What inspired you to start your business?

To pine: to yearn for someone or something
To forge: to create, to form with fire

Photography has always been a big part of my life — even if I wasn’t always the one holding the camera. From my mom taking a million photos of me and my siblings growing up to recently going through my grandparents house and finding a whole room full of boxes of photos and albums going back decades. The depth and importance of documenting personal family history is something will stay with me forever.

I launched into the wedding industry straight after college when I started working as creative director and designer for a bridal magazine. Pine & Forge came to life in 2017 and truly took off in 2019 when it became a full-time endeavor. It comes from a deeply sentimental place to be able photograph and film these magical, personal moments for my couples, while adoring the fine, intentional details.
