The Signature Collection

The Essentials Collection is designed for couples planning a more intimate or streamlined wedding day while still wanting beautiful, thoughtful photography. With 6 hours of coverage, this collection focuses on the most meaningful parts of your celebration - typically your ceremony, portraits, and the early moments of your reception. My goal is to document your day naturally as it unfolds while capturing genuine moments, timeless portraits, and the details that make your wedding uniquely yours. You’ll also receive guidance with timeline planning to help everything flow smoothly and ensure we make the most of your photography time. After the wedding, your images are carefully edited in my true-to-life, film-inspired style and delivered in a private online gallery where you can download, share, and print your photos with ease.

The Essentials Collection

An engagement session is a relaxed way to celebrate this season of your lives together while creating beautiful images that capture your connection naturally. We’ll choose a location that fits your style, and I’ll guide you throughout so everything feels comfortable and natural. It’s also a great opportunity for us to work together before the wedding day so you can feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera. Your fully edited images are delivered in a private online gallery where you can download, share, and order professional prints. Many couples use these photos for save-the-dates, wedding websites, announcements, and framed prints for their home. Sessions are typically scheduled on weekday evenings around golden hour for the most flattering natural light. We can also use this session to capture your proposal, let me know the details and we'll keep it a surprise!

"We are so thankful to Seth for stepping in as our photographer at the last minute when our original photographer had an emergency on the day of our wedding. Even though it was unexpected, Seth jumped right in and did an amazing job. He was calm, professional, and really knew what he was doing.
From the ceremony to the reception, he captured every moment perfectly, even though he didn't have a second shooter. The photos turned out beautiful, and we couldn't be happier with them."

Annie & Josh

"Seth is absolutely AMAZING! Fantastic direction, made planning incredibly easy by asking for shot lists and an inspo board. He’s incredibly kind and thoughtful and I would recommend him to anyone! Thank you so much Seth!"

Alexia & Logan

"I had the honor of having Seth as my wedding photographer and let me start by saying WOW! Seth is extremely talented and truly has a passion for the craft. My now husband and I were in awe of his work with natural colors and light that from our first meeting with him, we knew he was the photographer for us. He is so easy to work with. He has great communication, he listens and provides excellent guidance wherever you need it. One of our favorite things about him is that his creativity is endless! Trying new things lead to some our best and favorite photos that really capture the moment. From our engagement session to our big day, he just made this whole experience so stress free and I would absolutely hire him all over again!"

Guadalupe & Robert

On our wedding day, he made us feel completely comfortable and at ease, which made such a difference and it really shows in the photos. Every single picture is absolutely stunning. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the entire day all over again. Seth is talented, reliable, and genuinely passionate about what he does. We are beyond grateful and would recommend him a thousand times over!"
