It's your love—wild and rare and unexpected and thrilling and mundane and complex all at the same time, and above all, entirely, completely, uniquely yours.
If this life is comprised of little moments of joy and authentic, purposeful interactions that sum up to an overarching story bigger than ourselves, your photographs should reflect that, too. Imagery that captures the beauty of these moments together, curated in a gallery of images you can feel—because photographs are one of the most precious, tangible gifts we have.
Documenting humanity is an honor, and telling your story through photographs that take you right back to those precious, fleeting moments is a joy. Your love, this life, and our humanity is an indescribably, wonderfully beautiful experience. Let me show you.
Destination Wedding & Elopement Photographer
based in Dallas, Texas + traveling worldwide.
its about how your love feels, wherever it takes you.
I'm a full-time wedding & elopement photographer and I've had the wonderful privilege of documenting love for over seven years now.
While I'm based in Dallas, Texas, most of my work takes me outside of the state! Traveling is truly what inspires me the most and gives me a fresh, creative perspective—especially on wedding days.
I firmly believe it's an incredible privilege and honor to be invited into witnessing and capturing some of the most meaningful days of people's lives. Photography is an honor I don't take lightly—I aim to create imagery that makes you feel exactly what that moment was like, to preserve these fleeting, precious days and capture the beauty of humanity through my lens.
Let's create together.

"Emily is AMAZING!!! If you are looking for a fun, sweet, incredibly talented photographer with timeless style, Emily is your gal! She did a boudoir session for me so I could surprise my hubby with a special anniversary gift, and everything was beyond perfect. I was nervous for such an intimate session, but Emily made me feel safe, confident, and GORGEOUS. She helped me pose throughout the entire session, paid special attention to details, and listened when I made my own suggestions. I got sneak peeks pack the same evening and they look a million times better than I could've ever imagined! You can tell Emily truly has a passion for her clients and the moments she captures for them. Emily is definitely my new go-to photographer!"

"From our first consultation with Emily, we felt so comfortable. We wanted Emily to shoot our destination wedding, and she encouraged us to do an engagement session first. We were not disappointed. She encouraged us to talk about why we loved each other and reminisce on our entire engagement and journey together, which I absolutely loved. She went above and beyond to give us the most beautiful pictures. "

"We are so glad we booked Emily to shoot images for our 30th anniversary party. It was a pretty casual event for 12 people, but so important to us to capture both portraits and the candid moments of the evening. Emily far exceeded our expectations and we absolutely love our images. AND, she is just delightful to work with—very professional, easygoing and fun. She really fit right in with out tight-knit group, and even my son-in-law, who doesn't like posing for pics, told me he was really happy I chose Emily as he was so comfortable with her shooting style and personality."

"I could not love her and her services more. Just book it. She is everything I could dream of and more. I used her for my engagement and wedding pictures, and she does a really great job of taking my vision and making it come to life. I love her work. Emily put me at ease and went with the flow. She was so detail-oriented about the timing of everything at the wedding. Book her before someone else does!"
