Your wedding day however you’ve envisioned it
—is so much more than just a ceremony and a few portraits. It’s the whole experience—the emotions, the in-between moments, the energy, and the story that unfolds naturally.
I’m so excited we’ve made it to this stage!
I want to be a calm, confident presence —An instinctive and trusted guide who makes posing feel natural and full of emotion, and who won’t miss any of the candid moments. Having couples trust me to tell their story means everything. So let’s dive in and see if we’re the perfect fit!
My goal
is to capture a couple’s story with artistry, sincerity, and joy, and to offer couples a standout experience with every detail meticulously considered.
So when I became a wedding photographer, I saw it differently. It was never just about taking pretty pictures of a couple in love. It was about learning who matters most to you—the people you want to remember for a lifetime. The ones whose faces and stories you’ll tell your children, your grandchildren, and generations beyond.
We don’t have unlimited moments. Every laugh, every tear, every touch is something worth holding onto. Life is fleeting, but photographs? They last forever. And each time I click the shutter, I’m creating something your loved ones can hold close long after the moment has passed.
There are no words for how special that is.

What Working Together Looks Like
Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, but that’s where I come in, from day one! This isn’t about checking off a shot list or rushing through a timeline. It’s about living in the moment. Her’s what the experience looks like from start to finish.
Custom Timeline Creation: About a month before your wedding, we’ll build a personalized Day-Of Timeline together. We’ll make sure everything flows beautifully and leaves plenty of time for spontaneous, unforgettable moments.
Personal Online Gallery + Exclusive Print Access: Your final photos will be delivered in a beautiful online gallery, ready to download in high-res (print-ready) and mobile-friendly sizes. Within that gallery, you’ll have access to the top photo print labs in the world, so you can easily order professional prints right to your doorstep.
Sneak Peak Preview Gallery: You won’t have to wait long to relive your day—I’ll send you a preview gallery of 60–80 highlight images within the first week after your wedding.
Hand-edited, Curated Final Gallery: You won’t have to wait long to relive your day—I’ll send you a preview gallery of 60–80 highlight images within the first week after your wedding.
Unlimited Planning Support:You'll never be left guessing. I offer unlimited planning consultations, so you always have an expert in your corner. Need help choosing outfits, figuring out permits, or just want to bounce around ideas? I’m here for all of it.
Wedding day Photography Coverage: 8-10 hours will fully cover a full wedding day, and 4-6 hours of photography covers a typical intimate wedding
Full Photographer access: From the day you book to the moment you say "I do," I’m all in. Schedule voice calls or Zoom calls, ask all the questions—I’ve got years of experience and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
At its core, documentary-style photography is about storytelling.
It’s candid, unscripted, and deeply observant. It doesn’t interrupt the moment—it preserves it. It shows how it feels.

“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!”

As a minimum, for weddings, I deliver at least 400. I don't put a set number on how many you will receive but I never leave anything out. I don't put a cap or a limit on what I will deliver. Every wedding is different and varies from the last, and numbers are always changing.
-
We can reschedule if weather is really that awful, but some of my favorite sessions ever have been in rain/hail/snow storms! And wind? Wind is what I pray that we get before every shoot! Embracing the weather makes for incredible photos. The only times I’ve rescheduled shoots due to weather is if my camera will be ruined by the weather. We will make the decision together whether we need to reschedule or not.

I sure do! I specialize in central U.S. and Colorado travel is always included. Any other costs for photography and travel will always be up front in your contract, and you'll never be surprised by the final cost.
-
I can help you find a venue and recommend vendors to make your day as seamless and special as it should be.
-
Yes, absolutely. You can download all of your photos, in high resolution, for free. I never charge per download. If you'd like prints, you can print directly from your personal gallery.
-
If you already put deposit down on a date and then have to move/cancel it, the deposit is non-refundable and a new deposit will have to be made in order to hold your new date. I don’t do this because I’m trying to suck money from you, but because I’m counting on that money during that time to pay bills and I only take on limited amounts of jobs per month, meaning that I depend on that money.
