learn about WORKING TOGETHER

For couples who want to feel fully seen, fully supported, and fully present on their wedding day.

My approach is designed to let you live it all—without distraction or performance, only thoughtful guidance.

With a calm presence and a refined documentary style, I’ll photograph your day as it naturally unfolds—so that when you return to your photographs, you’re not just looking back—you’re stepping back into it.

TURNING MOMENTS INTO artful,
emotionally resonant imagery.

An artful & refined WEDDING photography experience designed to help you slow down and feel it all.

your wedding photography journey

INQUIRE ABOUT YOUR DATE

The Whitney Rae experience is rooted in artful, emotionally resonant imagery—created for couples who value presence, connection, and a celebration that feels entirely their own.

Seamlessly integrated with your creative team and loved ones—
we’ll move with intention and ease, documenting each thoughtfully curated detail, catching in-between moments and natural, unscripted emotion—preserving the story of your day just as it was, effortlessly and artfully.

Guided without pressure. Supported without overwhelm. 
You’ll receive timeline insight, planning support, and space to ask anything. My role is to offer clarity and confidence, not add to your to-do list.

Intentional, easy, and personal from the start.
Once I receive your inquiry, we’ll schedule a relaxed conversation to connect—where I’ll learn more about your story, what matters most to you, and how you want your day to feel.
From there, I’ll curate a wedding photography collection just for you—whether you're planning a Colorado mountain celebration or a destination event. No guesswork, no one-size-fits-all approach.
