Colorful. Authentic. Full Of Life.

I created Rooted Trumpet Photography because I believe that everyone's story is worth telling. Each of our lives are uniquely different and beautiful, especially our love stories. Genuine emotions, true interactions, and all of the beautiful details that make up your story are what I love capturing.  

It brings me tremendous joy to walk alongside couples as they journey through new chapters of their lives together. To share experiences with them as laugh and cry and celebrate - to capture real couples who truly love each other - is such an honor.

Classic and Colorful. I like natural edits, with real-life colors so that 50 years from now, you'll look back at your photos and still find them to be timeless and true to your day. I'll capture your wedding day as it unfolds, mixing in natural, posed portraits with candid moments. 

To me, photography is about more than just taking a photo. It's about connection, meaning, creativity, and memories. Photography is about creating stories, capturing a piece of time that you can't ever get back, remembering and honoring something meaningful. It's time and feeling and emotion encapsulated in a frame that you can treasure for the rest of your life and pass down to your kids and then their kids. Photos are more than just something posted on social media; photos are a legacy.  

My goal is to capture those genuine moments of beauty and detail, laughter and tears, heartfelt emotion and joy.  Like the moment when a groom sees his bride for the first time on their wedding day, or the tears that are shed during a father-daughter dance,  or the laughter and love that overflow when the bride and groom say "I do," and are cheered by friends as they walk down the aisle. These are the moments that only happen once and are worth capturing - the moments I am passionate about capturing. These moments are priceless.
