Meet Zach- my (not so) secret weapon

Zach is not just my husband, he is also my assistant extraordinaire! His talents include carrying photo gear, bouquets, coats etc, keeping brides + bridesmaids cool on hot days, warm on cold ones and dry on rainy ones, getting grooms drinks, time keeping and even veil flipping! Having Zach around allows me to focus completely on the couple while he handles all of the miscellaneous tasks that pop up on wedding days. It’s kind of the best!

Get to know Zach

Zach is easy going, quiet and loves spending time outdoors. He is super handy and spends his free time in the garage restoring vintage radios or working on projects to fix up our new home! Zach is a developer by day and you can always find him at his desk with a cup of coffee nearby. He is originally from La Porte, Indiana and loves taking our two huskies for bike rides!

Together, we show up ready to support you through the big emotions and the quiet ones, creating photographs that feel honest, natural, and beautifully real.
