Rose was absolutely incredible—we can’t recommend her highly enough. Wedding photography was something we were not willing to compromise on, and we’re so grateful we found Rose.

From our initial meeting, where we aligned on expectations and the unique details of our day, to the pre-wedding walkthrough and the hundreds of stunning photos she captured on our wedding day, working with her was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We will absolutely be using Rose again for any future photography needs.

: the name of the easterly winds that come off the Indian Ocean in Kenya.

The name of my business is special to me because it’s a nod to my birthplace, Kenya. The easterly winds bring much-needed rains to the region, and I was born on such a morning in December.

This name is symbolic to my life, not only as a tribute to where I was born and my life of international travel, but it reflects the deep desire to observe the natural world around us, and cultivate the intention of adventure and mindfulness.

From the minute we made contact, Rose helped us create the most perfect day!

Rose was probably one of our best decisions ever (besides eloping in Iceland, of course). From the minute we made contact she helped us create the most perfect day! Her response time is incredible, she is the sweetest person, and we really feel like we got to know her. Our social media blew up when we posted our sneak peeks and we have had so many people compliment us on the photos. They are absolutely breathtaking and we are over the moon with them!

BEGIN YOUR EXPERIENCE

Before I ever pick up a camera, I get to know you. The couples I work with best are the ones I've spent real time with — not just a few emails, but genuine conversation. That trust is what allows me to document your day as it actually unfolds, rather than direct it.

Every love story looks different, and none needs to be edited to fit a mold. My work is to observe yours honestly — exactly as it is, in whatever form it takes — and to give you a wedding day that feels entirely, unmistakably your own.

BEGIN YOUR EXPERIENCE

The best moments of a wedding day are rarely the planned ones. My role is to notice them as they happen — the unguarded laughter, the quiet glance — and preserve them with the same honesty they were felt in.

I am, at heart, a deeply nostalgic person.

To me, photography is moments as art — not just something that happened, but something worth holding onto, and returning to, for as long as you live.
