Your wedding is not something to perform — it’s something to experience. My approach is rooted in observation, presence, and intention, allowing the day to unfold naturally while I document it with care.
I’m drawn to the way people connect when they’re fully themselves. The energy in a room. The quiet exchanges. The moments that aren’t planned, but end up meaning the most. Rather than directing or staging, I focus on preserving what’s real — thoughtfully and honestly.
No formulas. No expectations of how it should look. Just artful documentation that reflects the way your love actually feels.
"Carly is truly the best that there is. We spoke with a few different videographers and did not really connect with any of them before Carly. I felt like she was a friend after one 30 minute FaceTime. Throughout the entire process, Carly was so attentive and responsive. She really understood our vision and helped bring it to life with the most wonderful videos (you must do super8 film it is soooo worth it!). Carly is so warm and friendly and I loved having her a part of our wedding day. she made me, my husband and all of my bridesmaids feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We absolutely love Carly and could not recommend her enough. We have been watching our films on repeat and feel like they captured our day so perfectly. Highly highly recommend!!!! I hope to work with Carly again in the future!"
Carly perfectly captured our day and I would choose her 1000x over again. We live in WA and Carly was able to help with San Diego recommendations that we could trust!
I absolutely loved getting a sneak peek into Carly’s style with our engagement video. She helped make my husband and I comfortable being filmed and prepared us for the wedding day! The actual wedding day was perfect with Carly. She came early and filmed a first look with my dad and a special moment with my mom and they are moments I will cherish forever!
I was in love with the 30 second video she initially sent, but when we received the full video we were overwhelmed. I still watch it every week … 6 months later. Everyone always compliments Carly’s style and how she made our personalities shine throughout!! She took my ideas and our special day and brought it to life. I truly wouldn’t change a thing about our videos… they take me right back to getting married to the love of my life. Her style is so effortless and genuine - just like her!!
I was back and forth on the idea of a videographer, but thanks to Carly, I am SO glad we went the direction we did! We are so obsessed with our video and I still watch it nonstop! She captured our day and personalities beautifully.
I emailed a few videographers before Carly and not one of them wanted to FaceTime/zoom. Once I reached out to Carly, she asked me for my availability to FaceTime and get to know myself, my husband, our vision, etc. I knew right away that she was the one who needed to capture our special day! I was grateful that we jumped on a call and clicked immediately!
Not only was she so personable, she delivered our video just a few weeks after our wedding day! We weren’t expecting to see our video for a couple of months because our wedding was in the middle of her busy season. We were blown away!

For the ones craving something different, the ones rewriting tradition: eloping isn’t about skipping the celebration, it’s about choosing meaning over expectation. Whether it’s a cliffside vow exchange or a candlelit backyard celebration, I’ll be there to document the stillness, the spark, and the story.
With elopements, there’s room to breathe. Room to be present. Room to focus on what really matters: the connection between you and your beloved. I work closely with you to shape an experience that feels like you, and then capture it with an intentional, artful lens.
Every season of life is worth remembering. Whether you’re longtime lovers, newly engaged, or celebrating a meaningful chapter, couple sessions are a chance to slow down, be present, and create something intentional, simply because it matters. Whether digital or super 8 I can't wait to capture you and your love!
For creatives, artists, and brands with heart, this is more than headshots. It is an opportunity to capture the essence of what you do and why you do it. No matter the community you serve, I approach brand storytelling with the same care, attentiveness, and nuance I bring to every love story.
We will collaborate to create a visual narrative that feels elevated, intentional, and unmistakably you. Less about perfect poses and more about natural rhythm, texture, and tone. Imagery that reflects your creative vision and connects in a way that feels honest, artful, and human.
If you want it slightly softer, slightly bolder, or more poetic, I can shape it further to fit exactly where it’s living on your site.
Yes. While I’m based in San Diego and Washington State, I travel for the majority of my weddings each year throughout the U.S. and internationally. Travel is included in my collections. Please inquire to receive my full investment guide with additional details.
Final films are delivered within 12–16 weeks. I take a thoughtful, intentional approach to editing, with careful attention to storytelling, sound design, and color.
Music plays an important role in shaping the feel of your film. During our final check-in, I’ll get a sense of your preferences, then select music that best reflects the energy and emotion of your day. Specific songs or artists cannot be guaranteed, as each film is crafted to fit the story naturally.
A selection of add-ons is available to further tailor your coverage. Options include additional coverage, super 8 film, rehearsal or welcome party coverage, full ceremony and speech edits, and social media–ready films. All add-ons can be added to your collection at an additional cost.
Yes. While my primary focus is full wedding days and weekends, I do take on a select number of elopements each year. I love intimate celebrations, whether it’s just the two of you or a small gathering with family and friends. Please inquire for availability and details.
