WHAT I OFFER →

My approach to preserving your day is all about embracing the in-betweens and capturing authenticity. I believe that every couple is unique, and that their love story deserves to be told in a way that's as individual and special as they are. That's why I take the time to get to know my clients on a personal level, and to help understand the vision they have for their wedding that's true to who they are and what they love.

Whether we're hiking to the top of a mountain, hittin' the dance floor with your best crew, or cozying up in your parents backyard, I'm always up for the adventure. Our most real and authentic moments happen when we let go of expectations and embrace the spontaneity of the moment. That's when the real magic happens, and it's my job to capture it all.

So if you're looking for an photographer who will help you celebrate your love story in a way that's wild, authentic, and unforgettable, I'm your gal.

Hi there! I'm a 30-year-old adventure seeker, dog mom, and storyteller who grew up on a dairy farm nestled under the pines. Those early days taught me to appreciate life’s simple joys and the beauty of the world around us—values I truly carry with me wherever I go.

When I’m not exploring new places or capturing love stories, I love spending time with friends and family. You can usually find me at a vibey brewery, hiking with my boyfriend & our dog, or hanging at home with friends and our crazy crew of dogs. I’m a big fan of craft beer, long chats, delicious food, and spontaneous Polaroids. My ideal day includes country music on the speakers, a spirited game of cribbage, and plenty of quality time with the people I love.

Life is all about the little moments—laughing with friends, catching the sunset, and finding joy in everyday adventures. Whether I’m in the mountains or hanging in our backyard, I’m always chasing those feel good moments.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE GAL BEHIND THE LENS

HEY I'M EMILY

live in YOUR moment, I'll document it.

- CHRISTA & JOE

let me just start by saying Emily is absolutely amazing! From doing our engagement photos to our wedding this past weekend, she has without a doubt exceeded any expectations we could of had. Not only is she extremely talented and professional, great at communication and answering any questions, she is so chill and so easy to be around which made our wedding a breeze.

"WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN..."

- AMANDA & ANDY

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Emily. She’s the kind of person that feels like an extension of your wedding party, making everything so chill and at ease while capturing something so important. She’s incredibly talented and balanced what we were looking for with her style and vision flawlessly. She was easy to communicate with for engagement sessions all the way up to and beyond our wedding date and went out of her way to make sure we were happy. Emily feels like family now and I can’t look at our pictures without thinking of her and how much we appreciate her.

"EMILY FEELS LIKE FAMILY NOW"

- KEEANA & ERIC

Emily was seriously AMAZING. In every way. She was so helpful, fun and literally perfect to work with. I changed things last minute and she was very go with the flow. She had went out to find spots for pictures 2 days before (we eloped out of state) so the day of, she had it all planned where the perfect spots for pictures would be. She was so easy to get along with, always had the best vibes and my family couldn’t say enough great things about her as well!
