About Thistle & Dagger Photography
Thistle & Dagger Photography
Hi, I’m Emily! I’m a wedding photographer for the wildly in love, the offbeat romantics, and the couples who value a good laugh as much as a good love story. My style? Vibrant, true-to-color images that feel as timeless as your favorite song and as honest as your vows. I edit with intention – keeping skin tones real, colors rich, and moments full of life.
Eccentric in the best way, I bring easygoing energy (and maybe a slightly weird sense of humor) to every wedding day. I’m here to document the big moments, the in-betweens, and all the glorious chaos in between with a classic touch and a creative twist. Based wherever love takes me, and always down for an adventure – let’s make some magic.

Emily is magic, don’t miss her!
I’ve had multiple shoots with Emily! She is fantastic at communication First off and always tries to make things work. Our shoots are always incredibly fun and the final product is just gorgeous. I still look back on our photos together with such awe!

Creative Vision Aquired
Emily has taken several photo sets for me throughout several stages of my life. She's taken anniversary photos, infant photos, and I've even done a best friend photo shoot. She's made me feel very confident, comfortable, and the photos have always been phenomenal memories and keepsakes. 10/10 would recommend!

Fantasy Shoot
I worked with Thistle & Dagger a little while ago on a fantasy elf shoot. Emily is did a fantastic job making me feel confident in my skin, especially because I was nervous as it was something I hadn’t done before. There were a lot of laughs and a lot of jokes. She literally made this entire shoot a fun, confident-inducing shoot. I plan to do more with her in the future.

epitome of professionalism and quality
Emily is the epitome of professionalism and quality! We’re an AV company and working with other vendors makes a huge impact on the overall experience and it was such a pleasure working with Emily. She’s on top of everything and has such a refreshing style to her work. The pictures from the event were out of this world. Hope the perspective from another event vendor means something but I will be recommending her to any of our clients 100%.

A photographer you’ll keep coming back too!
We first hired Emily for our engagement party about six years ago, and she absolutely blew us away. The photos were stunning! Full of life, emotion, and beautifully captured moments. I still look back at them all the time. When I hired someone else for my baby shower, it was a huge regret. The photos didn’t come close to what I had hoped for. I couldn’t stop thinking about how incredible Emily had been, so six years later, I reached out to her again for our maternity shoot… and she nailed it once again. She has a true gift, not just for photography, but for making people feel completely at ease in front of the camera. My husband and I are both naturally awkward when it comes to photos, but Emily somehow brings out the most genuine version of us. She’s hilarious, down to earth, and has this incredible ability to make the entire experience feel fun and effortless. What could’ve been an uncomfortable, stiff shoot turned into one of our favorite memories. I will truly never go to anyone else for photos. Emily is a 10/10, every single time!
