Honest, soulful, unscripted.
You’re not just planning a wedding. You’re crafting a day that feels like you — the quiet glances, the happy tears, the wild dance moves, and the just-married glow. I’m Kendall, a documentary-style wedding photographer with a soft spot for real emotion and warm, dreamy vibes. I capture your day as it naturally unfolds — no awkward poses, just all the in-between magic that makes your love story yours. Read below to learn more about how I make your photos and experience as unique as you deserve.
Let's freeze those fleeting moments forever.
Your comfort is everything. I believe the most beautiful wedding photos happen when you’re not performing — you’re feeling.
I take a documentary-style approach that lets your day breathe. That means I blend quietly into the background, capturing all the big emotions and fleeting moments without interrupting the flow. I’ll gently guide you when it’s helpful, but I’ll never ask you to fake a moment that doesn’t feel true to you.
Whether you’re camera-shy or totally in your element, I’ll tailor the experience to feel natural, relaxed, and undeniably you (in digital and 35mm film)! Because when you’re comfortable, you’re present — and that’s where the real magic happens.
I’m based in Metro-Detroit, and I photograph weddings all across the Midwest and United States — from cozy backyard “I do’s” to mountaintop elopements and destination celebrations. If your love has a location, I’ll meet you there with my camera and a heart full of excitement!
If you’ve made it this far, thank you — truly. That probably means something about documentary-style wedding photography has resonated with you. Maybe it’s the raw emotion, the genuine laughter, or the quiet in-between moments that so often go unnoticed. Maybe you're dreaming of a wedding gallery that feels like a story — your story — not just a highlight reel of photos that look like every one else's. You want something comfortable and true to you.
That’s exactly what I’m here to do.
My approach to wedding photography is rooted in real connection and honest storytelling. I don’t direct every second of your day — I observe, anticipate, and capture it as it naturally unfolds. Whether it’s your dad tearing up during the ceremony, your best friend busting a move on the dance floor, or the way you and your partner exchange that “we’re really doing this” look — those are the moments that matter. And those are the moments I live to capture.
Choosing your wedding photographer is a big deal — you’re not just picking someone with a camera; you’re inviting someone into one of the most intimate, emotional days of your life. That’s not something I take lightly. I’ll be there not just as your photographer, but as a calming presence, a timeline wrangler, and a quiet witness to the moments you might not even see happening.
If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who values authenticity over perfection, feeling over formality, and connection over convention — I think we’d be a great fit.
I’d love to hear more about your plans, your story, and what matters most to you. Whether you're eloping in the mountains, throwing a backyard bash, or hosting a full-on celebration with all your favorite people — I'm here for it.
Think of me as your professional third wheel (in the best way)! I believe the most meaningful wedding photos come when you’re relaxed, present, and having the time of your life.
My comfort-first approach means you get to be fully in the moment — laughing with your people, holding your partner close, soaking it all in — while I quietly document every honest, beautiful second. With enough direction to guarantee a beautiful gallery, and enough space to let you truly enjoy every moment, my process is the perfect blend for couples seeking a story-telling, authentic photography experience.

Kendall made us so comfortable and managed to capture our personalities so well... She is so thoughtful with the details in photos- both taking and editing them. We cannot speak highly enough of Kendall. If you're thinking of booking her, do it!
“We have found our lifelong photographer and could not be more grateful."

Kendall had the patience of a saint with the chaos we were working through, and was still by far the most pleasant person we worked with during our wedding season. We had extremely high expectations and she's already exceeded them with our sneak peeks!
“Book her now- I promise someone else will!”
