Experience
Working with Joanna
Working with me is more than just hiring a photographer — it’s choosing someone who will see you fully, hold space for your story, and preserve it with honesty and intention.
From the first conversation to the final gallery, my approach is rooted in connection and trust. I take time to get to know you — who you are, what matters most to you, and the moments you’ll want to relive again and again. This foundation allows me to photograph your day with intuition and ease, capturing not just how everything looked, but how it felt.
Whether you're exchanging vows in a quiet coastal town, dancing under the stars in your childhood backyard, or gathering loved ones across oceans — I’m there with my whole heart and a camera in hand, chasing the in-between moments that often go unseen: the squeeze of your parent’s hand, the way your partner exhales when they see you, the laughter that erupts when no one’s watching.
My approach is rooted in intuition and presence. I photograph with a balance of documentary honesty and editorial elegance — blending gentle direction with unobtrusive observation that blend both emotionally resonant and artfully composed.
Every photograph is created with care, not just for today, but for decades from now — a visual legacy of your love, preserved in its most meaningful form.
This is a deeply collaborative process, and I’m here to guide you through it with ease — from location scouting and timeline planning to calming nerves and fluffing your veil.
If you're dreaming of a wedding experience that values story over spectacle, meaning over perfection, and emotion over performance — you're in the right place.

FAQ
What if we’re awkward in front of the camera?
You won’t be — promise. My process is calm, connected, and built to make you feel comfortable and present. I’ll guide you every step of the way. I gently guide you into natural movement that feels relaxed and real — never stiff or overly posed. Most of my couples say they felt totally at ease and even forgot the camera was there.
How far in advance should we book?
Most couples book 12–18 months out, especially for popular dates. The sooner you inquire, the better we can secure your date and begin planning with intention.
How would you describe your style?
My approach is rooted in intuition and presence. I photograph with a balance of documentary honesty and editorial elegance — blending gentle direction with unobtrusive observation that blend both emotionally resonant and artfully composed.
Do you offer engagement sessions?
Yes — and I highly recommend it. It’s a great way for us to get to know each other, and for you to feel more comfortable in front of the camera before the big day.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes — and often. I photograph weddings around the world and take on a limited number of destination bookings each year to ensure every couple gets my full attention. Travel fees are custom-quoted based on your location.
How many photos do we receive?
For a full wedding day, you’ll receive 600–900 carefully curated images. Delivered in a private online gallery within 8–12 weeks, with preview highlights in the first few days. I aim to capture 50 images per hour.
We’re planning something non-traditional — are you into that?
Absolutely. Whether you're eloping abroad or creating a one-of-a-kind celebration, I'm here for it. If it’s intentional and meaningful to you, I want to be there.
Can we print our photos?
Yes! You’ll have access to professional printing directly through your gallery, and I offer custom heirloom albums and fine art prints designed to last for generations. Your photos deserve to live off your screen!
Can we split up our coverage throughout the day?
When you book with me, my entire day is yours. I take no other bookings, and I’m fully dedicated to documenting your wedding from start to finish. Coverage hours are consecutive, as I believe every moment — from the quiet preparations to the final dance — deserves to be captured in its entirety.
Do you work with second shooters?
Yes, when needed. For larger weddings or complex timelines, I’ll bring a trusted second photographer to ensure we don’t miss a moment.
Do we need to tip you?
Tipping is always appreciated but never expected. I’m here to provide the best experience possible for you, and your gratitude is always enough. However, if you feel moved to show appreciation, it's entirely at your discretion.
