About

I believe it is important to get to know your photographer, I enjoy spending time getting to know you and all the details of your wedding day. That is why I offer consolations and engagement sessions with all my package.  I work with each couple to create a package that will be best suited for what their wedding day is all about, it’s your wedding, lets make it unforgettable!

Our passion at LMP is combining stylistic elements of Fine Art and Photojournalism in Wedding Photography. Shooting unobtrusively, we will record each moment as it happens while still paying close attention to every detail. Getting to know each client personally is very important to me. I feel that it creates a more natural and comfortable environment; I like to spend time getting to know every bride and groom before the “big day”. Engagement sessions, and on site consultations are very important parts of my wedding photography packages. Creating a friendship will allow more natural pictures to be taken on your wedding day. Your photographer will be with you almost the whole wedding day, they should be someone who fits your style, personality and makes you feel at ease. Every wedding is different, and the needs of every couple are special. We will work exclusively with you to create a personalized package, designed to fit seamlessly into all the wedding day plans. The results are a personalized set of honest and rewarding photographs, capturing the essence of your day. Your wedding day is all about you - we are there to chronicle the joy and happiness of the special moments and events. When you get your photographs, I want you to think, I don’t remember that ever photograph ever being taken!
