the experience
I'm drawn to the authentic moments. The ones that feel real, honest, and entirely yours. My approach goes beyond documentation: I invest time in truly knowing you, understanding your story, and capturing it with both artistry and intention.
Your experience matters as much as your imagery. If you're seeking sincerity and craft in equal measure, then let's begin.

Darby

"From the very beginning Darby felt like more than just our photographer. She felt like someone we had known for forever."
From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, she made everything feel effortless, fun and genuinely us. Our engagement session set the tone for everything. Darby immediately eased any nerves we had and made the experience feel so natural and fun. She's incredibly detail oriented, but in a way that never feels stiff or posed. She's able to capture people as they are, which was huge for my husband and I as we wanted the pictures to feel like us and our love. Our wedding came next....and honestly, we don't have the words. The sneak peeks alone had us sobbing. Every image feels so in the moment with so much emotion, like we're reliving the day from angles and perspectives we didn't even realize we missed. Looking through them felt like stepping back into our wedding day all over again.
Beyond her talent, Darby's presence is unmatched. Her energy, her laugh, her personality. She brings such a calming, joyful presence that makes every moment better. We've told her this so many times, but we truly cannot imagine our engagement shoot or wedding day without her. If you're considering Darby, stop looking. You will not only get stunning photos, but an experience you'll cherish forever. Especially a photographer who genuinely cares about you and your story.

"Her love and care of you, your family, and what she's truly capturing shines through her work."
All the emotions absolutely flooded in as my husband and I looked through our wedding album on the big screen. All the tears, laughs, and joy of the day shining right through Darby's photos, bringing us back to our incredibly special day. We will be cherishing these amazingly beautiful, hilarious, emotional, special photos Darby captured forever and ever! From the detail shots to the first look, Darby truly captured what vibes we were envisioning and the true feeling of that moment and our overall special day. We truly cannot thank her enough for being an absolute dream to work with from day one. She is one of the sweetest people we know and we would recommend her a million times over. We appreciate her and her team so, so much. Our day would not have been as perfect, fun, or beautiful without them! Darby truly brings the best vibes to any event she works. Her love and care of you, your family, and what she's truly capturing shines through her work! We are so beyond grateful that we chose Darby as our engagement and wedding photographer! Our photos turned out more amazing than we could have ever imagined! We cannot wait to print them out and show our future children down the line.

"From the beginning, Darby was truly a gift from the universe."
We believe things happen for a reason, and life throws variables at you that stimulate growth and change. Darby fits all of these things as she was an absolute delight to work with, and we not only have amazing photographs from our wedding, but we have someone we consider a friend. She was so kind to our friends and family, and accommodated us in every way possible. It truly felt like we were apart of the best kept secret, and cannot wait to see her shoot into stardom as she is bound to do. We are beyond sure that Darby was the perfect photographer for us. My advice for those looking into working with Darby, is that if you are looking for a photographer who you want to connect with, have someone that is looking out for you and put you before anything else, she is the only option. Her talent is top tier, but for us, it was everything else she brought to us that day and throughout the entire process. We will always back Darby in whatever she does because we believe in good people, and the world will always need people like Darby.
"She is fun, creative, intuitive, and knows exactly how to bring your vision to life, whatever it may be."
Where do I even begin with Darby? When I say that Darby is the most talented, kindest, most uplifting HUMAN, let alone photographer, I've ever met, it feels like a wild understatement. My (now) husband and I are NOT huge picture-takers. However, judging by the number of INCREDIBLE photos Darby got of us from both our engagement and wedding, you'd think I was lying. Darby was able to capture the mood and essence of our entire wedding through incredible candids and still shots alike. We chose one of our "sneak peeks" to send out as our Christmas card and an absurd amount of people reached out saying "props to the photographer, this picture belongs in a magazine." I genuinely can't say enough good things about Darby, who she is as a person and the TALENT she brings as a photographer. She is fun, creative, intuitive, and knows exactly how to bring your vision to life, whatever it may be. She brings her very noticeable stamp to YOUR day and creates a photo album unlike any other. Words don't feel like praise or thanks enough, but I'm so grateful to have Darby's pictures to cherish for the rest of my life and remember my wedding day through!

"Choosing Darby as our photographer has been the best decision we've madE in all of our wedding planning! "
Choosing Darby as our photographer has been the best decision we've made in all of our wedding planning! She is so talented, captured our love perfectly and her kindness and genuine love for her clients is evident in all of her work! From the very beginning Darby was extremely attentive and so excited to capture our vision. Our engagement shoot was everything we could have hoped for and more. We had a blast shooting and she went above and beyond in every way, even surprising us with bonus props and accessories pulled straight from my Pinterest board inspiration. I could not recommend Darby enough and we're counting down the days until our wedding so we can work with her again!!

"Darby was an absolute DREAM. From the first time meeting her at our engagement shoot to waving goodbye to her after our wedding day was over, Darby was kind, professional, and brought our dreams to life. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable with her bubbly and outgoing personality. Her passion for her work is evident. The photos we received back from her of our wedding day took our breath away. If you are considering booking her for your wedding JUST DO IT! She exceeded our expectations and gave us memories of our wedding that will last a lifetime."
This is what I live for. No matter where your story unfolds, I'm there to capture it with artistry and intention.
