& NATURAL IMAGERY
STORY-DRIVEN, REFINED
What matters most to me is how it felt. I photograph weddings with intention and care, creating space for real moments to unfold without interruption or pressure. I’m present, attentive, and anticipate the moment before it even happens—there to guide when needed, but always allowing your day to be exactly what it is.
From our first conversation through final delivery, the experience is meant to feel easy and seamless. Your images aren’t just documentation; they’re a lasting record of your story, preserved in a way that feels timeless, personal, and deeply true to you.

LET’S CREATE YOUR LEGACY; TOGETHER
My approach is to slow wedding days down so my couples can stay present, feel supported, and fully experience the people and moments that matter most. Through a refined documentary approach and a calm, intuitive presence, I capture weddings on film and digital with an emphasis on feeling, connection, and legacy—transforming once-in-a-lifetime celebrations into timeless imagery meant to be cherished for generations.
Wedding collections begin at $6500 in the Midwest, and $8500 for destinations. The average investment my couples make is around $8-10k in the Midwest or $10-12k for destinations.

The next steps
Clear communication is something I not only pride myself on, but want to make sure it’s one of the foundations of us working together. I want to set clear expectations because the experience you have while planning is incredibly important and will set the tone for the entire event.
After filling out my contact form above or on the “Contact” page, I will get back to you within 24-48 hours via email with offered times to connect on a discovery call where we can both get to know each other, to walk through potential timelines, and suggest a custom option of what would work best for your wedding day. I love getting to know my couples on this call, and it’s a great time to feel if we have the chemistry to work together. If we decide to move forward with booking, I send over a proposal for you to review and sign, and all I need from you is a signed contract and retainer fee paid to officially book your date. I take on a limited number of weddings a year to make sure the couples I do work with are my top priority.
Once we’ve booked and are moving forward with working together, then we can move into the planning stages where I send over helpful information like personalized vendor recommendations and styling assistance. 90 days out from your wedding day, I send over a timeline questionnaire so I can build the best photography timeline alongside your planner’s official timeline for your day. And once the final check in is sent a few weeks before the most special day of your life, we will be completely set and ready to go so you can be hands off and enjoy the entirety of your planning experience.
I will be documenting every special moment on your wedding day and once it’s finished, I will send a sneak peek preview gallery within a week, and your final gallery within 6-8 weeks of your wedding date. Documenting moments like your partner seeing you for the first time that day, friends and family’s emotions hearing your vows, and the pure joy you’re experiencing marrying the love of your life are truly what make my career so special to me- wedding days filled with feeling, connection, and legacy.
If this feels like the experience you want to have, then I would love to be your wedding photographer.
Based in Iowa, I photograph weddings with a focus on feeling over performance. My work is rooted in documentary storytelling—capturing quiet moments, natural connection, and meaningful details to create imagery that feels nostalgic, timeless, and true to how your day was lived.
Meet the Artist
Hi, I’m Grace. I’m a mother, a wife, a frequent flyer, and someone who believes weddings are meant to be felt, not performed. I photograph with the intention of preserving how the day truly felt—the quiet nerves, the full hearts, the in-between moments that often mean the most.
Born and raised in the Midwest and now calling it home, I’ve also lived in Arizona, California, and Hawaii, and I regularly return to those places to document wedding days. Wherever I am, my approach stays the same: grounded, refined, and deeply personal.
I photograph with a blend of digital and film, leaning on film for its ability to slow things down and bring a timeless, honest quality to wedding days. After over a decade and close to 300 weddings, what I value most are the relationships and connections I get to preserve I my work and personally in my life.
My work lives at the intersection of documentary and editorial, created for couples who trust me to see their day as it unfolds and to document it with care and intention.
I believe weddings deserve to be remembered like art. Through a refined documentary approach on film and digital, I capture not just the highlights, but the in-between moments, relationships, and emotions that tell the complete story of the day.
