the hopeless romantic

laura

I am a fine art photographer who is passionate about creating images that will last a lifetime! I've had a camera in hand as long as I can remember. Photography has always been my favorite way to capture a feeling, or fleeting moment in time. My work is inspired by light, love, and the personalities of my clients. I’m passionate about capturing natural and candid moments that are authentic, full of love, and emotion. The in-between moments are my favorite!! These are the type of images I believe you will cherish for a lifetime. My clients often tell me I have a calming presence and am just as chill as I am organized. I want my clients to feel like they are working with a good friend who is an expert in her field, has your back, is rooting for you, and artfully captures all your milestone memories with the utmost care!

the storyteller

Dominic

This guy has my heart, forever and always. He’s my other half in life and in business! He is our videographer, and we manage the business together.  Just like I feel we make a great pair in life, his videography pairs perfectly with my photography style! Dominic has a relaxed approach and loves to film wedding days in a candid and authentic way. You'll never notice he's filming, until you receive your highlight video and get to see all the special moments he's captured! Dominic has made me fall in love with capturing memories and life's precious moments in MOTION.

When Dominic isn’t filming with me you can find him working on BMWs, enjoying a good craft beer, or embarrassing me by dancing around the grocery store!

meet my other half

I’m a firm believer that if your dreams don’t scare you, they aren’t big enough! 

My passion for my work and living life to its fullest shows through in all that I do. I see beauty around us everyday, and I want it through my images.

boating

My happy place!! I grew up boating with my family and all my favorite memories involve being out on the water.

mid-century
modern furniture

If only I could live in West Elm…ahhhh!

cocktails

I love the fancy kind that I’m too lazy to make at home!

Crouton

I’m pretty fond of this little nugget. He’s my #1 office helper! AKA #1 lap dog. He doesn’t work much, but he keeps things silly and brightens everyone’s day!

travel

must haves: great places to explore + water (living in the midwest, we need as much water as we can get!)

house plants

My current life goal is to create an indoor garden in every room!

film

I was taught on film, and the love affair never faded. The dreamy aesthetic has me hooked!

Yoga

 I love everything about it! I like it HOT - aka Bikram! I'm also a certified yoga teacher and this practice keeps me feeling my best.
