NOSTALGIA
FOR THE
LOVE OF
A once in a lifetime
EXPERIENCE
Your wedding day is a treasure in this lifetime. It's one of the most real things you will ever experience. The joy, the connection, and the bittersweet...it's your reality. The months before build the excitement and the day itself seems to fly by like a dream. Authentic photos can immortalize it all. Years down the road, when you're flipping through your photo albums, you'll relive every moment, as it was, again and again. Let's go on that journey together.
"I knew from the moment I saw her work that she was the photographer I wanted to capture such a special day in my life. Her presence is grounding and kind. She has a really special way of providing the space for you to just, be yourself... and that's a gift."

notes
from
my couples
"Our wedding photos exceeded all of our expectations. They’re absolutely stunning, and Shawna went above and beyond what we asked for. She listened to what we wanted, looked over our Pinterest inspo, and was fully on board from our ideas from day one. We felt comfortable with her from the start, and she immediately put us at ease when she arrived (even while my wife and I were freaking out a bit). I quite literally could not recommend her more!!! I’m going to be obsessively looking at these photos for years to come"
Elsi + Karli
"I really can't express enough in words how amazing Shawna is. Throughout our engagement, Shawna had become our biggest supporter, and a friend to us. We had a very difficult engagement due to family not being cooperative. We changed our date and location multiple times before ultimately deciding on getting eloped, and Shawna remained flexible, supportive, and stress-free throughout everything. She was our breath of fresh air. I can not recommend her enough."
Ashley + Tyler
"Her demeanor and personality are so calming, during one of the craziest days of my life I felt like I not only had an artist and someone to document the beauty around me, but a friend and calming presence. The results were phenomenal. She managed to capture so much reality in the day, when I look back at photos I feel like I am reliving it ever time. Her vintage and dreamy style is exactly what I wanted, and I felt like such a princess. I can’t thank Shawna enough for capturing my perfect day!!!"

Your time together is sacred and viewed as such, so I will not design a timeline just for photo opportunities. Instead, this is guidance to building your day with presentness and adventure at the forefront.
Whether you enjoy creating vision boards or talking it all out, communication is the foundation to our relationship in creating together. I'll meet with you at least twice before your wedding day to talk more about your dreams and visions and to build a connection together through it all.
I believe that you do not need my interference during the experiences of your day. I approach each wedding in an effort to observe you intentionally, and photograph you naturally. If you desire a collection of poetic portraits, we can run away at sunset together. Otherwise, I'll flow through the day as it happens naturally. The best moments are unscripted.
All weddings and elopements are thoughtfully documented on a hybrid approach of digital and film. The nostalgia of film is unmatched for the details and slow happenings of the day, while digital enlivens low light scenes and faster paced moments. Together, you receive a variety of carefully curated images that tell your story, exactly as it happened.
- 6-10 hours documentary, "you-focused" photography so you can have everything from getting ready portraits to reception covered - not a moment missed
- Engagement Sessions for us to connect prior to your day
- Timeline coordination & virtual prep meetings so we can dream up the perfect day, together
- All of your images in a private, online gallery so you can easily share with friends and family. Plus, you own full resolution images forever giving you the archival quality version of your memories for the rest of your life.
Optional Add On’s such as: Super 8, 35mm + 120mm film, second photographers, heirloom photo albums, and more!
