Emma Savoie

I’m one of eight kids, & someone who loves being outside all the time. A hiker, rock climber, & avid tea drinker. An artist first, lawyer second. And probably most relevant to you — a destination wedding photographer, traveler, and storyteller with a love for documenting life as it genuinely unfolds.

Connection, Movement, and Honest Emotion.

Everyone feels awkward in front of a camera. If you're in agreement, just know that I feel the exact same way. Someone points a camera at me - I start making faces, my posture changes... who knows what might happen! I consistently find that what sets me apart as a photographer is my direction.

When it comes to "posing," I will give you something to do, like a movie scene. Direction is like a dialogue; we will talk back and forth and I will encourage moments during our session. You will always have something to do or a conversation prompt: think of it as if I am your host on a fun date... or a romcom film director and you're the main characters!

Direction > Posing

In a world saturated with technology, photos of our most precious moments should not be tailored to a faceless audience. I rely on a foundation of color theory from years of artwork to design a preset for each wedding, based on its location, color scheme, & natural lighting. No photo gallery looks alike. No set filter for every photo. My goal is for each image to be a piece of art.
