Throughout this course, I will walk you through all things posing. How I prep my clients before shoots, what it’s like during the shoot, Philosophy behind evoking emotional images (and not the boring philospohy class you took in college) along with a ton of posing ques+prompts I give my couples! In This course I don’t hold back any secrets because secrets don’t make friends and I really wanna be your friend! I will share everything I know and exactly how i go about my sessions. BUT REMEMBER: There is no right way to do things, I just walk you through how I do things. We’ll cover how to educate your clients beforehand,

when to use certain posing prompts over others, How to evoke real/genuine/candid emotion, and so much more! This course is for all learning types. There is written info, posing breakdowns, image examples, AND a video portion where you get to come with me on a shoot and watch how I do my thing (also my English Bulldog makes an appearance and that’s something you really don’t want to miss). It is a self paced course so it is yours to watch/read as many times as you’d like and you’ll be able to access it whenever!

WHO’S IT FOR?
The course is created to provide knowledge and inspiration for all experience levels! Whether you just started your business and have no idea where to start, you dont have a business and just want to take better selfies with bae (just kidding), or you’ve been in the biz for years and are just looking for more inspiration to help you get out of that creative funk when it comes to directing your couples!

I’m Emily

I’ll be the first to say I never thought I’d be here doing this. But that’s what’s so beautiful about this wild and wonderful thing called life.

Growing up, my Dad said I was always the observant one. Staring out the window on road trips from one national park to the next, feeling deeply for those around me, and holding onto big emotions.

I set out to study astrophysics in school and my fondness for photography grew as an extracurricular, but it wasn’t until I shot my first wedding that I knew where my calling lay. It quickly became my medium. A canvas where I could observe, understand and hold those big whole-feeling moments. It complemented the person I have been all this time.

Although it was nearly a decade ago since that moment in time, I remember it so vividly today. This overwhelming feeling of love filled the space. The couple’s closest were in every direction; this beautiful example of commitment was palpable, and an indescribable, intoxicating energy filled every corner of the parent’s home, where everything took place.

When I think about family, life, and the beauty of love, I want to do nothing more than preserve it—to hold each moment tightly. To take these moments in time, keep them close, and share them with others for years to come. This is what I bring to every beautiful soul I work with. It’s a preservation of stories, feelings, and moments that can transport you back to that instance with the glance of an image.

When I’m not traveling here or there to document weddings, you can find me planning my next adventure with my husband, Jeff, snuggling up with our Mini Goldendoodle, Ezra, or empowering fellow photographers on their very own creative journeys, too.

I’m honored to welcome you into this season of life and to partner with you on sharing one beautiful piece of your love story. I welcome you to come as you are, to be wholeheartedly you.

Here for you, always,

What inspires me the most

Immersing myself in my favorite songs while driving on a long winding road evoking that nostalgic feeling.

Candid conversations with strangers or my closest around the dinner table.

The simplistic beauty in architecture, neutrals and bringing a space to life through design.

Continuous exploration of experiences and natural landscapes near and far.

The purpose behind it all

Legacy

My documentary-style imagery aims to evoke feelings and narratives just as you remember them.
Connection

My deep love for community and connection is ingrained in everything I do—from instilling a closeness with my clients upon our first meeting or befriending what may feel like every guest at the wedding.
Real

Documenting your raw, organic love is where the beauty lies in this whole experience. I won’t make you pose, prompt, or perfect, but serve as your guide, using conversation and movement to spark emotion—and documenting each moment as it naturally unfolds.
Vulnerability

I show up as my truest self and create a space and environment for you to do the same. When we work together, I welcome you to release all expectations and to simply be.
Empathy

You are valued and constantly cared for throughout this entire process. When we partner together, you can expect me to hold space for you for anything you need.

All the love

Jaclyn + Tyson

“Emily’s demeanor puts everyone at ease, she’s incredibly professional and seriously fun! Emily couldn’t have been more caring and easy to work with throughout the wedding process. We had an intimate wedding with just a few family members and Emily fit perfectly with the setting. Her style and creative eye is far above any other photographers I’ve experienced and our pictures turned out beautifully. Emily made the experience and memory of our wedding so special.”

Ashley + Mike

“Emily is INCREDIBLE – from the first phone call through delivery of photos, she is there for you not just as a photographer, but a friend. She became an integral part of our wedding without distracting or bothering, but rather adding the perfect layer of fun and calm, keeping everyone’s nerves at bay, helping making things perfect, and most importantly capturing the VERY ESSENCE of the wedding!! Her skills and photographs speak for themselves. She is truly an artist and we could not be happier that we went with Em!”

Grace + Brandon

“Emily is such an incredible, genuine and joy filled human and photographer. I knew from the moment I saw her work I had to hire her to take our photos. My husband and I have done two photo sessions with her and they are some of our favorite photos of us ever taken. She captures who you are as people with such ease and grace! We will forever cherish the moments she has documented of us for the rest of our days. No words can describe how much we love Emily and her beautiful soul!”

Jenessa + Andrew

“Emily is the absolute best! The second we met her, it was as if we had been friends for years. She has such a warm and caring heart and is a doll to be around. She is easy to work with and makes awkward poses and situations fun and natural. When it came to the actual wedding day, she was extremely organized and knew how to handle all the personalities coming at her. The sheer fact that she was able to wrangle our groomsmen in a timely manner blew our mind. Most importantly she captured all the real raw moments that you want and need from your wedding day. It went by so fast, so having those pictures is priceless. Emily caught everything in such a beautiful way and for that, and for her, we will always be grateful.”

Chelsea + Cody

“She doesn’t ask of you what she doesn’t give back, she is one of the most authentic and incredible people you will ever meet. My husband and I love to say that Emily is our family photographer but in reality she has become the sweetest friend. We first booked Emily when we wanted to celebrate our love and a battle won, since then (3 sessions later), we can’t imagine having anyone else photograph us! She is a photographer that not only takes incredible photos that bring us back to that place, but actually invests in people. I go back to the photos that she has taken of us more than our wedding photos because you don’t have to be anything other than yourself when you’re around her, as a matter of fact, she encourages you to be your most authentic selves during her sessions.”

Rachel + Ryan

“One swoop through her portfolio had me calling my fiance and saying, HER, she’s the one. Finding someone who will capture and make this a day we can tangibly relieve via photos is hard unless you were lucky enough to find Emily like we were. The phone call we had, the engagement session and ultimately the day of our wedding were the most positive echoes of our choice to have Emily shoot our dream day. She captured the most important day of my life with positivity, charm, wit and love. Not to mention seemingly limitless talent, and desire to add calm and joy to the day were not unnoticed. Everyone she interacts with can feel her positivity. My photos are perfect, my experience with her unrelieved, she’s a dream.”

Dana + Dustin

“Emily was everything and more than I could have ever wanted for a wedding photographer. After viewing her blog and Instagram I instantly was drawn to her vision and style. Once we spoke, her positive and passionate personality sealed the deal! She made my husband and I feel so comfortable at our engagement shoot and had us laughing the whole time. On the day of our wedding she was such a calming and caring force throughout the whole day. To look back at our wedding photos is to look back at all the raw, real, magical, and blissful moments of the day we became husband and wife. I will forever be thankful to emily for giving us the greatest wedding gift…the gift of reliving our beautiful day through her timeless art.”

Brittney + Jon

“I would choose Emily over and over again! Hiring Emily was one of the best decisions I made planning my wedding! She is so friendly, warm and makes you feel so comfortable in front of a camera. She was organized, quick and it honestly felt like I had one of my friends next to me snapping photos of my big day! When my photos arrived after the wedding, I was amazed by how beautifully she captured each moment. From the big moments of the first look, to the mini details of our table arrangement, she captured them all. If you are on the fence on who you want to use as your photographer, you will not regret hiring this woman! She is perfect!”

Ida + Peter

“On the day Emily made us so comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, allowing us to be natural and ourselves. Emily’s artistic approach to the wedding brought the entire weekend together. Taking photos with Peter and allowing that time to spend with him was one of my favorite memories from the day. There is nothing better than almost a year later now going through the images and always seeing something new, my favorite moments are always changing thanks to the variety of pictures on the day. Very highly recommended!!!”

Micah + Julie

“The most challenging part of our experience was having to choose a favorite photo from the shoot because we loved all of them! I’m completely blown away by the images Emily was able to capture of the two of us! She is truly blessed with an eye for capturing intimacy and authenticity. Not just that, but she had this ability to immediately and truly connect with Micah and I, making us feel comfortable, creating a fun, warm and exciting experience. I admit I was a little nervous that photographing our awkward selves would be a challenge for her, but she made it a cake-walk.I don’t know what I would have done without her!”
