Experience

You know you want great images...


But what you may not realize is that you need a great experience with your photographer more than anything! That is exactly what I promise to give you. Over and over and over again, JRP Couples rave about their experience almost more than their images! Why? In order to get those natural, genuine portraits that truly capture who you are, you have to feel comfortable with the person taking them. How you feel while having your portraits taken heavily influences how you feel when you see yourself in the final images. I have worked with over 50 JRP Couples over the last 8 years and I can honestly say it is 100% possible to love how you look in your images if you feel comfortable while having them taken! Creating comfortable, joyful and genuine client experiences is what I specialize in and I am excited to share more about what the

JRP Experience includes!

Frequently asked questions

01. How do we book you for the wedding?

Booking is simple and exciting! Once you’ve decided we’re the perfect fit, I’ll send over a contract and invoice for the retainer fee to officially secure your date. Once those are completed, you’re all set! From there, we’ll start planning all the fun details, from your engagement session to your wedding day timeline. Let’s make magic happen!

 

02. Do you travel for destination weddings?

 

YES! I love traveling to capture love stories in breathtaking locations. Whether you're saying "I do" on a dreamy beach or in the heart of the mountains, I’m all in!  Let’s chat about your dream location and start planning an unforgettable photography experience!

 

03. How do you handle family photos on the wedding day?

 

I make family photos smooth, stress-free, and efficient so you can get back to celebrating! Before the big day, I’ll work with you to create a must-have shot list, ensuring we capture all the important groupings without any confusion. On the wedding day I will keep things fun, organized, and, quick while making sure every special moment is beautifully captured.

 

04. Do you offer engagement sessions?

 

Absolutely! Engagement sessions are one of my favorite ways to capture your love story. It’s the perfect chance to get comfortable in front of the camera, showcase your personalities, and create stunning images you can use for save-the-dates, guest books, or just because! Whether you envision a romantic outdoor adventure or a cozy, intimate setting, I’ll help bring your vision to life.

 

The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds.
