YOU VALUE THE LITTLE, JOY-FILLED MOMENTS
i value capturing your story as it is
REAL MOMENTS IN PHOTOS THAT YOU CAN FEEL
My JOY is to serve you in your most cherished moments, capturing the joy, light, emotion, feelings, and interactions you have with the people you love most – to give you a tangible memory to hold onto forever. I want you to look back at your photos and think, “That’s us. That feels like us.” Your story deserves to be captured in its fullest, truest form, and that's what I love more than anything.
INTENTIONAL STORY-TELLING
JOYFUL IMAGERY
TANGIBLE MEMORIES
Too often, we focus on the "perfect" image, the one that is "post-worthy", and those are beautiful, but what I find the most beautiful is authentic photos that capture YOU. More than a perfect photo that could be in a magazine, my goal is to capture your joy and excitement to the fullest! I'm here to give you memories that you'll feel, long after the moment has passed.
The belly laughs, the dancing like no one is watching, the moments you want to remember forever – these are the moments you feel your soul light up with joy, excitement, emotion, and it deserves to be captured.
Photos should make you FEEL. They should take you back to that exact moment. The emotion behind your memories is what I aim to capture in every frame, every moment, so that you can look back and say "that's us, I remember what that day felt like."

She never rushed us, reminded us to soak it all in and so easy to work with! We definitely would recommend her for any photos that you might be needing!
Abbie was fantastic and we could not have been happier with our wedding photos! My family was so happy with Abbie at our wedding day too that some of them booked family photos with her afterwards. Abbie was very good at communicating with us before the wedding and was very specific on what was needed from us. In return she was very attentive to what my husband and I wanted our day to feel like. She never rushed us, reminded us to soak it all in and so easy to work with! We definitely would recommend her for any photos that you might be needing!

You could tell how happy she was while taking our pictures and it was so fun to work with someone as dedicated as she was. She got us all our photos back so quickly and we couldn’t stop smiling while looking through our gallery.
Abbie made my fiancé and I feel so at ease during our engagement session. We drove to Colorado to take engagement pictures and couldn’t be happier we stumbled upon Abbie’s instagram and booked her for our session. She threw out a new location to go to before our session and we are so happy we went with her recommendation for location. It was STUNNING.

She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera which is definitely not something that comes naturally to us! She gave great direction for some “posed” shots, but also got so many fun candid shots too!
It was truly a JOY to work with Abbie! She did family photos for us last year, us being me, my husband and our two rascal pups. She was so incredibly patient with us, even when the dogs were being a little rowdy! She gave us great location recommendations and the spot we ended up picking was PERFECT for what we wanted. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera which is definitely not something that comes naturally to us! She gave great direction for some “posed” shots, but also got so many fun candid shots too! Abbie is so sweet, very kind and incredibly talented. We will 1000% be asking her to take photos of our family again!

When I saw the photos Abbie took of our engagement, it was an absolute no-brainer that she was the perfect photographer for our wedding! Abbie was hands down the best investment we made for our big day. She made sure every single little detail was planned out, and thought of so many things that I forgot about in the chaos of planning. From the planning months before hand to the actual day, she gave me so much confidence that my vision and hopes would be executed perfectly. She brought SO much life, joy, and energy to our wedding day!! She navigated tricky weather situations with grace and the photos came out stunningly perfect!!!
