Experience
Coral Reef Studios
I’ve been a photographer for 17 years. I grew up on a farm in North Carolina and absolutely loved my childhood there. Being surrounded by nature and wide-open spaces shaped the way I see the world and the way I capture it through my camera.
I later found myself drawn to the coast and eventually to Florida, where I fell in love with the water and coastal lifestyle. Today, I primarily shoot along both the east and west coasts of Florida, while also traveling up to the North Carolina coast, including the Outer Banks. I spent many summers growing up in the Outer Banks, and it will always feel like a second home.
Weddings have been my primary focus for the past eight years, though I’ve been part of the wedding industry for 17 years. Capturing such meaningful moments for couples is something I’m deeply passionate about, and I truly can’t imagine doing anything else. XO

FAQ
01. How do we book you for the wedding?
I’d love to photograph your wedding! To book your date, I just send over a contract and retainer invoice. Once those are completed, your date is officially reserved, and we start planning everything together
02. Do you travel for destination weddings?
Yes, absolutely! I travel for destination weddings all the time. Honestly, get us on a plane and let’s go — I’m always up for an adventure. I’ll go wherever your wedding takes me. That said, some of my favorite places to photograph are the Outer Banks of North Carolina, the coastal waterways of Florida, and Charleston, South Carolina. I love anything by the water, but I’m always excited to travel anywhere to capture a couple’s day.
03. How do you handle family photos on the wedding day?
Family photos are something I handle in a very organized and efficient way so they’re quick and stress-free for everyone. Before the wedding, I have my couples create a family photo list so we know exactly which groupings are important to them. On the wedding day, I step in and guide the process—calling out each group, positioning everyone, and moving through the list one by one. I run this part of the day in a very type-A, structured way so we stay on schedule and no important family members are missed. It keeps things smooth, fast, and allows everyone to get back to enjoying the celebration.
04. Do you offer engagement sessions?
Yes! I do offer engagement sessions, and they’re actually included in my wedding packages. It’s a great opportunity for us to get to know each other before the wedding day and for you both to get comfortable in front of the camera. I include locations within about 45 minutes of my area, and those don’t have any additional travel cost. If you’d like to go somewhere a little farther for your session, that’s absolutely an option as well—there’s just a small travel fee for anything outside of that 45-minute range.
