Stunning photos EVERY time!

Lisa had done family photos for my family back in 2018, and when I got engaged in 2021, I just knew we wanted her to do our engagement photos and our wedding. She is lovely to work with and will help you along each step of the way (even if you're not entirely comfortable in front of a camera). Every time she has blown me away with the images and life she captures in the photos. These are the visual memories of huge life events, and Lisa nails it every time. She captures the beauty of every moment and the feelings we felt on our wedding day are able to be relived over and over again just by looking through the photos. Her work is truly priceless and I would highly recommend her to anyone!
