photographs as unique as the story they tell.
the
experience
Photojournalistic meets images delivered with unmatched client support and plenty of nostalgia to follow –guaranteed.
No two weddings are the same.
We create a custom proposal tailored to your special day after our consult call. To ensure the greatest experience for my couples, I only accept a limited number of weddings per year. If I am unavailable, my associates will take great care of you under the ARW brand. We will create a tailored collection for your day based on coverage needed.
We vow to document your day as it truly was and deliver a legacy that will live on forever. Effortlessly luxurious like a dream as you comb through your images –even decades from now.

Your Wedding Experience
our philosophy with every wedding
Photos that make you feel something
Because when the day is over, your photos are all you have left. Fleeting moments turn into blurry memories over time. Photographs hold the power to bring those moments back into focus.
Posing with Curated Direction
With a background in photojournalism and Fashion Design, I can help capture you at your best angles all while making sure you feel at ease and completely taken care of (humble brag).
we
create
your vision.
We offer curated timeline assistance. We send a questionnaire 60 days prior to your wedding day to ensure you have enough time for every special moment that needs to be captured.
we are efficient & prompt
Just know you will hear from me anywhere within 48-72 hours. I like keeping my inbox at zero. 48-72 hours following the big day we will send over a hundred images or so to share with friends and family or for thank you cards!
HOW IT WORKS
01
A free consultation for you to get a feel for what it'll be like working together. We'll chat about your dreams and visions, and how we can make it all work.

Together, we’ll sign the dotted lines to secure your booking. After that, I’ll send you a questionnaire that'll help me get to know you.
03
From scouting shoot locations to finessing your logistics, we'll keep in touch throughout your wedding planning process. Got a question to run by me? I'm just an email away.
04
This comes with a delivery of our style guide and wedding magazine to help you plan and prep for things as best you possibly can!
05
We'll be there every step of the way with multiple shooters to make sure the moments that matter are caught so you can.

Do you shoot digital or film?
I currently shoot with two Sony cameras, with back ups and I occasionally bring and shoot a little film with my 35mm.
Do you have insurance?
Yes! We are insured up to $1,000,000 of liability coverage. Let me know if your venue requires a certificate of insurance.
Do you travel for weddings?
I will travel anywhere and beyond for weddings. If your wedding is within 1.5 hours of Detroit, there are no additional charges. If it's beyond that, all I require is accommodation and a travel fee.
do we need a second shooter?
A second photographer is typically recommended for weddings with 150 guests or more. Contact me and we can sort the details out
Can we order albums & prints?
Yes! You can order prints, frames, and more via your online gallery. We also offer custom-designed, beautiful leather albums that are heirloom pieces here.
How do we reserve you for our day?
All that is required to book me is 30% retainer and the signed contract. You can always adjust your package once you have a better idea of logistics.
Can we customize a package?
Of course! I send a pricing guide to get a feel for our most popular packages. We can always tailor something custom specific to what you need.
how many bW images do we get?
A rough estimate of black and white images are usually 10-20% of the gallery. If you wish to have more black and white images contact me directly & I would be more than happy to edit more for you.
How many images can we expect?
You'll receive over 600-800 photos, depending on how many hours we shoot and how jam-packed your wedding day is! Assume 100 images per hour
