You can call me Em though. Emily makes me feel like I’m back living with my parents and I just got in trouble for something completely stupid (but probably practical, who knows). 

I am so incredibly serious when I say that I live for naps. I don’t nap all the time, but I at least need a little snoozer in my day at some point. I have my own personal zoo in my household. A husband, my daughter, 2 german shepherds and a cat. It's chaotic most times, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Fall is my favorite season (even though it feels like the shortest season EVER). Give me all of the best sitcoms and throw in some SUPER cheesy movies. My TBR list is through the roof, but I need something to read in my spare time so I like to have options. We're doing all the things, and it's amazing.


Hey! Hi! Hello! I'm Emily.

I have made so many amazing friends throughout my time as a photographer and I wouldn’t trade that for the world. Seriously, one of my closest friends I met because I needed her to model for me and now here we are, her being an Auntie to my little girl. 

I am told, often, that I am very loud and outgoing. I tell bad jokes and usually make people laugh. I am the type to definitely dance with you on your wedding day or run around with your kiddos during our family photoshoot. Don’t worry, my goal when working together is that you and your family leave feeling so loved and cherished throughout the entire process. Before AND after our time together. I will be your personal shadow and hype woman, and we will have the BEST time. 

My top priority is making my clients feel like we are those friends that don’t necessarily talk every day, but when we get together, we pick back up right where we left off.

"There truly aren’t enough words to describe how amazing Emily is! She was our wedding photographer and quickly became a friend - she makes the whole process SO fun and the pictures she takes are phenomenal. If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!! She’s incredible!"

"Hildegard Photography is such a joy to work with. Emily has such a can-do attitude, and can make your vision come to life. She will make sure you have everything you need and she was the one vendor that we did not have to stress about! LOVE HER. 11/10 would recommend to book. And we've decided she'll basically be our family photographer for the rest of her career :)"
