Your Photographer

Hi, my name is Jo! I am so excited that you are here! I would love to share some fun things about myself with you! I grew up on the East Coast in Western Massachusetts. Once I graduated high school, I moved to the Netherlands for 5 months, then moved to Idaho to study Humanities. It is here in Idaho that I met my forever best friend, Adam, and where we will continue to live for the next few years finishing school!

I love to do many different things, but my biggest passions are found in any form of art, thrifting, hiking, camping, and recently, cooking delicious meals for my little family. My husband and I got married on August 13th, 2025, in Bountiful, Utah. Planning our wedding was so stressful as we spent our entire engagement in a long-distance relationship. As your photographer, I know it is stressful, so I will do everything in my power to keep you as stress-free as possible about your wedding photos.

“I believe that real, unscripted love is the most beautiful thing on Earth, and it deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt. To prove that the quiet, natural moments are more powerful than the posed ones. To ensure that no matter how much time passes, the feeling of 'now' is never forgotten."
