WEDDINGS
LET’S MAKE YOUR MEMORIES ETERNAL
WHAT MATTERS THE MOST TO ME
IS THAT YOU ARE HAPPY AND YOUR SPECIAL DAY LIVES FOREVER
This is the day you’ve been waiting for! So much goes into planning a wedding and I want to be by your side every step of the way.
From the moment you say "yes," your story begins to unfold in a thousand meaningful ways. I’m here to document more than just the wedding day—I’m here to capture the anticipation, the details, and the quiet moments that make your journey unique.
FROM THE BEGINNING…
From the walk down the aisle to the last dance under the stars, I’ll be by your side capturing every glance, every laugh, and every tear. My focus is on the real moments that tell the full story of your day—start to finish.
..UNTIL THE END..
..YOUR DAY MUST BE PERFECT
You’ve planned every detail with care, and your photography should reflect that same level of intention. My goal is to ensure your experience is seamless, your images are timeless, and your memories are preserved just as beautifully as you lived them.
Your wedding is one of the most meaningful days of your life, and choosing the right photographer is about more than just pretty pictures—it’s about trust, connection, and storytelling. I’m here to make sure your experience is effortless and your memories are captured with heart. When the day is over and the flowers have faded, you’ll have images that bring it all back—beautiful, honest, and uniquely yours.

My PortfolioI'm Denise! Your photographer..
As your photographer, I’m more than just someone with a camera—I’m your calm presence, your timeline keeper, your dress fluffer, and your biggest supporter. I approach every wedding day with care, blending a documentary style with gentle guidance to make sure you feel confident, comfortable, and fully present in every moment.
I believe the best photos come from real connection and trust. That’s why I take the time to truly get to know my couples, so your gallery reflects not just how your day looked, but how it felt. My goal is to create images that hold meaning for years to come—honest, emotional, and uniquely yours.
WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY..
“Denise did an INCREDIBLE job with our wedding photos. It’s hard to pick favorites because they are all amazing! She was so fun to work with and made the whole experience laidback and so much fun!”
“Denise was absolutely amazing to work with! She was so kind, especially regarding our COVID concerns. Denise gave us a good amount of instruction in posing and also let us bring our own ideas to the table! I am disabled and Denise was very thoughtful in taking rest breaks and seated photos. It helped ease a lot of the stress about all the activity on the wedding day! The photos turned out so gorgeous! I cannot recommend Denise enough!”
MY PROCESS

Start by reaching out with your wedding date and a few details about your day. We’ll schedule a relaxed coffee date or video call to get to know each other and chat about your vision, priorities, and how I can bring it all to life.
LET’S CONNECT
II
After our conversation, I’ll send you a personalized proposal with package options that fit your needs. Once you’ve made your decision, a signed contract and 30% retainer officially reserve your date on my calendar.

FAQs
Do you charge a travel fee?
If your session or wedding is more than one hour outside of Kansas City, a travel fee will apply. Just let me know your location and I’ll give you all the details—no surprises!
Do you retouch the photos?
I don’t do heavy retouching or body altering—every body is beautiful just as it is! That said, I’ll clean up little distractions like blemishes or stray bits of litter so the focus stays on you and your story.
Who picks the location?
We do that together! I want to hear what vibe you’re going for, and I’ll help you find the perfect spot. Whether it's a wild field, cozy city corner, or somewhere in between—we’ll make it work.
When will I get my photos?
Portrait sessions are delivered within 2–4 weeks, and weddings take about 6–8 weeks. But don’t worry—you’ll get a little sneak peek soon after the session to hold you over!
Do I get the RAW files?
Nope! I don’t deliver raw images. Part of the magic is in the editing—that’s where your story really comes to life. You’ll receive fully edited, high-resolution images that are ready to print, share, and love.
Do you have a studio?
I don’t have my own studio space, but if you’re dreaming of a clean, styled indoor session, we can easily rent a beautiful studio for an additional cost.
How many photos will I get?
You can expect about 50 images per hour of shooting. I focus on quality over quantity—every image you receive will be meaningful and beautifully edited.
How do you pose people?
I’m all about the in-between moments! Rather than stiff poses, I’ll give you natural prompts and little movements to bring out your personalities. We’ll keep things fun and relaxed so your images feel like you.
How long have you been doing this?
I’ve been a professional photographer for over 10 years, and yes—I actually went to school for it! This isn’t just my job, it’s my passion, and I bring all that experience into every session I shoot.
I want to know you...Tell me about your plans, dreams and beautiful love story!
