inquire with me

Every wedding is different because every couple is different. You don’t need a big production or a list of traditions that don’t fit. You just need a day that feels like you, and photos that bring you right back to it every time you see them.



Elopements and small weddings should feel personal, effortless, and true to you. I keep the process simple and stress-free so you can focus on celebrating with the people who matter most.



Testimonials

Herrington On The Bay, MD

Emma R.

“We did both an engagement shoot and wedding with Debbie. She met us beforehand to understand our vision, scouted venue spots early, and made us feel beautiful during every shot. The images came out better than we imagined, and she was sweet, professional, and on top of everything.”

Shenandoah Elopement

Caroline M.

“I wish I could give Debbie 100 stars! From timeline planning to a hiking portrait session, she went above and beyond. She helped us feel comfortable, even when we thought we were too awkward to shine. The photos came out perfect—she’s truly the best.”

Swan Harbor - Havre De Grace

Ashley S.

“If I could give Debbie more than five stars, I would! She was professional, creative, and her bubbly personality made us feel at ease during our shoot. We felt incredibly comfortable, and her photos exceeded our expectations—truly a joyful experience from start to finish.”

Manassas Battlefield, Virginia

Danielle A.

“She was amazing to work with—even with last-minute tweaks and day-of chaos. Debbie was always easy to reach and adjusted everything calmly. On top of that, she delivered beautiful images that we can’t wait to relive. Highly recommend her for weddings and elopements.”

Acadia National Park - Elopement

Estella S.

“Debbie traveled from Virginia to Acadia National Park for our elopement, and everything was seamless. She helped us plan the day, made us feel beautiful and at ease, and captured the landscape and us in a way we never expected. Truly professional and so caring.”

Shenandoah Family Elopement

Olivia H.

“We hired Debbie for our October 2024 wedding. She scoped our venue in advance, arrived early, and helped guide us during preparations. On the wedding day, she was attentive, kind—and the photos are exactly what we hoped for. We couldn't have asked for more.”
