it's me, HI!

"You will not meet a more positive or joyful photographer."

I want you to know that I'm a hard-working professional who puts an emphasis on providing her clients with luxurious images and a top-notch experience... but also that I'm a quirky goofball weirdo who appreciates a well-timed "that's what she said."   


There is nothing ordinary about it. Your love is EPIC in it's own right: It's beautiful, it's cinematic, it's vibrant, it's emotional. Your love belongs on the cover of a wedding magazine.  I can't wait to show you that. 

YOUR LOVE IS A WORK OF ART.

13 years ago, I picked up a camera because I had this idea that being a wedding photographer was my dream job. I love being able to say that it's still my dream job, some 300+ weddings later.  

When I’m not photographing epic weddings, I'm photographing (or dreaming of photographing) epic landscapes and the kind of wild beauty that makes your heart skip a beat—like breaching humpback whales in Maui.  My husband and I love to travel, adding Australia, New Zealand, and Japan to our recent adventures! 

I'm an animal lover and have 4 darling pets of my own.  If we are on a zoom call, you can almost guarantee that Catch Meowtside will be curled up on my lap for it, OR, pestering me for lunch (again).

I have a funny theory that being an energetic, artsy child who had The Little Mermaid on repeat can attribute to the core of who I am today: I loved to sing, dance, draw, act, and theatrically pose for Mom's camera all the while dreaming that, one day, I will sail off into the sunset with my very own Prince Eric. Cue regal waves goodbye.

As a hopeless romantic and a student of the arts, it is no wonder that I dove into the world of wedding photography and immediately felt at home. The joy I feel when photographing engagements, weddings, and all love stories alike fills my heart with happiness while satiating my need to create beautiful art.  

In the early years of my career, I studied women's portraiture and spent countless hours perfecting posing techniques to celebrate every body type: all uniquely perfect in shape and size. Carrying this mantra into the wedding world, my desire to deliver beautiful photographs is rooted in my personal mission: to make every couple who steps in front of my camera feel special and beautiful.

It is deeply important to me to provide a meaningful, personalized wedding photography experience that celebrates your unique beauty as couple while delivering elevated, timeless portraits and heartfelt candid moments. From the moment you inquire with me until our end-of-wedding, regal waves goodbye, I am excited to work with you and capture all of your fairy tale wedding moments.

One thing I love about Laura is how much she loves love and loves weddings. It shows in her spirit and in her work.

danielle + mike

Laura was a dream photographer. She really took the time to get to know us as people and made sure our pictures matched our personalities and what we had envisioned for our day.

chris + efrain

While love is not a tangible object, you can't tell that with Laura. She has a talent to capture it in the most magnificent way... Her pictures are a treasure as is she.

clara + james

She not only listened to our requests, but went above and beyond to put her personal artistic touch on every photo.
