Your wedding day is unique and special not because of the venue you chose or the details you curated (although those are important and I'll photograph the heck out of them!) but because of the love you share for the person you've chosen to marry.
I'm here to help keep you focused on that truth – to make sure your day is focused on celebrating with your new spouse and the people closest to you...and to document all those moments so you can remember them forever.
LET'S MAKE YOUR DAY TRUE TO YOU.
This is a new chapter in a story you've already been telling.
KIND WORDS
...it's helping YOU truly enjoy and breathe in the magic of your day. I know that might sound strange coming from someone you're considering hiring to take your wedding photos, but here's the thing – if you're able to be fully present on your wedding day, the photos we capture together will most authentically showcase YOU and the memories you care about most.
That's why, from day one, I'm all about getting to know you. Not as a marketing gimmick or to get a better review or whatever, but because when I truly know who you are, then I can photograph you in a way that's true to you.
My primary focus isn't taking great pictures on your wedding day...
FRIEND PHOTOGRAPHER
I'm here to capture who you are as a couple — your journey to this point, your love for each other now, and your vision for the future.
+ Relationship
Your real journey is what this is all about — the highs, the lows, and all the beautifully messy moments that brought you here.
+ Honesty
I'll be with you every step of the way to guide you, celebrate with you, and create something that's true to you.
+ Partnership
Together, we'll document what's meaningful — the real, candid, teary-eyed memories that take you right back to the way you felt.
+ Heart
PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGES INCLUDE...
Coverage Hours
Typical coverage time ranges between 8-12 hours but we can customize this to fit your specific needs!
1-Month Delivery
I personally go through EACH photo I capture on your wedding day and select the very best images to edit and deliver to you via a high-resolution, downloadable, shareable online gallery...all WITHIN ONE MONTH! ⚡️
Day-After Preview Images
I know you'll be anxiously waiting to see the images we captured together...and you won't have to wait long! I'll text you some preview images within 24 hours so you can change that iPhone background, post on Insta, or share with friends and family.
Planning Resources
From the moment you book, you’ll have access to me in a group text chat with you and your fiancé. My goal is to create a genuine relationship with you so you feel comfortable being honest in real life in front of my camera.
Direct Photographer Access
I don't want you to see me as just your "photographer" – my goal is to be a trusted friend. As soon as you book with me, I set up a group text thread for the three of us so you'll have easy access to ask questions, get information, or...let's be honest...send funny GIFs back and forth 😆
Exclusive Online Print Store
Changing your iPhone background is great...but what about the living room wall?? Directly within your gallery is a fully-featured print shop full of prints and products I've hand-selected from some of the best professional labs across the country. You can literally sit on your couch and order prints from your phone...how cool is that??
ASHLEY + JACOB
I've never had a photographer be so intentional about displaying what our relationship looked like as opposed to just posing us in your typical, Instagram-perfect poses. And, the result was photos that were not only gorgeous but truly showcased us as a couple.

COURTNEY + SHALIN
So glad one of our friends recommended us to Josh. He made us feel SO comfortable and peaceful on our wedding day. It can be so nerve racking to hire someone for your most precious day – but Josh exceeded our expectations.
"He made us feel SO comfortable and peaceful on our wedding day."
ALEX + CALEB
Josh made us feel comfortable from our first photo shoot. He brought out our natural smiles and giggles, and all the feelings you can see in the photos are just so genuine. He’s going to be our photographer for the rest of our lives.

Need to add some extra time to your package? I offer the option to add a-la-carte hours at any point throughout our time together. See, I've got you.

It'd be a shame for wedding memories to only ever live in an online gallery – my signature albums are a STUNNING way to remember and show off your photos for years to come.

I'm fully confident in my ability to document your day by myself, but if you'd like to discuss adding a second photographer to capture additional angles and moments, let's chat!
