“I believe that creativity is something you are, not only something you do. It's a way of moving through the world, every minute, every day. It’s a constant lifelong commitment to remaining open to the world around you and choosing to be in awe of its' smallest moments.”
To me, documentary style photography doesn’t mean that I'll just be a fly on the wall, invisible and unseen. Quite the opposite actually. I want to be involved and immersed in your wedding experience. At my core I am a people-person, I want to get to know your bridal party, your parents, your personalities and your people. What a beautiful experience it is weaving all of these lives together on a wedding day.
My approach to wedding photography is providing guidance when needed, constantly observing and leaning into moments as I see them naturally unfolding. Your wedding day won’t feel like a photoshoot, but you’ll walk away with a perfect blend of artistically posed photographs and candid natural moments. After 7 years of photographing wedding days, I have a sharp intuition to anticipate meaningful moments and capture them artistically so you can focus on being fully present.
DOCUMENTING LIFE AS IT BEAUTIFULLY UNFOLDS.
