Taken Care of!

Emily’s love of photography and excellent people skills shine through her work! Emily will make you feel comfortable capturing both your personality and making you feel beautiful! As someone who has struggled with seeing themselves in photographs for a long time I was worried I wouldn’t be happy with my engagement and/ or wedding photos not due to the photographer but due to my own skewed lens. Emily’s photos are my favorite photos of myself capturing both my personality and making me feel beautiful! If you want someone who can call the shots, is extremely organized and has a beautiful eye for photography hire Emily you won’t be disappointed!

Best experience- one less thing to stress about!

Best experience! Emily was amazing to work with during the whole wedding process. The engagement photos were a great way to get to know each other and become comfortable so that the wedding day ran smoothly. Emily was very quick to respond to all our questions and was able to accommodate our ideas. Having Emily on your side for any occasion makes the stress go away. If you want a friend and photographer all in one, look no further!

Emily is the best!!

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer.. do not look any further!! Emily is your girl!! Not only is she so on top of the timeline and getting all of the shots, but she is also fun, will make you laugh, and will help you feel very comfortable the entire time. My fiancé/now-husband dreads pictures.. except when Emily takes them. She was actually able to make everything enjoyable for him and of course for everyone else as well!

And her work is AMAZING. You will not be disappointed!

Best photographer you could ever ask for!

My wife and I would just like to say thank you to Emily and her sister Amber for being there for us during our most special night! Her work speaks for itself, so this is just a review about Emily the person. We met Emily through a mutual friend. When we first met her during our engagement shoot, we immediately connected with her. It honestly felt like we've been friends for years, and it was such an amazing experience. From the engagement shoot, to our wedding day. She made us so comfortable and brought a lot of joy and happiness throughout. Our dream wedding wouldn't be possible without Emily and her sister Amber. So huge thanks to you guys. Until next time our dear friend! - Michael & Alicia.

The best photography choice you will ever make

Emily did an absolutely AMAZING job! She instantly makes the sessions comfortable and instantly feels like a friend.

She shot my engagement and wedding photos despite it pouring during the engagement session and being an especially windy beach wedding! She was also very kind and caring in my last minute scramble to decide I would like to book her for an extra hour the day before the wedding.

Beyond the photos turning out absolutely stunning and stellar, Emily also has an in depth knowledge of weddings and was the bustle master and truly just jumped in whenever she saw I needed help.

I was very nervous about not being able to pose correctly and Emily gave clear and descriptive directions for the most natural feel. The candid photos were incredible and she truly captured every magical moment.

I will forever be grateful that we chose Emily to be there for us on our wedding day!
