Capturing your day with a fineart style and photojournalistic approach...

“I am so glad that we have all of your wonderful pictures from the wedding.  I don’t know how you got some of those shots.  I don’t remember seeing you at the ceremony snapping all these photos.  You’re so good, and everyone’s raving about your work and how happy and wonderful we look because of you.  Thank you endlessly for helping to make our wedding so awesome.”        Michelle and Mike

“Thank you so much for doing such an outstanding job with the photography at our wedding.  The album is absolutely beautiful and your pictures are incredible.  We so appreciate your ability to work with children, families and others.  Your friendly personality and professionalism were wonderful!  We are so pleased with how everything turned out.  We would highly recommend you to anyone needing a professional photographer.”        Tricia and Sean

“Thank you so much for being a part of our wedding day celebration.  I can’t tell you how much we love our wedding photos!  You did such a fantastic job.  Thank you for your professionalism and going the extra mile for us.  We really appreciated having you there.  Thank you for your patience and all around wonderful personality.  It made such a difference and really made our day so much more enjoyable.  You were by far our most favorite vendor!  You seemed like more of a friend than a vendor, to be quite honest.  Thank you so much for all of your dedication, support and fantastic work.  We will cherish our photos and will appreciate you whenever we see them.”        Nancy and Sam

Additional Questions and Answers



Do you shoot digital or film?


I shoot both and I have packages that include both.  I started out shooting weddings with film and then switched to digital.  Digital is great because you can shoot all in color and then change any image to black and white.  With film you have to either commit to black and white or color film.  I love both, digital is fast and allows a photographer to shoot a lot more images, but film still has a special feel and you do get negatives over a CD.

Can I customize a package?

Absolutely, I encourage it.  No wedding is the same and no person is the same, therefore no package is the same.

Can I get the CD/negatives of my wedding image?

Yes, they are your wedding images! Why do I want to keep them from you!

Do you charge to travel?

Yes, but if you buy me a ticket to Fiji we can possibly negotiate :)

How long have you been shooting weddings and how many have you shot?

I have been shooting weddings for 6 years and have shot over 100 weddings.

What happens if you get sick on the day of the wedding?

Most likely I would power through it, but if it were serious I have a good connection with many great photographers who could cover for me.

Do you bring an assistant?


I have packages that include a 2nd shooter, I recommend this for large weddings and weddings that run longer than 4hrs.

How many breaks do you take through out the day?

There are no breaks when I am shooting a wedding, once you stop focusing on the event you miss "the shot" of the night.  I am usually afraid to use the restroom!

How soon after the event will the images be online?


A week after your wedding your images will be available online.
