Neil & Nicole
Hi Nicole & Neil!
It was great to meet you, and I'm so excited to explore working together for your wedding weekend. You're both so warm and kind and I love how you care about a candid approach to your photography that prioritizes everyone else's experience of your wedding as well as your own. I'm confident that we can capture the story of the weekend in a way that makes you feel seen and celebrated, and give you images that will bring you back to your favorite moments for all the days to come.
My main priority as your photographer goes beyond just taking amazing images of your day. My goal is to make sure that you feel supported 100% of the time. I dive headfirst into this process with you, and I take great pride in what I do. I want to make sure that you feel like I can be a resource and friend throughout the wedding planning period, and on the day itself. Because it's about great pictures, yes, but it's also about making sure you have the greatest wedding experience possible!
Let's jump in!

Documentary Fine-Art Wedding Photography
This is more than just photography.
It is an investment that prioritizes and preserves your moments for generations to come.
This is delicious, honest, moment-driven wedding photography that feels alive.
— Isabela + Duncan
I don’t know how she does it, but she captured moments we didn’t even know she was watching beautifully and seamlessly made the magic of the day shine through. I’m so grateful we had the privilege of working with Lina and her warmth, kindness, originality, and talent.
"Working with Lina was an absolute dream."
As a hybrid wedding photographer, you receive a mixture of high-quality, digital, creative imagery in a true-to-color editing style and candid, wildly artistic film scans that break all the rules of a "perfect" photograph. This approach to image-making captures all the big and small moments that make up your celebration, turning every perfectly imperfect moment into art that you can look back on for life.
Film & Digital Photography
With nearly 15 years as a professional photographer and experience capturing all types of love stories all over the world, everything: from thoughtful touches and an acute attention to detail, to the technical expertise you receive when we work together, is unparalleled. Working together is a true experience designed to celebrate and support you every step of the way.
Luxury Experience
With an MFA in Photography and a photojournalistic approach, the photos we capture are more than just images: they're mini celebrations, crafted intentionally to bring you back to every second of your wedding day as vibrantly and fiercely as it was lived in the moment.
I use a mixture of digital and film to tell the story of your day.
