Capturing joyful, authentic moments for down-to-earth couples who cherish family, faith, and fun.

Marion Va Wedding Photographer

Picture this: it’s your wedding day, and you’re surrounded by the people who mean the world to you. There’s laughter echoing in the air, maybe a few happy tears (thanks, Dad), and the kind of moments that make your heart burst.

You’re not stressing about where to stand or how to pose, you’re just living it. That’s where I come in. I’ll capture the big moments and the in between ones.

When it’s all said and done, you’ll have photos that look and feel like you, telling the story of your day exactly as it happened.

Your Day,
Your Story.


No two weddings or elopements are the same. I take the time to craft a custom timeline that reflects your vision, allowing you to relax and savor every moment. With me handling the photography, you can focus on what really matters. Being in the moment with the people you love, while I ensure every detail is captured just as it happens.

How I’m different

Your wedding day is as unique as you are, and I believe your photos should capture who you truly are—fun, relaxed, and in the moment. Whether you're nervous about photos or excited to strike a pose (or maybe both!), it’s not about forcing a perfect look, but about capturing the real emotions and connections that make your day unforgettable. I pride myself on getting to know you and your guests, making sure everyone feels comfortable and included. I’ve seen tons of people who didn’t want to be in front of the camera open up when they see how fun and easy the process can be. By connecting with them, cracking a few jokes, and building trust, I make the whole experience enjoyable for everyone, ensuring everyone feels at ease and ready to be part of the memories.

As a wedding photographer in Virginia. I’ve also learned to anticipate those big moments. With the wedding and elopement experience I’ve gained over the years, I can tell when something special is about to happen. Whether it’s a shared glance, a laugh between the bride and groom, or a tear from a parent, I know what matters most to you and what you’ll treasure in the years to come. By setting the scene and capturing moments as they unfold, I make sure you’ll relive your wedding day through photos that are as real and joyful as the day itself.
