Your wedding day deserves space to unfold naturally.

From quiet moments to joyful celebrations, our approach is calm, unobtrusive, and deeply intentional — allowing you to remain present while your story is documented with care.

​

Each collection includes:

  • Thoughtful planning guidance

  • Timeless, true-to-life editing

  • A curated online gallery designed for longevity

  • Full galleries are delivered within 3–16 weeks, depending on the season and length of your coverage. ☆ Spring and fall tend to fall closer to the longer end of that window, as I personally hand-edit each image to ensure quality.

​

Location & Travel:

The prices listed in this guide reflect weddings and elopements for locations within 50 miles of Decatur, TN [37322] and Cumming, GA [30040].

 

For celebrations beyond this radius, a travel fee will apply, ensuring I can bring the same level of care, artistry, and attention to every detail, no matter where your day takes place.

For the Gatlinburg/Sevierville area, a travel fee of $300 applies.

1 / Engagement - starting at $475

An engagement session is the perfect way for us to connect and get you feeling comfortable in front of the camera before the big day. The result? More relaxed, natural wedding photos that really capture you. Plus, those beautiful images can be used for your Save the Dates, invites, or any other wedding stationery.

2 / Videographer - $1,475 - $4,175

Adding videography to your wedding package captures the motion, sound, and emotion that photos alone can’t fully convey. From a short, cinematic highlight reel to a full-length film, video lets you relive the laughter, vows, and music of your day exactly as it happened. It’s the perfect way to preserve the soundtrack of your memories and share the story with loved ones for a lifetime.

3 / Second Photographer - $175/hr

Adding a second photographer ensures every angle and moment of your wedding day is captured, from the candid reactions to the carefully planned details. While one photographer focuses on the main events, the second can document additional perspectives — the joy in the crowd, intimate moments backstage, and behind-the-scenes magic. It’s the perfect way to double your coverage without missing a single memory.

4 / Bridal Portraits - $475

A bridal portrait session is a great way to test out your hair and makeup trial in your wedding dress before the big day. It’s the perfect chance to make any tweaks and feel extra confident.

6 / Rehearsal or Welcome Party - starting at $375

​Including photography at your rehearsal dinner is the perfect way to capture all the special moments—like heartfelt gift exchanges or those little details that make the night unforgettable. It’s a great way to relive the excitement with your loved ones and keep those memories as you lead up to your big day.

7 / Styled Session - starting at $575

This is perfect for couples who want to revisit their wedding attire and create stunning images in unique settings. Whether it's an adventure session in nature, an urban backdrop, or an elegant studio shoot, this magazine worthy photoshoot allows you to express your love in a way that fits your personal style. Perfect for couples looking for extra memories after the big day!

8 / Premium Wedding Album - starting at $300

A premium wedding album is the perfect way to preserve your most cherished moments. With a luxurious leather cover, thick pages, and custom layouts, it’s designed to tell your story in the most beautiful way. Preordering with your package guarantees a stress-free, professionally designed album—at the best price—ready to be treasured for years to come.

9 / Officiant $400

To make your planning even simpler, you may add officiant services to your package. A trusted licensed officiant I partner with will lead your ceremony with care and intention.
