Tell Me Yours

Not that I’d even want to, anyway! Because how freaking lucky am I to be part of such a beautiful, intimate experience?! I’m genuinely obsessed with each couple’s story and capturing their love in a way that feels real, fun, and totally them.

I don’t think I’ll ever get over the mountains or the little moments.

So, trust me when I say, I’ve been in your shoes, and I can help make it all come together with ease, no matter what happens! I’ve documented over 550 weddings and elopements in Colorado over the past decade, and I’m already all in with your story, too.

I’m a Michigan girl who traded the farmhouse life for the Colorado mountains. After 8 years in Denver, my husband and I moved to Longmont for that perfect small-town vibe with big mountain views. These days, I wake up to an unobstructed view of Longs Peak from my backyard, constantly reminding me that the simple, quiet moments matter most. And that’s the kind of energy I bring into every photo. Even when things don’t go as planned…

True story: my husband and I planned our dream destination wedding in Big Sur, but our plans were derailed when the highway collapsed a month before our date. While replanning an entirely new wedding in 30 days was a bit stressful, our 30-person intimate dinner party at the Sea Ranch Lodge in Northern California turned out to be more magical than we had imagined.

FROM THE MIDWEST TO THE MOUNTAINS

Beyond The Lens

Say hello to my border collie/heeler mix (Stevie) and husky/heeler mix (Indie), and my husband’s husky (Rufio). We’re basically a blended family, but one big happy pack!

I’m also mom to the sweetest girl: My daughter, Chloe, is a little ball of energy and joy. We’re already planning her next big adventure when she becomes a big sister!

My own love story is a whirlwind: My husband and I met on Hinge (I swear, it works!), got engaged in Santorini, Greece, married in Cali, and then spent our honeymoon in Kenya at the iconic Giraffe Manor before embarking on an unforgettable two-week safari.

Traveling is my love language: My passion for exploring the world started when I studied abroad in Florence. Since then, I’ve been to 13 countries and counting.

The mountains are my happy place: I love spending a lot of time outdoors with my family, hiking in the mountains, paddleboarding, and walking our dogs around McIntosh Lake (literally two minutes from our backyard). 

Crested Butte has my heart: It was my husband and my first trip together, so we make it a point to visit at least once a year and dream of retiring there someday.
