the Wedding Experience

I’m always paying attention.

I notice when your mom is trying not to cry. When you need a second to breathe. When your grandparents are having a quiet moment across the room. When something small is happening that might not seem important now, but someday will.

Knowing when to step in and guide you matters. Knowing when to quietly step back and let a moment belong to you matters just as much.

I don’t just want to photograph what your wedding looked like. I want to preserve what it felt like.

BEAUTIFUL DIRECTION WHEN YOU NEED IT. SPACE TO BE PRESENT WHEN YOU DON’T.

Your wedding day shouldn’t feel like one long photoshoot.

I’ll give you direction when you need it, so you never have to wonder what to do or worry about looking awkward. But once you’re comfortable, I want you focused on each other—not me.

You deserve to be fully in it.

You’ve probably spent months imagining how your wedding will look. But when the day finally comes, what you’ll remember most is how it felt. The nervous excitement. Your people gathered in one place. The laughter, the tears, and all the little moments you never could have planned.

Local wedding photography packages begin at $3,800. Destination and elopement photography packages are also available—please inquire for a complete pricing list.

When your wedding day arrives, you shouldn’t have to manage me.

I’ll step in when you need direction, keep things moving when necessary, and step back when the moment deserves to simply happen. I’m constantly watching for the big moments—but also the people, reactions and tiny pieces of your day you may not even realize are happening.

Afterward, I’ll carefully edit your photographs into a gallery that feels like your wedding—not just a collection of pretty images, but the story of the people you love and how it all

YOUR WEDDING DAY + THE STORY THAT COMES AFTER

4

As your wedding gets closer, we’ll work together to create a photography timeline that gives us what we need without making your entire day revolve around photos.

I’ll help you think through light, family portraits, getting-ready coverage, sunset and all the little logistics that can make a big difference. And if something changes on the wedding day? We roll with it.

You get to enjoy your wedding. I’ll worry about where I need to be.

PLANNING WITHOUT TAKING OVER

3

When you’re ready to make it official, a signed contract and $500 retainer reserve your date.

From there, we’ll plan your engagement session together. I’ll help with location, timing, outfits and all the little details—and once we’re shooting, I’ll give you plenty of direction so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands. 😂

By the end, being in front of my camera should feel a whole lot less intimidating.

MAKING IT OFFICIAL + YOUR ENGAGEMENT SESSION

Once you inquire, I’ll reach out so we can talk through what you’re planning, what matters most to you, and what you want your wedding day to actually feel like.

This is where I start getting to know the two of you—not just your venue and timeline. The more I understand your relationship and the people you love, the better I can photograph your day in a way that feels personal to you.

GETTING TO KNOW YOU + YOUR DAY

How it works

Amazing! There for every step!

Lydia is an absolutely amazing photographer. My wedding, anniversary shoot, and many friends’ weddings have been captured so perfectly by Lydia. She is professional, but also makes you feel so comfortable…like she is just a friend there taking pictures along the way. She knows exactly what to catch and never misses the best moments. Not only is she amazing on the day of, but leading up to and afterward as well. I highly recommend Lydia for ANY event in your life that you want captured forever! -Kristin

What you'll get

She made us feel so comfortable.

I am so happy we chose Lydia as our engagement and wedding photographer. She is so talented and just knows exactly what to do to get the perfect pictures. She made us feel so comfortable and told us exactly how to position ourselves so we didn't have to do any thinking! She is so sweet, flexible, and likes to meet ahead of time to make sure she gets to know you, which is so important in making you feel comfortable in front of the camera! -Haley

YOUR WEDDING DOESN’T NEED TO LOOK LIKE ANYONE ELSE’S.

How do you want your story to be told?

Share your vision

There are a hundred different voices telling you what your wedding day should look like. Traditions you’re supposed to keep. Photos you’re supposed to take. Things you’re supposed to care about.

But somewhere underneath all of that is the reason you’re doing this in the first place—you found your person.

I want you to build a day that feels like the two of you. Keep the traditions that mean something. Let go of the ones that don’t. Make room for the people you love, the places that feel like home, and the moments you actually want to remember.

Because years from now, I don’t want you to look at your photographs and remember how perfectly everything went.
