CRAFTING WILD,  

SOULFUL ELOPEMENTS IN

NORTHERN MICHIGAN

I’m your resident Northern Michigan lover and adventure photographer. And I’m seriously doing a dorky happy dance, because something in my photography resonated with you. I always have my favorite locations saved, and genuinely love that I’m able to live my daydream, and connect with adventurous souls through my work.

I’m not afraid to run or climb to get the best angle, get into the water, or spend the extra time it takes to create photographs that tell your story. Whether you’re having an intimate ceremony on the lakeshore, or throwing a wild dance party in an orchard, I’ll document your connection and intimacy while having a hell of a good time!

FILM & SUPER 8

CONTACT FOR RATES

Adding film photos to your wedding brings a layer of nostalgia, artistry, and timeless beauty that digital can’t quite replicate. Here’s why couples love including film photography in their wedding day:

✨ 1. It captures emotion differently.

Film has a softness and depth that naturally enhances the emotion of a moment. The tones feel organic, skin looks dreamy, and the light feels alive — it’s less about perfection and more about feeling.

🎞️ 2. It tells your story with timeless texture.

Film photographs have a grain, warmth, and depth that give your gallery a romantic, cinematic quality. Decades from now, your wedding photos will still feel classic — not tied to editing trends or filters.

📷 3. It slows things down.

Each frame on film is intentional. Your photographer takes the time to compose each shot carefully, creating a calm, artful rhythm that balances the fast-paced energy of the day.
