Lifestyle Photography
We will get a great mix of candid + classic images while embracing movement and touch.
Engagement sessions are the best way for you and I to form a great relationship and feel comfortable with one another before your big day.
We'll learn all the best poses for you two, what makes you laugh and feel those butterflies so we are ready to rock on your wedding day!
Have a fun date night you want to recreate? Or a favorite brewery you love to visit?
Let's do it!
I love incorporating something fun for you to do to wrap up your session like: pop some champagne, bring your dog along, or head to the beach.

What should I wear??
I suggest wearing neutral or earth tones, they always look great on camera. For an engagement session, you can never go 'too fancy' (IMO).
So if dresses are your thing, by all means wear the dress you've had your eye on! If more casual is your thing, jeans and a cute top are perfect. I have a whole styling guide that goes over more wardrobe questions in depth once we book!
Where are you located?
I am based in Lisbon, IA. It's in-between Cedar Rapids and Iowa City. I have a list of my favorite locations, I love going to new places, so just ask about the location you have in mind and we can chat!
Do you shoot inside or outside?
I primarily shoot outdoors in natural light. I do not have a studio, but I do know of some gorgeous ones in Cedar Rapids/Iowa City area. OR we can do a fun activity like going to a brewery or coffee shop!
How many photos will we receive?
The edited images are unlimited, as in I don't set a specific number for engagement sessions. I want you to have as many as possible from our time together, but you can realistically expect at least 50.
Your edited images will be delivered in an online gallery link 1-2 weeks after your session.
Can we bring our dog?
Yes! The answer will always be yes!
Is my engagement session included if i book a wedding with you?
I offer a few wedding packages, but if yours doesn't include a complimentary session you can add it on! I believe it's the best way for us to feel comfortable and get to know each other more before your wedding day!
