I'm a wedding photographer based in Murphy, NC. I've photographed weddings from south Florida to Chicago and in the mountains of Mexico, but most of my work is right here in the mountains of Western North Carolina, North Georgia and East Tennessee: McGuire's Millrace Farm, the Highland Keep, Hawkesdene, Old Edwards Inn, Lake Lure Inn, Brasstown Valley Resort, and plenty of farms and backyards in between.

I'll talk with you first. Before the first frame, I'll know which side you favor, what you'd love to see in your photos (and what you don't), and which parts of the day matter most to you. My dad jokes are epic. On the day, I keep an eye on the light, the weather and the timeline so you can relax and enjoy it.

I build most packages around each couple, because no two weddings need the same thing. Hourly coverage starts at $1,200, and most couples spend around $3,500.

What do I think is important? Love. It sounds cheesy, but love is the best thing about humanity, and when you look close enough it's at the root of nearly all of our greatest accomplishments. So I choose to celebrate love in its many forms: overt or subtle, corny, sweet, abiding, and ephemeral. That is the core of my photography, and I try to keep it at the core of who I am as a person.

Everything else is just logistics.
