A sentiment as rich and nostalgic as flipping through your grandmother's cherished photo album. A storytelling style ensures that your collection of photographs becomes a living, breathing testament to your journey. With each carefully curated photograph, you're investing in more than just a moment frozen in time. You are preserving the emotions, the laughter, the shared glances, and the unfolding chapters of your story. This investment transcends a legacy like a treasured family album that will be passed down through generations. A timeless window into the love and beauty of that moment in time and your unique love.

WHY BOOK STARR
Starr's focus is on your unique CONNECTION AND STORY
Paragraph
On your most iconic day, Starr's commitment is to document the unfolding moments with timeless authenticity.
Every wedding is a unique love story, documented with care and a highly creative attentive eye. Tender, loving gestures and real emotions are wrapped into beautiful imagery to cherish for life.
Clients feel like long-time friends and boast they almost
immediately form an instant connection with Starr as she deeply appreciate all relationships and lets her storytelling photography unravel around it.
This isn’t just about freezing time; it’s about crafting a timeless story that transcends generations, ensuring the beauty of your love and the ambiance of this day are preserved--a visual legacy that speaks to the heart and soul of your remarkable journey.
Establishing honest connections with my couples is not just a professional priority but a deeply personal one. Prior to the big day, I invest time in learning about your unique love story, preferences, and the elements that make your connection special. This knowledge enables me to guide you seamlessly through the entire photography process, offering gentle direction while ensuring you feel entirely at ease.
My aim is not only to capture beautiful photographs but to enhance your overall experience by providing support, guidance, and a calming presence. I want you to fully immerse yourselves in the joy of the moment, confident that I am there to document the magic while you savor every precious second of your wedding day.

WHAT TO EXPECT
The Experience
My photography style is a blend of warmth, softness, and a muted color palette that collectively creates a visual narrative of timeless elegance. The deliberate use of gentle lighting enhances every frame, casting a soft glow that adds a touch of intimacy to the captured moments. Embracing a classic, understated aesthetic, I seek to convey the essence of each scene without unnecessary embellishments, allowing the inherent beauty to speak for itself.
The muted color palette lends a sense of tranquility to the photographs, creating a cohesive and harmonious collection that stands the test of time. It's an approach that goes beyond trends, focusing on a timeless visual language that captures the emotions and details in a way that feels both authentic and enduring. In each photograph, I aim to evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia, inviting viewers into a world where moments unfold with grace and sophistication.

One of my favourite parts, after you book, is your engagement session! This is the time where we plan an adventure and get to see how you love each other and fit together. I’ll teach you how to be comfortable and get those casual amazing images I know you are looking forward to showing off. Have a fiancee who ‘hates having their picture taken’, not to worry, in no time the nerves will diminish and it will feel like we’re just hangin’ out. After your engagement session, you’ll be featured on my SMP Blog and will be sent your online gallery of images to download and share as you wish.

Once we’re 4 weeks away from your big day, we’ll start making sure we’re completely prepared and ready for your wedding! You’ll receive a questionnaire from me to pass on all the details of your special day. I’ll sketch a timeline for you that will make your day flow well and get you the images you’ve dreamed of. After 9 years of photographing weddings in a magazine-quality manner, I know how to create the perfect timeline for a photography-friendly wedding day.

Our engagement photos were the first time we had ever had photos taken so we really didn’t know what to expect. We had so much fun on that day AND our wedding day. The locations Starr picked out made for great backgrounds and a variety of different looking photos without spending too much time traveling. We can’t wait to work with Starr again in the near future!
Starr has completely changed our value for photography.
MARSHALL + DANICA
We loved how Starr and her team fit in perfectly with our small group of family and friends...it felt like we knew them for years! Even seeing her a few weeks later at a friends wedding she gave us the same kindness and friendliness as when we got married. Starr and her team are just overall amazing - people, photographers, guests, and now
NEW FRIENDS!
She is extremely talented and has the best personality to match!

She got to know us and when it came to our big day she was a true professional. She spent the day with us and had a smile on her face the entire time. When she showed us some sneak peeks we were blown away with her talents! Thank you so much!
