Meet IVY

- ivy

I strive to be intentional in the planning process so I can serve you well on your wedding day or during your session. I want to empower you to feel beautiful and confident in front of the camera.

My mission is to love my clients well, capture them artistically and authentically, and bring glory to God in the process. Above all - I believe God gave me my business, and I want to use it to photograph His beautiful creations (you!).

It's not just about the pictures. 

In hindsight, I should've known as a kid that I would be a photographer someday. I've always been fascinated with storytelling in all its forms - from books, to movies, to scrapbooking. Even in our family home videos, you can almost always hear me asking for my turn with the camera.

The storyteller in me lives on today, but I'm not just telling my own stories anymore. And I don’t have to ask for a turn with the camera now. I'm honored that people invite me into their lives, allow me to share in their stories, and choose me to photograph their most special of days. I truly believe part of my purpose in life is capturing joy and helping other people re-live their favorite parts of their life stories over & over again, and I'm so thankful that's exactly what my job allows me to do.

- Annie + Christian

She was our biggest advocate and made sure we got EXACTLY what we wanted! She honestly feels like someone I’ve known forever and so was joyful and easy to work with! She created a calm and fun atmosphere for us all day and was our biggest cheerleader! Even almost a year later we look at our gallery and are transported back to those special moments that she was able to capture!"

"Ivy made our wedding one of the most joyful experiences!

So many sweet moments happen while you’re getting ready. (Ex: zipping up your dress & seeing yourself as a BRIDE!) I just love all the emotions during this part of the day!!

Something about your first dance as a couple and your dances with your parents just makes me teary-eyed. I love photographing it every time.

I’m passionate about creating beautiful imagery in a classic style that you’ll still love 50 years from now!

I want to tell your story through authentic imagery that becomes a priceless family heirloom you’ll pass down from generation to generation.

Timeless.

Moments are fleeting, but photos are forever, and I’m so thankful for that.

 I often find myself wishing there were more than that. I want to see more of the people who meant the most to them and celebrated their marriage alongside them. I want to know what their wedding ceremony looked like. See the details of my grandmother’s dress. The emotions of each special moment. And although I can’t go back in time & create those memories for my family, it’s one of my life’s honors to photograph those moments for you — and for your future grandchildren, too.

When my grandmother passed away, every photo and video I had of her became 10x more valuable to me. And it also made me 10x more intentional about photographing the people & moments that mean the most to you.

My grandparents only had two wallet-sized prints from their wedding (from what we can find).

I started my photography business almost by accident - I just enjoyed taking photos and people started asking me to do it for them. Possibly one of the happiest & most meaningful accidents ever. My hobby has become so much more than I ever dreamed. Over the years, I’ve realized how priceless images become - especially when it comes to having memories of once-in-a-lifetime moments with the people we love the most. 

THE HEART BEHIND WHAT I DO

because some moments are worth holding onto.
