Hello There

I’ll guide you through the entire process

I’m Autumn, like the season. A Grand Rapids based photographer and videographer, I specialize in weddings and I love OCF! If you’re looking at this page, you’re probably considering me for your associate or second shooter. Well that’s fantastic, I am appreciative that you’re here. Now, I don’t want to waste any of your time, I know the life of a creative business owner is a busy one. So, let’s get to it!

About My Work:


I’ve been professionally photographing weddings for over a decade; my first paid wedding was in 2011. Being a lifelong learner is important, so I frequently attend classes and workshops to improve my skills and learn new trends and styles. I love being behind the camera in all capacities. To expand my skills and continue learning, I made the leap into videography. I have been shooting video for 2 years and I must say that I love it as much as photography. As a hybrid photo/video shooter, I now feel like my creative capabilities are endless!

Being a personality chameleon, I tend to blend in with just about any group of people. Wedding guests, Brides, Grooms and party members all usually enjoy my presence. I can wrangle all the party members and keep timelines running without being rude. You can always trust this detail queen to grab the detail shots you need to fill up that gallery. From the venue, ceremony space, reception room, cake/desserts, decor and more, I’ve got it covered! When I am not getting details, I’m happy to take my own lead or follow your instructions for assignments. I love to capture both candid and posed moments. I’ll even grab some killer BTS shots of you too! I work well independently using my best judgement and situational awareness. As an associate shooter, I am capable of delegating work to the second shooter with kindness, I am a tremendous team player.

I’m well versed in every venue and lighting scenario. From full sun at the lake to dark wooden barns, poorly lit ballrooms to glass-glared greenhouses. I’ve seen it all and gave kick-ass outcomes regardless of the setting! I am skilled in both on camera and off camera flash, and I am ready for any situation.


Here’s a list of my gear:

Sony A7iii (x2) *mirrorless, full frame, dual cards 

35mm f/1.8

85mm f/1.8

Godox AD200pro (4)

Godox AD-B2 (2)

My shooting style leaves exposure and color as true to life as possible, which makes me a very versatile second shooter. My work can be edited for Light and Airy, True to Life or Dark and Moody (please see examples below)
