It's an honor that you are exploring my work! Let me begin by telling you a little bit about myself. I believe that us getting to know each other is the best way to ensure a fantastic experience, and I'm looking forward to learning more about you both as well!
- I'm a wife, mother, youngest daughter of three sisters, and aunt to twelve nieces and nephews.
- My happy places are the lake or the beach.
- I enjoy genuine connection and conversation, with quality time and acts of service being my two highest love languages.
- My friends and family describe me as steady, easy going, witty, and personable, and I think my photography reflects that!
I began Emily Green Creative with the mission to serve my clients with authentic care, attention to detail, and excellence in my craft. Photography is an artistry, a curation of moments that can be reflected on forever. Your wedding day deserves to be beautifully captured and I am thrilled to document the most intimate moments of life.

they value the beauty of covenant marriage and dream about their photos retelling the story of their day over and over again.
THEY CARE ABOUT their wedding vendors and their guests. and it's my honor to serve them throughout their engagement season, wedding day, and beyond.
The Process
I will set up a time to chat over the phone to walk through your vision in detail. Your wedding day is the beginning of your family legacy! I believe it is worth documenting the moments and curated details in a way that is genuine to your relationship.
I believe it is incredibly valuable for me to have a relationship with my clients. When my clients know and trust me, they are able to be completely comfortable in front of the lens. This helps create the caliber of images my clients desire and deserve.
We'll get to know each other in our consultation - I can't wait hear about your relationship and engagement!
The Consultation
After your wedding date is secured, we begin planning your engagement session. An engagement session is such an important asset. You get to know me even better while getting more comfortable in front of the camera. You get an idea of how I operate behind the camera before your big day. And of course, you have images to represent this fleeting and special season of your life.
The Engagement session details
I work hand-in-hand with your wedding planner to ensure each vendor is aware of the planning and execution necessary to ensure each detail is captured as efficiently as possible. The wedding day is a symphony of moving parts, and I work hard to make the day as stress-free and joyful for you as possible.
Next, I go into details mode
It's here! I capture your wedding day with the utmost care, joy, and appreciation for you, and soon you will receive your gallery.
My prayer is that upon seeing the photos, you are taken back to how you felt on your wedding day. This beautiful milestone preserved in a collection of imagery.
You'll remember the feelings forever

I include engagement sessions in my full day packages because I believe there is importance to an engagement session outside of the additional images you will have. They provide an opportunity for us to meet in person, you will get to interact with me as a photographer and see how I direct and pose, and you get another opportunity to get comfortable being photographed. Most couples have never been in front of a professional camera together when they show up for their engagement session! This will leave you feeling much more confident to jump right in on your wedding day with a camera present, allowing for more natural posing and less pressure on the timeline.
It also gives you more opportunities to showcase your personalities and style in a professional gallery of images. I love to make engagement sessions FUN and full of personality - your personalities! Bring your pets, incorporate your favorite date spots, and include fun accessories that reflect you... we make your engagement session a reflection of your relationship forever represented in your images - a nod to your prenuptial era.
Engagement sessions
questions?
For most wedding days, having a second photographer is absolutely necessary to capture everything you have worked so hard to plan. By having another photographer with me, we're able to capture more of how the day unfolds and be at two places at one time. Great examples include capturing you walking down the aisle as well as your groom's facial expression as you walk, more photos of your guests who have come to celebrate you, detailed photos of your venue setups and decor, and/or a timeline that provides ample time for photos of both sides of the wedding party. It is possible for me to capture your full day but the security and benefits of a second photographer are countless, which is why I include one in my full day packages!
DO I really need a second photographer?
I want you to know that if I am your wedding photographer, my mission is to provide as much assistance and wisdom to you in your wedding planning process as possible. Why? Because when you are confident in the work you've put into the details and at peace knowing you have planned out the day well, you will be so much more relaxed and comfortable on your big day. This will naturally result in truly joyful energy for your photos.
Upon booking, I will send you a wedding handbook filled with recommendations, plan-aheads, and tips in order to equip you early in the planning process. Next, I check in regularly throughout the engagement season to provide encouragement, assistance, and update the timeline as needed. I will work with your wedding planner and other vendors to make sure they are aware of small details that make capturing your day so much smoother, taking your final images to a higher level.
In the weeks leading up to your wedding day, we will meet for a drink or chat over the phone/Zoom to finalize your timeline and go over any final checklist items so that when the day comes, we are as prepared as possible! I'm allll about the details and you'll see my organizational side come out in this way. Let me be a source of strength and comfort for you throughout your engagement and on the wedding day!
How much assistance do you provide during the engagement process?
My packages include (60) miles of travel for engagement and/or wedding day. We will go over all of the destination details for engagement session and wedding day on our consultation call in order to customize your investment. Rest assured, I want your investment to be as financially advantageous for you as possible if travel is required!
IS travel included?
The retainer is the initial investment required to secure your date (along with a signed contract). I require a 25% retainer to book your wedding date and full payment is due (7) days before your wedding day. If a payment plan would be helpful to you, be sure to mention it on our consultation call and I'm happy to make it work for you by breaking into installation payments (up to 4).
WHAT IS A RETAINER?
If the first thing you did was reach out to secure your wedding venue, you might have been surprised how far in advance bookings can be! As soon as you have secured your venue, I would reach out to me to check my availability for your date.
I also have tons of recommendations on other decisions to be made such as getting ready locations, ceremony time, prestigious and trustworthy vendors, etc. that can really shape how beautiful your photos turn out! The sooner I can provide my services, the better!
