Engagements

More than just pretty pictures. images that make your most meaningful memories tangible.

An engagement session is so much more than just a photoshoot—it's a chance to tell your unique love story during this exciting chapter. My approach is to capture the authentic, in-between moments that show who you are as a couple. Whether we're exploring a new neighborhood or revisiting a special spot, we'll create images that feel genuine, joyful, and uniquely you.



INVESTMENT

It's also a perfect way for us to get to know each other and for you to feel comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day.

Frequently asked questions

how do I book a session?

Shoot over to my contact page and fill out the form. We can look at dates and get something in the works!

I love fall engagement sessions but any time of the year is perfect. I don't think there is such a thing as too soon to get in for your photos

how far in advance should we book?

do you provide unedited images?

I do not. I am providing images in line with my portfolio. I would hope that you're here because you like my work and style. 

do I have to pay travel fees?

If your engagement session is within 25 miles of 60643 then no. Otherwise we can work on that on a case by case basis.
