Weddings

Your wedding day is not a photoshoot. It’s your people in one room, your mom fixing your dress, and the way your partner looks at you when you aren’t paying attention. I’m there for the in-between moments just as much as the big ones. 

I’ll guide you when you need direction and step back when the moment deserves space. My goal is simple: when you look back at your photos years from now, I want you to remember exactly how it felt not just how it looked. 

If that matters to you too, we’ll be a great fit.

Love Notes

    Jayden Manthe

  • Sydney stepped in and saved the day.

    When our photographer fell through, she created a beautiful album for us within 24 hours. Her work was more than we could have ever dreamed of and allowed us to relive our wedding day with joy. She is worth every penny.

  • Absolute magic.

    She made me feel beautiful and comfortable from start to finish. She accommodated every vision I had and handled everything effortlessly. Your only problem with Aesthete Pix won’t be liking the photos, it’ll be choosing your favorites.
