MEET LINA

My work shouts your Love Story from rooftops, sometimes like a rock concert, sometimes like a lullaby, but either way working with an acute awareness of the experience of the present moment. This is a day you celebrate with all your heart, and let your love take up so much space it's practically the Milky Way. These pictures are a story about feeling every feeling that goes along with your day, and celebrating the humor and the love and the desperate joy of each second of your wild, vibrant life together.

Kind Words

We had the absolute best experience with Lina. She has the best energy and kept us energized and smiling throughout a long day. We told her we wanted to hike 11 miles roundtrip to an alpine lake in Colorado, starting at 4:30 am, and that there would be snow on the ground still and she was completely on board from the beginning. We eloped and wanted a super intimate day - Lina knew exactly when to give us space during our elopement. After the morning hike, we met friends and family for a backyard dinner. Lina is the best at wrangling families for photos and by the end of the day, we felt like she was part of our family! Her photos are beautiful - she captured our day in a way that felt like us and we'll treasure them forever.

JOE + JULIA

Lina is a phenomenal photographer and extremely professional as well as fun! She made the entire day about my husband and me and helped to keep me on track while still enjoying every moment. She was very timely about getting us our sneak peek and the memories are forever held in our hearts of and physically because of her hard work. I cannot recommend lina enough to other couples and individuals.

REBECCA + CONNOR

Working with Lina was an absolute dream! 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.

ISABELA + DUNCAN

Working with Lina was an an amazing experience! When she’s behind the camera, she’s totally in her element. We felt so comfortable taking her along on our special day and are absolutely thrilled with the unique way she captured our love.

Every time there’s a first look with a bridal party, whether I’m the photographer or whether I’m a bridesmaid myself, it always makes me tear up. We talk about your wedding like it’s all about you and your partner, and it is,

Wedding party pre-ceremony tailgate 🤍 I love the in-between moments on a wedding day. Right before a ceremony, in the car on the way to somewhere, just before a grand entrance, just after a toast…you’ll always remember the standout mom
