The way Emma captures details is truly incredible and I am so happy we hired her. Our photos turned out even better than we expected.

“Hi, I’m Emma! I am a Kindergarten teacher, graduate student, dog mom, and lover of all things people, places, and photography. When I started my business in the Winter of 2024, I had just recently begun my full-time job as a teacher. I found myself needing an outlet that would allow me to fully express my love for telling a story. Capturing a couple’s unique bond is something that truly drives my passion for photography and enables me to cultivate a vibrant community where heartfelt stories are told beautifully, organically, and completely fluff-free.”

— Emma McDermott, Founder

“Love has the power to bring people together, fostering bonds that can last a lifetime. It is my job as your photographer to make sure that bond is captured in a stress-free and effortless manner.”

— Emma McDermott, Founder

“Emma is an absolute ray of sunshine and made both of us feel confident and comfortable throughout our session.”
