Meet Your Photographer

Photography entered my life through a basic film class, a typical introduction for many. It was only after inheriting my grandfather's vintage cameras that I delved deeper into perfecting my craft with film.

Initially, photography was just a skilled hobby. It wasn't until my own wedding that my perspective shifted. Despite the traditional festivities and elaborate celebration (table dashing, cake cutting, dances, crazy family antics at the bar?!), I found myself mentally exhausted by the end of the day.

It was only when reviewing our wedding photos that I realized I wished we had done something more personal and true to ourselves, rather than focusing on pleasing everyone else.

At Lovely & Co, it's not a glorified "photoshoot"- This is your wedding day!
  

I'm dedicated to more than just capturing amazing photos.

My primary focus is on providing compassionate, non-judgmental expert guidance. I strive to forge meaningful connections with you, empowering you to feel completely relaxed during your wedding day.  It's all about crafting an authentically YOU experience.

In my personal and humble opinion, the wedding industry often detracts from making your wedding day truly about you. It seems to prioritize the venue, the cake, the food, the guests, the obligatory dances, entrances, exits... all of it!

Wouldn't it be refreshing to customize your day exactly as you wish? Let's discard the rule book, traditions, and expectations. This is your wedding—do it the way you want to—and I'll be there to assist every step of the way!
