Your bridal look is one you'll remember forever! 🤍 I know it can be overwhelming though to select each aspect of it, from the gown to jewelry to a veil to your bridal bouquet. You want every component to be just perfect, so how do you decide? ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Here are a few tips to help get you started!

👰‍♀️ I know dress shopping is one of the most exciting parts of wedding planning, but I encourage you to select your venue and overall wedding style first! Your wedding vibe will help inform your dress style, no matter if you're going for a classic look, a beachy look, or a sleek and modern look.

👰‍♀️ Infuse your wedding colors into your look. This typically comes into play when selecting the colors, textures, and flower types for your bridal bouquet, but you can also incorporate these hues into your wedding nails, shoes, and even jewelry!

👰‍♀️ Consider incorporating meaningful pieces, whether it's an heirloom piece of jewelry or a special locket or charm to wrap around your bouquet. It's personal details like this that will make your look truly your own!

Are you dreaming of including your best furry friend in your big day? Whether your pal serves as your ring bearer, flower pup, or even best dog, here are some things to keep in mind:​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​🐶 Pack a Doggy Bag - Make sure to pack the essentials for the day-of, including a water bowl, food, treats, toys, and dog shoes if your venue is outdoors on a hot day!

🐶 Designate a Handler - Assign someone from your party or hire a professional to be a designated doggy handler, so you can be sure that your pup is taken care of throughout the wedding.

🐶 Locate a Safe Haven - Plan for a safe, quiet area where your dog and handler can go during the reception, so your dog doesn't get overstimulated by all the people and noise.

What is a shot list and do you need one? The answer is yes and here's why:​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
A shot list is a list of must-have photos from your wedding day. This most often includes different family member combinations, but can also entail special detail shots or specific backdrops for your newlywed portraits. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
A shot list is imperative because we don’t want to miss any crucial shots that are important to you! Whether this means a family photo with your dog, a special photo with you and your best friends or a close-up of a family heirloom that you're incorporating into your wedding design, it's my goal to preserve every significant moment on camera for you. ​​​​​​​​

Planning a wedding can be a whirlwind, but with a few key tips, you can make the journey smooth and enjoyable! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​📝 Start Early: Give yourself plenty of time to plan and make decisions. A well-organized timeline can alleviate a lot of stress.

📝 Choose Your Dream Team: Hire vendors you trust and whose work you admire. Great professionals can turn your vision into reality. Photography should be top on your list since many photographers only book one wedding a weekend!

📝 Have Fun! Remember, it's your special day. Embrace the joy, and don’t sweat the small stuff.

Happy planning, lovebirds!

Have you ever heard of the wedding shoe game? This game is a popular choice because it's engaging, humorous, and offers a glimpse into the dynamics of the newlywed couple's relationship, making it a memorable part of the reception for everyone involved. Here's how it works:​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​👠 The bride and groom sit back to back in chairs, holding one of their own shoes and one of their partner's shoes. Alternatively, they can simply hold their own shoes.

👠 The host or MC asks a series of questions that are typically about the couple, their relationship, preferences, or habits. These questions are prepared in advance and can range from light-hearted to more personal.

👠 For each question asked by the host, the bride and groom raise the shoe of the person they think best fits the answer to the question. For example, if the question is "Who is the better cook?" the bride might raise the groom's shoe if she thinks he is the better cook, and vice versa.

Would you want to play this game at your wedding? Tell us in the comments!

When considering your first dance and all the nerves that can come along with it, here are some tips to help make it your favorite part of the day:​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​⭐ Select a song that is meaningful to both of you as a couple. Consider the lyrics, tempo, and overall feel of the song to ensure it reflects your personalities and the mood you want to create.

⭐ Decide how you want to enter the dance floor and how you'll exit after the dance. This can add to the overall presentation and make the moment more memorable.

⭐ Don't put too much pressure on yourselves to perform perfectly. The first dance is about celebrating your love and commitment, so relax, smile, and enjoy the moment together!

And don’t worry about me - I will be capturing your moment from every angle!

Wedding cakes have been a significant part of wedding celebrations for centuries, and their inclusion in weddings carries both historical and cultural significance. The cake cutting ceremony is a beloved wedding tradition and a prime photo opportunity. It captures a joyful and often playful moment between the couple, creating memories that last a lifetime. That's why this is one of my favorite moments of a wedding day! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​And also…. who doesn’t love cake? 🍰

Many times on social media, the "highlight" moments of a wedding day are shown off, like the newlyweds' first kiss or the first dance. But the story of your wedding is more than just the major festivities. It's also about all the little moments in between! ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​From when you get ready for the day with your best friends to the kiss you steal with your new spouse during dinner to the laughs you share on the dance floor, I strive to capture all of these moments and more through photojournalism.

I can’t wait to share these special moments with you and your love!

A unity sand ceremony is a beautiful and meaningful addition to your wedding ceremony. 💖​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​It provides a lasting memento and is a tangible representation of your commitment to each other and the merging of your two lives.

When planning a sand ceremony, make sure to have two different sand colors (and any other colors you wish if you are blending families), three containers for the sand, and a sturdy table to place it on!

Every detail in your wedding design tells your love story. From the flowers to the rings, each piece of your wedding day is a chapter you’ll cherish forever. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​A good wedding photographer is focused on each moment with a keen awareness.

What’s one thing you shouldn’t forget on your wedding day? Your smile 😁 While there won’t be any shortage of smiles on this special day, I know that sometimes smiles can feel forced when you're posing for a picture, especially if you're not used to being in front of the camera. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I always strive to help your smile reach all the way to your eyes to showcase your truest and most authentic joy. I help you achieve this with natural prompts, establishing a cool, calm, and collected vibe when taking portraits, and of course, taking candids!

Your authentic smile can most easily be found when you're having fun, talking with each other, dancing, or cutting your wedding cake. It’s these moments that will add liveliness and zest to your wedding album.

How do you showcase your personalities into your wedding day? Here are some points to consider as you plan to make your wedding uniquely you: ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​✨ Your wedding should reflect who you are as a couple. Infusing your personalities into the details makes the day feel genuine and authentic to you. Easy design elements to personalize include: your seating chart, table numbers, ceremony programs, and guest favors.

✨ Personal elements can engage your guests more effectively. When they see parts of your personality in the wedding, it can make them feel more connected to you and the celebration. Have a beloved fur baby that can't attend the wedding? Show them off with custom cocktail napkins with their face on it or name your signature cocktails after them!

✨ Personalizing your wedding allows you to be creative and have fun with the planning process. Whether it’s a quirky cake topper, a favorite hobby incorporated into the decor, or a unique theme, these details can add joy to the experience.
