It’s a given—your love deserves to be documented with the same care and artistry as those timeless wedding photos you can’t stop scrolling through. This is your story, and it’s about more than just looking good; it’s about capturing the moments that feel alive with who you are as a couple. Whether it’s quiet glances that speak volumes or bursts of laughter that light up the room, your day should reflect everything that makes your love one-of-a-kind.

You might not have every detail planned yet, but one thing is certain—you’re not here for anything that feels ordinary or expected. This day is about creating something intimate, adventurous, and so unforgettable it feels like a scene from your favorite story.
As your photographer, I’m more than just the person behind the camera. I’m your guide, your location scout, creative director, problem solver, and a trusted hand when you need one. Whether it’s finding the perfect mountain overlook, making sure your dress flows just right, or sneaking in a moment to breathe it all in, I’m here to help you create a day that feels true to you.
My goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease, confident we’ve captured everything you imagined, and leave with a gallery of memories that look like art but feel like home.
Chat soon, I can't wait to hear all about your ideas and plans for the day.
HI! I'm Debbie
A creative soul with a love for romance
A celebration that honors your story and reflects what makes your love one of a kind.

Your day will be as unique as the journey that brought you here.
Authentic Self-Expression
A day designed with care and purpose, where every moment feels natural and true to you. From exchanging vows on a mountaintop that’s easy to access, to a candlelit ceremony in an art gallery, or sailing off the coast to toast on a boat—every part of your experience is planned to feel seamless, memorable, and entirely yours.

pricing does not include travel fees - travel fees are assessed according to location
This is a particularly good idea if:
- You have a large guest list and want to make sure we get shots of everyone that's there on the day
- You and your partner are getting ready at the same time, but the locations are seperate.
- You're wanting photos of the ceremony and reception styling, prior to the arrival of your guests
Basically, the second photographer will act as my wingman/ wingwoman, doubling the coverage of your wedding.
We'll team up to make sure that everything is captured, from start to finish, locations far apart. Lastly, having a second shooter will ensure photos are taken of the ceremony and reception styling, undisturbed by guests.
second photographer
The perfect solution to cover multiple locations or big weddings.
+$75 per hour for a second photographer
As much as I'd love to clone myself and be in two spots at once, it's a lot easier to get extra coverage if you choose to have a second shooter on the day.
Need a little extra time to capture your day in full? Add hours to your package for additional coverage on the day itself or for activities before or after. From adventures to meaningful moments, every part of your elopement experience can be beautifully documented.

frequently asked questions
For elopements I act as both a photographer and planner. Helping you through each stage of the planning process. For weddings, I assist in creating a photo timeline, shot list, and working with your vendors to help make your day go as smooth as possible.
Travel expenses are calculated once your venue has been selected. The travel expenses are non-refundable.
Based on your preference which we will discuss together, I can either be hands on - giving you a lot of guidance and direction, or hands off, allowing the day to unfold naturally, or a mix of both.
I typically require 8-12 weeks for proper editing as I edit these myself with the upmost care. I do offer sneak peeks that will give you a great snapshot of your day until the gallery is complete. You will receive it as an online gallery link through your email that you provide to me.
I describe my photography as a mix of fine art, editorial and documentary style photography. I don't cater to one because they each bring so much depth and authenticity to the day.
The images in your gallery will be edited to improve lighting, contrast, sharpness, and color — all of which is a standard process for digital photographers. With that, I do not provide the unedited RAW images for any reason.
07. Can We Split the Day Into Two Sessions?
A second photographer is an additional aspect that could be useful. Especially if the area/location is large, or if there are two getting ready locations, etc. So while you are getting portraits don by me, the second photographer will be busy in another part of the wedding capturing all the festivities.
Engagement sessions are complementary and are a part of your wedding package. We will work together to figure out the style and vibe you would like and possibly think a little outside of the traditional scene for some personal and epic photos
Yes I do. Outside of the wedding day itself, if you are planning a rehearsal dinner or want coverage of a party the night before, or perhaps a brunch style photo shoot with everyone, this can be included within the package. Just let me know so I can make sure to add that to your services.
Every wedding day is unique and comes with different timelines and unexpected moments. As a rule, I tend to provide between 35-50 images per hour at the very least. Sometimes it's more but never less. Keep in mind that it could be under if there are any hold ups, or any aspect is running late. This affects the amount of images that are provided.
Having Debbie as our photographer was such a great experience! She’s fun – a little sassy – and has such a creative eye. Throughout our time together, she was extremely accommodating and made us feel comfortable and relaxed the entire time. She goes above and beyond in all aspects and truly makes your day look and feel like a fairytale.
caroline + kyle
Debbie went above and beyond, scouting our location and offering a free engagement shoot before our wedding. She was organized, responsive, and arrived early to capture every moment with ease. From thoughtful direction to blending in seamlessly, she made everything effortless. As someone in the events industry, I can say Debbie is a gem!
olivia + peter
Debbie came all the way from Virginia to Acadia National Park in Maine to shoot our elopement and the photos are even more than we could've ever asked for! She was so professional and did an excellent job of helping us plan out the day to get the perfect shots. I felt so comfortable and beautiful throughout the entire experience, even though I don't typically enjoy getting my photo taken. Debbie went above and beyond, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and talented photographer.
