Dusty Blue Lake Wedding in Nampa, Idaho: Mark + Amy

March 25, 2019

I first met Amy long before she was planning a wedding. During my freshman year at NNU, one of her childhood best friends was one of my friends, so we crossed paths! Oddly enough, I have actually known Mark for much longer…ever since I was a shy 3 year old who refused to speak to […]

February 18, 2019

If you read Our Love Story Part 1, you may be wondering just where this story is going between David and I. We left off at the worst first date in history. When people ask me what our first date was, I am always unsure of what to say, because I’m not even sure that […]

David and I met a few years before our love story really began. We went to a small private christian high school and had always known of each other. There were only 300 people total in our whole high school so it was pretty easy to keep track of everyone. David is 2 years older […]

5 Reasons Why I Became a Wedding Photographer

February 4, 2019

Why wedding photography? This is a question that people ask me a lot. Why not do marketing, or work for a corporation with steady pay and benefits and actually use your business degree? Why not just photograph cute families? Why put yourself under that kind of pressure? Okay, if I’m being entirely honest, maybe some […]
