About
In a world where over 5 billion photos are taken daily and Dallas boasts thousands of photographers, why choose me?
When I pick up a camera, I'm on a quest for the unexpected. With hundreds of weddings captured, my focus is on people and emotions, aiming to preserve genuine moments without causing a disturbance.
My approach is that of a photojournalist and artist, envisioning each event as a historic milestone for your family. These images are more than snapshots; they're a testament to love, your love.
I don't rely on flashy pitches or social media trends. As a father of two, married to my childhood sweetheart, I've experienced the depth of love. I enter your life as a guest, respecting your family and celebrating alongside you. Weddings are a beautiful chapter in my 18-year career as a witness to life.
Thank you for considering my work, and congratulations on embarking on this new adventure together.
PERSONALITY
As a photographer and an empathetic individual, many recognize me for my commitment to ensuring that couples and clients not only enjoy their time with me but also have a memorable experience during the events they host. Recognizing that being photographed can be somewhat intimidating, especially amidst the complexities of an event, I've been acknowledged for my ability to bring a positive light to alleviate stress.
In my role as a news photographer, stress has never been a hindrance; in fact, I thrive in challenging situations. I actively seek opportunities that take me beyond my comfort zone, allowing me to engage with diverse communities. I firmly believe that capturing an image is a straightforward aspect; the true art lies in creating an environment where individuals feel comfortable opening up and expressing their authentic selves in front of the camera.
EXPERIENCE
I have immersed myself in the art of photography through a contemporary and non-traditional approach. My education includes studying the works of photography greats through books and gaining practical experience by assisting prominent figures in the industry. My journey in this career began long before I ventured out of my mother's house.
At the age of eighteen, I successfully photographed a significant campaign for Blink-182 Drummer Travis Barker's clothing line. The resulting images adorned various locations in Hollywood, CA. As I matured, my fascination shifted towards Photojournalism, prompting me to not only capture images but to explore the world through the lens and be on the frontlines of historic events.
Weddings have consistently been my anchor, providing me the opportunity to express my photographic vision and offering the stability to fulfill roles as a husband and father of two.
EDITING
In the realm of editing, I do engage in the enhancement of my photographs; however, my primary focus, as a photojournalist, lies in the artistry behind the camera. The editing process involves a meticulous selection of images that authentically represent the people and events captured. I dedicate attention to retouching elements such as color, highlights, and shadows to refine the visual narrative.
My goal is to create images that transcend mere aesthetics; I strive to convey a message and evoke genuine emotions. The editing process, for me, is a means to enhance the storytelling aspect of each photograph.
DELIVERY
I offer three distinctive methods for delivering photos to my clients. The first method is through a secure online gallery, providing convenient access to all images from any device. This digital album not only allows you to effortlessly browse through your photos but also facilitates easy sharing with friends and family.
For my wedding clients, I present a personalized touch with my signature delivery box. This carefully crafted box includes a selection of prints, two USB drives containing both edited and unedited images, and a heartfelt note. My intention is to provide a tangible keepsake rather than a simple link.
The third option involves the creation of a book. I take great pleasure in curating books and bringing my work to life in print. Including a book as part of the service is my way of encouraging American families to revive the tradition of printing and cherishing their cherished photos once again.
