid back day, one that reflected on the calm and collected spirits of Karlee + Ben. […]

Well, for the past 6 months I’ve been getting Snapchats from Taylor about the wedding planning process… the countdown, snaps of endless amounts of details scattered around their apartment, the invitations… so needless to say the anticipation has been building. Taylor + Joe are one of my most […]

It’s a new year, and for most engaged couples – that means it’s time to kickstart that wedding planning. One thing that I love about my clients is that they never miss a detail. My weddings are chalk full of gorgeous center pieces, some hand-made, some custom ordered, and some purchased from the most talented […]
