I enter every wedding day full of excitement, bringing my enthusiasm and expertise to make sure you feel at ease. Part of a photographer’s job is to make their subject feel comfortable in front of the camera. This has always been easy for me – I love the people I photograph and believe in renowned photojournalist Alfred Eisenstaedt’s words, “It is more important to click with people than to click the shutter.” I try to radiate positivity during every shoot, knowing my attitude can be reflected in my subjects. That being said, for a large part of weddings I go unnoticed, quietly searching for the fleeting moments that I know you’ll want to look back on forever. This is your day, and I am there to document it. To make sure that you end up with photographs that serve to bring back these wonderful memories for years to come. After all, wedding photos are often those that are passed on through generations. Keeping this in mind, I strive to take photos that will withstand the test of time, hundreds of small works of art that can stand alone, or be pieced together into the story of a beautiful day filled with love.

For me, nothing beats the rush that I get while shooting a wedding, except maybe the response clients have for the photos afterward. Every wedding I photograph is an honor. I make sure to capture all of your friends and loved ones, the beautiful moments, the powerful emotions, and the obvious and not-so-obvious details to tell the timeless story of your wedding day.
