Weddings

Congrats! From picking your date to agreeing on your signature drink there are so many things to consider for your wedding day. Photography should be a fun one and I’m happy to answer any and all questions wedding related - even if they aren’t about photography! If you’re hoping to look back on your photos and really feel the day (all the feelings big and small) you’ve come to the right place.

Portraits

If you are ready for some off the beaten path engagement photos, new headshots or a BFF shoot I will work with you to find the best location for our session, all while keeping you cool, calm and collected.

Family

From posed and pretty to a day in the life I love family photos and take on a few every year. As a former dancer and circus artist and I have quite a few tricks to keep the kids laughing and helping you all feel at ease for these fun sessions.

Reviews

“Rollins was amazing leading up to and on our wedding day! She worked so graciously with our schedule and location! Was there early, great communication leading up to it, and the day of pictures were so fun to take! It just felt like we were walking around having fun with a friend! The pictures were more gorgeous than we could have hoped and I would recommend her to everyone!!”

“Rollins is an absolute GEM of a human and photographer. Half our wedding photos are just us laughing because we had such a great time with her, and of course that made for really great pictures! We told her about our insecurities right off the bat and she did an amazing job hiding those or helping us fix them throughout the day. I still can't believe that we get to *keep* these *amazing* photos for life. We'll treasure them forever.”

- Claire + Amber

“Rollins has the rare ability to both capture the real moments while also being someone that would be invited to your wedding if they weren’t shooting it. One of the kindest souls I know, she was so easy to work with. She is encouraging, plays to your strengths, and can be as in the shadows or up in your face as you desire.“
