You don't want just another vendor at your wedding; you want a timeless, heavenly presence who captures the small moments you've dreamed of forever. As a Tennessee-based destination wedding + elopement photographer, a friend, and a fellow human being, my goal is to provide you with a warm and welcoming experience that brings out the best in you. Right at the get-go, I fully put myself out there to build a trustworthy relationship with you, just as you're doing with me.
Creating an all-inclusive, welcoming experience. With purpose, on purpose. and most importantly, for you.
Capturing your dream destination with the
one you dearly love most
With 3 years of experience in this industry, my mission is to be a calming presence, so you can be FULLY present on one of the fastest, most memorable days of your life. When I become your photographer, I also become your hype woman, lending hand, fellow traveler, gift giver, and most importantly, a dear friend by the end of it. Just like your timeless photos, our relationship is one you can always rely on.
Your calming presence
ON YOUR WEDDING DAY
be completely present
in your timeless moments
01
Pre-arrival routine: I grab my strawberry acai, triple check my batteries, pack my equipment, and have a pre-wedding jam sesh in the car (or plane) as I head to YOUR DAY!!!
02
I'll arrive 20 minutes prior to my coverage start time to park, meet the other vendors, set up my equipment, and check-in with YOU. Usually, I'll start with your detail shots (dress, getting ready, etc.) then let's POP THE CHAMPAGNE!
03
From every hug shared to the dreamy encounters lasting seconds, I'll be there to ensure they land in your wedding book. Throughout the day, I'll be a calming presence that prompts everyone to remain on time and be present in these moments. By the end of the day, my camera will hold authentic, warm, and dreamy photos, with day-of polaroids in your hands.
04
Manifest this: You're on your way to your honeymoon, your phone dings, and sneak peaks from your intimate day have ARRIVED. You're looking through them with emotion in your eyes, rewinding to the previous day and the INCREDIBLE time you had with your people. 3-4 weeks later, you're scrolling through your final gallery, picking out favorites for your customized photo album and prints in your home.
Abbye + Wesley
I don't have enough words to describe our experience with Natalie. She was truly so helpful throughout the whole process. Ample communication, a meeting early to get to know each other, and the best photo hype woman you could ever ask for. She creates real art and has amazing talent when it comes to both personality and the genuine joy she exudes. She gets the photos edited to perfection and back to you so quickly. I now feel like I have a friend in Natalie!
TAYLOR + WILL
Natalie did an incredible job with our engagement shoot. She made us feel so comfortable, and we had so much fun with her. I was worried about not knowing what to do for poses/feeling awkward, but she gave us great direction and adjusted us to make sure the pictures turned out beautifully. She did such a great job, my fiancé and I have been raving about her since. 10/10 recommend.
DANA + KYLE
We absolutely LOVED working with Natalie!! She made our experience super painless and fun :) All of the photos felt so natural and truly captured our personalities. She was totally down for our crazy ideas and everything turned out even better than we could have ever expected!

2. Two options: We can set up a discovery call to get to know one another or if you're READYYY, book your wedding day by signing the contract and paying a non-refundable deposit.

4. Before the wedding, I'll send you two longer questionnaires for you and your partner to fill out about your day! Turn it into a date night, order some take-out, and fill these out.
“We just relived our whole wedding day and it was the SWEETEST. It's amazing how a picture can take you back to the moment and that's exactly what you did!! Thank you SO much for giving us this lifelong gift. You are the BEST!!!”
cAITLIN & rODNEY
let's do the dang thing
Warm, dreamy, and authentic, with creamy skin tones.
Candid moments (like this background photo ;) haha) of you, your partner, your people, and your day you wouldn't think could be captured. Those are the images that will land in your gallery.
If this is your vision, let's be friends!
How would you describe your style?
for my wedding packages (local + destination), yes! Since they are going to be 8-10 hour days, I include it in your package so that all angles of your day are captured.
However, I do not include them in elopement packages since these are more intimate. however, please mention to me if you'd like one and we can make it work!
Is a 2nd shooter included in your packages?
Heck yes! I've traveled to 7 different countries in Europe, the Caribbean, and will be traveling to Utah, Florida, and Hawaii this year + the Dominican Republic next year.
I have plenty of places left on my passport, and would love to make your dream destination a part of it.
If your vision includes a international destination, let's chat.
Do you travel across the United States? Internationally?
For my wedding packages, travel costs are included in my packages! That way, you don't have to stress about booking extra flights, accommodations, etc.
for sessions, i charge depending on how many miles outside of nashville you are! if our session takes place 30 miles outside of nashville, I charge an additional $50.
How much do you charge for travel?
Absolutely! Since every couple is different, I am happy to create a package that fits your photography checklist + budget for your big day. read more about customized wedding packages on this page under "Photography packages."
Can I customize my wedding package?
I deliver all my photos through an online gallery called pic-time. You can share these galleries with family + friends, and all photos can be downloaded directly from the gallery.
How will I receive my photos?
I will deliver your photos as soon as i can! to ensure your gallery is completed in the highest-quality work possible, I give myself 4-6 weeks for weddings and 2-3 for portrait sessions. however, it can be sooner so check your email!
I deliver sneak peaks within 24-48 hours so you have some to hold onto until then.
How long until my gallery is delivered?
yes! once you've booked with me, you'll receive the ultimate wedding planning that provides tips, tricks, and allll the fun things. once we nail down a date for your engagement session, i'll send over a "preparing for your session" guide that includes location and outfit recommendations.
Do you offer planning, location, and outfit guidance?
YES YES YES! First, they are included in your wedding package so why not take advantage of it! second, it really helps build our relationship as you're able to get comfortable in front of the camera and we get to know one another. you'll get a handful of dreamy photos, as well as have an incredible time celebrating your heavenly love!
Should I do an engagement session?
There is no such thing as awkward when we're shooting together! During our session, I will direct you with fun, calming, candid poses that you'll forget you're in the middle of a photoshoot! If this is something you're looking for in your experience, please reach out because I promise you're worthy of having your dreamy moments captured.
I have trouble being in front of the camera and feeling awkward. Can I still do a session?
YES! I offer a film add-on package for not only weddings, but elopements + sessions! My film add-on package is $250! More information is located under the investment page.
Do you offer film for weddings?
Documenting your heavenly love through timeless, warm adventures.
let's go ALL-IN ON YOUR DREAM
