Real Wedding Moments | Southwest Missouri Photography
I love capturing wedding days with a blend of hands-off documentation and helpful direction when you need it. These images showcase real couples celebrating in their own unique ways throughout Southwest Missouri. You’ll see candid moments where couples are simply being themselves, as well as portraits where they look their absolute best. Every wedding has its own personality—I'd love to help tell your story.
A Calm, Candid, and Intentional Experience
From the moment you book, my goal is to make this entire experience feel effortless. Whether you’re planning a big celebration at a chapel, an intimate backyard ceremony, or something totally unique to you, I’ll guide you through each step of the process. We’ll start by creating a personalized wedding day timeline that reflects your priorities—so you can relax and be fully present while I take care of documenting the moments that matter most.
On the wedding day, I balance being a calming presence with being efficient and organized. I’ll offer direction when it’s helpful—like during portraits or family formals—so you’re never left wondering what to do with your hands, but I’ll also step back and let real moments unfold naturally. From the quiet getting-ready moments to golden hour portraits and packed dance floors, I’m there for all of it.
Over the years, I’ve photographed weddings throughout the Springfield and Branson area—from rustic barns and elegant venues to private estates and lakeside locations. No matter the setting or guest count, I believe every wedding deserves to be beautifully and thoughtfully documented.
When you look back on your gallery, I want the photos to feel like you—joyful, genuine, and full of life. And I’d be truly honored to be the one who captures it all.
