Don't be a Poser

Jefferson City Wedding/Engagement Photographer


Okay, okay.. Sorry for being misleading in the title- BUT if you all know me, you'll know I'm all about the natural posing. I've had a few brides come to me lately and they're like "well we want a good mixture of both candid & posed photos." That's exactly what we do! We don't NOT pose people, I'd like to say it's more of a "guided storytelling" method. Basically, we will get you into a pose for the photograph and ask for some movement to get some authentic laughter and then we will snap several photos! The golden one will be in there. :) I always tell our couples that the photo that's THE ONE, is the photo you're taking in between the shots.


Doesn't make sense? Here's a few examples:

Our method of photography is about showcasing true emotion- how you feel when you're with your partner, capturing the real interactions between you and the best part of it is- it's less pressure! We know a lot of people hate being in front of the camera, and we try our best to make it a fun experience for you both! We want you to leave your session saying you had a great time!

Don't panic- we won't just let you into the wild saying "okay.. now just interact and we'll document your interactions together." We do give posing ideas, tips and set up the shots. It's all about documenting your true connection! If you're worried, please reach out to us and I'd be happy to tell you a little bit more about the process. If you're looking for a documentary style photographer-- I'm your gal! Can't wait to work with you!


With love,
