All of these moments, and more,

are what life is really about.

 

Those fleeting glimmers you wish you could save in a bottle to drink up when you need it most. That’s what I’m here to give you…images that portray what a memory feels like.

Do you want your wedding to feel like your wedding day

 

and not a neverending photoshoot?

I’m here to show you that when we let go of the forced smiles, the mile long shot lists and the pinterest boards of trends that don’t align, something special starts to happen. You begin to become yourselves. Fully present and connected. And holy moly.. how beautiful you are.

Together we’ll take your wedding day vision and tell the story of you and your day, honestly and artfully. Because there is beauty around every corner when we allow ourselves to slow down and see it.

P.S.

Yes, I will tell you
what to do with your hands if
you need it, Ricky Bobby.

A bit about Aja

After moving to the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains,

 
 

I began to feel at home. Finding beauty and comfort in the stillness and everyday moments I had once taken for granted. A feeling of peace I had never known. Pairing this newfound peace, the intention + stillness I start every day with, and a bit of a nostalgic feel from my childhood, my documentary-meets-editorial style of photography was born.

Xoxo, Aja
