Your wedding photos
are a chance to go
back in time …
- Won’t judge you because they get it
- Lets you be who you are & can capture the silly & romantic moments
- Understands you enough to take pictures that represent you
- Believes that your story has meaning and depth that is different than anyone else’s
But you’ve never liked taking photos. Maybe you’ve felt awkward, & uncomfortable. Plus, you don’t want to spend the wedding day thinking, “ah, no, I got to go take pictures,” because those wedding poses from the 90s aren’t going to cut it.

You need a wedding photographer who:
- Won’t judge you because they get it
- Lets you be who you are & can capture the silly & romantic moments
- Understands you enough to take pictures that represent you
- Believes that your story has meaning and depth that is different than anyone else’s
Let 's tell that story together...
Where raw happiness & candid moments are cherished for decades.
About the photographer
At the end of the day, my job isn’t just photographing your day. It’s helping you see that those little things, those moments, are actually the big things you want to remember.
Like your father getting misty-eyed while walking you down the aisle.
Or your partner brushing your hair to the side during the first dance.
Or that time your mom was begging you to eat something, anything, besides cake.
I know that you want help with the finer or large details of the wedding day; like organizing timelines & guidance on the flow of the wedding day.
But what you need is the validation that you are on the right path; that you’re doing a great job being your silly, compassionate, against-the-grain self.
At the end of the day, we’re talking about candid moments & actions that can, quite literally, tell a story–without needing any words.
Because it’s not just you looking back at that time, it’s your kids & their kids, coming up with their own stories about that day, without any context, just knowing, feeling that love shared between two people.

Our Core Values
Have I mentioned that my #1 goal is to make sure that this is the best time ever! I work hard to be accommodating to feedback, communicative, responsive, and overdeliver. So you’ll have nothing to worry about when working with me.
WEDDINGS ARE NOTORIOUS FOR BEING WASTEFUL, THAT’S WHY MAKING A DIFFERENCE AS A VENDOR IN THIS INDUSTRY IS IMPORTANT. YOUR DAY SHOULD BE ONE FILLED WITH AS MUCH JOY AND LOVE AS POSSIBLE, AND IF THAT MEANS YOU CAN TAKE COMFORT IN KNOWING YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT IS MADE SMALLER BY MY EFFORTS, ALL THE BETTER!
COMMUNITY DRIVEN
Knowing your day is also supporting a cause - a cause you choose - is a win-win. When those wedding bells ring, so does the community’s!
Any skilled photographer can capture posed, special moments, but anticipating candid once-in-a-lifetime memories is something entirely different. Your story will be told with purpose and soul, from the first time I meet you, to editing and the communication in between, to final delivery.
My grandparents were the "poster couples" for old love stories. My papa woke up every morning singing and whistling the same special tune to my nana, and my grandpa would always love playing silly little tricks on my grandma that would make her go, "Oh, BLAINE!"
Two special, timeless, and unique love stories that I never get sick of learning more about. Both of their love stories can be told through photographs. Endless. Photographs. Each and every photograph is cherished many years later, with each other and the family that comes after them.

Hours would pass by the time I realized that I had been sitting on the living room floor flipping, sorting, discovering, and reliving old family memories—photograph by photograph.
Memories that had years beyond them, yet relived by a single photograph however many times I wished to look at it. Photographs of my great-grandparents before they moved from Italy, and of my grandparents wedding day. And, of course, every year of my siblings and my existence thanks to my parents.
These memories I will take with me for my lifetime, and a lesson of how precious it is to be one to document these moments for others to do the same.
From capturing the small moments that you didn’t even know were happening to being an open book for any questions you have or concerns for your day. I'm here to be your soundboard. So you never feel as though I am doing a service to YOU, but rather that I am grateful & honored to be by your side.
It started off in my free time, when I found myself entranced by my grandparents' photographs—their story that I feel even closer to by the mere existence of these memoirs.
Hi, friends!! I'm sydney kerbyson
"After looking at what seemed like endless photographer choices, we found Sydney's work & knew instantly that she was different…she was effortlessly guiding us. In addition to being magnetic & responsive she's an incredible artist. I will never tire of looking at her photos - she captured every detail & emotion from our wedding & I'm just still in awe when I look at our photos.
She made the whole process smooth & enjoyable. My fiancé & I are not the most photogenic & can be quite awkward in front of the camera but Sydney made us feel so relaxed & comfortable…As a woman who has self-esteem issues, her pictures made me feel beautiful." — Kelly A.
