In college I had a roommate who was a photographer, and watching her edit photos of this gorgeous dress that blended from white to blue at the ends, I thought "I would love to do that" and we did!

The past 8 years have been the biggest gift you could ever give me. They've been filled with growing, learning, mistakes, wins, and so many things in between that I owe so much of who I am to. Thank you for your love, support, and trust always!

When I'm not taking photos, you can find me reading, running, lifting, crafting, spending time with Ian, or somewhere outdoors.

Hi, I'm arielle

About

– Me!

"Never once has there been a photo I've regretted taking; if anything I've wished for more."

If the world were ending the 2 things I'm grabbing are my dog Charlie, and my photo books. Never once has there been a photo I've regretted taking; if anything I've wished for more.

The way I always have a foot touching him when we're on the couch, or that he remembers to leave ice out of my cup unless it has a straw, or how he makes those eyes at me that still makes me melt into a puddle. The longer I've been doing this, the more important it has become to make sure that these moments are immortalized, for my love story and especially yours.

This is the stuff they write about in books and we actually have the tools to capture it? That's magic.

you really can't make this stuff up.
