Being more than just your wedding photographer


Wedding planning... sounds simple but ends up being more stressful than anticipated. Well hello, I'm Laken here to yes be your photographer, but also a friend through the wedding planning process. I'm here to answer questions, here to help plan the flow of your day, and here create the wedding photos of your dreams. I don't just show up to your wedding and take photos, we work together to find the perfect balance of candid moments and beautiful portraits three months before you say "I DO!" We work together to bring the life into those little moments like, first look, private vowels, and even those fun creative photos of the Bride before slipping into her dress. But don't worry, we don't plan everything... I love the natural flow of a wedding morning, and dancing the night away with your now hubby.

The girls getting ready in your robes, all your best friends there laughing with you while jamming to all the best throw backs.

The guys hanging out, paying pool, listening to lord only knows what kind of music, and most likely enjoying a cold beer.

The wedding day is where I guide you on all those special moments we created beforehand, but letting you just simply enjoy one of the best days of your life. A girl with a camera, but also a girls girl that truly wants to be there for you on a day its nice to have that extra someone, making sure you eat and drink water.
