Moving to the West Coast in 2019 transformed my relationship with photography. I fell in love with the art of noticing the little moments in life and documenting them to tell the love-stories all around us. Photographs allow us to relive our precious memories and the emotions that are connected to them forever. It's a privilege to be able to capture these moments of your life, so please consider me as your friend. Someone you can rely on through all of your biggest milestones :)

EXPERIENCE

Let's be real... no one loves a camera in their face. That's why I make this process an easy-going experience for you. I'll handle all the nitty-gritty details. All you have to do is show up and smile! While only taking a limited number of sessions and weddings per year, I dedicate my time to making you feel comfortable and confident, while of course, creating beautiful photos.

PHOTOGRAPHS ARE our legacy that will be passed down for generations to come.

More than just pictures...

We'll kick things off with a one-on-one meeting to get to know each other and discuss your visions and desires!

STEP ONE | PERSONAL CONSULTATION

You can expect transparent pricing and package options. No hidden fees or surprises. Open and consistent communication is a priority. Any questions? I'm here for you!

STEP TWO | PRICING + COMMUNICATION

On your wedding day, I'll be there to capture moments without being intrusive. You can enjoy your special day with your loved ones and I'll document it all.

STEP THREE | SUBTLE PRESENCE

In the end, you can expect not just photos but a timeless collection of memories that will allow you to relive the joy, love, and beauty of your wedding day for years to come.

STEP FOUR | LASTING MEMORIES

What to expect

LOVE NOTES...

"We are absolutely thrilled with the incredible work done by Olivia and her team on our wedding day! From the beginning, Olivia made us feel comfortable and confident. Prior to our wedding, we scheduled an engagement shoot with her, where she took the time to understand our style and what was most important to us. Olivia and her team were a joy to work with at our wedding - professional, friendly, and incredibly efficient. Her creative vision and technical expertise captured the essence of our day in the most authentic and beautiful way. The final photos exceeded all of our expectations. They are a perfect reflection of the joy, love, and excitement we felt, and we will cherish them forever. If you want a photographer who is passionate, talented, and committed to delivering stunning results, we wholeheartedly recommend Olivia!"

MATERNITY

Annika + Jalen

"My partner and I have a tradition of getting photos taken every trip we go on together, and I’m so glad we found Olivia for our San Diego session! I came across her work on Instagram and instantly fell in love with her style. She did such an incredible job—not only were the photos stunning, but she made the whole experience feel so comfortable and fun. It honestly felt like we were just hanging out on the beach while she captured these beautiful moments. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly cares about her clients and their experience, I can’t recommend Olivia enough!"

Laura + Ethan

"Olivia is a natural. She has confidence behind the camera, is fun and easy going to be around, and is always up for a creative challenge. She's not shy about directing poses, so if you feel uncomfortable with having your photos taken or unsure of what to do with your arms or hands, she will guide you! And of course, the photos that she creates are beautiful, with rich colors and moods. Working with Olivia is fun and inspiring, because her passion for photography shines through. She lights up when she's behind the camera, and it's a joy to be photographed by someone like that."

WEDDING

Brittany + Toby

"Olivia is AWESOME! When our photographer backed out, we had Olivia referred to us and we could not be happier with the results/our experience working with her. Incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, and a very quick turnaround time!

She was incredibly professional, personable, and our photos turned out AMAZING! Olivia nailed it and gave us exactly what we wanted per our mood board. From the booking process to photoshoot ideation, to photoshoot execution, Olivia had a vision for it. During our 2-hour shoot, she did an exceptional job making all of our models feel comfortable and made it a FUN & relaxing shoot for everyone involved! Will be working with her again! 10/10."

THE DRAFT - BELMONT PARK

Monty

"Olivia was an absolute angel! When my fiancé surprised me with a proposal, Olivia was and incredible actor, played along with the story, and I was 100% caught off guard. We then had a full engagement shoot and Olivia made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Her guidance was easy to follow and made the photos look and feel so natural! The end result was stunning!! Can’t wait to work with her again!"
