Hey, I’m AJ!

Queer, Feminist, Herbivore, Libra, ENFJ. I'm a firm believer that laughter is the answer to pretty much everything- and that tacos never hurt, either. I freaking love this job. When I’m not shooting, or editing, or texting/Facetiming/DMing/emailing with my clients, you can find me on my couch with my partner in our Avondale home watching terrible reality TV, and probably crying at cheesy commercials that involve snuggly babies. [I’m always the one crying. But the need to catch every single episode of Are You the One on MTV is definitely both of us.] I love a good lavender latte and a great pair of cozy sweatpants and I definitely want to pet your dog.

I care about your wedding day as much as you do. Seriously. I’m obsessed with getting to know each of my clients on a personal level, and as a couple. Are you into dance parties? Love to cook together? More of a Grubhub couple? (I like to cook but I LOVE to Postmates, ya feel me?) The little details matter, and so does your wedding photography. It should be fun, timeless, beautiful and PACKED with your personalities- a true reflection of your relationship in photos you’ll love forever. If that sounds good to you, I’m your girl. I’m a full service wedding professional; this means that beyond just delivering awesome photos, I’m here for you every step of the way. I’m the emergency bobby pin-carrying, holding your dress while you pee, navigating #allthefeels with you wedding photographer and I can’t wait to dance my butt off to Whitney Houston with you on your wedding day.

I'm so glad you're here.

XO, AJ

This is Celia

3842jeisjdzivusfxxxx………..i32e333333eeeeee….. (That’s her, always helping me edit your photos by standing directly on my keyboard) She can’t type [or speak English], but if she could, she’d tell you that she’s the cutest coworker a photographer could have. I saved her from a barn during an Ohio snowstorm 10 years ago, and she repays me by puking on my favorite rug. Celia enjoys shouting at squirrels through window screens, shredding paper bags
and finding that perfect patch of morning light.

 

This is Zach

He’s my partner, my best bud, and my favorite human.
He’s insanely funny and a crazy talented painter (yes, I’m a little biased, but it’s still true!) and I feel like the luckiest human alive to get to eat Taco Bell and go on adventures with this person. Doing life with Zach makes every day better, even the tough ones, and I draw on our love and partnership for inspiration when I’m shooting. I want to capture photos that look the way your love feels, because that feeling is pretty dang awesome.

AJ is meant to be a photographer. Her eye for photos and kind, warm personality is top notch. She made our family feel so comfortable and really ran the show the entire wedding day. She got all the shots and more that we dreamed of. I look at the pictures every day.
