My name is Aimee, and I live in Central Pa. I am a big fan of our 4 distinct seasons, the woods, and having my family close by.
As a lover of Love, adventure, and the outdoors, I feel like I hit the career Jackpot being able to photograph elopements and intimate weddings. I get to document the coolest couples, doing the activities they love, in epic locations, while they say I DO. Is there anything better?
Coming from a photojournalism background, my strength as a photographer comes in anticipating moments and capturing them. I am also the ultimate cheerleader. I want your wedding day to be as amazing as you are!
When I am not photographing weddings, you will probably find me running trails (I have actually run a couple 50 milers), paddle boarding, cross country skiing, drinking coffee, growing killer veggies, or snuggling with my cat Steve.
