wedding & elopement photographer
This is your day. Your people. Your moments. And when it’s all said and done, I want you to have more than just memories. Photos are your connection to those moments and your legacy to share. They’re a tangible way to hold onto the feelings you cherish most.
Here, it's not about chasing perfection or trends. It’s a commitment to noticing and preserving those irreplaceable moments – whether they are grand or beautifully small – that make you feel alive. The way you want to be seen. The way you act when you feel at home in yourself or your person. Join me in capturing the essence of your love, and preserve the laughter, tears, and unscripted beauty that make it uniquely yours.

WHAT INSPIRES ME:
Over the last five years of shooting weddings and couples, I’ve learned it’s not just the planned or expected moments that matter. As a documentary photographer, I believe the chaotic moments are cherished just as much, if not more, than the perfect ones because that's real life and my mission is to be part of the story and the beauty of a wedding day.
I have always loved having a camera in my hands and I bring that love with me to every wedding, elopement, and other shoots. There’s something about finding ways to play with light and use it to describe the mood or the moment or the emotions you're feeling when words aren’t enough.
What fuels my passion for photography is the joy, the fun, and the profound sense of intimacy that comes with connecting and working alongside fellow human beings. I can't wait to get to know you and be a part of your special moments!

MEET YOUR photographer
Chanel + Brandon
"My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Aaren for our engagement shoot and there are no words to describe how magical the whole experience was. Aaren was welcoming, easy-going and fun, all the while giving us direction that helped create the most INSANE and CREATIVE photos. What a blessing it is to have these photos, the memories, and her expertise. These photos are the best gift we could have ever asked for and we had fun doing it!"

"It was so important to us to choose the right photographer to capture this extremely special day that we had waited and dreamt of for so long. We had such confidence that you would be just that and you not only met our expectations but went above and beyond! From the first day meeting to now, working with you had been such an easy process. I can see how much you love you have for your clients and truly put your heart into your work and that is shown not only through your photos but also the care, love, and genuine excitement you showed us on our wedding day. We thank you truly so so much for everything and giving us a gift we will cherish the rest of our lives and one you can't put a price on! "
"you truly put your heart into your work"
Kylie + Felix
"Thank you so much Aaren! We couldn't imagine a better representation of the day and I cried watching the video. You did such an amazing job and really captured everything so well. We are so happy we get to relive the day again and have looked through them over and over. You did such a good job capturing everything that was going on that day! Which doesn't seem like it was easy. It's so fun to see all the parts I didn't get to see or was too overwhelmed to notice. Thank you again!!"
"You did such a good job capturing everything"
