About

It is no secret I am a helpless romantic. I live for the happily ever after. I adore hearing couples stories of how the met, fell in love and plan their special day that joins two lives together. No two stories are the same and no two weddings will be the same. For this reason, I really like to get to know my couples throughout the entire process. Typically I like to meet with my couples about 5-6 times throughout the wedding process. This helps me learn a little more about them and their style allowing me to make their wedding photos extra special.

Wedding Day Perfection!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Joy and her team! From our engagement shoot, we were blown away by her amazing work and her ability to help us relax and pose naturally for photos. She is such a pleasure to work with and made us feel comfortable right away. Her photos are absolutely stunning! Our wedding day was perfect, and Joy was a huge part of that. She is incredibly organized, thoughtful, and talented. Joy captured so many special moments perfectly. The pictures from our special day went far beyond our expectations and will be cherished for the rest of our lives. Choosing Joy was the absolute best decision we made for our wedding day!

Talented, organized, patient, and kind.

Where do I even begin! Joy is absolutely amazing! She is not only incredibly talented, but she is also the sweetest person! Joy captured our day with stunning photos that we will cherish forever. She is organized, patient, direct, creative — all the qualities you need in your wedding photographer! Joy’s talent is noticed by more than just us as the bride and groom — hearing from our friends and families post-wedding, the number one comment is how amazing our photographer was. I honestly have a million nice things to say about Joy, but it’s all summed up by saying YOU NEED JOY AS YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER! Wedding planning is stressful and dealing with vendors can be frustrating. Joy was one of our vendors we could trust completely and she DELIVERED. Highly, highly recommend!

Dream wedding photographer!!!

We met Joy back in 2019 when we first got engaged and INSTANTLY knew she was the perfect photographer for us. Not only is she the sweetest, but her work is absolutely gorgeous. She showed us a wedding album from beginning to end and we fell in love and booked her the next day. Joy was one of the best decisions of our wedding. From engagement pictures, to postponed weddings, to finally celebrating two years later, Joy was like half photographer/half best friend to help plan our day. She’s very professional and can command a room (which was necessary with a bridal party like ours), but also makes the whole experience comfortable and fun for everyone. We have gotten so many compliments from our family and friends on our BEAUTIFUL pictures, as well as how organized and on top of it Joy and her team are (her husband is a fantastic assistant too!). We can’t wait to continue working with Joy for years to come!
