THIS IS FOR YOU AND YOUR LEGACY

Couples

Capturing you two for who you truly are. Sweet, wild, steamy or goofy - your personalities set the tone.

Engagement

For the wildly in love couples who aren’t shy to show it. The snuggles, the kisses, the butt grabs - let me capture your spark!

Elopement

Eternal love. Let’s capture your story you will tell your grandkids about 50 years from now.

WHAT AWAITS YOU


I want you to feel comfortable and let go all while I’m capturing your most authentic moments. The beautiful, the crazy and the intimate.
The goosebumps. The belly laughs. The connection. The loud & the quiet. The happily unplanned. The eternal love. Whatever your adventure may be, it deserves to be remembered for decades to come.

You feel awkward in front of a camera? Yeah, me too, but don’t you worry, I got you. My main focus above all else is that my couples are having a good time. Most of my couples show up uneasy saying “Sorry, we’re awkward and hate getting our photo taken”, and by the end they’re going on about how easy and fun it was.


What you can expect:

  • Guidance throughout your experience from start to finsih

  • Fun and memorable session without stiff posing

  • Your tenderhearted moments being captured authentically

To be able to fully commit myself to your experience, I only take on a limited amount of sessions per month and I only offer my service to likeminded people who share similar values and love my work for the essence of it.

 

AUTHENTIC IMAGERY

Come on an adventure with me. Let go, dream big and live your best life. I will manifest your love story in poetic photographs.
I want to capture your true essence. All the goofyness and sweetness that makes it real. All I’m asking for is for you to trust me and to be ready for embracing the moment. It’s my highest priority to make you feel comfortable and be yourself.

MINDSET

Feeling all the good vibes for one another is going to come across in your photos; therefore, expectation setting is key. If you’re looking for those dreamy and carefree photos, please communicate your vision with your partner - being on the same page about expectations is absolutely crucial. You will see most of my images show couples interacting with each other, sharing an intimate moment or just fully embracing themselves. Only very few photos are smiling into the camera - meaning you should expect to also fully be in the moment during your photo session - basically pretend I’m not even there.

So get ready to:

  • Be your authentic self

  • Show your love for each other

  • Be present an have fun

Every couple's story is so different. I make sure that the way I’m interacting, shooting, and editing is reflective of who my couples are and how things actually felt. It’s a lot of small little things like this that go a long way.

WHAT THEY SAY…

“During the photoshoot with her, she made my husband and I feel very comfortable with the whole experience. She let our genuine personalities stand out all while gracefully leading us through the journey. It really shows in the photographs as well! Her photographs are truly a piece of art work!”

- Itzel & Shawn, Kaiserslautern

PRICING

Something as personal and unique as having your photographs taken is surely not an everyday thing. The resulting memories should be considered not as an expense, but as an investment.

In our modern world of selfies, you might be asking… why on earth would I hire a photographer to do something I can just do myself?

Creating, capturing and preserving meaningful moments reminds us of our love for one another. I hate to break it to you, but we all won’t be here forever. Your children (and grandchildren!) are going to want to look back at beautiful photos of you in the future, and reminisce about you. Make those moments count by being present, fully embracing them and letting me take care of the rest.
