PHOTOGRAPHER + EDUCATOR

My goal with every single shoot is to preserve your unique relationship in its most authentic and adventurous form, creating memories that resonate and stories that last a lifetime. After all, you only get one life, so fucking live it 🤘🏼

But my passion doesn’t stop there. I also love sharing my expertise and insights with fellow photographers, helping them grow and elevate their craft. Whether it’s through mentorship, behind-the-scenes guidance, or sharing tips and tricks I’ve learned over the years, I’m here to support others in capturing moments that matter just as much. Let’s create, learn, and live boldly—together.

1. Timeline

More than likely you already have a timeline from either your planner or photographer. Just make sure you have a copy and so does your photographer to ensure a smooth wedding day!

2. Details Box

What is a detail box? This will have all the items needed for photos. Here are some items to put in there. 

  • Ring box
  • Rings
  • Invitation suite
  • Your wedding jewelry
  • Your shoes
  • Family heirlooms 
  • Anything else sentimental for detailed photos

3. Shot list

Your photographer will likely ask for a list of family photos or wedding party photos. Put together a list of pictures that you want so nothing is missed or forgotten. This also helps the photographer keep pictures quick and timely.

4. A Vendor Meal

If your photographer is staying during the reception or during a meal they need to be fed just like you and your guests. No one likes working on an empty stomach!
