Just a little housekeeping reminder! 🤍

While I absolutely love connecting with you all through Instagram, my DMs aren’t always the most reliable place for inquiries. Between conversations, story replies, and messages getting buried, it’s unfortunately pretty easy for things to get missed!

If you’re looking to book with me, have questions about a session, or want to chat about your wedding, email is always the best way to reach me!

I genuinely never want anyone to feel like I’m ignoring them or that their message has gone unnoticed. Keeping inquiries through email just allows me to stay a little more organized and give everyone the time and attention they deserve.

So, if you’ve sent me a DM and haven’t heard back, please don’t be afraid to follow up via email! I promise I’m not intentionally ghosting you.

P.S. I’ve also noticed that some of my email replies have been landing in people’s junk/spam folders lately (the joys of technology 🙃). So if you’ve sent an inquiry and haven’t heard back, please check there too! Chances are I’ve already responded and my email is just hiding somewhere it shouldn’t be. 🤍

Emily & Cole.

I’m convinced fall engagement sessions will forever have my heart. Especially when they involve wandering through cute neighbourhoods, finding random spots to shoot, and getting a little creative along the way.

There’s just something about fall photos that makes everything feel a little cozier. The warm tones, the soft light, the layers, the way everything somehow feels a little more intimate this time of year.
It’s such a short season here, but damn does it photograph beautifully. 🍂

A little Sunday love 🤍

Today was my first Jewish wedding and it was so freaking sweet. So much tradition, so much family, so much energy and just so many moments that felt really special to witness.

I’ve photographed a lot of weddings at this point, but I love that this job still gives me firsts. New traditions, new people, new stories and completely different ways of celebrating.

September really said winter wedding today.

It was freezing, the wind was doing the absolute most, and somehow Mina + Steve still made the whole day feel warm.

I spend a lot of wedding days watching people through my camera, and I think you can always tell when two people just feel like home to each other. It’s in the way they naturally reach for one another, the little looks between moments, and how everything else seems to become background noise.

That was Mina + Steve today.

Cold day. Warm love. Really beautiful story to photograph.

High school sweethearts to husband + wife. 🤍

There’s something really freaking special about getting to photograph a love that has already lived so much life together. Chase + Tyson have grown up together, grown alongside each other, and today I got to document the day they finally got to say, “we’re married.”

These are the days that remind me how lucky I am that this is my job.

What a beautiful freaking day for two people who have been choosing each other for years.

One of my favourite parts about engagement sessions with my wedding couples is honestly just getting the pre-wedding jitters out of the way.

You get to figure out what it feels like being in front of my camera, I get to learn how you two naturally interact, what makes you laugh, what feels like you and by the time the wedding rolls around, we’ve already done this whole thing together once.

No awkward “hi nice to finally meet you, now go make out in front of me” on your wedding day

Tiffany + Seth got their practice round in, and safe to say they absolutely crushed it. 🤍

Tonight’s engagement session felt like we accidentally stepped out of Edmonton and straight into a little NYC love story🗽🚕🍎

Tonight’s dreamy engagement session felt like it was out of the notebook.
