About
Welcome! I am a Metro Detroit-based photographer dedicated to capturing authentic love stories with a focus on inclusivity. I believe every couple deserves to feel seen, safe, and celebrated on their wedding day. Specializing in both traditional and LGBTQIA+ weddings, I bring a calm, joyful energy to every celebration I document.
Whether you are planning a grand ballroom gala in the city or an intimate queer-centered elopement on Belle Isle, my goal is to provide a safe space where your true selves can shine. I combine a lifestyle approach with classic storytelling to ensure your gallery feels timeless, genuine, and uniquely yours. Serving all of Southeast Michigan, I can’t wait to help you document your legacy and celebrate your unique love story!
What sets my work apart is the intentional balance of high-end artistry and radical inclusivity. I don’t just show up to take photos; I show up to ensure you feel entirely safe and celebrated in front of my lens. While I’m an expert at navigating traditional Metro Detroit weddings, I am deeply committed to the LGBTQIA+ community, offering gender-affirming posing and a safe space for every identity. I prioritize your comfort over stiff perfection, capturing the candid, unscripted joy that happens when you feel truly seen. Your love isn't a trend—it's your legacy.
