Zoe & Mike's Custom Wedding Photography Proposal

SATURDAY, MAY 31, 2025 | THE LINE HOTEL | WASHINGTON, DC

I’m so glad you’re here!

It's an honor to be considered to photograph your upcoming wedding. I can envision it now: an intentional celebration in the heart of DC with your family and friends surrounding you.

It's important to have a photographer you can fully trust on your wedding day. You'll need a team who:

- Documents authenticity and joy by having a keen eye for in-between moments

- Seamlessly captures the day with a thoughtful style and approach

- Understands when and how to direct photos without interrupting your experience

Zoe & Mike,

and a photographer who can capture the essence and significance of your day with truth and with heart.

You deserve a photography experience designed around you and your memories.

"Kiyah's ability to tell a story through photographs and her attention to the details of the day made it easy to hire her."

- GABY & CHRIS

KIND WORDS

A LASTING LEGACY

I believe that a photograph doesn't become a memory until you've held it in your hands. I'm passionate about you experiencing the beauty of tangible memories through albums, print boxes, and more. 

Rather than repeating stiff, cookie cutter poses, I focus on moments that uniquely reflect your genuine interactions without feeling like it's a day-long photoshoot.

EXPERIENCED & EMPATHETIC

There's no loud personas or bossy personalities on my team. We subtly document the day with a gentle yet confident perspective without interrupting your moments.

FULL WEEKEND COVERAGE

05

With all of the hustle and bustle on a wedding day, you'll need a discerning artistic eye to anticipate and capture the in-between moments that matter. I use a photojournalistic approach rooted in capturing candid moments and authentic interactions as they naturally unfold. So, your images reflect the true experience of your wedding instead of replicating others.

authenticity over perfection

04

Having photographed weddings for ten years, I've learned the delicate balance of offering advice without taking over. By working seamlessly with you and your vendor team, we will create a timeline that accommodates your most important moments, resulting in photos that make you look and feel amazing.

seamless experience

03

Don't you want your wedding photos to actually look like you? Instead of relying solely on trendy digital presets to edit your images, we incorporate analog film as a primary medium. This ensures consistent colors that accurately portray the hues of your skin tones and design choices.

Best described as a calm and reassuring presence on the wedding day, I subtly document your day with a gentle yet confident photojournalist-inspired perspective. This helps you feels at ease and relieved that your photographer understands when and how to direct photos without interrupting your experience.
