Picture this: You’re scrolling through your phone five years frm now, and you come across those gorgeous wedding photos we took together. Your heart does that little flutter thing it always does when you see them, but then you keep scrolling… and there’s nothing. No photos of your first Christmas as a married couple, no sweet bump photos when you were expecting, no chaotic but beautiful family portraits with your toddler who refused to sit still.

Here’s the thing that gets me buzzing with excitement (pun definitely intended) every time I think about it: your wedding day isn’t the end of our story together—it’s just the beginning of documenting your beautiful, messy, perfectly imperfect life.

You’ve already found your photographer (that’s me!), so why start over?

I know what you’re thinking. “But isn’t wedding photography different from family and lifestyle photography?” And technically, yes—but hear me out. The photographer who captured the way your partner looked at you during your first dance? The one who noticed how your mom teared up during the father-daughter dance? That same photographer already knows your story, your family dynamics, and most importantly, what makes you you as a couple. And I’m someone you already know and feel comfortable with. Perhaps the BIGGEST WIN of all/

When I photograph a wedding, I’m not just documenting one day—I’m learning the way you interact, the way you express yourself, and how to make your personality come through in every frame. I’m figuring out that your husband always does this adorable eye-roll thing when he’s trying not to cry, or that you scrunch your nose when you’re really, truly happy. These little details don’t disappear after your wedding day.

The Sweet Moments That Come After “I Do”

Just a few of the incredible seasons of life I get to witness with my couples:

Your First Year of Marriage 

Those first few months as newlyweds are pure gold. Everything feels different, even if nothing has really changed. I love doing casual anniversary sessions where we can capture you in your actual element—cooking dinner together in your new home, snuggled up with your dog on a lazy Sunday morning, or laughing over coffee in your favorite local café.

Growing Your Family 

Whether it’s maternity photos where we’re celebrating that sweet bump, newborn sessions where I’m documenting those tiny fingers and that new-parent glow, or family portraits as your little ones grow—I’m here for all of it. There’s something incredibly special about having the same photographer document your journey from “just the two of us” to “look at this beautiful family we’ve created.”

Career Milestones and Life Changes 

Going back to school? Starting a business? Buying your dream home? These moments deserve to be documented too! I’ve photographed couples celebrating graduations, professional headshots for new ventures, and even “we finally saved up for that kitchen renovation” sessions. Your life is full of achievements that deserve to be remembered.

Anniversary Celebrations 

Here’s where it gets really fun. Imagine recreating elements of your wedding photos for your 5th, 10th, or 25th anniversary. We could go back to your original venue, wear your wedding dress again (because why not?!), or create something entirely new that represents who you’ve become together. These sessions are pure joy because we’re celebrating not just where you started, but how far you’ve come.

The Magic of Growing Together

What makes continuing our photographer-client relationship so special is the trust and comfort we’ve already built. Remember how nervous you might have felt during your engagement session, but by your wedding day, you were totally at ease with me? That comfort level means every future session starts from a place of “we’ve got this” rather than “I hope this doesn’t feel awkward.”

I already know that you’re not a big fan of super posed photos, or that your partner needs a minute to warm up to the camera. I know your good angles (spoiler alert: they’re all good angles), and I understand your family dynamics. When your sister-in-law inevitably shows up late to the family session, I’m not stressed—I’m just rolling with it because I already know that’s her thing.

Creating Your Family Legacy

Here’s what gets me really excited: the bigger picture. When we work together beyond your wedding day, we’re creating a visual legacy of your family. Imagine having a cohesive collection of professional photos that spans decades—all with the same artistic eye and style, all telling the continuous story of your love and growth.

Your future children won’t just see one gorgeous wedding album on the shelf. They’ll see family photos from every stage of their childhood, pictures of mom and dad still crazy in love at their 10th anniversary, and maybe even photos of them bringing their own partners home to meet the family. We’re not just taking pictures—we’re creating heirlooms.

The Practical Side of You…

I know what you’re thinking: “This sounds amazing, but is it practical?” Here’s the honey-sweet truth—it absolutely is! When you book me for your wedding, you’ll get discounted future sessions. You’re investing in someone who already knows your style preferences, your comfort level, and your family’s vibe.

Plus, think about the time you save not having to research photographers, look through portfolios, and do consultations every time you want professional photos. 

Growing With My Couple: Meet Elizabeth & Deven Fiandaca

Elizabeth and Deven first hired me for engagement photos and now I’ve photographed everything from their elopement and destination wedding to their maternity photos. They will have albums and albums of photos to look back on for years that document every chapter of their lives together. Look below for just some of the hundreds of photos we’ve taken together.

Your Story Continues…

Your wedding day was chapter one of your “happily ever after,” but there are so many more chapters to write and capture. Whether it’s the quiet everyday moments, the big celebrations, or everything in between, I want to be there with my camera, documenting the beautiful life you’re building together.

So here’s my promise to you: I’m not just your wedding photographer—I’m your family’s photographer, whether it’s just the two of you or you have fur babies (or real ones) that you want photographed too. I’m here for the milestone moments and the ordinary Tuesday afternoons that somehow feel magical when you’re with the right person. I’m here for the chaos and the calm, the planned celebrations and the spontaneous adventures.

Because your love story didn’t end when you walked back down the aisle as a married couple—it was just getting started. And honestly? I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Ready to keep the magic going? Let’s chat about capturing your next chapter together. Because trust me, the best is yet to come.
