YOUR experience
with me as your photographer
your day with no limits
Planning a wedding, elopement, or portrait session is the beginning of a meaningful journey, and choosing the right photographer to tell your story matters deeply. From our first inquiry to the moment you receive your final gallery, I’m devoted to creating an experience that feels seamless, intentional, and uniquely yours. I’ll guide you through each step along the way, from a thoughtfully crafted questionnaire that helps me understand your vision, to gentle guidance on the day itself so everything flows naturally. When your gallery is delivered, you’ll receive images that reflect the emotion, connection, and quiet magic of your story. With flexible payment options and a wholehearted commitment to care, my goal is to make your photography experience feel supportive, joyful, and entirely stress-free, so you can simply be present in the moments that matter most.
The Booking Journey:
Your story begins with your initial inquiry. This is where I get to learn more about you, your vision, and what you’re dreaming up, whether it’s a wedding, elopement, or portrait session. Share as much or as little as you’d like; this step is simply about connection.
If it feels aligned, we can continue the conversation with a discovery call or a cozy coffee chat. This is a relaxed space to talk through your ideas, ask questions, and see if we’re the right fit. No pressure, just a chance to dream together and make sure everything feels right.
When you’re ready, I’ll send over your proposal, contract, and retainer. Once everything is signed, your date is officially held — and we begin planning with intention. You’ll receive a thoughtful questionnaire and guidance tailored to your session, so everything feels clear and effortless moving forward.
I. The First Chapter — Reach Out
II. A Gentle Meeting — Discovery Call or Coffee Chat
III. Making It Official — Securing Your Date & Planning Ahead
My process
Once you’re officially booked, the real magic begins. Below are just a few of the ways I’ll thoughtfully craft an experience that feels uniquely and beautifully yours.
Once you reach out, we’ll begin by confirming availability and ensuring your vision feels aligned. When everything is set, I’ll send over a contract outlining your experience along with a retainer to officially hold your date, 50% for standard sessions, and a $500 retainer for weddings and elopements. Flexible payment plans are available, with the remaining balance due closer to your session or celebration, so you can focus on the magic ahead. From start to finish, I’m here to guide you, answer questions, and make the entire process feel effortless and supported.
As we prepare for your experience, I’ll send over a carefully crafted questionnaire designed to help me understand your vision and the flow of your day. From timelines and meaningful people to locations and quiet moments you want remembered, this step allows me to approach your story with intention. With these details in hand, I can document your day in a way that feels natural, personal, and true to the love you share.
On the day of your experience, whether a wedding, elopement, or portrait session, I’ll be there to quietly document your story as it unfolds. My approach is candid and unobtrusive, allowing you to stay fully present while I capture genuine emotion, connection, and the in-between moments that matter most. For celebrations with a timeline, I’ll work seamlessly alongside your planner or point of contact to ensure everything flows smoothly and no meaningful moment is missed. Throughout it all, my goal is to create a relaxed, comfortable space where you can simply be yourselves. In the end, you’ll receive a collection of timeless images that reflect your love, your energy, and the story you’re living together.
Once your experience has come to a close, I’ll begin thoughtfully curating and editing your images, shaping them into a final gallery that reflects the feeling and essence of your story. Standard sessions are delivered within two weeks, while weddings and elopements are delivered within 4–8 weeks. Your gallery will arrive as a beautifully presented, high-resolution collection, easy to download, share, and return to whenever you wish. Blending candid moments, intentional portraits, and meaningful details, your images will allow you to relive the story as it unfolded. These photographs are more than keepsakes; they’re a timeless reflection of your connection, crafted to be treasured for years to come.

Questions? I got you!
I base most of my work in Lake Tahoe, however, I currently reside 3 hours away from Tahoe in a small Nevada town called Winnemucca. I am SOO down to travel! You just say the word!
When crunching the numbers I include travel fees such as gas, accomations, and if needed, flights. I will do all the research myself so you don't have to stress and will give you a quote once finished! Payment plans are an option and I am flexible with working with your financial budget.
Absolutely!!! After your big day, I will begin the process of a sneak gallery 72 hours, after. In three days or sooner, you will have a sneak gallery of up to 100 images from your day!! Standard sessions do not have sneaks.
I do!!! For a small fee, I can add on a 1-minute video of your day, made via iPhone, and send it to you with your sneak peek gallery!

She truly does an amazing job at capturing all the little things
- Jacie & Chase
Carly did absolutely amazing! We had such a fun time taking our pictures with her and she was even willing to do a little bit of an adventure to a new location which required some off-roading! She truly does an amazing job at capturing all the little things. We can’t wait for our next session with her!
