What is a Micro Wedding

A micro wedding is an intimate affair, that still feature time-honored traditions on a smaller scale. What we love about them is...

The Cotton + Joy co. Wedding couples

A couple who is always up for adventure & not afraid to get their feet dirty or a little wet. You see rain as a blessing & find freedom in nature, but can also find deep nature in the beauty of the city. The two of you embrace life as it comes, knowing it always turns out for the best. You believe photos should be printed, because there's nothing like holding a photo in your hands. Couples who want to share these memories for generations to come. But most importantly, you believe in putting each other first. Because the real adventure comes after the "I dos."

Approach

our signature

From the moment we connect, it’s my goal to make you completely comfortable. I know just where to take you, how to plan your day, and will surround you with the kind of energy that makes you actually excited to be in front of the camera. 

What's unique to my craft is the focus on small details to tell the complete story of your love. From your newborn's tiny toes to the way your grandmother's eyes well with tears when she sees you walk down the aisle - no detail is too small.
