Hi, I'm Emily your favorite weirdo & Wedding Photographer
I am a photographer
Because...
I know how much a photograph
means when that's all you have left.
My goal is to run this business as authentically as possible and be myself at all times so that you can feel genuinely yourselves in front of the camera.
My late husband, Zach, and I went through an incredible journey together and that is where my love for wedding photography blossomed. We met in 2007, started dating in 2011 and got married in 2019. I fell in love with his sweet and quiet personality, and knew he was a keeper when he would laugh at my bad jokes and bring me coffee every morning.
In 2016, things got real for us: Zach was diagnosed with Leukemia.
For years we were on a roller coaster ride of ups and downs with his health and strength. During our wedding planning Zach had a relapse. We nearly had to cancel our wedding in 2019. But, per usual, we rolled with the punches and were able to enjoy the most amazing day of our lives together.
Then...
(but who doesn't love an underdog?)
The story of how I got here is pretty messy
In the summer of 2021 I lost Zach due to a rare side effect from treatment.
My world changed in a split second. It feels taboo in so many situations to talk about grief. In my experience, it is so much more helpful to honor it. I take my grief, and love for Zach everywhere I go.
life got real
(again).
Throughout the journey of him and I meeting, falling in love, being there for each other on our hardest days, and enjoying each other on our best days, one thing that was consistent for us was appreciating the small moments. The intimate times where no one else is watching. Those are the moments I will cherish for a lifetime, and beyond.
Life is fragile, life is amazing, life is heavy.
All of these memories and experiences are what I bring to each wedding I photograph.
Shifting my focus towards people and moments has allowed me to capture memories.
Photos are one of the only things from your wedding that
over time.
Be sure your memories are
documented by someone who gets it.
