I am a romantic to my core, and to me a wedding day is a small snippet into the love story of people's lives. Love stories are my driving force, and I tell love stories through cinematic imagery and a documentary, intentional approach.

Film Photography

Film is magic - and your day deserves magic. I offer an optional blend of digital and film photography, for couples who want to elevate their galleries with something old and something new. Film captures how the day felt, not simply how it looked.

"Ceara is absolutely amazing!!! She was so fun to work with and made my husband and I feel so comfortable during the whole photoshoot! Wedding photos are a big deal so we wanted the best, and she did the most amazing job - they are everything we were expecting and more. Couldn’t be happier with our decision to choose her!"

frequently asked questions . . .

 

How long does it take to receive the final photos?

Wedding galleries take up to 10 weeks to edit. If you need your photos returned sooner than that, I can expedite galleries for an additional fee.

 

 

are you lgbtq+ friendly?

Absolutely! I LOVE love, and that has no limitations. Whoever you are or wherever you are, I want to capture your day. Everyone is welcome and safe with me and my camera.

Do you give away raws?

I do not. My reason being is that when you book with me, you are booking my art - every step of that. I cannot fully demonstrate my art with what comes directly out of my camera.

do you travel?

Yes! I've traveled all over the US and I am passport ready as well. Please inquire for details or quotes.

 

 

 

can you change your style to accommodate me?

In short, no. Small changes are welcome (like cropping or retouching), but in terms of my color grading, lighting, etc. I do not change my style for any singular session. I want to ensure that the people who book with me book me for my art, my style, and for me as a person and creator - I don't really want to be booked for any other reason. If my style does not suit you, you may want to consider another photographer. I am not for everyone! ♡

 

 

What's required to book?

 

A signed contract and a nonrefundable deposit of 50% of your package total are required to lock in your date.

 

Are your packages customizable?

Absolutely! No couple or individual is the same, so no session is the same, either. My packages are just guidelines meant to inform you, not to confine you or limit you. Should you be looking for something a little different, I would be happy to sit down and provide a package better suited for your story!
