"When my future husband and I set out to find a photographer, we didn't just want someone who would snap photos.We wanted an artist. Someone who would capture the very feel, emotion, atmosphere, and essence of one of the most important days of our lives. We wanted every shot to be a beautiful piece of art, freezing precious moments in time.
Emily was the perfect photographer for us. She is so fun, creative, organized and thoughtful. On your wedding day, there's so many details you simply cannot think about. Emily helped us capture all of the photos we wanted - even the photos we didn't know we wanted! She was so efficient and on top of the entire process, able to direct the entire wedding party with grace and ease. She's incredible at letting everyone know exactly what they need to be doing, with an eye for every detail.
My favorite part about Emily's work is that it's truly her own, unique art. When I look back at these photos for the rest of my life, I will feel the very same emotions I felt on that day. I might even feel the warm sun as it breaks through the trees - remembering soft smiles and a love that will last a lifetime."

It’s easy to see that Emily has pretty much perfected the art of photography, but what truly sets her apart is her unique ability to tell stories through the pictures she takes. From the very start, Emily was intentional about taking time to learn about us as a couple, and she used that perspective to beautifully capture both our engagement photos and our wedding day.
Beyond that, Emily’s genuine love for her job shines through not only her pictures but also the way she carries herself as a business owner. Emily maintained consistent communication with us while also providing us with support in planning and developing a timeline to help our wedding day run smoothly. Further, she was nothing short of an absolute professional, and we had multiple other vendors tell us how great she was to work with. We were truly just so impressed with Emily, and we’d recommend her a million times over!”

Not only does Emily have an amazing eye for photography, she also shows great professionalism and capability in her interactions with others.

“There are not enough words to describe Emily and her gift in photography. She is intelligent, passionate and extremely fun. Her love for her work shines so bright. The thing that really stood out to my husband and I is how comfortable Emily made us feel. She made us laugh and had so much fun during our session. Not to mention, her work is outstanding.
I love our photos because they are so genuine, bright and full of joy. I am thankful that Emily not only took our engagement photos, but that she is also such a true and great friend. I cannot recommend this gal more!! She is amazing at what she does and you will not regret it.”

“I'm SO glad we had Emily take our engagement pictures!! My husband and I are more of the shy type, so I was a bit worried the session would be awkward, especially since he doesn’t like getting his picture taken. The only thing I knew I wanted for the pictures was a waterfall in the background. I told Emily that, and she found a beautiful location for the session. It had a big waterfall and also a bridge for additional shots.
The session turned out great! We had fun and Emily made us feel very comfortable. We could be ourselves which is so important when taking pictures because nobody wants to look uncomfortable. She was such a great person to do this with. I was very excited to see the finished pictures, and they turned out more than amazing!! We are very happy we chose Emily for our engagement pictures.”

“Emily is so incredibly gifted in capturing love between two people! She collaborated with my husband to capture the surprise proposal in the most authentic way. We did an engagement shoot right after he proposed and I've never felt more comfortable in front of a camera in my life! She was so open to capturing us as we enjoyed the moment but was ready with the best poses when we were lost on what to do next.
Emily was such a dream to work with on our wedding day!! She saw the most genuine moments between my husband and I and captured them so well. Em also was a complete boss at getting family/group photos done efficiently so they didn't take all night. If you're looking for someone to be a joy to work with while taking all the stress out of wedding photography, Em's your girl!"
