Kind words from Meaghan + drew

"Her ability to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera makes the entire experience so fun and you get such natural photos"

"From someone who typically never likes photos of themselves, Vanessa was able to capture so many photos that I absolutely adore! She is so kind and cares so deeply about making sure her clients are happy and will go above and beyond especially when the weather is not cooperating.

Vanessa is super communicative and guides you through the entire process. Her ability to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera makes the entire experience so fun and you get such natural photos. I cannot recommend her enough!"

"My husband and I are no where near naturals in front of the camera and yet Vanessa effortlessly guided us through the whole process and made us feel so comfortable."

kind words from hayley + taylor

"Do not hesitate on choosing Vanessa! She is kind, knows her craft, is super talented and is wholeheartedly invested in capturing the most beautiful photos for you! Vanessa has now taken both my engagement and anniversary photos and they are easily some of my favorite photos I’ve ever had taken. My husband and I are no where near naturals in front of the camera and yet Vanessa effortlessly guided us through the whole process and made us feel so comfortable. If you’re looking for someone who is invested in capturing the best for you, she’s your girl!"

"Not only did she hike up a mountain at dawn for us, she captured our ceremony beautifully despite pretty crazy wind!"

kind words from asha + matthew

"Vanessa photographed our COVID elopement and was incredible! Not only did she hike up a mountain at dawn for us, she captured our ceremony beautifully despite pretty crazy wind! The photo turnaround was (incredibly) quick and we have the most gorgeous photos for the rest of our lives. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!"

Let's start planning!

Here's My simple steps for easy planning

ADVENTUROUS | WARM | INTENTIONAL | THOUGHT-PROVOKING | ROMANTIC | TIMELESS

I can't wait to pet him/her!

Did you know that most of my couples choose to have their dogs for their engagement session? Or that they're allowed in some state parks in certain seasons and even a select amount of trails in our national park system? Pretty damn cool.

We can take portraits together and then hand your pup over to a trusted member of the family or put him or her back in the car if it's not too warm. Dogs make engagement sessions so fun!

we want to bring our dog!

Let me guess, you want your dog with you on your day? Great!

Nope! Part of the magic that comes with receiving your photos from me is seeing them as a finished product. Think of getting RAWS as the ingredients to your meal instead of the finished plate at a restaurant. Nobody wants that!

I have photographed many engagement sessions before and know a thing or two about planning the most perfect outfits. Upon booking, you'll have access to my outfit guide which is full of tips and tricks on how to best match each other and your surroundings. It even explains how your outfits help to convey your love and emotion for each other.

During my busy season, expect to wait 2-4 weeks for your engagement photo gallery. Depending on your coverage, expect anywhere from 75-150 photos.

You bet I can. Upon booking, I send you a location guide and love to hear your favorite places too. After collecting that information, we'll talk more about your session and ultimately choose the best location for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Kind of! Once your agreement is signed through Honeybook, I take a 50% non-refundable deposit and the remaining balance is due two weeks before your session. It's never due all at once!

Of course I do! Once you receive your full gallery from me, please feel free to checkout the online store. You can order everything from prints, canvases, albums, and more. I'll walk you through the process and also create custom albums designs.
