Hi, I’m Natalie, a fine art wedding photographer specializing in destination celebrations. As a hybrid photographer, I blend digital and film to create timeless, artful images that feel both refined and deeply emotive. With over a decade of experience, I approach each wedding with an editorial eye, ensuring every moment is captured with meaning and intention.

My work is rooted in storytelling—documenting the quiet in-between moments and grand celebrations alike. I believe wedding photography should be more than just beautiful; it should be deeply personal. Every image is crafted to preserve the essence of the day, allowing you to relive each moment with clarity and emotion for years to come.

No matter the setting, my goal is to create a visual narrative that reflects your love story with artistry, depth, and heart—ensuring that each frame feels as timeless as the memories themselves.

“Hiring Natalie as our wedding photographer was the best decision we could have made! She was so personable, fun, and made it very easy!”

If I have a free Sunday I would spend it …

Slow and simple—probably starting with a quiet morning, coffee in hand, and no rush to be anywhere. I’d spend time with my husband and girls, maybe head to our favorite breakfast spot or just relax at home. In the evening, we’d go to my dad’s house for family dinner with my five siblings, their spouses, and all the kids—chaotic, but the best kind of chaos.

My most memorable travel experience was …

One memory I’ll never forget is almost wrecking our rental car in Pienza. My husband was set on visiting the famous field from Gladiator, and since it was Republic Day, the town was packed. After circling for a while, we spotted cars parked on the side of a hill and figured it was safe. What we didn’t realize was that there was a hidden drop-off covered by tall grass. As soon as we pulled in, the passenger side started sliding off the edge. I had to crawl out through the driver’s side so the car didn’t tip completely. Thankfully, a friendly couple walked by and helped us call a tow truck. In the end, we were incredibly lucky—no damage to the car, just a very good story to tell. Safe to say, we triple-check parking spots now!

What I love most about my job is …

What I love most about my job is getting to document moments that truly matter. Weddings are filled with so much emotion—joy, anticipation, love—and being able to capture those feelings in a way that couples can relive for years to come is such an honor. I also love the connections I make along the way—getting to know my couples, hearing their stories, and being part of one of the most meaningful days of their lives. It never gets old.

I love where I live because …

I love where I live because it’s home—the place where my family is, where my girls are growing up, and where so many memories are being made. There’s something special about having a space that feels familiar and comforting, no matter how much I love traveling. Plus, I get to experience all four seasons, which makes life feel a little more magical.

My favourite movie is …

I could list so many, but if I had to choose one, it would be About Time. I didn’t watch it until a few years ago, but every time I do, it hits me just as hard as the first time. It’s the kind of movie that makes you slow down and appreciate the little moments—the ones that seem small but end up meaning everything. The storytelling, the emotions, and the reminder to be present with the people we love—it all just stays with me. And yes, I cry every single time.

The pets I own are …

I have two dachshunds—Copper, a short-haired, and Belle, a long-haired miniature. We also currently have 14 chickens that my daughters treat like pets!

Morgan & Zachary

"Natalie was incredible! From the planning stages, engagement photos, and our big day, Natalie was amazing to work with. She helped us pose during our engagement photos and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. The day of she worked efficiently to make sure we stayed on track, but never made us feel rushed. We absolutely LOVE how all our photos turned out and our family and friends keep commenting how beautiful they are. We will definitely be contacting Natalie for future family photos and highly recommend her to anyone!"
