Montfair Resort Wedding

When a couple plans a wedding that 100% feels true to who they are >>>>>>

Becca and Tyler’s wedding at Montfair Resort Farm was just that! A celebration that was true to who they are.

I remember on the wedding day, someone asked “don’t you want a photo of this?” (It was a typical wedding detail kind of shot) and Becca said “no, I’m not going to frame that.” That was music to my ears because quite frankly I find a lot of what is standard in the wedding industry to be the complete opposite of what is preached on every website “authentic”.

As your photographer, I won’t have you reenact a heartfelt moment that just happened. I won’t waste precious time in your coverage trying to find the best place to hang a wedding dress. The dress/attire comes to life the moment it’s put on. Not on a hanger. I don’t travel with a whole case of ribbons and things to stage your details. Often times I find it’s more important for the planners to have that shot, which I’m happy to take, if it is already set up for me. I’m not going to impose on private, intimate moments. I can still photograph a first look or private vows while giving my couples space. I won’t play planner, coordinator or jump to the rescue in EVERY moment. What I will do is give you space to let moments naturally happen. Give your family space to step in and be there for you in times of need. I won’t sit in the aisle during your ceremony, instead, give your guests space and a view to enjoy during your ceremony. I will guide you through portrait time while also be intuitive and considerate about what YOU want and need. There’s nothing more uncomfortable than watching a couple on their wedding day be tired of taking photos and the photographer keeps going.

I may not be everyone’s jam, and that’s 100% okay. I wholeheartedly believe in creating work that brings my clients back to a moment, a feeling, a story. A collection of images that is a representation of who they were, at that very time.
