When the cake is eaten, the flowers are dried, and the day is done - photographs are the one thing you'll have left of the fleeting moments that comprise your wedding day. If you are going to invest in one thing on your wedding day, it should be your photographer. I am here to document every sweet detail and every fleeting moment. As you look back on your wedding gallery 1, 10, 20, and 50 years later, you'll remember all of the anticipation before your first look, getting ready with all of your best friends while blaring "Love on Top," the carefully-chosen centerpieces, that first kiss, your brother ripping his pants on the dance floor, and so much more. You can't ever get those moments back - that's why I'm here to capture all of the moments big and small. And that is worth investing in.
I CREATE imagery that HONORS you as a couple - that speaks to exactly how THESE FLEETING MOMENTS felt.

Reach out via my contact form. I will personally reply with your custom packages and more information. We can also hop on a call if you prefer to chat that way! You'll choose a package, sign the contract, and pay the retainer ($2,000). Then you'll be welcomed to the TBP crew!
We will plan your engagement session and get to know each other. I'll send you resources along the way to help you with wedding planning and getting the best wedding photos possible. We will chat before the wedding to make sure we have a solid timeline and I have all of the details.
Now that we're comfortable with one another, I'll come seamlessly document your wedding day, prioritizing your vision. 4-8 weeks after your wedding, I'll deliver your gallery filled with images that will make bring on the tears and the laughs.
