About The Artist

The Artist's Statement

01

rooted in legacy

I believe that your wedding day is day one of your marriage. I delight in all the details and event highlights of the wedding, but in the end, it's the people by your side and the promises you give each other that truly matter. Taking a beautiful photo is the job of every photographer, but taking a meaningful photo that stirs you to tears and captures the spirit of your loved ones, that's where I come in.

02

an emphasis on your loved ones

When I became a mother, I quit my corporate job in the counseling field to capture the memories of my brides in a way that honors the family members that surround you. Your wedding day is grand event in your lifetime, and it's also an incredible day for your mothers, siblings, and grandparents. It's a new chapter in your family legacy. I take great joy in telling the story of the family members who brought you to this place, which is why I specialize in multi day events, to fully immerse myself in your families.

03

a refined eye for the forgotten details

I have a great fascination for history and art, and I"ll spend weeks roaming ancient streets and museums when given the chance. The principles of aesthetic and the history of art are the foundation of my artistic voice. I work closely with the planner and guide my couples through the engagement in order to prepare a cohesive wedding day story that is not only filled with raw emotion, but is a storyline built on timeless art principles, exquisite coloring, and perfected true-to-life colors.

emily's approach to posing

My background in the counseling field has given me the innate ability to set others at ease and help bring genuine emotion to the surface so I can capture images of romantic depth. I guide couples in a relaxed and conversational way, composing intentinoal imagery that feels fully candid and effortless. I'm always searching for moments of humor and delight, and I'm very comfortable and warm to be around. 

05

on skin tones and inclusivity 

I believe that every person deserves portraits that honor their heritage, their culture, and their individuality. My theory on color and editing is built to beautifully capture skin tones of every depth and tone. I take great pride in my work with multicultural and multiracial couples, and each image is individually hand-edited to ensure that  couples with diverse skin tones will be captured in a flattering way.

favorite part of her job

On the wedding morning, when anticipation is high and you're getting ready with your closest people. There are hugs, tears, and time seems to stand still.
