Hi, I'm Joni

I'm all about laughter, sunshine, & road trips. I've been photographing couples for over 10 years now and I just can't seem to get enough of it!

 

My warm, bubbly personality always seems to keep EVERYONE in good spirits throughout the wedding day! I’m a calming force when things start to get stressful and ready to keep the energy up to dance the night away together!

 

Sometimes wedding days don't go exactly as planned. I’m extremely flexible and prepared to provide expert, judgment-free guidance to help you pivot and get right back to having the time of your life!

"Joni made me feel like it was ok to be myself. I was very nervous leading up to the ceremony and her infectious lightheartedness calmed me down. It was amazing to have someone who lets you enjoy those personal moments with your family and friends but was also able to join in on some laughs and be a part of the group!"

My style + approach

Editing Style

Bright - to match your joy + happiness during this time

Film tones - to add a touch of nostalgia to your memories

Clean - to stand the test of time

 

Photo Style

Emotion-infused candids meets natural + laughter-filled portraits.

 

Approach

I blend seamlessly into your crew of friends, family, and guests so that everyone feels comfortable to be themselves and live in the moment. Throughout the day, I gently keep everyone on task and keep my cool no matter what comes along! I love on your family like they are my own.

"She is playful and makes everyone feel happy and comfortable. I'm not naturally into posing for photos but her games and playfulness made it a breeze. What stands out to me is how smoothly she blended into the day. It was like she was part of the family - making everyone laugh, getting everyone together and she even has some great dance moves :)"

My favorite wedding day moments:

1. EMOTIONAL VOWS

This is where we ALL get choked up (I'm not alone, right?!) I so enjoy hearing what unique promises each couple has for the other, when they wipe each other's tears, and how easily they can make each other laugh. There is SO much heart in this portion of the day, I don't know how it couldn't be a fave!

 

2. Romantic PORTRAITS

Portrait time with the couple is hands down my favorite part of the day! This is when we get to laugh uncontrollably, produce something special, and when my couples really get to enjoy their wedding day together! We have SO much fun, so I have to put it on the top of my list.

 

3. RIGHT AFTER THE CEREMONY

Not all photographers pay attention to this moment, but the first few seconds of marriage are so special! This is when the couple gets to hug, laugh, or cry over the moment they realize "we are finally married!" It's emotional and I love documenting this part of the day!

Are we a perfect match? Get in touch!

I'm so excited to hear all about you two and your magical day!
