Why you should love your photographer...
On your wedding day you will be spending about 85-90% of your entire day with your photographer by your side. They will be guiding you through every step of the day! You want someone there you trust, who is organized, and who you can have fun with!
When you love your photographer and get along with them really well you can let your guard down around them. You can crack silly jokes and laugh and have fun! In doing so, you end up with not only amazing and genuine photos, but you'll have an even better experience!
When you've taken the time to get to know the person photographing you, they will know and understand your specific needs and wants. They will know the best way to capture you and bring out your best smiles, laughs, and natural emotions. Plus who doesn't love making new friends?!
About me
I am a natural light wedding photographer from the Pacific Northwest. I love to travel as much as I love sitting at home binge watching FRIENDS, Parks and Rec, or the Big Bang Theory with a chai latte in my hand! I fully believe in building relationships! It's so important to get to know who you're working with. You should feel comfortable around them so you can really be yourself. Get to know more about me and see if we would be a good fit!
I love building relationships with the sweet people I get to work with. Connecting is key to ensure an amazing experience! I also love bonding over the same shows!
If you believe:
It’s always appropriate to carry emergency s'more rations in your car…..
Feeling comfortable with the person behind the camera is key to reducing your nerves and fully enjoying your wedding day (that’s where I come in!)…..
You are a beautiful, talented, brilliant, powerful musk ox…..
Then you should reach out so we can start becoming best friends already!
MY FAVORITE THINGS
Hey there! I'm Joni
VIEW MY
I have two fur babies! We adopted our adult cat, Charlie, from our local humane society a few years ago.. He is the sweetest and cuddliest kitty! But our newest family addition is little miss Molly here! She's a Cavapoo, part Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and part poodile! We absolutely ADORE her!
MY fur babiES
"Joni,
WOW! Just wow! We cannot thank you enough for being a huge part of our special day. Not only are the photos PERFECT, but all the sweet gifts and gestures from you have left us speechless. We are so dang lucky you were our photographer.
Thank you again for everything!
We love you."
~ Trevor and Gabrielle Peterson
"I cannot even begin to tell you all how amazing Joni is. My husband and I had never met her but drove 3 hours to do a photo shoot with her! I was so nervous! Beyond nervous! But Joni changed all that immediately the second we met her! She’s so fun and spunky!! She made us feel so relaxed, and our pictures make me cry! She perfectly captured our love and happiness and they are my favorite pictures we’ve ever had!"
~ Breanne Close
"Joni's work is amazing, she knows how to get you to smile, laugh, and just be yourself at times when it would be so easy to be tense and worried. The tools she provides to her brides are beyond helpful - I took them and used them to help create our wedding day timeline, and she was amazing at helping us get all the shots we wanted, plus some we had no idea we'd end up loving!
If you want someone who will more than likely become a friend, Joni is your gal!"
~ Shana Barker
"Joni was the heart of my vendor team and her
talents speak for themselves. When she showed up on my wedding day, I almost cried with relief. She gave my husband and I breathing room to enjoy each other when the whole world wanted our attention and captured it beautifully.
Our photos will last a life time and I couldn't be more pleased.
Joni, I'll hike down to a waterfall in my wedding dress with you any day."
~ Rio May
