BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHS ARE ONLY PART OF IT. 
Your wedding shouldn’t feel like one long photo shoot. With more than a decade of experience photographing weddings, I know when to step in, when to give direction and when to let a moment unfold on its own. I pay attention to the light, the timeline, the people and everything happening around you so you don’t have to. The result is an experience that feels easy and photographs that feel like you.

EXPERT DIRECTION. NOTHING FORCED.
You don’t need to know what to do in front of the camera. I’ll guide you into beautiful light, give you direction when you need it and make the small adjustments that make a photograph feel polished without making it feel overly posed. Then I’ll give you room to be yourselves. It’s how I create a mix of elevated portraits, genuine interaction and the in-between moments you couldn’t plan if you tried.

THE WORK HAPPENS BEFORE THE WEDDING.
A seamless wedding day doesn’t happen by accident. Before yours, I’m thinking through the timeline, portrait locations, family photographs, lighting and logistics. I work closely with your planner and vendor team so we’re prepared before the day ever begins. And when something changes because something always does, I adjust. You shouldn’t be managing the photography on your wedding day. That’s my job.

I’M WATCHING FOR MORE THAN THE OBVIOUS. Of course I’ll photograph the first kiss and the first dance. I’m also watching your dad when he sees you. Your friends at the edge of the dance floor. The hand squeeze during the ceremony. The room before the doors open. The people you love when they don’t realize anyone is watching.Those are often the photographs that become more important with time.

MODERN. ELEVATED. TRUE TO LIFE.
I want your photographs to be beautiful without turning your wedding into something it wasn’t. Skin should look like skin. Candlelight should feel warm. The sky should still be blue. My work combines an editorial eye with honest color and genuine moments—photographs that feel polished now and still feel like your wedding years from now.

YOU GET TO BE AT YOUR WEDDING.
Be with your people. Drink all the champagne. Go to cocktail hour. Dance. Soak it all in.
