About

I am an experienced wedding and portrait photographer. I love weddings! It is my job to reduce the stress of your day, not add to it.
I try to tell the story of your day with pictures, capturing the emotion of the event. I shoot with a mixture of photojournalistic and formal styles
so that you can get the images that you need.

Tips and Advice
Wear comfortable shoes.
You can send me link of images or poses that you would like to duplicate. I won't guarantee that we will get them all
but I will do my best. Communicate your needs and expectations clearly to your photographer. If you can't communicate with your photographer, don't hire them.
Everything takes longer than you think it will. Allow extra time. I have never been to a wedding that started 'on time'.
If you allowed 1 hour for formal shots, you may end up with only 15 minutes. Plan you day accordingly.
Have someone who knows the area who can run errands, that doesn't have to be in the wedding pictures. Someone has always left
something back at the house or you forgot to buy something that you need.
