Kind Words
The feeling stays long after the moment has passed
Some moments stay with us forever. The sound of your dad laughing during a toast, the way your grandmother squeezes your hand, the quiet breath before you say “I do.” The kinds of moments that feel fleeting while they’re happening, but become the ones you hold closest years later.
Documenting the art of emotion
Your wedding is more than a celebration. It’s a gathering of people you love, a collection of fleeting gestures, emotions, and connections that deserve to be remembered honestly. My role is to document it all as it felt—not overly posed or performed, but real, intentional, and deeply human—so you can return to those moments for the rest of your life.
I’ve always been fascinated by the way photographs hold time. I see it in my own family photos—the way a single image can carry generations of love, history, and feeling.
That’s the kind of work I want to create for my couples: photographs that don’t just show you what happened, but bring you back to how it felt to be there.
Most days, I’m working right alongside my husband, Dan — second shooter, off-road Jeep driver, officiant, adventure buddy, and all-around amazing human. Together, we help you create an intentional, joy-filled wedding experience from start to finish.
We love to be home in CO or NE with our two sweet mini Aussie’s and helping couples craft intentional, meaningful wedding days from start to finish — Which is definitely part of our love language — guiding, celebrating, and documenting every moment along the way.

KIND WORDS
“I can’t say enough amazing things about Dawn (and Dan)! She absolutely crushed it with our wedding photos and made our entire day one to remember. She was always available to chat in the months leading up to our wedding and was a constant calming energy for me. She made the day so comfortable and fun. We had the best time laughing with her and Dan. And the PHOTOS!!! INCREDIBLE is an understatement. they are everything we hoped for and more and I’m so very thankful to have them as they captured the love and beauty of the day perfectly. Can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Dawn for making our wedding day the most magical day we could imagine!” Alexa & Jeff
“We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Dawn for our wedding day. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond — Neither of us had ever had professional photos taken before, but Dawn made us feel completely at ease. She gave clear, thoughtful direction that resulted in natural, effortless photos we absolutely love.
Beyond her talent behind the camera, she treated our families with genuine kindness and respect, which meant the world to us.
We’re so grateful we chose her!” T&C
