About Esme Photography

Esme Photography

Owner Photographer

Not only do I have a great eye for the art, but whatever the task is at hand I am able to execute it… it’s my passion. Family and friends whom I have photographed in events say this is my “calling.” I love using natural light when possible and do not over process my pictures; natural is beautiful. I would love the opportunity to share your engagement and wedding day through my lenses. I bring a touch of photo journalism and an intimate approach to my clients that shines in my work. For weddings, I instinctively capture the event through the couple’s eyes. I shoot their story in a natural way.

But I’m also an artist, so it’s important to bring my aesthetic eye to the coverage. It’s about allowing a bride and groom to enjoy the easiest, greatest day of their life without having to stop them. I’m always anticipating what will happen next and positioning myself to be there capturing the moment in a very natural, candid way. When everything comes together, I deliver images that are timeless and when you look back, it’s as if you can relive your great moments.

    Chef/ Owner

    Working with Esme Photography as a vendor partner has been consistently excellent—they exceed expectations on every level. Their communication is prompt and stress-free, making collaboration seamless whether we're coordinating timelines or discussing event details. During portrait sessions, Esme's team gently guides couples and wedding parties with such calm professionalism that everyone stays relaxed and present, which genuinely makes a difference in the final images. What truly sets them apart is their eye for detail; they capture both the sweeping atmosphere and the subtle moments that make a day meaningful, showcasing every element in its best light. Esme and her team are always punctual and organized, reducing stress for everyone involved. I'd recommend them without hesitation to any couple looking for photographers who care as much about the experience as they do the final product.

    Captures every moment beautifully, every time.

    I’ve worked with Esme for many years, and her images never fail to capture the true essence of each day. There’s a natural, effortless quality to her work that preserves not just how everything looked, but how it felt in the moment. Every photograph tells a story, filled with genuine emotion and thoughtful detail, making it easy to relive those memories again and again. It’s a rare gift to consistently turn fleeting moments into something so timeless and meaningful.
