Messages that warm my heart
to all my couples - thank you for letting me a part of your story
I promise to serve you with more than just my lens. To show up with empathy, encouragement, and intention. To preserve moments with reverence and joy. And to treat your story like it’s part of my own—because it is.
MY VOW TO YOU
HOW I SHOW UP
01. The Beginning
Every story starts with a simple hello. Once you reach out, we’ll set up a time to talk and truly connect. I want to hear about you, your values, and your vision for the day. We’ll explore whether we’re the right fit, and if it feels aligned, I’ll send over a custom proposal to make it official. From there, your legacy begins to take shape.
02. Preparing the Ground
In the weeks leading up to your session, we’ll stay connected. You’ll receive a personalized welcome guide filled with everything you need to feel prepared—location ideas, wardrobe inspiration, and prompts to help us uncover the details that matter most to you. Together, we’ll craft a thoughtful plan that reflects your story, so when the day arrives, all that’s left for you to do is relax, feel present, and trust that every moment is being captured with care.

03. The session Day
This is the heart of what I do, the day we create something meaningful together. Whether we’re celebrating your engagement, marking an anniversary, or simply capturing the beauty of your love in this season, every session is guided by intention. I’ll arrive with a clear plan and an open heart, allowing your connection to unfold naturally. During the session, I’ll gently guide you while also holding space for the candid, unscripted moments that make your love uniquely yours. You don’t need to worry about how to pose or what to do. I’ll take care of the details so you can simply be present with each other.
04. A Legacy to Hold
Within just a few days, you’ll receive a sneak peek of your session in your inbox. Your full gallery will follow in 2–3 weeks. Your story deserves to live on beyond the screen and I'm here to help you on that journey. We'll work together on creating timeless albums and heirloom prints that will turn your images into meaningful keepsakes you’ll treasure forever. Our connection doesn’t end here. It’s my honor to be part of your story, and I hope to continue capturing your life’s beautiful seasons for years to come. This is just a beginning!
Monica was not only a master behind the camera but also a true professional. She arrived on time, was very friendly and made our photography session fun and stress free. This allowed us to feel at ease throughout our very important wedding day. She is a true artist and captures the beauty in everything. I am so pleased with our album and look forward to future photo sessions.
No need to look any further!

Monica's talent speaks for itself. She has photographed my wife and I on several occasions, including styled shoots, graduation shoots, and even the recreation of wedding photos. She captures every special moment and brings out our best smiles every time. I can assure you that you will be framing many of the pictures she will take for you.

How do we book you?
For engagement sessions, 2-3 weeks. For weddings, 8-10 weeks . Along with sneak peeks during the first week! I will deliver your professionally edited images in an online gallery where you will have access to download in high-resolution. The gallery will also have a print store, where you can order various sizes.
When and how will I receive my photos?
On your wedding day, I’ll gently guide you into timeless, elegant poses, while also staying present for the genuine, joyful, and authentic moments in between. Because your gallery should reflect not just how it looked, but how it felt.
Do you give posing directions?
Absolutely! We do edit our images, but never to the point where you look overly retouched or unnatural. Our focus is on preserving your unique essence and staying true to the genuine, emotive style we’re known for, even if that means embracing a few perfectly imperfect details. Light skin smoothing and blemish removal are included, and we’re always happy to accommodate any specific editing requests you may have.
Do you retouch your images?
This varies based on the scope of the wedding, such as the number of hours booked. Number of images can range from 500-900 photos.
How many images will I receive?
All wedding collections include one lead photographer (that’s me!), with the option to add a second photographer for an additional fee. While one photographer is often sufficient, having a second can enhance your coverage—allowing us to capture multiple angles, genuine reactions, and fleeting moments happening simultaneously. It’s a beautiful way to ensure nothing is missed, especially during big moments like the ceremony or first look. An assistant may also be included if needed to support the flow of the day.
How many people on your team will be attending my wedding?
To give your day the care and creativity it deserves, we recommend booking 8–12 months in advance. My calendar fills quickly, and reserving your date early ensures we can fully dedicate ourselves to capturing your love story with intention, artistry, and a personalized touch that reflects your unique connection.
How soon should we book you?
You’ll receive full personal usage rights to your images—meaning you can print, share, and enjoy them as you wish for personal use. The copyright remains with the photographer, allowing me to showcase select images in my portfolio or promotional materials. That said, your privacy is always a priority, and we’ll never share anything sensitive without your permission.
