What to know before you book a wedding photographer
Most couples come to me with two things:
✨ A vision for a beautiful day.
😬 And a quiet fear that they won’t look or feel like themselves in their photos.
Maybe that’s you, too.
You want to feel amazing on your wedding day, but not fake and performative. You want to be captured with care without being overly posed. You want photos that stop time, but without sacrificing the actual experience of your day.
If you’ve been secretly dreading the “photo part” of the wedding…
I see you. And you’re not alone.
🕊️What I believe
At LT2 Photography, I don’t just take beautiful pictures. I create a space for you to be seen—as you are.
Fully. Freely. Without apology.
My job is to guide you from unsure and self-conscious to confident, cared-for, and beautifully seen through emotionally safe, soulfully honest photography that helps you feel proud of how you love and how you show up.
This is photography that feels like home: Safe. Soulful. Stunning.

Here’s my origin story. It’s a little bit winding, a lot heart-led, and completely shaped by the kind of love I get to document every day.

A story I’ll never forget
One of my recent couples, CJ & Danaya, were 34 weeks pregnant on their wedding day.
They didn’t wear a white gown.
They were too nervous to dance in front of everyone, so they sang their first dance as a duet instead.
Their day wasn’t “traditional.”
But it was filled with tenderness. Trust. Tears. Laughter. And pure joy.
And it’s one of the most meaningful galleries I’ve ever created. Because what mattered most wasn’t the look; it was the love. And when you lead with that, the images don’t just look good. They FEEL right.

You won’t be rushed.
You won’t be micromanaged.
You won’t be expected to perform.
You will be guided, held, seen, and celebrated, so that when you look back at your photos, you don’t just remember how it looked. You remember how it felt.
Before You Worry About Wedding Photos…
✨ You don’t have to have it all figured out.
Whether you’re still early in the planning process or you’ve already looked at a dozen photography websites, just know this:
You don’t have to be perfectly posed.
You don’t have to be photogenic.
You don’t have to pretend for the camera.
You just have to be you.
If that’s the kind of experience you’ve been hoping for, I’d love to connect.

Let’s talk about your day, your story, and what it would look like to feel fully seen in your wedding photos.
And even if we’re not the right fit, no hard feelings. Seriously, I hope you find someone who sees you as fully as you deserve to be seen.
