Between vows in the desert, windswept first kisses, and barefoot dances under the stars—your day deserves to feel like you. That’s why I’ve crafted a photography experience that’s easy, intentional, and rooted in what really matters: your connection, your story, and the wildly beautiful moments in between. I’m not here to make your love look perfect. I’m here to show you how beautiful it already is.
For the kind of love that deserves it’s own country song
The Wild Rose Experience
You don’t need a reason to celebrate your love—but if you’ve got one (anniversary, engagement, just because you’re obsessed with each other), let’s make it magic. Photos that feel like your favorite love song: a little moody, a little playful, and totally you.
Couples Sessions
Small guest list, big feelings, and a wedding day that doesn’t feel like a performance. Think candlelit toasts, belly laughs, and maybe a shot of whiskey before the first dance.
Intimate Weddings
Just you two, an epic backdrop, and a whole lot of love. Whether we’re hiking to a mountaintop or posting up at a roadside chapel, this is about stripping it all down to what really matters—you and your person.
Elopements
Shoot me a message and I’ll hit you back with all the details: availability, pricing, and how we’ll make your session feel like you.
01. Say Hey
Once you’re ready to roll, I’ll send over a booking link and retainer invoice to make it official. Then you can kick back and get excited.
02. Lock It In
I’ll hook you up with a prep guide filled with location inspo, styling tips, and what to expect so you feel confident and fully yourself. I’ve got you!
03. Plan Like a Pro
Come as you are, love on your person, and leave the rest to me. I’ll give you gentle direction where it counts, but mainly I’ll let your connection lead the way.
04. Show up & soak it all in
Within three weeks, you’ll get a full gallery of hand-edited images that feel like a damn good love story. Share, print, cry happy tears. Repeat forever.

my Bucket List
Nothing makes me happier than packing up my gear, rolling the windows down, and chasing love stories wherever they unfold. Whether you’re dreaming of desert vows, mountaintop promises, or a city rooftop "I do," if the road calls—you bet I’ll answer.
If you see your dream location on my travel list, there are no travel fees for sessions while I’m there. If not? No worries. I’m always down to add a new pin to the map. Let’s make it happen.
Have love, will travel
Just show up, love hard, and I’ll handle the rest
Your hair might blow wild. Your dog might crash the ceremony. You might laugh-cry your way through the vows—and that’s exactly the kind of magic I’m here for. The best photos aren’t the posed ones. They’re the ones that feel like you.
This isn’t your mama’s wedding photography
Anywhere that tells your story. I shoot all over Arizona and beyond. Desert overlooks, downtown rooftops, motel parking lots, and anywhere with killer light and good energy.
Where do sessions take place?
Weddings and elopements usually book 4–6 months out, sometimes sooner for peak dates. For couples sessions, a month or two ahead is golden.
How far in advance should we book?
You’re not alone, and you’re not actually awkward, I promise. I’ll guide you through everything and keep the vibe relaxed, fun, and easy. We’ll laugh, move around, and forget the camera’s even there.
We’re awkward in front of the camera— help?
Oh absolutely. Once you’re booked, I’ll send over a full guide with outfit tips and location ideas. Want to send me options? I’ll be your honorary stylist.
Can you help with outfits and locations?
Yes! I’ll hop in my car or on a plane if your love story’s taking me somewhere new. Travel fees vary based on the location, just reach out and we’ll chat.
Do you travel?
Heck yes. Your photos deserve more than a folder on your desktop. I offer heirloom albums, fine art prints, and custom wall pieces to turn your images into keepsakes.
Do you offer albums and prints?
