I'm your go-to hype girl with a camera in one hand and a matcha latte in the other! I care deeply about you doing exactly what you want on your wedding day.
Your real moments and memories inspire the work I create for you. No two weddings are the same, so focus on being present, loving deeply, and partying all night with your people. I'll take care of capturing every meaningful moment – big and small.
You deserve photos that show off the love you actually feel – the playful, timeless, words-just-don't-cut-it, unmatched love you know so well. I can't wait to document your love story.
This is about so much more than just beautiful images. It's about being able to hold onto the intangible and fleeting memories, to preserve the love story you're living in, and to remember how it all felt.
Your connection and real memories determine the way your gallery presents itself. The goal is always to capture you and your loved ones as they are in every joyful, emotional, unexpected, and fun moment.
You deserve more than a stranger with a camera showing up on your wedding day. Knowing you and your love story allows me to document your day honestly – the way you and your loved ones see and feel it.
I'll be here as a helping hand, a cheerleader for your love, and a friend always. This milestone deserves the best care and attention, and I'm here for you every step of the way.
From organizing your timeline and wrangling family members to admiring you two dancing freely all night long, I have you covered.
I'll be there documenting all of the "must-have" photos (think: your pretty details, family portraits, your vows, and so on), along with all of the unplanned and unposed moments that make up the full story of your day. Your pictures are a time capsule to a day you'll reminisce on forever.
My natural guidance allows you to feel comfortable in front of my camera, so I can catch those genuine and real emotions.
My couples are all about having a good time, and I'm right there with them. They're undeniably and unapologetically true to themselves – unique, intentional, and wildly in love! If you're doing your day your way, we're going to get along well!

Her wedding photos were the best I had seen (high quality, natural poses, simply gorgeous photos)...We instantly were drawn to her approachable nature, sincerity, professionalism, and passion for her work. Tori was more than a photographer during the wedding planning process. We are beyond obsessed with our wedding photos, they are even better than I could have imaged. We constantly get complimented on our photos. We simply cannot recommend Tori enough, she's THE BEST at what she does, all while making her clients feel comfortable, and ensuring we are having FUN! 10/10 would recommend!
Tori was an absolute delight from start to finish through our journey with her. I worked with her as a bridesmaid in my brother's wedding and knew I needed to book her for my own.
The photos, her energy, and every conversation we had with Tori was super helpful and so much fun. She maintained a calm composure amidst the bit of chaos of our day and truly was a light during some agitating moments... We made a lot of last minute decisions and Tori was along for the ride while also providing guidance where we really needed it. I cannot recommend her enough!!
Tori was [our] absolute FAVORITE vendor we worked with during our entire wedding planning experience! She honestly deserves 10/5 stars...honestly Tori was phenomenal for so many more reasons than just her stellar photography. Her organization is impeccable, we always felt like she was 100% on top of everything we wanted and needed. She also was such a tremendous delight to work with. Everything we did together was so clear, simple, and pleasant, and Tori always knew exactly what we wanted or needed... Tori has an absolutely lovely personality, and everybody who interacted with her at the wedding said how wonderful she was.
Thank you for the most beautiful wedding photos. Thank you for the lunch dates and phone calls to answer all of my questions. Thank you for coordinating the timeline and working with us to make a wonderful elopement. I will cherish these photos forever.
You captured all of the romance and gorgeous scenic background. I cannot wait to see the album in print. I can't wait to show our children, and grandchildren.
I love you and am so thankful for you. CANNOT BELIEVE I GET A ROUND 2 with you!!
I am absolutely obsessed with our photos and could not have asked for a better experience. She made the whole process so easy from start to finish.
She knew exactly how to pose us, made us an incredibly detailed timeline, and made sure we got all of the pictures we wanted. Tori eased my anxiety throughout this entire process and I just know our day wouldn’t have gone as smoothly if it weren't for her.
Do not hesitate to book Tori for your photography needs!!! 1000000/10!
Once the wedding excitement has simmered down, you’re going to be left with a gallery of images on your computer to scroll through and, sadly, the memories may slowly start to fade year after year. Now that’s not to scare you, but as you begin your journey as a married couple, I hope you start to find the beauty in tangible memories, like printed photos on your walls and heirloom albums on your coffee table. You’ll share this book with your loved ones while you’re all curled up in a fuzzy blanket on the couch. You’ll one day be flipping through these pages while telling stories of the day you said, “I do.” This album isn’t just for you and your spouse to enjoy, although I hope you will keep it well-loved. This album is for the generations of family before and after you. You’ll share this album with them, and the love story that started it all. Your legacy. Whew, anyone else get the chills?! Yeah, same.
Your wedding album is a 10 x 10” custom-designed and fully archival book with high-quality images printed on thick pages that don’t bend. The pages open up to lay-flat panoramic spreads. It comes with 20 spreads (40 pages) to fully tell the story of your wedding day. The linen cover material comes in a variety of colors and styles. Most album designs include approximately 80-90 images, depending on each album’s unique design. The design process allows for a few rounds of revisions if necessary and full consideration for the images that mean the most to you. I have plenty more information about albums that I will send you once you receive your final gallery!
10X10" WEDDING ALBUM | $1,500
8X8” LOVE STORY BOOK | $500
8X8" PARENT ALBUM | $800
Prints and canvases are available in your online gallery shop
I do not offer traditional videography services. I’m a huge believer in handing off the job to an expert instead of trying to do everything myself! I know plenty of incredible vendors from all different parts of the industry who I would love to refer you to! Videographers, calligraphers, florists, hair stylists, makeup artists, decor, rentals, etc. You name it, I’m sure I can help find you some amazing vendors for your day!
You’ll receive sneak peeks from your wedding within 1 week, and your full gallery is typically delivered between 8 - 12 weeks. Delivery times vary depending on the season. I edit galleries as quickly as I can, while still giving each gallery the care, time, and attention it deserves. Your high-resolution, edited images will be delivered through an online gallery that can be shared with friends and family!
I don’t put a cap, limit, or set number on how many pictures you'll receive, because I believe you deserve all of the incredible photos from your day. You can expect a minimum of 100 images per hour of coverage (typically, many more)! Every wedding is unique and varies based on the events of each individual day! If I see an image that you will love, I won’t keep it from you – promise!
In hopes of alleviating one larger payment for you, the payment schedule is broken down into a few smaller payments throughout the process. One-third of the total cost will act as the retainer (along with your signed contract) in order to reserve your date. The next third will be due at the midway point, and the final payment will be due 1 month before the wedding day. I use an online system called HoneyBook where you will be able to sign the contract electronically and make payments via bank transfer or credit card (to get those honeymoon miles)!
A Content Creator is a member of my team who is documenting the behind-the-scenes of your day through raw iPhone footage! While it's not a replacement for traditional videography, it's a great alternative for couples who may only want video clips for social media. Your content library, delivered within 48 hours via Dropbox, feels like a guest's perspective of the day, which allows your friends and family to remain present and in the moment. My Content Creator and I will work together to capture your day seamlessly and fully.
Film is a nostalgic, charming, and unique medium that brings a raw aesthetic to your special moments. Being that film is unpredictable and imperfect, you can expect to receive a handful of moments caught on film. A typical roll of 35mm has 24 - 36 shots available, but that doesn't mean they will all be deliverable. I sort through the scans and deliver the best of the best. Film is available at $150/roll to cover the cost of high-quality film, developing, and scanning through my professional film lab. Most couples add 2-3 rolls of film.
No need to worry! I find that my creativity shines in new locations as they keep me curious and excited for all of the unique and unexpected ways we can capture your day! With years of experience, I adapt seamlessly to new settings, all lighting conditions, and alongside new people! We’ll chat through which parts of your venue are your favorites, so I know where to focus our time. For local venues, I’d be glad to join you for a venue if the timing works out, and I always research your venue and arrive extra early to scope out the property on the day of your wedding!
I don't believe in changing your appearance or removing anything that makes you who you are. I focus on directing you in a flattering way to ensure you feel amazing in front of my camera! I will lightly edit out temporary blemishes, like a bruise or acne, to the best of my ability. However, I do not offer full skin retouching as it would delay gallery delivery. When hiring me, you're acknowledging that you love my work, editing style, know what to expect, and trust me fully! I ask that you are fully aware of my style to avoid any surprises in your final gallery.
Ooh, I love this one! My goal is for you to feel comfortable, confident, and connected. I know being in front of a camera can feel awkward at first, so my approach to posing is full of natural prompts and guidance to keep you moving, laughing, and focusing on each other! I want your photos to show your real personalities! On your wedding day, I provide guidance when needed, but ideally, I can step back to observe and capture the real moments. I edit my images with warm, earthy, rich tones that complement nature and keep my couples looking golden and sun-kissed!
I do not release the RAW files of my images. Editing is half of the process and magic that goes into these pictures, and without it, the images are only halfway done. I want you to receive images that look and feel like my style. To ensure that I protect my art and brand, I only deliver images in the editing style that you hired me for. Also, RAW files are huge and not compatible with most standard computer programs – you may not be able to open them if you’re unfamiliar with the format. I deliver high-resolution JPEG images that are easy to view, download, and print!
I do not watermark my images, as I find they are distracting and unappealing. I’ve created these images for you, and I want you to be able to use them, print them, and share them freely!
As the photographer, I retain the copyright to all images taken on your wedding day and engagement session; however, as my couple, you have access to the full edited gallery and have the ability to download, share, and print the images for personal use!
Yes! I love black and white pictures so much! I edit a majority of the gallery in color, and then I select very special moments to make black and white to enhance the gallery! I do not provide a black and white image for every color image in the gallery.
Typically, I do not take shot lists aside from your family photos list! My couples trust me to capture their real relationship and wedding day to the best of my ability. Often, if we're trying to capture a list of shots, we're missing the real, candid moments happening right in front of us. Your gallery should represent your real day unfolding, not staged or fake moments found on Pinterest. However, if there's something you really love and want to share with me for inspiration, please feel free to send! I won't copy an exact image, but I love to see what inspires your vision.
I’ll guide you through planning locations, outfits, and props for your engagement session! Through helpful what-to-wear guides, prep tips, and outfit inspiration, you’ll have plenty of resources to dream up the perfect session. I always recommend choosing a location that holds significance to your relationship, like where you met, went on your first date, or somewhere you love to visit! It's extra special when you can make this session totally your own and unique to your love story.
Yes! I have liability insurance for up to one million dollars and can provide a COI to any venue or session location that requires it.
Absolutely! I have backups for my backups! My equipment is as important to me as it is to you, so I can provide you with images you will cherish for years to come! I have backups and replacements for all of my gear. I also work with a team of 3 (myself, my second photographer, and an assistant), so we are each other's backups if ever needed!
I will do absolutely everything in my power to be at your wedding regardless of circumstance, so unless I’m hospitalized or something tragic happens, I’ll be there! In the case that something completely out of my control happens, my team (second photographer and assistant) will step in to fulfill these roles. I will do my best to find a replacement photographer to take my place if needed. All editing and communication will still be completed by me, so your images reflect my signature style.
I will do everything I can to be as accommodating as possible in this case, as I know these are big investments. However, I depend on this income to make a living, which is why I have a nonrefundable retainer in place. If I am available for the rescheduled date, I will gladly reschedule and move your retainer fee to the new date. If you cancel or reschedule to a date I am unavailable, the retainer is nonrefundable, but I will refund any additional payments made toward your wedding.
Through my experience, 8 hours is the perfect base amount of time to tell the story of your wedding day from getting ready through the start of reception. Depending on details like the distance and travel time between locations, whether you're planning a first look or not, how big of a wedding party and family photo list you have, and any other logistical details, you may opt for more coverage. You can add additional hours of coverage at any point. Most of my couples land on 9 hours if they want more of their dance floor and reception captured!
YAY!! I am so glad to hear that! Let’s chat via email or a video call, so we can make sure that we are a perfect fit! Once you give me the word to move forward with the booking process, I will send over a proposal for you to sign and an invoice for the first retainer payment. I'll walk you through every step of the process to help make this experience as simple and fun as possible. I can't wait to be a part of your big day! xoxo
Seriously, take me anywhere and I’m yours!! Traveling is such a passion of mine, and being able to capture the sweetest couples in incredible locations makes my heart SO full. Please feel free to take me along with you on your world travels, and we will figure out the logistics based on the location!
I’m a huge believer in handing off the job to an expert instead of doing something myself sub-par. Video is not for this chica, no way! However, I know some INCREDIBLE vendors from all different parts of the industry who I would love to refer to you! Videographers, calligraphers, florists, hair stylists, makeup artists, decor, rentals, etc. You name it, I’m sure I can find you some super amazing vendors to spice up your sesh or wedding day if you need!!
I’m SO glad you asked – I love knowing that these special images are going to live somewhere other than in a folder on your computer! I am a huge fan of the tangible, printed form, so I do offer beautiful linen-covered albums. Once you receive your gallery and confirm that you would like an album, I choose a huge chunk of the gallery to send off to an album designer who will create a mock-up for you! You are able to proof and make revisions twice, and once it is perfect, we send it off to be printed! In a few weeks, you have a gorgeous heirloom to look back on for years to come!
Yes! I have liability insurance for up to one million dollars and can provide a COI to any venue or session location that requires it!
No, I require all payments to be completed before each session, but I am more than willing to work with you on a payment plan if necessary! I’ve already divided your full package into 2 equal payments to alleviate one larger payment. The first payment is due at the time of signing your contract to lock in your date on my calendar, the second payment will be due one month before your date!
Yes – backups for my backups! My equipment is as important to me as it is to you and your session, so I can provide you with images you will cherish for years to come! I have backups and replacements for all of my gear.
Through my experience, 8 hours is the perfect amount of time to tell the story of your wedding day from getting ready through the start of reception. Coverage will depend on details like the distance and travel time between locations, if you're planning a first look or not, how big of a wedding party and family photo list you have, and any other logistical details. You can add additional hours of coverage at any point. Most of my couples opt for 9 hours if they want more of their dance floor and reception captured!
I typically shoot on Tuesday and Thursday evenings about 2 hours before sunset for the best lighting. You can also choose sunrise – meeting 15 minutes before sunrise and shooting for the following 1.5 hours. I no longer offer sessions mid-day, since the lighting is not as flattering, and I have very limited weekend availability due to my wedding schedule.
YAY!! I am so glad to hear that! Let’s chat via email or a video chat, so we can make sure that we are a perfect fit! Once you give me the word to move forward with the booking process, I will send over a contract proposal for you to sign and an invoice for the first retainer payment!
