I started as a street photographer, and I bring that same eye to weddings — always looking for real moments full of energy or emotion, the kind that instantly take you back and help you remember the places you visit and people you meet.

The epic, frame-worthy portraits matter — but so do the in-between moments. The quiet ones, the laughs, the glances — the stuff that makes the day feel real when you look back at it. I like taking those pictures also.

My style blends both. Creative, emotive, clean, and candid. I approach every wedding like a personal project, not a formula. Each couple is different, and that’s what keeps me inspired — finding what’s unique about your day and telling that story through images.

If you’re not into posing, that’s totally fine. Most people aren’t. I’ll guide you just enough to feel confident, but keep things looking natural and unposed — like yourself, on a good day, with great light.

Speaking of light — I love working with natural light (nothing beats a golden sunset), but I don’t rely on it. I know how to use flash well. Whether it’s raining, your venue is dark, or the dance floor is chaos, I can make it look cinematic without it feeling staged.
