Whether you need a bustle, a touch-up, someone to carry your train, or hand you a tissue we’ve got you! Think of us as professional bridesmaids, in fact, we even come prepared with our emergency bridal kit.
Being “there” for our couples and their loved ones is what we do best.
You’ve got a friend in me
It's personal
I get to know your story so that I can guarantee on your wedding day we know what matters most. This also means there's a really good chance I might tear up during your first look, your vows, or your first dance… okay maybe all of the above!
Being emotionally invested in your day means that your pictures will not only be beautiful they will undeniably you.
Grab the tissues
I understand the moments I am capturing will become treasured memories someday. When I see the father of the groom who’s battling cancer twirling his grand-daughters around on the dance floor or the Bride sharing a dance with her grandmother who’s dealing with dementia and is having a "good day" I know these are more than moments, they are precious pieces of a legacy, and I am capturing them with the deepest love and respect in my heart.
I love having fun with my clients but there comes a point at every wedding where I am touched deep within my soul.
Yes, I'm really THAT committed
If there is something that needs doing... rain or shine I am your girl!
I have photographed a wedding on a freshly broken foot and waited until the wedding was complete to go to the hospital
I have rolled up my pants and waded into a lake to get the perfect shot
I have even moved a piano during a site visit.

CONNECT
We only work with a select amount of couples each year, so it is important to us that we are a good fit for each other. Getting to know you is the first step (and it's one of my favorites)!
I love getting to know my couples. Learning about your story and what's matters most to you is the first step in working together.
I am genuinely interested in YOU. I believe your story, your relationship, and your vision is unique. Getting to know you beforehand, allows me to capture your wedding day in a way that is personalized to reflect what matters most to you.
step ONE
You have your dream venue secured. Now it's time to find your photographer.
how it all works...
Engagement Session
This session is an opportunity for us to work together before the wedding day, it allows you a glimpse of what it will be like to be professionally photographed together before the biggest day of your life. Similarly it allows me to learn even more about you. This session helps me learn to capture your unique chemistry in a way that authentically reflects you. Most importantly your Engagement Session is designed with you in mind, this is a time for you to escape the pressures of wedding planning and just enjoy being engaged to the love of your life!
step TWO
The Engagement Session is our first experience making magic together!

WEDDING PREP
Your Engagement session was so fun! But now it's time to get down to planning the details of your day and I am here for you every step of the way!
No two weddings are the same, your personalized timeline will be built to ensure that your wedding day is stress free, and allows for all the wedding coverage you desire.

Every SMP couple receives a customized wedding day timeline.
TIMELINE &
WEDDING
DAY
Rest assured the one thing you don’t have to worry about is your wedding photography. My team and I are there to ensure that your wedding day is not only documented beautifully but that you are completely taken care of. Whether your need help with your carrying your dress, a bobby pin for your hair, or you just need help wrangling a rowdy crowd for that special family portrait. The SMP experience is all about being helpful when needed and blending in when it’s time to capture those quiet candids.
step FOUR
This is it! The day you have been waiting for.
YOUR
REVEAL
Your can expect your wedding images approximately six weeks after your wedding day. We invite you to cozy up with your other half, pop some bubbly, and make an evening out of viewing your images for the first time together.

step FIVE
Reliving your happiest moments all over again, and experiencing new ones that you never knew happened.
THE
LEGACY
The laughter that is shared between friends, the tender moment of a tear rolling down a cheek, and the look on your fiancés face when they see you for the first time, are all part of a greater narrative. This is your story and it is worth preserving. I believe you and your loved ones deserve more than just digital files… I want to help you preserve your legacy… to provide physical evidence of a life well lived. Your albums and wall collections are designed to be impactful pieces of art, that serve as reminders of what matters most in your life. They are meant to be held, flipped through and passed down. Most of all they are designed to be transporters of time, breathing life into moments since past.
