intentional & impactful photos that preserve your love story

the tkp wedding experience

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!

"Having tori as our wedding photographer was the best decision we made during our wedding process!"

 Tori was there to help us from start to finish. From our engagement photos, to our wedding day, and every little detail in between she made it all perfect! She works extremely hard and thinks of everything. No detail goes left unnoticed. Tori takes away all the stress and our family and friends had nothing but fantastic things to say about her. We not only have amazing pictures from our big day that will last a lifetime, but we also left with a trustworthy friend! We can't wait to us Tori again for future big moments in our lives! We can't rave enough about her!!!

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!

I can't even begin to say how amazing and talented Tori is. Seb and I have never had our photos taken, so I really didn't know how they would turn out... it’s incredible how perfectly Tori captured our love. I just can't thank her enough for being an amazing friend and even more for capturing this special chapter for us better than we thought could be possible.

Love you so much, and seriously thank you, thank you, thank you!!! You're incredible and we are sooo so happy!

"I didn't even get half way through the gallery and I literally started hysterically crying."

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!!

We are obsessed with how our photos came out, and the overall experience we had working with Tori was amazing. It was important for us to have somebody we were comfortable with so it didn’t feel staged and posed on our big day, and she really is the perfect person for that.

Our family and friends thought Tori was extremely sweet and kind, and she made everybody feel comfortable in front of the camera. She helped us plan out the day, it felt like at times she was a wedding planner! She is very responsive, genuinely excited for you and makes sure you're happy and having a good time!

you may be wondering...

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

Ooh, I love this one! My main goal is to always have my couples feeling comfortable, confident, and most importantly, having fun the entire shoot. I know being in front of a camera can feel awkward at first, but that is why I play games, get my couples moving, and keep you two laughing and in love always! Genuine over posed shots any day – I want these photos to show your real personality! I edit my images with warm, deep tones that compliment nature and skin tones and keep my couples looking golden and sunkissed!

WHERE IS THE FARTHEST YOU WILL TRAVEL?

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!

HOW WILL I KNOW IF WE ARE A GOOD FIT?

Such a good question!! I love meeting and chatting with every couple before booking, so we can go over all the important questions and details you will want to know to make sure we are a great fit! I am here to help you and guide you along the way!

HOW MANY IMAGES WILL WE RECEIVE?

As a minimum, for weddings, I deliver at least 500 digital images. For sessions, I deliver at least 60 digital images. I don’t put a set number on how many you will receive, because I believe you deserve ALL of the incredible photos from your day. I never leave anything good out, and I don’t put a cap or limit on what I will deliver! Every wedding is different and varies based on the events of each individual wedding day! If I see an image that you will love, I won’t keep it from you, promise!


WHAT IS THE TURNAROUND TIME?

For engagement or portrait sessions, you can expect a 3 to 4 week turnaround for the fully-edited, high-resolution online gallery. For weddings, my turnaround is usually 4 to 6 weeks for the fully-edited, high-resolution online gallery! Busy seasons may affect this timing slightly, but I do my best to return your galleries as soon as I can!

CAN I HAVE THE RAW FILES?

I don't release my RAW files for a few reasons! First, editing is half of the magic that goes into these images, and without it, the images are only halfway done. I want your images to 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 on any computer!

WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR FOR OUR PHOTOS?

I will send you plenty of information to prepare for your session, so don’t worry! I have blog posts, Pinterest boards, and style guides to help you look and feel amazing! The short answer – wear something that is comfortable and your style. If you are the type of people who would rather sit around in sweats all day and binge Netflix shows, then it probably wouldn’t make much sense for you to wear something super fancy. We will be in touch as we start planning your sesh, and I will help you choose your outfits based on the location and time of year we are shooting at!

DO YOU PROVIDE VIDEO SERVICES?

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 wedding 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 day!!

DO YOU OFFER ALBUMS?

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 design for you! You are able to 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!

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO BOOK YOU?

As soon as possible! Wedding dates get booked very far in advance, and it breaks my heart to have to turn someone away because I’m already booked! We can make things officially official once we have a signed contract and retainer in place, so if you definitely want me to be a part of your day, I would suggest reaching out as soon as you have your wedding date!
