the high touch experience
what it's like to work with me
I’ll over-communicate so you’re never left wondering, help plan your locations, and take the pressure off so you can be present and enjoy every moment.
You’re not just planning a wedding — you’re curating an experience that reflects who you are and a memory for a lifetime. So when you work with me, you'll get a high-touch experience. You’re getting someone who’s deeply invested—who keeps the timeline on track, fixes your veil, guides the wedding party, moves furniture (for the shot!) and makes sure you feel confident and cared for every step of the way.
WE HELP MODERN COUPLES PRESERVE THEIR STORY WITH INTENTION AND CARE
we offer photo, video, and 35mm film
Every great experience starts with a conversation. We’ll hop on a call to talk about your vision, your venue, and how you want your day to feel (first date vibes). I’ll walk you through the experience, answer all your questions, and make sure we’re the perfect fit.
This is where we start building trust—and something truly beautiful.
Step One: First Date
Once we decide we’re a match, I’ll send over your custom proposal and contract. From there, we’ll lock in your date, & prep for the next steps. You’ll also get access to helpful planning guides and vendor recommendations to make the entire process feel seamless.
You'll get intention from the start.
Step Two: Collaborate
Time to celebrate and get comfortable in front of the camera! We’ll start planning your engagement session and I’ll send over my prep guide with outfit tips, location ideas, and everything you need to feel confident. I promise shooting with me is always FUN! Think of me as your professional third wheel and hype woman. Don't worry about feeling uncomfortable or awkward -- I always find a way to break the ice.
Step Three: The Fun begins
About 2 months out, we’ll collaborate on your custom photography timeline and finalize any must-have shots or logistics. I’m here to help ensure your day flows smoothly and stress-free.
Step Four: Wedding Prep
This day is all about you two! Leave it to me to take care of you. All you have to do is enjoy the moment. I’ll be by your side to capture all the joy, emotion, and editorial magic — from the big moments to the quiet, fleeting ones you didn’t even realize were happening.
Step Five: Wedding Day
Surprise in your email! Within a few days, you’ll receive sneak peeks to relive the magic. Your full gallery will follow soon after — thoughtfully edited, film-inspired, and ready to be treasured for years to come.

—Kevin & Amy
On the day of the wedding, Helena was everywhere without ever being intrusive. She captured not only the key moments (the ceremony, the vows, the kiss), but also the quiet, meaningful ones: the nerves before we walked in, the looks we exchanged, the laughter with loved ones. Every photo is filled with emotion, light, and love.
The images she delivered were absolutely stunning, beautifully composed, timelessly edited, and full of heart.
