Dallas Wedding Photographer

Dallas Wedding photographer + Super 8 Filmmaker
SERVing THE DFW METRO AREA

Your story is made up of moments–some quiet and tender, others full of life and energy. That’s why I take a documentary-meets-editorial approach. I blend digital and film photography, and Super 8mm video to capture your day in a way that feels real, not staged.

From the quiet in-between moments to the loud, joy-filled celebrations, I focus on the emotion and connection that make your story one of a kind. My goal is to help you stay present while I preserve the feeling of it all exactly as it happened.

While Texas is home, you’ll often find me out West chasing stories–capturing love in its raw, nostalgic beauty through timeless photos and vintage Super 8 video.

As a wife and mom, I understand the importance of preserving real, meaningful moments. My work blends creative storytelling with a documentary-style approach–always focused on how your day felt, not just how it looked.

When i'm not behind the camera...

I’m likely tending to my microhomestead, hiking with my kids, or watching a good true crime doc. I live for the contrast–embracing adventure, and savoring cozy downtime in between.

If you’re newly engaged... ahh, congrats! You’re probably realizing just how many pieces there are to the wedding planning puzzle. Prepping for your engagement session is just one of those steps, and I totally get how it can feel like a lot.

One of the first things couples ask me is, “Where should we take our engagement photos?” With so many beautiful spots around DFW, it can be hard to know where to begin. I’ve put together a list of some of my favorite iconic locations across North Texas to help make that part a little easier.
