If being present matters more than performing, we’ll get along just fine.

I photograph weddings with intention and structure, stepping in when direction is helpful and staying out of the way when it’s not.

The focus is always on how the day feels, not manufacturing moments for the camera.

Wedding Investment Guide

What kind of coverage actually fits your day?

Choose what sounds most like your wedding and I’ll point you toward the best fit.

1. When is your wedding?

2. How much of the day do you want covered?

3. What matters most?

Wedding or event decor with white flowers, a pearl necklace, and printed cards with 'H R' and floral designs on a table.

THIS MIGHT BE YOUR KIND OF WEDDING...

• Family & friends come first.
• Real moments matter more than perfect poses.
• You'd rather be present than perform for the camera.
• You care more about how it felt than how it looked online.

If that's you, don't worry, I won't make you stare at each other for 30 straight minutes.

What I do on your wedding day

I’m there to keep things moving without making the day feel rushed or staged.

I help build a realistic timeline, keep family photos efficient, step in with direction when it’s needed, and fade into the background when it’s not.

You stay present. I handle the flow.

The Reveal Party

Some couples choose to come back to the studio for a Reveal Party, a relaxed night where they see their wedding story on the big screen and relive the moments together.

Moments land differently, emotions hit harder, and your wedding doesn’t get reduced to a phone scroll.

This is where your photos come to life, and where your story actually settles in.

Intimate Weddings

Not every wedding needs a full day of coverage. If you’re planning something smaller, a backyard celebration, a lakeside ceremony, or a quiet gathering with your closest people, intimate wedding collections begin at 4 hours of coverage.

And if your heart is set somewhere bigger than Michigan…I’ll meet you there!

I’ve photographed weddings and elopements in Ireland, Colorado, Arizona, Washington, and Jamaica, and I’m always happy to meet couples wherever their story takes them, mountains included.

Your intimate wedding collection will always include:

• One photographer
• Up to 4 hours of coverage
• Timeline planning assistance
• Professionally edited images
• Online gallery + high-resolution downloads

  • Intimate weddings are typically celebrations with fewer than 40–50 guests or elopement-style days focused on a meaningful location and a smaller group of loved ones. These weddings often have a simpler timeline and less formal structure, which is why shorter coverage works well.

  • Absolutely. If your heart is set somewhere beyond Michigan, I’m always happy to meet you there. I regularly travel for weddings and even bring my teardrop camper for some locations so I can stay nearby and explore the area ahead of time. Travel coverage can always be customized depending on where your story takes you.

  • No problem. Many intimate weddings add a little extra time once the timeline is finalized. Additional coverage can always be added, so we can make sure everything important is documented without feeling rushed.
